Wonderful Retreat
This is the perfect place if you are looking for a ton of space in a great location with A LOT of privacy. Very quite at night and very private terraces. My fiancé and I stayed for 5 nights in early Oct. The weather was perfect for dinners on the patio and I loved cooking in the outdoor kitchen. The multiple views across multiple terraces were incredible. It's a short 10 min walk to Ravello which is much less touristy than Amalfi. We rented a Vespa for anything further.
There are about 200 stairs down and up to the villa so we paid our taxi drivers to help with bags. If you are not able bodied you cannot stay here. It is also a multi story, spiral staircase home. So there is no way you can be here with someone (young or old) that can't walk easily. That being said, we found the inside to be stunning and romantic. The stairs were welcome exercise.
The garden was ripe with seasonal fruits. We enjoyed tomatoes, kiwis, figs, grapes, lemons and rosemary. Our checkin/checkout with Gerardo was incredibly easy. He gave us a great recommendation to a booking agency, Chic & Fabulous, in downtown Ravello. We rented our vespa, purchased ferry tickets to Amalfi, booked private car services and received recommendations from Francesca and her team.
Asks: More larger bath towels would have been nice.
I would recommend this property to nearly anyone for a group up to 4 people. Fantastic experience.
