Jumeirah Capri Palace - Luxury hotel in Capri, Italy

A Legendary Location Overlooking the Mediterranean

Set in Anacapri, the quieter and more authentic side of the island, Jumeirah Capri Palace enjoys a privileged position overlooking the Bay of Naples, with breathtaking views stretching toward Mount Vesuvius, Ischia, and the endless blue horizon. Away from the lively atmosphere of Capri town, the hotel offers a more peaceful interpretation of island life, surrounded by Mediterranean gardens, fragrant citrus trees, and the extraordinary landscapes that have made Capri an icon of Italian luxury. The hotel’s elevated setting creates a unique connection with nature, where guests can spend their days between panoramic terraces, hidden gardens, and the shimmering waters of the Mediterranean. From sunrise views over the bay to golden evenings beneath the Capri sky, every moment reflects the effortless beauty of the island.

A Historic Retreat Reimagined by Jumeirah

Originally opened in 1960 by visionary entrepreneur Tonino Cacace, Capri Palace has long been considered one of Italy’s most distinctive luxury hotels. Built around a passion for art, hospitality, and Mediterranean culture, the property became renowned for its impressive contemporary art collection, elegant atmosphere, and exceptional service. Today, as part of the Jumeirah portfolio, Jumeirah Capri Palace enters a new chapter while preserving the soul that made it legendary. The recent transformation celebrates the hotel’s heritage while introducing a more contemporary expression of Capri, combining Italian craftsmanship, modern design, and the relaxed sophistication of island living. The renewed vision brings together decades of hospitality expertise with a fresh approach to luxury, creating a destination where art, architecture, wellness, and gastronomy exist in harmony.

A New Design Vision by Patricia Urquiola

The latest evolution of Jumeirah Capri Palace introduces a new design language created by internationally acclaimed architect and designer Patricia Urquiola. Known for her ability to combine contemporary creativity with cultural references, Urquiola has reinterpreted the spirit of Capri through a refined palette of natural materials, artisanal details, and Mediterranean influences. The renovated spaces draw inspiration from the island’s landscapes, from its dramatic cliffs and deep blue waters to its warm sunsets and traditional craftsmanship. Soft terracotta tones, Mediterranean blues, textured surfaces, and organic shapes create interiors that feel both modern and deeply connected to their surroundings. Traditional Italian materials have been carefully incorporated throughout the design, including handcrafted Vietri ceramics, Palladian-inspired flooring, and Cimento finishes reminiscent of the movement of the sea. The result is an elegant balance between contemporary design and Capri’s unmistakable identity.

Refined Rooms and Suites Inspired by Island Living

Jumeirah Capri Palace offers a collection of elegant rooms and suites designed as serene Mediterranean retreats. The recent renovation introduces a new generation of accommodations, including five newly redesigned suites created by Patricia Urquiola, further enhancing the connection between indoor spaces and the island’s natural beauty. The new suites feature generous layouts, private outdoor spaces, and panoramic views over the Bay of Naples. Their interiors combine handcrafted details, natural textures, and calming colors inspired by Capri’s landscape. Each space reflects a sense of effortless luxury, where contemporary furniture meets traditional Italian craftsmanship. Throughout the hotel, the design celebrates light, comfort, and authenticity. Soft fabrics, sculptural furniture, artisanal ceramics, and carefully selected artworks create a residential atmosphere that feels sophisticated yet welcoming, offering guests a true Capri sanctuary.

Michelin Starred Dining Celebrating Italian Flavors

Dining at Jumeirah Capri Palace is an essential part of the experience, with culinary destinations that celebrate the finest ingredients of Italy and the Mediterranean. The hotel is home to L’Olivo, its signature two Michelin starred restaurant, where refined Italian cuisine is presented through elegant and creative interpretations.

Awarded one Michelin star, the restaurant celebrates the flavors of the sea with fresh seafood, local ingredients, and unforgettable views. From sophisticated dinners to relaxed lunches by the water, every culinary experience reflects the essence of Capri: authentic, generous, and deeply connected to the island’s traditions.

A Mediterranean Wellness Escape and Reimagined Outdoor Spaces

Guests can enjoy a range of treatments designed to restore balance, including massages, facials, and body therapies within a peaceful Mediterranean setting. The wellness experience is complemented by the hotel’s connection to nature, with gardens, outdoor spaces, and tranquil areas designed for relaxation.
