The location is gorgeous! The views were spectacular and small town is walkable from the home. St Agata was a great place for food, grocery and setting up our tour of Amalfi. We enjoyed our stay here and the outdoor space was perfect for a large group. Thank you for hosting us!

Casa Gaia, from where we've enjoyed the most superb view over the Bay of Naples and the Vesuvius, is a truly enchanting place.
The house is very generously equipped- from plentiful seats, tables, deckchairs, towels and kitchen equipment•••
The manager, Michele Maresca,
made our stay a most pleasant experience- competent, reactive and helpful, all of which made our vacation so utterly enjoyable!!!

The villa was absolutely perfect for our 5 night stay in the sorrento area! Michele was an absolute perfect host & helpful with all of our transfers & excursion planning. The little town of Sant Agata is wonderful with some great restaurants! It’s a short walk. Highly recommend!

A week with 3 generations under one roof was perfect. The host Michele is a chef so prepared us a pizza night that was delicious and so much food we had leftovers for 5 adults the next day. Michele brought us fresh tomatoes and eggs from the onsite garden and chickens. There’s a great view of the sea. The veranda is gated which was ideal with a 3 year old and 1 year old. A short walk into the village and an easy drive for day trips around the Amalfi Coast. Highly recommend this villa for a group. So much outdoor seating and plenty of shade. The A/C units worked great for us Americans ;)

The villa is tucked away on the hills, but easily accessible by bus. We loved the views of the bay, Mount Vesuvius, and the fog rolling in each morning. The patio space was a great feature, especially for the seven of us (4 adults, 3 teens/pre-teens) to hang out and have meals. We also put all that energy to use walking the pedestrian paths to Sorrento and Sant Agata.

Graziana was the perfect hostess and her home was a lovely haven. We loved our stay - from the beautiful property to the amazing cooking lesson to the lifelong friendship we now have with Graziana. We are already making plans for our next visit. The whole experience was priceless. Grazie Graziana!

Graziana's hospitality and special home are unsurpassed. We were a group of 10 musicians, teens and adults, and had a most memorable stay! We will never forget our beautiful stay and your beautiful baked goods to feed our vegans! Bruce was the icing on the cake! Thank you again!

The Villa is superbly located in a quiet area of Sorrento yet close enough to walk to local villages and into the town of Sorrento itself. Buses were very affordable and frequent which made going on tours from Sorrento easy. We visited Capri, the Amalfi coast, Pompeii and Herculaneum and took part in limoncello making which was organised by Michele the host who also cooked pizza for us and arranged our transfers from and to the airport. This is an excellent Villa and location for exploring this area of Italy which was made even more special due to the hospitality and ease of contact with the host. Would highly recommend a stay here.

We planned a trip for our 50th anniversary with family and this villa far exceeded our expectations from the views and the space for large gatherings.
Michele the host was there for us whenever we called on him for advice for anything we needed for this trip. He even made a meal for all of us in the wood fired oven.
We will definitely plan on this villa for our future trips to Italy,

Michele was a terrific host. He assisted with transportation and suggestions for restaurants. As an added bonus he cooked us the best homemade pizza in the brick oven at the patio. The property is located close to great neighborhood of Sant’agata, which is about a 10 minute walk from the Villa. It has several nice restaurants and cafes. There is a panoramic view of Sorrento from the villas patio and pool area. The house was spacious for 4 adults and clean. Would definitely recommend this property!

This was a great place to stay to access the best of the Amalfi Coast. It is an easy walk to restaurants and shops in St Agata and that is a great little non-touristy town. To go to Sorrento or Capri or Positano I would arrange a car ahead of time because it is a bit of a trek but worth it. Michele will help you with that -- and definitely take him up on the offer to cook pizza for you and your family at the villa. That was a highlight for sure! He even makes his own wine and limoncello.

As a group of six , we had a lovely stay . We were greeted on arrival by our host, Michele. He gave us a tour of the property and contact info . He had arranged for pick up from the train station and our driver was lovely .We booked him for our return trip .
There is plenty of space indoors and outdoors . The pool was a nice bonus for the hot August heat .
There is a footpath right next to the house which brings you directly into the village . Highly recommended Orlando’s and Wine Bar which is just a short walk at the end of the path .
Michele hosted a pizza night for us with his lovely wife ….best pizza ever !!!
The fresh tomatoes and plums from their garden and an overly bottle of wine were waiting for us on arrival were delicious.
For a larger travel group , this is definitely a place to consider .
Thank you so much for an amazing 5 day stay !

We had a wonderful time at Casa Gaia and the layout for our family was absolutely perfect. My husband and i had the room that adjouns to the bedroom with two twin beds for our kids while his parents took the master suite one level above us and our aunt who doesnt do well with stairs, took the ground floor living room sofa bed. We dismt need a livong room as we spent all our time outside in the lovely space there. The kids used the pool everyday when we got back from touring and the town of Sant Agata was so quaint. It was a real escape from the craziness of crowds in Sorrento and the Amalfi coast. Michele was a host like I have never experienced with a VRBO rental. Always there, always available and booked all our tours for us. It was an amazing time we hope to repeat with friends soon.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Casa Gaia and the wonderful hospitality of Michele who was super responsive and helpful. The home was well laid out, clean, and had lots of outdoor space to enjoy when the weather was good. The beds were comfortable and the three bathrooms a nice touch. It's a short walk up to the village which has nice restaurants and grocery shops. We weren't provided access to the pool house which has the sauna and soaker tub, so that part of the listing may need to be updated. But overall, we loved the place. If you don't have a car, getting to/from town can add up as it was around 50 euros each way by taxi. A price we were happy to pay to be out of the hustle and bustle of the city and to enjoy the surrounding nature. Staying at Casa Gaia was a high point of our trip for sure!

We were a group of 5 adults 50 - 70 age group.
1.The pictures for this property are very deceiving. The Home is beautiful but is in bad need of updating.
2.There was a damp musty smell in the home.
3.The pool area (which did not affect us as we did not use it- but we walked on it to take pictures of the excellent views) a lot of the surrounding deck and railings were rotted and in my opinion were an accident waiting to happen. One of the patio chairs was rotted and broke when my husband sat on it.
4.Communication with owner was excellent however but this property was not something that I would want to spend a week in.
5.The towels supplied were dreadful.
6. Location wise was good.
Overall if the property was updated, I would most likely recommend.

I love the coast and have been there several times, last summer we rented Casa Gaia for a week, it was a perfect holiday! The villa is comfortable and convenient, I found useful the pool, in the evening after touring it was so nice cool off in the pool with a drink and watching the beautiful scenery that the villa offers from every angle. Graziana The owner was very kind, always willing to recommend new places to visit, she lives in a house nearby but completely independent. We also enjoyed the BBQ and outdoor kitchen which we used almost every night, Graziana recommended a great butcher! We also enjoyed the quietness of the area, you sleep well without any traffic noise or crowds, the villa is located on a private road where they spend only residents' cars but it is very close to St. Agatha a country where we did pretty many walks especially to eat ice cream! In short, I would recommend this villa to everyone.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our stay. Our host was so very welcoming. He provided information both about the area and about the lovely villa. He had answers or help for any and all questions I had, he even welcomed us with delicious local fruit and delicacies of the region. The property itself, the listing does not do it justice. It’s spacious, has an amazing view of everything below, and was plenty of room for our large group. The outside area for entertaining is amazing, we’re the weather warmer during our stay I don’t think I ever would’ve come inside. To boot, we liked the property itself so much we picked it as the location to perform our wedding ceremony we came to the country for. Additionally it is close to sorrento, as well as has a beautiful path to the town of Santa Agata. As I’ve said multiple times, I can’t say enough good things about our stay and we most assuredly will be back

Very easy to carry out the rental process through the website.
Michele is an absolute pleasure to deal with, as well as being a true gentleman nothing at all is too much or too little trouble for him.
His Pizza making skills are truely extraordinary and his knowledge of the local Red wine is well worth a conversation.
The Villa itself is well kept, clean and within walking distance (10 mins) to local village up what could be contrived as a quite a steep slope, take your time and you do get there !
The Villa has everything you require, cooker,fridge,dishwasher, washing machine, iron etc .Nothing is missing.
Would I go back, yes in an instant, one of the most relaxing ,enjoyable Villa stays I have taken.
Congratulations Michele.

Unfortunately, the weather was horrible and rained all the time during our stay. This fact was frustrating but certainly not the fault of the beautiful house which is in a beautiful location. We enjoyed the walk up the path to St Agata for dinner, drinks, shopping and church. Two facts that should be more clear when booking this house is that the second and third bedrooms are separated only by a sliding door and the bathroom is only accessible to one of the rooms. The other bathroom is downstairs. If you expect, as we did, three bedrooms with a bathroom for each, this is not the house. Other than that, this house offers a wonderful experience.

I stayed at Casa Gaia Sorrento with five of my friends for four nights. We found the house to be perfect for our group. The property is gorgeous and the pool was perfect to relax by and enjoy some wine and food. We loved how big the outdoor space was and ended up spending most of our time outside on the patio and by the pool. Even though the location was about a 18 minute drive from the Sorrento town center, we really enjoyed being away from Sorrento because it was nice and peaceful. Michele was a great host and very attentive and answered all my questions via WhatsApp.
There are a few things that we would strongly encourage Michele to address. The first is the WiFi, I think there needs to be better WiFi coverage in the house on the upper levels especially. The second is the hot water, there was no hot water in the primary bathroom on the top level. I waited 15 minutes for the water to warm up and it never did so I had to either use another bathroom or take a cold shower. Last is the ants that were in the double bedroom. My friend woke up covered in ants and had ants in his suitcase. The ants were a big problem for us and this needs to be addressed immediately. If someone was allergic to ants and got bit, that would be a big problem.
All in all, the house was great and we really enjoyed our stay there! Thank you Michele for being a great host!

The house itself was set up perfectly for our 2 families that stayed here. We loved spending our time outside at the pool and dining al fresco. The air conditioning in the rooms worked great and were much appreciated during the heatwave Italy was having. It is a 10 min walk to Sant’Agata and it has everything you need! Bar Orlando was one of our favorite places to eat. The food and drinks were great and a good price. Fiorentino had great pasteries and the gelato shop in town was delicious!
If you want a true Italian village vacation, this house is perfect. Warning though, if you plan on going to Sorrento a lot to get to other places and do not have a car, it will cost you. It was summer travel season, but the 15 minute taxi ride up the hill to the house from Sorrento was 60-80 Euros each way. The host, was great at booking a driver to take us places and they had the best price (60 Euros). When we would find a taxi to bring us back they would charge (70-80 Euros). We would have asked the host to get us his driver to bring us home, but we were never sure of the time we would return. The good thing is that the taxi were large and able to bring all 8 of us in one in 1 trip. Not sure if you had a car how easy parking would be around town or how much it would cost.
We would definitely come back and just stay at the house and walk to Sant’Agata for everything.
