Had a glorious 21 day stay in the magnificent villa, Antica Casale, Santa Lucia, in beautiful, peaceful Massa Lubrense! The villa was absolutely perfect in every way. The inside accommodations were immaculate, with all the necessities needed! The stunning massive outside area was beautifully decorated with an amazing view of Capri! The pool area was a delight with plenty of seating and a wonderful outside bathroom and outdoor shower! Our sweet and loving hosts Luisa, Giovanni and family were absolutely amazing, providing all the essentials, including delicious chef made dinners and a wonderful pizza making experience. Their generous hospitality was beyond perfect making my family and friends feel so welcomed and loved. The neighborhood where the villa was located was beautiful. The wonderful local store, which was just minutes away by foot, provided all the essentials need for our three week stay. Another delight was the delicious neighborhood restaurant, La Torre 1 Fire. The owner Antonio and his beautiful daughters were just fabulous. If you are thinking about visiting the Amalfi Coast this is the villa for you!

Quite literally, the very best site we've ever stayed at (and we've stayed at over 50)! Giovanni and Louisa were brilliant, loving hosts! Such exceptionally gracious people. The villa is a castle from 1761 and is breathtaking, not just the view but the rooms, the hallways, the little extras. And soooo many modern amenities with flair! Did I mention the view looking out at Capri and the Med is incredible! Seriously, this IS the villa to book! You can rent Giovanni's boat for your trip to Capri, which either he will captain or his son, Gennaro, will. They have pizza-making classes on site with a beautiful pizza oven they built themselves. WE LOVED IT SO MUCH THAT WE DID IT TWICE!! Yes, it was that good. The pizza was so delicious and the experience was so fun! a market that you can walk to about 150 yards away. easy walk. 300 yards away is a restaurant that gets a Michelin mention each year. AMAZING FOOD, but even better is the family running it! Tony, Alicia, mama in the kitchen, Viktor even arm-wrestled me! :D Wonderful restaurant & family flair! You can walk down to Massa Lubrense for restaurants, a larger market, shops, and more. Then catch a cab back up. Check out La Cantuccio. - Go to Cala di Puolo for time on a truly Med beach. Sure the umbrella and chair aren't cheap, but they're soooo worth it. - Go to Sant' Agata by taxi to Fiorentino for delicious pastries and gelato. Check out La Stuzzichino

A wonderful character villa, large, fantastic view. Maria, the Property Manager, never appeared. A cot was requested at booking, and a reminder sent 2 days before arrival, but was not at the villa when we arrived. Giovanni & his wife Louisa presented themselves ther next day as the Property Managers, and they looked after us very well. Villa has all the facilities needed, good WiFi (inside), some of the patio & pool furniture needs to be replaced (eg broken or torn patio umbrellas). But overall, a great vacation villa, we were a family of 12, we all enjoyed it.
