J.K. Place Capri

J.K. Place Capri exemplifies everything that discriminating guests expect from an island getaway. The lineage of this splendid property overlooking the azure waters of the Bay of Naples is long and fabled, with more twists and turns than a mystery novel. Suffice it to say that this former private home built in the late nineteenth century has a history of offering visitors gracious hospitality. In 2007 it was fully renovated by art, hotel, and publishing entrepreneur Ori Kafri, and interior designer Michele Bonan. The result is decidedly hip and well heeled, with beautifully appointed rooms (including two penthouse suites), a luxury SPA with a range of treatments designed to harmonize the mind and body, and a vibrant social scene at afternoon tea or evening cocktails. As for dining, whether soaking in the sophisticated ambiance inside or out on the panoramic terrace with views across the bay to Mount Vesuvius shimmering in the distance, there is no better way to start—or end—the day than with a delicious breakfast, lunch, or dinner at the charming JKitchen.
