Central apartment in a historic villa in the heart of Anacapri with a pool.

Two-bedroom apartment in a historic villa, featuring two full bathrooms with showers, a bright, fully equipped kitchen, a living room with a fireplace, and a dining room. Outdoor pool on a spacious panoramic terrace with a view of the sea. A recently renovated historic Mediterranean-style villa, featuring bathrooms and a kitchen adorned with refined hand-painted majolica tiles, pathways paved with Mediterranean terracotta, and accents of historic Neapolitan majolica that enhance the arches and outdoor spaces. A covered patio with an 8-person table for your summer dinners in the cool shade of the villa’s porticoes. The house was once the residence of the philosopher Benedetto Croce. Built in the early 1900s in authentic Capri Mediterranean style, with cross vaults, round arches, and open porticos, the villa—thanks to philosopher Croce’s residence there—became a gathering place for artists, intellectuals, painters, writers, and poets of the early 20th century. In this corner of Anacapri, many chose to make it their exclusive retreat—including Mario Soldati, Alberto Moravia, and, in particular, the famous British writer Graham Greene, who used it as a place of seclusion to create his world-renowned literary works. A corner of Anacapri sheltered from the winds, bathed in the sunlight of marvellous sunsets—a very peaceful and quiet location, yet at the same time right in the heart of town. Nearby, restaurants, bars, bakeries, supermarkets, delis, and small shops enliven the typical Caprile area, rich in narrow, winding alleys that wind through white houses and colonnades adorned with bougainvillea and fragrant jasmine. Bus stops are just a stone’s throw from the house, providing access to all the island’s beaches—from the lighthouse to the Blue Grotto, Marina Piccola, and Marina Grande. A bus stop for the Capri town centre is located 200 metres from the Villa. Guests have free access to the pool at the 4-star Hotel San Michele, which is managed by the same company as Villa Croce, as well as the B&B Il Sogno and Villa Donna Carolina. Your free pool access includes a lounge chair, a beach umbrella, and a beach towel. Guests can enjoy lunch and dinner at the Hotel San Michele—lunch by the pool and dinner on the panoramic terrace of the La Lanterna Verde restaurant, which offers a superb view of the Gulf of Naples and Capri town. Villa Croce guests will receive the highest level of assistance during their stay, including complimentary transfers upon arrival and departure to and from the port of Capri; boat tours around the island; high-speed motorboat transfers—even at night—to Sorrento and Naples, whether arriving or departing; Cooking classes are available upon request, as well as wine tastings, tours of wineries on Capri and around Vesuvius, assistance with restaurant reservations, guided tours, and island excursions. Babysitting, a cook, and a housekeeper for daily housekeeping are available upon request.
