spent five days here with friends. The Villa was very well appointed and the vistas were stunning. Gaetano was very helpful with guiding us on what to do and where to eat without being obtrusive. Many places are closed here this time of year but there was plenty to do and we enjoyed that it was not crowded. We would love to return!

The house was simply furnished and as expected 3 flights of stairs to reach our level. A bit difficult with luggage but not unexpected. Each room had an ensuite bath. The 2 larger bedrooms in back were a bit humid. Not sure if humidifier working well in one. The front bedrooms are smaller and thus airier. We were happy to have the use of the washer, located in one of the smaller bedrooms bath, and dryer on porch. We were hanging laundry to dry both outside and inside but humidity made use of the dryer a necessity at times. The weather was lovely, some clouds and rain but refreshing. Gaetano’s grandaughter Sabrina greeted us and helped us get organized. They had also left breakfast snacks and milk in refrigerator. Great coffee maker with coffee provided. Having a cappuccino or wine on the terrace was the highlight of our day staying here. I loved the location and highly recommend this comfortable place especially families who can navigate the stairs well. Great restaurants nearby that you can walk to.

I just returned from 6 nights at this villa in Positano, celebrating birthdays with four other high school friends. This is a wonderful property! Room enough for all 5 of us and located within walking distance of at least 7 or more excellent restaurants. Slightly away from the hustle of “downtown “ Positano, but within easy reach. Gaetano and family could not have been more helpful to us!
The balcony overlooking the sea was our home away from home!
Thanks, Gaetano!

I thank my lucky stars I found this property & booked it well in advance for our week in Positano in July 2023. It was our favorite rental from our trip to Italy and I would love to stay there again someday.
The pluses are many: Host Gaetano is the best. He had stocked the kitchen with milk, butter, bfast foods, pasta & sauce, tea, coffee, sugar, espresso - it was fantastic to be all set with those items immediately. He also provided several plug adapters, beach towels, shower products, plenty of towels, etc. He lives upstairs and is responsive when you need him but not in your space at all. He's a lovely man and I really appreciate the care he takes to ensure guests have everything they need. He's also more laid back about everything compared to other owners I've rented from. There's no giant list of rules and requirements.
The property was perfect for us, a family of 4 - husband & I, our 2 adult sons as well as close friends (married couple). Having 4 bedrooms, each with an en suite bathroom, was terrific. The living room is comfy and homey as is the kitchen.
The outside space and the view are the real showstoppers here. We started and ended every day there. The huge umbrella provides nice shade at those times so you can enjoy your morning coffee, evening cocktails, etc.
The location is great - near a lot but up out of the packed tourist crowds. We had an amazing week - can't recommend it enough.

Our week-long stay at this VRBO was the highlight of our trip to Italy. The unit was large enough to fit 6 adults comfortably and the outside terrace gave us additional space to relax. The view from the outside seating area was unbeatable! The unit was clean and stocked with coffee and snacks so we didn't have to immediately find a grocery store. The location was great for shopping, restaurants and access to both beaches. Gaetano and his staff were very helpful and accommodating - he organized transfer to/from Naples and Rome, recommended a fabulous charter boat company for our tour of Capri, and helped us decide the best way to visit Amalfi and Ravello for the day. If we are ever lucky enough to get back to the Amalfi coast, we will definitely stay here again.

Our resent trip and stay in Positano could not have been better. Our VRBO home and our host, Gaetano we’re wonderful. The home was lovely and had a magnificent view of Positano. We would definitely return to this home again in the future. Thank you Gaetano for all of your assistance with restaurant recommendations and with advice on tour activities.

Gaetano not only provided this amazing place for my family to stay but gave wonderful recommendations so that we could experience everything Positano had to offer. Half the time we didn’t want to leave our VRBO because it was just so perfect!

Our family of five enjoyed a fantastic four days in Positano at this wonderful villa. There was plenty of room (4 bathrooms is ideal with three teenage daughters!), the location was perfect, and Gaetano was a terrific and helpful host. I highly recommend this lovely villa for your Positano vacation.

We couldn’t have been more pleased with this property- first of all the hosts are extremely responsive and made every effort to assist us with every question. The location is absolutely stunning and, unlike many Positano homes, only a few steps from the road, mid- city. It’s an easy walk to shopping, restaurants, and the beach with a small grocery only a few minutes walk up the road. Our terrace was heaven with gorgeous views. The house was super clean, with lots of treats to make the stay more comfortable. We would very happily return!

The location in Positano is beautiful and close to market places and shops. Upon arrival, Gaetano greeted us and provided helpful information including how to get to places to dine in or buy food for a family of six. We bought local food and wine, and cooked most of our meals from the well equipped kitchen. The table on the balcony overlooking the Mediterranean was a favorite for eating and enjoying a relaxing afternoon or evening. There was enough space inside for our late night card games or watching TV. Gaetano recommended a cooking class from Chef Antonio and his team. The chef came to the villa and taught us how to make traditional Italian dishes. We laughed, drank wine, told stories and shared in a meal we created together. It was so much fun and we felt like we learned something new! Our stay in Positano was lovely and the accommodations were perfect for our family. There was ample space for all of us and everything we needed and more was there. Each couple having a bathroom to themselves is definitely a plus . Added touches that made this place special were things like a kind and attentive host close by, a great set up for coffee in the morning with some breakfast items available on the first morning of our stay, umbrellas, and a washer and dryer so that we were ready for the next leg of our trip. We wanted to start our time in Italy in a relaxing, beautiful setting that allowed our family some time to get caught up and enjoy each other before heading off to Naples and Rome. Gaetano's place allowed for us to do just that. We loved it! Our future son in law found Positano the perfect spot to ask our daughter to be his wife. She said "yes!" :-). For this reason and for so many more, this will always be a special place for us.

Everything was great, everyone had there own bathroom and shower, there was restaurants and shopping fairly close, there is a bus stop close by. Only wish the beach was closer and have good walking shoes

When Researching accommodations in Positano we required a minimum of 3 bedrooms with in suite bathrooms. In reviewing Villa Misastilla via VRBO description & photos it appeared we had found the perfect place. Upon arrival we found four bedrooms as advertised but shocked in room size. Two bedrooms were adequate but small the two remaining bedrooms were so small one of our couples had to split up with each occupying a separate bedroom. If you consider renting this rental, you better be a family with small children.

Gataeno was great his insight to the location was spot on. The beach he recommended was awesome, not too crowded and clean. He recommended a wonderful vineyard tour Tenuto. And had great connections with local driver services.

Four ladies stayed at the villa, and we had a wonderful time. The villa had everything we needed. We all had our own bedroom and bathroom. I can't express how beautiful the view from the terrace is! It was such a treat to relax on the terrace after a busy day. The view of the cliffs and the water with the boats below is amazing. Gaetano was so helpful. He provided us with a map and detailed information on nearby stores and beaches. I would highly recommend this propety.
10.0
Gaetano was a perfect host. His villa was lovely and we couldn’t have asked for more. He gave excellent recommendations and helped is with any questions. The villa was spacious, immaculate and had all the amenities you could possibly need. The views from the terrace were gorgeous. The location was excellent and located near many shops and restaurants. Be sure to make reservations at restaurants during busy season. The villa had 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, kitchen, living room and a very large terrace. Would highly recommend!

Would highly recommend!
We loved everything about this property but the view was hands down the best part! Being able to sit outdoors on the grassy deck covered by an umbrella with a view of the water and cliff side was lovely! There was so much space in this property for us all to have our own bedroom and bathroom. Gaetano was incredible with helping to arrange transportation and he recommended a fabulous restaurant for dinner! Overall we would definitely come back…it was the highlight of our trip to Italy!

Absolutely Wonderful!
The apartment was fantastic. We've stayed at many VRBOs and we all agreed that this is the most well-equipped VRBO we've ever stayed at. We literally could not think of anything we would suggest they change or that is missing. Gaetano was an excellent and very friendly host and the whole experience was lovely. Speaking of lovely, the view from the balcony was stunning and very peaceful and quiet. We had a great time and would definitely come stay at this property again.

Positano charming property
We had a terrific week staying at this Positano apartment. Gaetano was terrific. Helpful with logistics and transportation. Oriented us to the apartment. The location is the best. Right in the middle of Posiatano where you can easily walk to town or other locations. If you prefer the local bus stops a block away. This apartment was roomy and five adults never felt crowded. Best was the outdoor patio with a view that is stunning.

Fantastic experience in Positano
Such a lovely place to stay in Positano with the best host ever. Gaetano was very accommodating in arranging excursions for us and providing a variety of information about places to visit and restaurants. The apartment had a lovely terrace where we spent many evenings sipping wine and enjoying a gorgeous view of the Mediterranean. The apartment was also very well-equipped and we loved having for individual bathrooms. We recommend this apartment very highly.

Positano at its best
From the moment we arrived, thru our extended stay,this home & Gaetano provided a fabulous experience for our 3 couples. Dining on the patio, with its view, rivaled the fine restaurants that are only a few minutes walk. The home has many niceties that elevated this location to top of our Italian vacation list. Grazie Mille to Gaetono

Great getaway
The property is exactly as described and has amazing views of Positano. The owner went out of his way to welcome us and help us arrange activities. This is the best place we have stayed.

The view is worth all the steps.
This unit is large and comfortable. We used 3 of the bedrooms and enjoyed out stay very much. We used the owners’ advice and bought our groceries in a nearby market, so that worked out well. It’s quite a climb up and down to get to the main waterfront, but that’s part of the fun of Positano, and you’ll forget all about those steps when enjoying your breakfast on the nice patio overlooking the sea. We hope to return!

Short but lovely trip to Positano
The property has one of the best views.. place is big enough to accommodate us (5) . Can easily handle. 6 or 7 maybe... I can not mention enough how nice the owner Gaetano was... He was very helpful and available to us... He arranged our pick-up, and drive back to Naples airport. I had asked him to pick up a few things ( basic grocery) for us before we arrive & he did... the place was clean and not too far from the beach ( Positano is all stairs , as a reminder), so be prepared to do them . Gaetano showed us the best way to get to beach.

Wonderful property and location!
We absolutely loved this unit. Sitting out on the terrace drinking wine and overlooking the town and sea was fantastic. It is up the hill a bit from the heart of town, but easily walk-able if you are in good shape (there are a lot of stairs). Would not hesitate to book this property again!

Absolutely Perfect
4 days at Gaetono’s apartment/house was the highlight of our 11 day European trip! Absolutely perfect as advertised. Spacious accommodations. Loved sitting out on the patio overlooking the area and Mediterranean Sea. Gaetono was there and available to help with any requests for reservations for tours, transportation, etc. Can’t speak highly enough, NO disappointments!

December in Positano?
Yes, it was cold at times but there were very few people out & about. We enjoyed the quiet streets, very few cars and the restaurants and shops that were open were enough for us. No fancy restaurants but three that served simple, delicious meals!
The apartment was lovely! Needless to say, the terrace has a million dollar view from sunrise to sunset. Despite the cool/cold weather we often sat out there in the afternoon to read and wait for the sunset.Gaitano and daughter Barbara were fine hosts, always there when we needed them (help with tv and washing machine) Book it now! It was great.
