Travel from Rome to Praiano to Ischia and back to Rome

My family and I are planning a trip end of June/beginning of July and after reviewing some websites and the posts on this forum site, I am very confused as to the most efficient way to travel from Rome to Praiano (train from Rome to Naples and then car service or train from Rome to Salerno and then car - or something entirely different?). We then travel to Ischia - ferry from Positano? Or do we go back to Naples and get ferry there ? On the way back I assume ferry from Ischia to Naples and then train to Rome where we will spend the night before our flight back to the States.

Also, on the ferry website it says Captain Morgan does not have luggage limits but when I go to their website they list the same limits. Any advice on this? I understand it’s in our interest to pack light with all of the movement….

Thank you in advance for any tips. JMo

Welcome to the forum!
Before getting too far into the weeds.... I'm thinking that you are limiting your transport options by staying in Praiano due to it not having ferry service. Unless you've already made non-refundable reservations and/or are planning on just staying put during your stay in Praiano, you might want to rethink that plan? I'm personally not sure I'd want to be limited to SITA buses and car services for getting around the region. How many people will you be needing to move from place to place?

Thank you. We are 4 - 2 adult children ages 25 and 22. We chose Praiano because we thought it would be a bit less crowded/crazy and the hotel was recommended to us. We typically stay in rentals, but decided on a hotel in this case. What would you recommend as an alternative in the event we can cancel?

Thank you again.
