The story
Perched on Via Tragara, Villa Brunella is a family-run Capri landmark since the 1960s, its terraced architecture cascading toward the sea. The hotel’s elegance and sweeping views create an atmosphere that feels both romantic and timeless—scenic in the truest sense.
Gambero Rosso highlighted the *Paccheri al ragù di totani e mandorle tostate* as a signature dish, pairing tender squid ragù with toasted almonds. It’s a meal that mirrors the setting: refined yet rooted in the island’s coastal character. For a taste of Capri’s quiet grandeur, this is a place to linger.
