La Magnolia B&B
The host Mauro responded within minutes of all communication I sent him. He speaks beautiful Italian and enunciates well. His English and that of his friend Silvia are sufficient for anyone who doesn't speak Italian. The property was clean; the beds were most comfortable; and the property quiet and private. The property is within walking distance of the Castellammare di Stabia train station but the first portion is on the road where there is no sidewalk or wide shoulder so one must walk against traffic. This wouldn't be good for children or the elderly so plan on taking your car into the train station and park in town. Mauro had ample parking for vehicles in the gated property and he offered us to fill a sack full of Sorrento lemons. I would stay here again, most certainly, if I return to this area of Sorrento.
Mauro's recommendation for the Holiday Pizzeria was a fantastic one. We did not order the pizza; however, we saw that there were trays and trays of them being consumed. Instead we ordered pasta and meat dishes and all were properly portioned and quite tasty. We requested that the waiter bring us 4 different Neapolitan desserts and we were pleasantly surprised. This restaurant is so much more than a pizzeria and the interior and covered garden area are inviting.
