Oscar-worthy bachelorette party - Applause and compliments to the structure. I attended a hen party in this dream place, we were welcomed in the best possible way, with attention to the smallest details, sublime food, an explosion of flavors with every bite. The experience with clay was unique and exciting, the owner of a unique delicacy and kindness, a breathtaking view. Absolutely highly recommended!

Great fun, with amazing people - Ornella and her daughter were the perfect experience hosts. I had an absolute blast learning different approaches of ceramic making, and I was extremely happy with the results! On top of that Cilento was a super peaceful pearl of a place, hiding a lot of great street art that Ornella was lovely enough to show me after our lunch break. Lunch was also great, consisting of pasta with homemade tomato sauce and fresh basil leaves. I just cannot reccomend this experience enough!
