This is a very special place. Everyone should experience it at least once in their lifetime.

The service and the room was simply the best. The Villa is beautiful. Our room was very quiet. Our breakfast was wonderful and served just for us.

Villa Durante was easily the most special and unique accommodation of our entire trip around Italy. From the warm welcome of the staff to the uniqueness of the palatial suite of rooms. Villa Durante is an original, palatial old villa built by a wealthy family in the 1700's/ 1800's. We stayed in the suite with the frescoed walls and it was truly amazing. The room itself was huge, and we also had two bathrooms, one incredibly ornate one fit for a Queen, as well as second bathroom and large dressing room area. The bed was supremely comfortable. Breakfast is wonderful and was brought into us each morning on a table for us to sit and enjoy in front of our balcony. Parking too is incredibly easy, it is on the premises in a gated private courtyard, and the location of Villa Durante itself is incredibly handy. Much easier to get to than we expected, and an amazing base to explore from. You can travel anywhere and we did, into downtown Naples or you can travel to the airport easily, or over to Vesuvius and Sorrento. Lastly, the incredible buried town of Herculaneum is literally just across the street. We saved ourselves a trip to Pompei and visited Herculaneum instead and were not disappointed. We agreed that we would always stay at Villa Durante again. We can't recommend it highly enough. Just loved it. Thank you so much to all the wonderful staff.

Stayed 4 nights on our trip to Ercolano. Lovely room, comfy bed and pillows. Beautiful breakfast served each morning at a time of our choosing. Central area close to the town, Herculaneum and train station for trains to Naples and Sorrento etc.

Delightful experience that was 1st class. Beautiful property, excellent staff, great recommendations for excursions, dining, and touring the local area. All special requests were addressed. The villa was full but we were treated as though we were the only family staying at the villa Durante. Would return to the accommodation without any reservation. Over the top experience .

It really is like staying in your own palazzo. The owner and all the staff were super. Breakfast was lovely and plentiful. I would stay again.

It was one of the most amazing places I have ever stayed. The villa itself was so grand we felt like royalty! Teresa our host was excellent, she was super friendly and went out of her way to make us feel comfortable. It has a great location only 20 minutes drive from the Mt Vesuvius climb and around the same to the ruins of Pompeii. It is also walking distance to the other lesser known ruins of Herculaneum. I would not hesitate to recommend Villa Durante to anyone visiting this area, great for convenience but outstanding for the bucket list experience! We will be back.

We arrived from Naples airport quite late and was greeted by Francesca who was so helpful to guide the taxi driver to the villa door. Taxis are expensive and it cost us 65 euros. The villa is a hidden gem and each room is as stylish and beautiful as the pictures on the website. Our room was a mini suite which was spacious and comfortable with good AC. We arrived too late to go for dinner however there seemed to be various cafes / restaurants around. Francesca and Teresa arranged the most beautiful and delicious breakfast of croissants, fresh fruit, yoghurt and perfect cappuccinos which they bought to our room. We visited Herculaneum which is literally 5 minutes walk away which is fantastic and really worth a visit. We cannot thank Francesca and Teresa enough for their kind hospitality to make this such a memorable stay. We had a short walk to the rail station to head off to Pompeii. Highly recommend.
