(PRESS RELEASE) HAMILTON, Bermuda, 2025-Apr-7 — /Travel PR News/ — La Piscina, A Caruso Pool Club has officially opened as the first private luxury pool club on the Amalfi Coast, redefining poolside leisure with an exclusive day-to-night program of experiences and events. Set against a breathtaking backdrop where sea meets sky, the club launches at Caruso, A Belmond Hotel, featuring a newly restyled infinity pool that offers sweeping views of the coastline and a sophisticated design that marries modern architecture with the hotel’s original 11th-century palatial décor. Guests can indulge in brand-new private cabanas designed for families and friends, along with an enticing schedule of wellness and gastronomic experiences centered around the concept of ozio creativo.
Embracing the Italian spirit of Villeggiatura—the celebration of the endless Italian summer vacation—La Piscina invites guests to disconnect from the hustle of everyday life and embrace a slower, more mindful pace. Its programming spans from invigorating sunrise yoga sessions and sight-jogging around Ravello with personal trainers, to creative workshops including painting, pasta, and limoncello-making classes. Guests may also enjoy guided tours of Caruso’s pristine Mediterranean terraced gardens. As the day unfolds, visitors can relax with locally crafted cocktails on sunbeds, explore hidden coves and rugged caves on boat tours, and end the day stargazing under the guidance of an astronomy expert, attending monthly cinema nights at Ravello’s highest peak, or taking a moonlit midnight swim.
Upon arrival, guests are welcomed with an exclusive La Piscina Essentials kit featuring Amalfi lemon-infused water, premium sunscreen, Belmond’s annual in-house Mondes magazine, and a selection of delightful foodie surprises throughout the day. For those seeking additional poolside entertainment, Belmond offers a special edition Monopoly game that immerses guests in an Italian portfolio, or they can opt for a classic round of backgammon.
Redefining poolside luxury, La Piscina introduces two new private cabanas that pay homage to La Dolce Vita. Each cabana, accommodating up to two guests, is available for all-day use and provides unrivaled views of the Tyrrhenian Sea. They are designed for relaxation or spa treatments, surrounded by the fragrant aromas of blossoms, pines, and lemon trees. These exclusive cabanas include a welcome glass of local sparkling wine, a fresh fruit selection, dedicated butler service, credit for lunch at the Caruso Grill and Pool Bar, and access to bespoke amenities.
La Dieta Mediterranea, the art of Mediterranean cuisine, takes center stage at both La Piscina and Caruso’s outdoor terrace at Ristorante Belvedere. Executive Chef Armando Aristarco’s creations draw inspiration from local ingredients along the Amalfi and Cilento coasts. At the Caruso Grill, the menu is enriched by complimentary pizza, pasta, and limoncello-making classes, celebrating beloved Neapolitan classics. The summer season will kick off special events with Ditirambo nights on 11 June, 2 July, and 9 August 2025—an homage to Greek traditions where local producers take over the grill and pool club, showcasing their crafts and celebrating La Dieta Mediterranea with live orchestral percussion and dancing. Additionally, monthly bartending nights will culminate in midnight “spaghettata” feasts, where guests come together for a family-style pasta dinner.
In a celebration of Campanian craftsmanship, La Piscina collaborates with local artisans to reinterpret classic design elements. Livio de Simone’s studio, famed for its hand-painted fabrics and vibrant patterns, has contributed bespoke cushion covers and ceramics that infuse the setting with vibrant layers, harmonizing with the classic terracotta tones and the hues of orange, brown, and cream found on the sun loungers and umbrellas.
La Piscina welcomes guests and visitors daily from 27 March until the hotel’s closure on 26 October. For Caruso guests, complimentary sunbeds and umbrellas are included with the room rate, while the new two-person private cabanas are available at a daily rate of EUR 220.00, VAT included. Visitors can enjoy private pool access, subject to availability, starting from EUR 330.00—which includes two sunbeds, a pool umbrella, towels, daily amenities, WiFi, and digital publications—with cabanas for visitors starting from EUR 880.00, which includes a welcome glass of local sparkling wine, fresh fruit, a spa ritual, and special hotel offerings.
