The History of the Hotel
La Lucertola
Opened in the early 1970s and extensively renovated in 2006, Hotel La Lucertola now welcomes guests into a unique atmosphere where the charm of the past meets modern standards of comfort. The hotel offers several room categories, each conceived as a private space suspended between the rock and the sea of Vietri. The original 1970s character lives on through a contemporary aesthetic that celebrates natural light. Every furnishing choice pays tribute to an evolving story, combining noble materials and clean lines in a balanced design that never abandons its historic identity. Beyond aesthetics, the hotel embraces an advanced vision of hospitality, where architectural attention to detail meets technological innovation to create safe, soundproofed spaces in harmony with the extraordinary Amalfi Coast landscape. Staying here means enjoying an experience rooted in memory, surrounded by the understated luxury of modernity.
Beyond the traditional idea of comfort, safety, biocompatibility and energy efficiency are central pillars of our hospitality philosophy. We firmly believe that genuine wellbeing must include respect for the ecosystem and protection of our guests’ health. This commitment is reflected in tangible choices: from biocompatible materials that support better indoor air and environmental quality to advanced energy-efficiency technologies designed to reduce the hotel’s environmental footprint. These concrete measures provide our guests with a safe and protected retreat. Choosing Hotel La Lucertola means embracing an ethical approach to every aspect of your stay, where the beauty of Vietri sul Mare meets responsible management that helps preserve the integrity of the local area.
Located in the heart of Vietri sul Mare, the historic fishing village known worldwide for its handcrafted ceramics, Hotel La Lucertola enjoys a truly privileged setting. The first jewel encountered along the Amalfi Coast, Vietri is a destination of timeless charm. Our hotel is an exceptional starting point for discovering the beauty of the surrounding area. Staying at Hotel La Lucertola gives you the privilege of exploring the entire Amalfi Coast by day, before returning at sunset to the tranquillity of an authentic village, where ceramic art and the scent of the sea create an unforgettable sensory experience.
