Two friends and I booked this stay for a vacation in Praiano. The host family was sweet and kind! They gave us fresh tomatoes and figs. The view is absolutely incredible and the apartment is clean and comfortable. AC works well. Highly recommend if you are looking for a two bedroom stay in Praiano!

Wonderful location away from the craziness of Positano and Amalfi. Paiano is a much quieter village with lovely restaurants and little shops. The bus is a 3 min walk away and the water is about 10-15 mins yo go for a swim. Amazing views from your own spacious terrace. Enjoy the evening sun while watching the sun go down over Positano

Our time at this accommodation was absolutely wonderful. I felt as though I really got a sense of Italian culture staying here and I loved every minute of it. It was peaceful and simple.
The host was so nice and accommodating. He clearly works hard to keep the garden looking as well as it does. The balcony and outdoors…breathtaking!! The pics don’t do it justice. We spent most of our time out there just enjoying the view.
Don’t change a thing! It was perfect.
It was a pleasure dealing with Luca. Very responsive and helpful. I would definitely use Summer In Italy again!

Spacious, well-equipped, and a fantastic location. Beautiful views. Peaceful and quiet. The property exceeded our expectations. A memorable week. Excellent communication with the host. The host shared ripe fruit and vegetables from the gardens too! Highly Recommend!

The property was lovely and the patio views were amazing! The apartment was simple, quiet and comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. We were greeted with fresh basil, tomatoes and peppers for making tomato salsa! Also Giovanni surprised us with fresh figs one morning.
Our hosts were wonderful and helpful.
Just one suggestion...the mattresses were firm but could use a softening topper! One warning...If you bring a car to Praiano there are few parking options!
Che Bonto, just a block away was great for dinner or lunch.
We loved our stay there and visiting all the surrounding areas!
5.0 / 5.0
We had a wonderful stay. The view alone made it an amazing stay. The apartment had everything we needed. The walk up the hill to the apartment helped work off the calories we consumed at our favorite restaurants. Praiano is a lovely small town that is very peaceful and not crowded after you return from visits to nearby towns that are a little more busy.
Giovanni [the owner] brought us fresh figs throughout the week that were sweet and delicious.
Luca at Summer in Italy was great to work with and communicated everything we needed to know.

Fantastic accommodation. Would recommend to anyone visiting the Amalfi Coast!
5.0 / 5.0
Yes, I loved it especially the view and the garden and terrace.
It was great to meet Giovanni the owner and his grandson who couldn't have been nicer and both were so helpful. It was so nice to be greeted with freshly picked tomatoes and figs from the their own garden when we arrived and on a couple of other occasions too. Everything was great.
We picked Summer In Italy because we have used it before and found it good but we even found it better this time. We have also been asked about where we stayed and I have been recommending Summer In Italy to all of my friends - keep up the good work especially Luca Trotta, thank you for a great holiday.

The apartment is in a group with other apartments and has a gate which is locked at night. We were under the impression that it would be easy to park on the street, but it was more difficult and expensive than we thought it would be. Parking is divided for residents (yellow parking spaces), for non-residents (blue spaces) that cost three Euros per hour from 8 AM till 8 PM and free (white spaces). There are only four white spaces on the whole street and others farther away than you would want to walk. Most of the time it was possible to get a blue space not too far away, but not always.
The beds in both bedrooms were not at all comfortable. In one bedroom the bed was extremely soft and in the other, it was hard but you could feel the springs.
Check in was difficult because the owner, who was a very sweet man, didn’t speak any English. We tried to use Google Translate but eventually called a family member who did speak English to help us understand the basics.
We also had some plumbing problems in one of the bathrooms where the shower didn’t drain quickly so the shower started to fill with water. The water heaters are very small so we had a lack of hot water.
On the positive side, the apartment had a nice terrace garden with beautiful ocean view. One of our friends got a lot of mosquito bites though when we sat out.
Laundry was helpful with clothes lines set up for drying.

What a beautiful location and wonderful hosts. The views of the coast and sea are stunning and the lounge chairs allow optimal sun and relaxation. Praiano is quiet but not without good restaurants and shops. It's an easy downhill walk into town for groceries and public transportation, just remember there's an uphill return. There's a lot to see and do on foot and with easy access to adjacent towns by bus. We'd return in a minute.
Mr. Nicola and Mr. Giovanni [the owners] were very helpful and accommodating. Mr. Giovanni's father presented us with delicious tomatoes, lemons and figs he'd picked from the gardens he maintains on the property. We were really happy to stay at Casa Guglielmina and had no complaints. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable.
Summer In Italy was a remarkable find and very helpful with answering our questions and assisting in securing the listing. Their monthly newsletter was informative and entertaining. I'd use them again to look for housing during any return to Italy.

We loved Casa Guglielmina and would definitely stay there again. The house was well equipped, spacious and clean. I used the kitchen quite a lot and everything I needed was there. Lovely little garden and terrace, even had an outside shower which was very nice during the hottest days. Peaceful and fantastic location. Easy access to the town and buses for Amalfi or Positano. We hired a self drive boat, a Vespa and took a bus ride to Sorrento.
It was a pleasure to stay in this lovely little, but spacious, villa holiday.
Giovanni is a lovely caretaker and would be there if we needed assistance. He gave gave us some lovely home grown peaches and nothing was a problem it we needed him. Thank you!
We have used Summer In Italy many times before and always recommend others to them as they are so very professional and helpful. They have a great selection of villas on their website and we cannot wait for our next venture with them.

We loved it so much, we are going to plan another vacation around this lodging for a longer period of time.
The owner and property manager exceed all expectations. The pictures truly don't do it justice and they are good. The small garden and the view are breathtaking. The stairs are not as cumbersome as stated. I am 72 and we did fine.
I have now highly recommended Summer In Italy and will use them for future planning.

Spent most of the time outside, so we did not use the living room.
Were greeted with fresh lemons on the table and we got fresh tomatoes from the garden by the landlord.

We had a wonderful stay in Praiano at Casa Guglielmina. It's a great place to stay if you want to avoid the busier towns of Positano and Amalfi.

We enjoyed the garden area very much. We found the pathways behind the streets interesting and inviting. This was the perfect place to stay along the Amalfi Coast.
We only had to ask Giovanni and his grandfather would be there directly.
Summer In Italy was a fabulous site to work through. Everything was well explain ahead of time. I would highly recommend using Summer In Italy!

What a wonderful stay! The view is amazing. You are a very short walk down the hill to the bus stops on the main road and a local stop across the street. Wonderful garden terrace and nice to have two bathrooms with three girls.

This casa is very comfortable with 2 nice size bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The outdoor space is awesome and the view is spectacular. The sunsets each night were also amazing. We were thankful to be able to wash our clothes and enjoy breakfasts on the deck. The location is great. Just enough up the hill to be quiet but not too far of a walk.
5.0 / 5.0
The apartment with the large terrace and sea view is really nice. You could just sit there and look at the sea most of the day.
A small supermarket with everything you need and the bus stop are just a few meters away. There are a few steps to the beach, but there is also a lot to discover along the way.
I felt very comfortable with my two children as someone is always available, would love to come back.

We loved our stay in Praiano. The owner of the house was very kind and helpful. The flat is very clean and very comfortable. It has got two bathrooms and obviously nothing can beat the view. The neighbourhood is very quiet but the shops and restaurants and buses are close.
We highly recommend staying in Casa Guglielmina especially if you prefer smaller town like Praiano. It is easy to get to Positano or Amalfi town by bus from there. You can also take the Path of Gods which starts not far from the property.

We had a wonderful stay. We enjoyed it immensely.
Such a perfect location, the walking distance into town is such a plus! We really loved being right in between Positano and Amalfi. Just beautiful! And less busy!

Great for 4 people...

Casa Guglielmina was a delightful place to stay for a few days in July. The views from the terrace were unbelievable all day and into the evening across the bay to Positano and Capri.
We sat outside on the terrace for coffee in the morning and wine in the evening before eating out. Good air-conditioning meant the place was cool and having two bathrooms was a bonus as our daughter was holidaying with us. Plenty of space for the three of us.
A great location in Praiano, up the hill but easy walking distance to the amenities and down the coast for more restaurants. Loved staying there.
Summer In Italy was professional, informative and provided lots of details for our stay prior to arriving. Easy to arrange and book with. Would definitely use again.

The four of us really enjoyed our stay in Praiano at Casa Guglielmina. It is in a great location with a superb sea view, back to Positano.
The terrace provides a great opportunity for outdoor living. The house is naturally cool and also benefits from air conditioning in the lounge and in both bedrooms.
Everything was great.
5.0 / 5.0
We loved our stay at Casa Guglielmina! It is just as the photos show but so much more.
We found it spotlessly clean both inside and out. The lovely terrace is a highlight of the property with a view that takes your breath away morning and night. The kitchen was well equipped. With two bedrooms and two bathrooms it is a perfect fit for a family or two couples. We loved having the washing machine. The house is quiet and peaceful. It is not in the hub of tourism but all is within easy reach which makes it almost perfect.
I found the booking process easy. I had my trip cancelled due to Covid however was satisfied to take a credit and so pleased that in the end we were able to travel to the wonderful Amalfi Coast. I liked the news letters and also booked a transfer from the train at Naples and back with an excellent firm.
I really like Summer In Italy website. I find the layout with pictures and descriptions to be superior to other rental websites. When we arrived there were no surprises, all was exactly as I expected.

Casa Guglielmina is a wonderful place to stay. The view from the living room and the terrace is fantastic, from where you can enjoy the different moods over the sea, the coast and Capri on the horizon, depending on the weather.
But best of all was the warm-hearted owner, who was always available to answer questions and provided us with the delicious Amalfi lemons from his garden.
It was fantastic: the location, view, garden, terrace and the wonderful owner providing us with lemons of Amalfi from his garden. Thank you sooooo much!

Nicola and his father made us feel at home instantly and quickly attended to any request. We planned to travel up and down the coast, but never left Praiano, after all, we had the best view of the sea, luxury yachts, and Positano. We walked up and down the inclines to shops and restaurants. And walked down and up the 200 steps to the sea. The apartment is air conditioned which during the hot august summer was essential for us. Far better than any hotel to experience Praiano and we never tired of the view! We only wish we had longer to stay.
