gorgeous views and great location for getting the bus and water ferries to all locations.
The view was amazing and once we figured out the bus tickets we were good. The bus stop is a 10 minute walk over to the Piccadilly ceramic shop, where the owners and staff are wonderful and helpful. We had coffee/expresso there a few times and purchased some items as well. The bus stop in front of the villa is not being used due to some roadway work being done at the location. Serafina is the owners rep that will meet you and she was like a concierge for us - making dinner reservations and helping out with transportation when needed, she also can arrange outings for you. The grotto Smeraldo is a must see over by the ceramic shop and there is a water taxi to Almalfi right from there as well.
There was an ant problem so make sure you have spray for them- check that you have a full can or more than 1, as they are on the deck area and in the bathrooms. It is mainly because of the grapes/vines that cover the veranda but if they weren't there you would be in direct sunlight all day. The WIFI never worked for us when we were there so be prepared for that. The pool was nice but "closes" at 7pm..... this would've been nicer if it was able to be used after 7pm. There is no place local to buy tickets for the bus so you will have to try online, which we were never successful with, or hope you get a bus driver that carries tickets for your first ride- once you get to your location you can get tickets for all your needs.

I would have rated higher if not for the ants.
The view was amazing and having the pool to cool off was necessary. Serafina was very helpful.
Ants are a huge problem here. The bathroom was covered in hundreds of small ants around the toilet and sink. We had to spray to kill them and clean them up every day.

Spacious villa with a nice view
The appartment was spacious and clean, the properly manager was super helpful and assisted us with arrangements of dinners and local tours. We enjoyed spending some time on the balcony with the view on the sea and tiny lizards. The parking was available in the garage. It’s 15 min walk down to the beach, which was mostly used by locals and has good restaurants.
The first day we had no hot water, but the property manager was able to fix it the next morning, however hot water wasn’t running in the kitchen, so doing dishes was a bit difficult. The WiFi didn’t work and the regular phone reception was working well when being outside on the balcony. So if you plan to do some work while staying here, it won’t be possible. If the wifi can’t be fixed because of the location (villa located behind a cliff) I would advise to remove the wifi from the list of facilities.

Disappointing, can't recommend right now; swimming pool closed; on dangerous road
Spacious accommodation with 3 good sized rooms plus bathroom (no bathtub though). Great view. One bit of advice for anyone staying here - you will need a hire car because the roads are treacherous to walk along. Don't hire a wide vehicle because the roads all along the coast and up to the nice villages are very narrow and twisting. We got away with it by some very careful driving. You are at risk of smashing your wing mirrors and get a hefty penalty or lose your excess unless you hire a small/narrow car!! There is an underground car park tunneled into the cliff; getting in and out of it onto the main road is tricky.
Serafina was good with check-in, although it was over 2 hours later than we had asked. But she dismally failed to get the hot water working for us; luckily the shower had its own hot water. Impossible to do washing up in the sink unless we boiled a kettle. "Hot" water was only ever tepid at best (only seemed to run hot on one solitary occasion in the basin in the bathroom, that's it). We did try running it for several minutes at a time but no success - Serafina agreed no hot water when we showed her. No heating in the apartment (and we did mention this more than once), could be a problem for some. Swimming pool not in use - disappointing in May. If two couples were using this apartment then one would have to walk through the other couple's bedroom to reach the toilet. "Smart" TV couldn't get any channels via netflix etc., which were meant to be functioning; only occasional access to local TV channels and despite us asking Serafina to help us how to use it/fix it, nothing had happened by the final afternoon of our stay, so I gave up told her not to bother! Difficult to recommend this apartment to anyone in its present state/facilities. Were the owners compromising on standards because there were only 2 apartments in use?

A beautiful stay in Amalfi
Villa Carmela is situated in a very beautiful spot in Conca dei Marini; just facing the sea, with large airy terrasses. The appartment was clean, pretty and calm, good privacy also. Pool area is nice, 'in the nature'. We were kindly received and very flexibly since we needed to change our arrival time. We got a lot of help from the host with breakfast, advice and even bus tickets, also with the transport as our flights changed to a nightly one so it was really appreciated by us.
There is road going by from which some noise arises but one gets used to it. Wifi does not function that well due to mountains I suppose but that is somehow good also. One can walk to the small beach and to the bus stop but it would have been worthwhile to have a car since all the services are far. We moved by bus though.
