We absolutely loved Villa Ridente! The house was perfect for myself, husband and our three adult children. Very authentic style, great breezes through the whole house, plenty of room for everyone. The views will take your breath away, from every part of the house. Also, we fell in love with Praiano and look forward to visiting again. I think the house was very lovely and met everyone’s needs. We simply loved our stay, and are plotting on how we can get back there in the future! Thanks very much! Oh, and keep Peppino [the caretaker] there forever! Without his guidance, we would’ve lost a lot of time and energy (and cash!) trying to figure out the area! From the moment we got there, Peppino was there to guide us through the house and give great advice and suggestions for activities, and helped plan them with us. Invaluable to have someone to help us get familiarized with the area, not to mention that Peppino brought us to a great restaurant the first night, then helped us get our groceries afterward! Never had such attention and wonderful service - can’t say enough about Peppino and the care and consideration of he and Summer In Italy. We felt that Summer In Italy was excellent. Not sure we’ve had such great care in our travels. Thank you!

Villa Ridente is well positioned for fabulous views and is a very traditional italian house. It is very clean and the kitchen particularly spacious and reasonably well equipped. Not for someone who does not like steps (approximately 50 up from the street) but it's steps everywhere on the Amalfi Coast so you get used to it. Praiano is a nice spot - few tourists and has more of a local community feel. It is perfectly positioned to visit Positano and Amalfi/Ravello by local bus. Being there for the fest of St Luke's was a bonus with brass band. Although there is not much to do here in mid October I would come back to this area to avoid the crowds of Positano and Amalfi which were great to visit. It was all pretty easy and a good experience with Summer In Italy.

We really enjoyed Villa Ridente. It was very comfortable and cozy. We loved that the local bus stop was in such close proximity to the house. Also, the mini mart located at the bottom of the stairs, was very convenient a number of times. We had a church that we could go to within walking distance, which for our group, was important. Overall, this place was easy to get to and close to everything we needed from Praiano! Summer In Italy was a good web site to use. Friends of mine recommended it. Thanks for everything.

We loved Villa Ridente, the beautiful ceramic tableware, well equipped kitchen, high quality furnishings, and the wonderful views from the terrace. It was very comfortable, clean and well kept. A pleasure to be able to use such a lovely home. I chose to book with Summer In Italy because of the number of properties available through them, the informative web site, and the excellent customer service. Any questions I had were responded to very quickly and I found them professional and efficient throughout the booking process and in the lead to our stay in Praiano. Could not fault any of the staff I had contact with.

Loved it. Villa Ridente was perfect for us.

We absolutely loved Praiano and fully enjoyed our stay at Villa Ridente. The house was clean and reasonably well equipped. It is in a great location, easy walking distance to local restaurants, the local Praiano bus stops only 50 meters away and the views along the coast are sensational. Another absolute bonus was having the little grocery store at the bottom of our steps. The staff there were lovely and the little shop seemed to stock everything we needed. The property manager, Peppino, was very nice and helpful. A few minor negatives with Villa Ridente was: no electric kettle for boiling water and the sloping ceilings in the top floor bedrooms made it a little uncomfortable for the adults sleeping there. These few issues aside, my group of 6 really enjoyed our stay at Praiano and would highly recommend Villa Ridente as a wonderful place to stay. Your accommodation service is wonderful. Luca, you and your staff are all first class and I will thoroughly recommend you and Summer In Italy to my friends and family. I will be only to happy to book through your company if we get back to Italy again. Thanks very much.

Villa Ridente is very well situated and all the commodities are excellent: well furnished kitchen, comfortable beds, clean, spacious etc. The caretaker, Mr. Peppino, is very helpful. He helped us in organizing a trip to Capri, found us parking for our car, helped us with groceries, gave us directions to get to places. His help made our stay very smooth. We definitely recommend this place to other travelers. The thing I appreciated most is that the description offered by Summer In Italy regarding the property is exactly what we found on site. No surprises. The emails received on a regular basis even before the departure give us a lot of information which is greatly appreciated.

We found Villa Ridente to be in ideal place easy to get to. The view was fabulous, the manager was very helpful. Hopefully we will go again one day. Very helpful website easy to use and accurate with availability.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Magnificient views, Many steps to climb to get to Villa but worth it for the views. Nice little shop down under villa, very convenient. Not much open over the winter months. Definitely need a car if staying in winter, Praiano is very small. No car parking, very difficult to find a park.

Villa Ridente is a comfortable holiday home, providing everything needed for a great stay. It was spotlessly clean and well presented. It is a quiet location, but only 5-10 minutes walk to the main street of Praiano. Also has great access to the sentiero degli dei. Our local contact, Peppe, ensured we had all we needed and arranged a boat trip to Capri for us, which was a highlight of our visit.

Villa Ridente is in a beautiful location away from the hustle of the bigger resorts with stunning views. Overall it was a very comfortable villa although the one bedroom without air-conditioning was difficult to sleep in as we were there in August and it was extremely hot. Overall we very much enjoyed our stay. The website is very informative and we felt confident that you knew the area. The customer service was excellent with very quick responses to any queries.

Fantastic! Would go back to Villa Ridente anytime. Staggering views. Well equipped kitchen. Views to die for! It was perfect! Very impressed your website and all the helpful information.

Villa Ridente was spacious for 6 people. The kitchen and eating area is very inviting with all of the amenities. The bathrooms were tight but functional. The beds were very comfortable on the hard side of comfort. The views were fantastic of Praiano and the sea. What a marvelous setting. Great mini-market store at the bottom of the 60 steps to the street. Pizza Jolly was great just a short walk around the switchback. The market place up the street, was a good place to park the car for short periods, but you have to pay per hour. Watch out for the meter maids!! Great location for the local bus route. Direct connection to Positano and the other SITA bus locations up and down the Amalfi coast. What a wonderful property Villa Ridente is. The views are fantastic. We were very relaxed with the indoor amenities, and the outdoor accommodations. We can highly recommend this villa to future guests. Parking was the only issue we struggled with.

We enjoyed Villa Ridente a lot. It is a nice, well kept place with amazing view.
