In my opinion, next to Stresa and the Borromean Islands, the Amalfi coast is the nicest place to visit in Italy. It gets pretty crowded in during the summer months. We flew into Rome and picked up a rental car and drove to Naples where we stayed three nights and then drove down to the Amalfi. We stayed two nights at Hotel La Bussola in Amalfi. Driving in Naples can be challenging but something everyone should experience. Red lights are a considered a suggestion to stop. Other than some traffic in the villages, driving in Italy is pretty easy. There is a lot to see around Naples (Vesuvius, Pompeii, Pozzuoli) and Amalfi and having a car is much more convenient.
