Staying in Sant'Agnello near Sorrento
Sant'Agnello has two useful reference points: the railway station inland and the cliff edge around La Marinella. An address near one is not necessarily close to the other. Look at the full walking route before booking, particularly if your plans combine beach visits with train trips. The descent to the shore is separate from the walk through town.

What is near Sant'Agnello
Piazza Matteotti

Eating in Sant'Agnello
Around the inland streets, look for bakeries, pizza places and small restaurants that fit around a day out. Near the cliff, check whether a terrace belongs to a hotel and accepts outside diners. If you want dinner after returning by train, compare kitchen hours with your expected arrival rather than assuming every place serves late.
