What a FABULOUS time we had at the villa! Francesco took care of all of our arrangements quickly and professionally. Lorna communicated with us about our arrival and gave us the grand tour and instructions in perfect English. Giovannia lived there and seemed to us the perfect Italian grandmother....wanting to communicate past our language barrier...showing us her garden, making us coffee, and telling us about the area. With 4 huge bedrooms (all with king size beds), the 4 of us had no problem finding our own space, even while sharing one bathroom. It was perfect! We had rented a car, so it was a quick 15-minute drive down the hillside into Sorrento, where we found wonderful restaurants, shopped, and enjoyed the incredible views. BUT, nothing could beat the views from our villa! Even though it was a little chilly, we sat outside every chance we had just to enjoy the vista. Incredible. We opted not to drive ourselves to the Amalfi Coast (which was the right decision), but our driver had no trouble finding us...even though the mini-bus had some tight squeezes on the small street. But, that's part of the charm. If you're going to Italy, don't waste your time staying at a hotel. You can do that anywhere! Stay at an actual Italian villa with an Italian speaking host and soak it all in! This villa will always be "casa dolce casa" to us when in southern Italy!

An amazing view of sorrento and the bay.The host is very considerate and communicative.We really enjoyed the lovely house and its cute neighborhood.When it comes to visiting positano,it's better to stay there than positano itself.Great stay!!
