Hotel Due Torre: Maiori (The Amalfi Coast)

We have stayed in several different places along the Amalfi Coast, and this hotel—located right along the famous Amalfi Road in the town of Maiori—has consistently been one of our favorites. It offers excellent service, great value (even during the busiest summer months), and a convenient location for exploring the coast.

As a family of four, we especially appreciate that they offer an adjacent residence with larger, apartment-style accommodations at a very reasonable price. The apartments include a fully equipped kitchen, which allows us to prepare some of our own meals and gives us the extra space and flexibility we need when traveling as a family. The downside is that some hotel amenities, such as complimentary access to the rooftop pool and breakfast, are not included with the apartment stay. However, these services can be added for an additional fee, although we personally prefer having the option to cook and enjoy meals at our own pace.

I always request a sea-view apartment, and I highly recommend it. Waking up to the incredible views of the Mediterranean and the Amalfi Coast is absolutely worth it. The property also offers valet parking for an additional fee, a shuttle service into town, and a fantastic rooftop restaurant with some of the most spectacular views along the entire coastline.

The only downside I have found during our stays is the towels. They are more like thin sheets than traditional towels, and I find that they don't absorb water very well and take a long time to dry. For that reason, we always bring our own towels from home.

Overall, this hotel has been one of our go-to choices on the Amalfi Coast because of its unbeatable combination of location, comfort, value, and family-friendly accommodations.

About Me

Life has taken me on quite the journey—from growing up in the same house, attending the same school, and living in the same city of Bogotá, Colombia for 18 years, to leaping into the unknown by moving abroad for college. That bold decision pushed me far beyond my comfort zone: I had to learn a new language, adapt to a different culture, and build a new life from scratch.

It was during college that I met my husband. After six years of dating, we got married—and the very next day, he joined the U.S. Air Force. That marked another major shift in my life. With his military career, we began moving every few years to new places—often not by choice, but always with an open heart.

We lived in four different U.S. states before receiving an overseas assignment in 2015 to Spain. What was meant to be a two-year stay quickly turned into a life-changing adventure: seven years in Spain, followed by six more in Italy. Along the way, I picked up a third language, fell deeper in love with European culture, and embraced every opportunity to explore new corners of the world.

To date, I’ve lived in four countries—Colombia, the United States, Spain, and Italy—and visited over 40. Through it all, I’ve discovered a deep love for travel, for learning from other cultures, and for seeing the world through my children’s eyes. We have two little adventurers who are just as curious and eager to explore as we are.

This blog is a space to share our journey—especially what it’s like to live and travel in Europe as a military family. Whether you're planning your next big trip, relocating overseas, or simply dreaming of faraway places, I hope you’ll find inspiration, insight, and encouragement here.

Feel free to reach out with questions or just to say hello—I’d love to connect with you!
