Hi everyone,i am currently in Italy

Hi Marisa, Do you mind if beach is rocky- it is on the Amalfi Coast.  There is a family B & B Pellegrino in Praiano. Lovely place, lovely family- gourmet chef. . Then drive or bus the coast to Ravello and the Villa Cimbrone- Famous - Winston Churchill & other dignitaries stayed there in its heyday.  They have restored hotel and it is lovely. This will be on your way to Salerno. There is also the Villa Maria hotel also beautiful.  Enjoy, I just got back from France & Italy- ready to go back. 

I can confirm that Praiano is lovely. We spent a week there about a year ago and we had a great time. It has kept a village atmosphere, something difficult to find on the Costiera Amalfitana, no matter how wonderful it is. Go there, you will not be disappointed.

I concur with the choice of B & B Pellegrino............ Have been going there since 1985......Salvatore, his Wife and Sandra , his Sister treat you like family.   Go !!!!
