Italy Two Centre Holidays - Capri & Ischia

Make like a movie star and island hop to Capri and Ischia for glamour and a slice of island paradise off the Amalfi Coast. Since Roman times, when the Emperor Tiberius ruled his empire from his Caprese Villa, the rich and famous have flocked to Capri to lounge in its magical surroundings; sheer cliffs plunging to foam covered rocks, the luminous caverns of the Blue Grotto, and fragrant pockets of tropical flowers. Capri still plays host to scores of day-trippers in the summer months, but those who choose to stay can enjoy a more exclusive view of the island when the sun sets. The odd celebrity can be spotted posing in the chic bars or browsing the exclusive boutiques of the La Piazzeta, Capri Town’s main square, but the harbour is where you’ll find the catch of the day elegantly served in exquisite fish restaurants.

The mountainous sprawl of Ischia may lack the celebrity sightings of its more glamorous and busy neighbour, but it more than makes up for it as an exclusive, all-natural spa resort. The evocative island landscape of long sandy beaches, lush woodland and sun-baked vineyards provides the setting for the ultimate indulgent retreat, where visitors can relax in the thermal springs and mud baths, visit the Aragonese Castle or hike up to Mount Epomeo for breathtaking vistas of the terrain below.
