Cities
Anacapri or Capri — which side to stay on
Same island, two very different villages. A short, honest comparison.
Which suits which trip
Capri town: short trip, want to be near the Piazzetta, willing to pay for it, like high-end shops. The funicular runs from the port; you don't need a car.
Anacapri: longer stay, want a quieter base, planning to hike Monte Solaro and the western coast. Bus to Capri town takes 15 minutes; restaurants are cheaper.
