The IEV agency folks running scam and not telling you the truth about the major challenges you would face with your stay. There are almost 200 uneven steps to get to the Villa from the street. It is extremely hard to go anywhere, and you would end up with really bad and expensive stuff if you ask the agency to buy you. Do not give them cash for security deposit, only credit card which you can charge back if they play game and blame you for broken things that you had nothing to do with.

The villa can accommodate 8 people easily and still feel very specious and private! The house is wonderful- tastefully decorated, lovely gardens, and incredible views from several terraces. The pool is much deeper and fits more people than it appears to as well. There is a gorgeous beach and two restaurants just a short walk downstairs from the villa and water taxis at the port to easily and quickly take you to various towns nearby. There is also a Sita bus stop right at the top of the villa stairs so getting around is very easy! The on site contact, Serafina, is amazing- she greeted us upon arrival and was always available for any questions we had or to help us with arranging grocery delivery, porters, drivers, tours, etc! She truly made our experience easy, relaxing, and special. We always felt like we had a guide to contact if we needed anything at all. Notes to keep in mind: there’s lots of stairs (as expected on the coast), be very cautious with ceramics as breaking a plate can cost $50+, AC is only in the bedrooms, but the villa is mostly in the shade from the afternoon onward so plan accordingly.

Prachtige omgeving, het beste is om alles met de watertaxi te doen. Je moet wel van traplopen houden. Het huis is oud met een prachtig uitzicht. Je krijgt 24/7 een man bij het huis die alles voor je regelt zoals broodjes halen.

Overall very stunning place and had a nice time. Sitting and/or eating outside was one of the highlights of the trip. Beach area in Conca Dei Marini was great as well. Only negatives are WIFI could have been faster, and the kitchen could have better supplies. For a villa this expensive, both should have been better, but neither was a big deal.

Exclusive Villa staff who assist VRBO bookings was wonderful to communicate and work with and they provided transfers car shuttle and boat excursions and suggestions to restaurants and more! Luigi local Contact welcomed us to the Villa and was great with suggestions! Sudan was there for housekeeping and more and assisted with bags! The views are amazing from the villa and the restaurants on the beach helpful and good. The restaurants in Conca will pick you up at the bottom of road if called. The Sita avoid and take as many water boat or ferry rides that you can. We will return to the Amalfi coast and we welcome anyone to stay at my VRBO rental in Haena Hawaii VRBO 1700055

This property was recommended by friends so we had a high degree of confidence that it was a good choice... and it was. The layout was perfect for our family; a master with a bath, 2 upper level bedrooms that shared a bath, and a lower level apartment that offered additional privacy. There are multiple terraces with stunning views and the pool is both functional to cool down and great to gather socially. The location offers a balance of privacy and access to popular tourist spots. In the marina you will find family owned / operated restaurants and boat services. For us the key to optimizing our use of these was Sudan, who lives on property and is there to help you enjoy your visit. Apart from his normal routine of breakfast and housekeeping, he will be interested to know your daily program so that he can assist you in making it happen. For example the day we wanted to rent beach chairs... he had it done in a perfect spot, trips to Amalfi, Ravello, Capri, Positano... he made sure we knew how to get there and back with ease, food liquor etc from the market... done, food delivery from the restaurant- one call from Sudan and it’s done. Our family felt safer with his presence on site and grateful for his attentiveness and hard work. On the planning side, everything Francesca arranged (ground transportation, Pompeii tour went exactly as planned). The car service they used was excellent. Our suggested list of things you should be prepared for prior to your visit. First the only spaces that are air conditioned are the bedrooms. You will be able to enjoy a beautiful sunrise... however direct sun till the afternoon. So you may find yourself using shutters etc. to get the right balance of breezes and shade to lower the temperature of the common living space. Bring bath supplies (soaps, shampoo etc), and you may be find yourself wanting a few more towels (we purchased beach towels from the beach vendor downstairs). On the money side, in the marina we were for the most-part able to use credit cards... however cash is handy for tips etc. and there is no ATM right there. So we found ourselves planning our cash needs on our trips to Amalfi etc. You’ll also find cash handy when you settle at checkout for things like electric overage, things you may have purchased from the market etc, and your likely gratuity for Sudan. Lastly be prepared for the steps... hit the stair master the month prior to travel. Net net... a beautiful vacation spot.

Our family loved our time at this beautiful villa. The home is lovely with a great kitchen, patios with spectacular views, grill, large bedrooms, great bathrooms, living area was so comfortable. The pool overlooking the sea was beyond compare and we used it often. The nearby beach is very accessible by private stairs. Several restaurants at the beach make your day so enjoyable and relaxing as you can spend a day at the beach, have a delicious lunch and swim all day. Luigi was so helpful, going way beyond what you would expect, he never failed to meet our every need, arranging restaurant trips and tennis dates. Sudan was there for us at all times and provided over the top service for our family. He was so congenial and energetic, friendly and helped us so much. We will never forget our visit and hope to return another time.

Villa Oriani was Incredible! Located in a small cove, between Amalfi and Priaeno , the villa met all of our. Weds ...and more. 4 Bedrooms easily accommodated four couples, the "grotto" style spa was a perfect place to chill out in the afternoon. Roughly 130 steps to the beach, featuring three beachfront eateries, gave us plenty of dining options if we did not wanted to eat locally. The beach also provided easy access to beach transportation to Amalfi and Positano. The villa was perfect for our needs, I can't imagine staying anywhere else.

Elle est très bien équipée et se trouve en près de la plage avec beaucoup de délicieuses restaurants de fruits de mer. Le lieu était confortable, calme et avec la bonne intimité. Idéal pour une grande famille ou entre amis. La beauté de cette structure n’a pas laissé nous accuser le jour de pluie. Nous avons passé un agréable séjour dans cette propriété et nous le recommanderions sans hésiter.

We travelled with three other couples and had a blast! I highly recommend this villa. Everything from the design, decor, lush grounds, spectacular service, and perfect amenities made our stay unbelievable. During my stay I was in heaven and really wished I had more time there. We just had to walk down the beach at evening for the best food ever! Everyone is so pleasant & attentive and the food was wonderful as well! The high end luxury combined with the gorgeous grounds and superior service really make Villa Oriana worth every cent!!

Villa Oriana was lovely. It is worth getting up early before the sun comes over the hills to enjoy the balconies before it is too hot and see the spectacular sunrise. We enjoyed watching all the boat traffic below us and all three restaurants on the beach. The accommodations were comfortable, internet worked well in the main portions of the house. The master bed is a bit smaller than an American King. The air conditioning made sleeping comfortable. The local staff were very attentive when we had questions. As advertised, there are many stairs!

Our experience with Costa Divina was incredible from the moment we expressed interest in renting one of their villas. They were very responsive and answered all of our questions from the time we booked until our unforgettable trip to Italy! We knew we made the right choice even before we saw our villa. They arranged everything beautifully! On top of their great service the villa we rented - Villa Oriana by far exceeded our expectations. The villa was so beautiful it literally took our breath away. It was so difficult to leave there we nearly cried having to leave there. We absolutely plan on returning and booking through Costa Divina again!

Hi Simonetta, We are back home after having had an outstanding vacation. Everyone here is well and happy. You played a huge part in making our trip so memorable. The villa could not have been nicer, and the location was perfect. We often refer back to our week in Amalfi. It was such a great time. One of the highlights was to meet you and your family. I will be happy to write something for the guest book because the villa was outstanding. We will certainly come back to Amafi sometime in the future and we will contact you for sure. I will not hesitate to pass your name along to anyone wishing to visit Amalfi. Thank you again, There is a book entitled "1,000 Places To See Before You Die" Villa Oriana has to be the 1001st place. The view is spectacular, the location is only a short bus ride to anywhere in the coast and the sea is at your doorstep. The villa itself is well laid out for a group of 8 so that those who want want to party can go for it and if anyone wishes a time out they can get away and be alone. The Nadia housekeeper is a jewel. We went away feeling totally pampered. The most difficult part of the trip having to come home.
