AmalfiCoast Costiera Amalfitana

In Ravello, where art meets nature and silence speaks louder than words, a new chapter in the story of hospitality begins: "La Terrazza del Professore" opens its doors, the new restaurant at Hotel Villa Maria, a heartfelt and solemn tribute to Vincenzo Palumbo, visionary entrepreneur and true guardian of Ravello’s traditions.

The name of the restaurant is a statement of purpose in itself: a terrace overlooking the infinite — the green of the gardens and the blue of the sea — and, at the same time, a dedication to "Professor" Palumbo, a key figure in the Amalfi Coast’s hospitality scene, who brought together elegance, passion, and a deep connection to his land.

Carrying this new project forward are his sons, Francesco and Giuseppe, who with pride and affection have created a place that is not just a restaurant, but an experience — a story, an emotion. The menu celebrates garden-grown produce, seasonality, and the authentic flavors of Mediterranean cuisine, expressed with refinement but without pretension. Every dish is crafted to speak with the landscape and to honor memory.

"La Terrazza del Professore" is, above all, a place for the soul, where beauty becomes silence and memory transforms into the future. An unmissable destination in the City of Music, now enriched by a new gem that reflects identity and family love.

Hotel Villa Maria, a historic estate in the heart of Ravello, remains a landmark for those in search of genuine hospitality, suspended between dream and reality. With "La Terrazza del Professore", tradition is renewed with continuity — in the living memory of someone who turned hospitality into a true art form.
