Places to Stay
B&B Al Vicolo Cilento
One of the only places to stay in the historic center of the town of Felitto, the gateway to Cilento and the Vallo di Diano National Park. The area is a UNESCO World Heritage site which contains natural reserves and the ancient Greek town of Paestum. You can hike, bike and kayak.
Their B&B is awesome! Allesandro can arrange visits to the local attractions. While there you must dine at il Rustico. You can check out the B&B’s 107 Excellent and 1 Good reviews on Trip Advisor, but you won’t find any Average or Poor reviews!

Agriturismo Difesa Del Principe
This agriturismo is located in the rural area within view of the town of Felitto. The rooms were modern, clean and comfortable. You can just rent a room ($26/person) or enjoy a room with breakfast ($32/person) , half board ($56/person), or full board ($67/person). I recommend the bed and breakfast and dinner at il Rustico. You can enjoy lunch while you are exploring the region.
This is basically a B&B for Italians wanting to spend some time in the countryside. During our stay in 2016, basic Italian was needed to communicate with the owners. It is a working farm and we enjoyed a personal tour of the winery by the owner (in Italian).
La Roccia Casa Vacanze
I will be checking out this B&B in the town of Felitto on my first visit in 2023. I’ve chatted with the host, Carmine, and will have more details soon.
