A twenty-minute stroll from the intimate cove of Marina di Praia, this pink villa has plenty of traditional charm to make you fall in love with Praiano. Right on your doorstep, you'll discover a trio of bars and restaurants serving excellent refreshments. For history lovers, we recommend visiting the 12th-century Church of San Luca Evangelista, which houses paintings by Giovanni Bernardo Lama.

From the moment you arrive, you'll be taken by the brick fireplace and arched ceilings inside this ancient farmhouse. Roll out of bed each morning feeling refreshed and step out onto your balcony, where you'll be met with spectacular sea views. Share a breakfast of ricotta pancakes with your loved ones and plan an outing around this dining table, then head out on the Amalfi Coast. When you return, open up a bottle of Italian wine and unwind in your private hot tub. Perhaps you'll want to keep things easy with a barbecue picnic on the lawn while the sun sets.

In the heart of the sleepy fishing village of Praiano, in a restored ancient villa, home apartment beckons you to discover another side to the spectacular Amalfi Coast.

Charming 17th century arches and columns frame a picture-perfect view of the Tyrrhenian Sea. Brew a fresh pot of coffee and head to the balcony to catch a sunrise – believe us when we say it's worth the early start. 

After a leisurely morning, head off to explore the town. A less beaten path than its neighbouring town of Positano, this is the place to be if you're looking for authentic Italian appeal. If you're seeking out some of the Amalfi Coast's best nature spots, make sure you add a hike on the 'Path of the Gods' to your itinerary, considered by many to be the best hiking trail in the area thanks to sweeping mountain views of the Mediterranean.

After a day of exploring, head home to relax in the outdoor hot tub, before indulging in a laid-back dinner cooked on the barbecue.

With an absolutely breathtaking view of the Tyrrhenian Sea, this ancient villa couldn’t really be more of a complete package if it tried. Not only does waking up to the panoramic horizon inspire a great sense of relaxation, but the villa itself is pretty with its curving arches and many textures. 

Given its age, the home has seen its share of modernisation, but it has always been done in the most loving and sympathetic way to retain the original charm, and that character is certainly still visible. Picture yourself tucked away on the sofa with a good book, or at the dining table – with the doors flung open – as you catch up on the news with your morning cuppa. 

The only thing better than unwinding inside the home would be doing so outside. With plenty of space to sit, or sprawl out on the sunloungers, if you’d like, you can make yourself comfortable as you admire the glittering blue on the horizon. Take a dip in the plunge pool, dine alfresco, and watch the sunset with an evening cocktail. 

As two bedrooms can only be accessed via the garden, it sets large groups up perfectly so you can retain a sense of privacy but come together in the beautiful, and ample, breakout spaces. 

Walk to Marina di Praia beach, explore the beautiful Praiano, and dine out at any of the nearby restaurants when you’re not in the mood to cook.

Arch Above the Sea

Single-Level Home

For a couple on a romantic getaway, this charming apartment offers a dream love nest, with sweeping views over the magnificent scenery of the Amalfi Coast. While it is located in the heart of Praiano, it also benefits from being removed from the hustle and bustle, giving you a chance to relax and enjoy peace and tranquillity, away from the tourist trails. 

Come back after a day of exploring and unwind in the luxurious hot tub out on the large terrace. From here, you’ll be able to admire the sea and mountains before you, and as the sun begins to set, it truly is a magnificent spot to be. Share romantic meals and delectable Italian wine at the outdoor table and fire up the barbecue for a real alfresco feast.
 
Back inside, you’ll find a bright and elegant living room, with gorgeous Mediterranean details and a comfy sofa, ideal for snuggly evenings of movies. There’s also a dining area for enjoying indoor meals or catching up on any laptop duties you may have outstanding. The well-equipped kitchen may be compact but it’s perfect for rustling quick and delicious snacks. 

For a night of restful sleep and sweet dreams head over to the bedroom, where you’ll wake feeling reinvigorated and ready for another day of coastal adventures. 

Outside your pad, you'll be a short walk away from the many shops and restaurants, and the town's idyllic beaches are also within easy access. 

Path of the Gods 

Free Parking On Street

How about waking up every morning of your holiday on the sun-soaked Amalfi Coast to the vast expanse of blue that is the Tyrrhenian Sea blending seamlessly with the periwinkle hue of the sky above it? Spending your days lounging on the coastline's classically glamorous beaches, where the hardest decision is which of the authentic trattorias to try for lunch today. And when evening rolls around? Slipping into something elegant for a pre-dinner Aperol Spritz on the balcony as the sun dips below the horizon, casting everything in a deep golden light that is unmistakably Italian. Then ambling into the picturesque town of Praiano for a dinner of freshly made pasta in unctuous sauces, freshly grilled fish and vegetables, or mouth-watering meat dishes. Sound good? Well, if it does, then this timeless holiday villa compiling two separate self-contained apartments within it might just be the perfect place to make those dreams a reality. 

Recently renovated to an exceptionally high standard without compromising any of its original charm, this home enjoys a privileged location in the hills overlooking Praiano – just above the famous San Genarro Church and offering panoramic vistas that take in both Positano and the island of Capri bobbing in the distance. 

The home itself is understated in the best possible way. Devoid of any over-the-top or flashy fixtures and fittings, it exudes an easy charm that's perfectly in keeping with its surroundings and the archetypal aesthetics of this part of Italy. Think terracotta tiles, majolica bathrooms, exposed stone and wood beam detailing, and expert placement of fine antiques alongside simpler modern pieces that fulfil a function, and ornate wrought iron balustrades. 

The first of the two apartments, sleeping up to four people in the double bed and on the sofabed in the living area, a fully-equipped kitchen with a spellbinding sea view, and two bathrooms (one en-suite and one separate). The second of the two, accessible only via external stairs, comprises a slightly larger kitchen – again with sea view – a living room, two double bedrooms and bathrooms.

The thing that really sets this home apart though, is that mesmerising view. Open your eyes each morning and be greeted by a sight that is sure to stay with you forever as the soft sounds of waves hitting the rocks below provide an atmospheric soundtrack.

Along the Path of the Gods

With absolutely breathtaking views of the Amalfi coast, this home will give you the feeling of being perched high above the world where time is only a construct and the days bend to your will. Let your eyes roam the steeple of the famous church of San Gennaro, tracking the horizon over parts of Capri and Positano as you sit back on the balcony with a glass of Aglianico. 

Take your time familiarising yourself with the stone arches and traditional terracotta tiles of the home as you feel them between toes and fingertips. With various sets of doors leading out onto the balcony – our favourite being the exit from the kitchen where you can breathe in seasalt air as you put an antipasto platter together – you’ll find the space amply lit and fresh. Dine together at the table that’s ideally located right next to the window – it acts a little like a looking glass, because of the view you can spy through it. 

Spend lazy days taking the steps down to the rocky, One Fire Beach or sitting in a bar nearby. Visit the boutiques in the narrow alleys of Positano and admire the  buildings as they’re cast in golden sunlight. Sample authentic cuisine from the many restaurants and when you return home, put your feet up for some well deserved R&R.

Perched among the rocky cliffs, ancient churches and dramatic beaches, this contemporary apartment invites you to discover the authentic Italian beauty of Praiano. 

Rustle up some breakfast in the kitchen then step out onto the terrace to enjoy it from the outdoor sofa – there's no better way to spend a morning than sipping on a fresh cup of coffee with blue ocean stretching out before you. 

There's much to discover in central Praiano. Head to Marina di Praia beach to observe the colourful fishing boats or cool off in the shallow bay. There's even a beachfront restaurant if you're feeling peckish or just fancy trying some local food on the sand. 

Home to fresh fish and open-air markets, pick up some ingredients in town and head home for a barbecue. Gather around the outdoor table to enjoy an alfresco seafood dinner on the patio and a few glasses of Italian wine. End the evening by perching on one of the sun loungers to enjoy the sun setting over the ocean.

Pastel-coloured fishing villages, rugged shorelines and a long stretch of turquoise ocean surround this contemporary apartment. A favourite among jet-setters, this home puts you in thick of the steep roads and wisteria-draped buildings of the Amalfi Coast.

Step out of your front door and you're on the streets of Positano, which are as dramatic as they are deluxe, and explore the chic fashion boutiques and striking domed churches for a while before grabbing some pizza and heading to the beach to enjoy it on the sand. 

Be sure to pick up some local ingredients before heading home to try your hand at cooking some southern Italian delicacies in the kitchen. Throw open the patio doors to let the sea air fill the apartment, and enjoy ocean views as you tuck in around the dining table. Post-dinner, take your glass of wine out onto the balcony sit down to enjoy breathtaking views of the sun setting over the coastline.

Outdoor Pool

Beach / Pool Towels

Found in the west of Praiano where it lies about twenty minutes away from the bright orange umbrellas of One Fire Beach, this villa has a magnificent view out over the Tyrrhenian Sea.

Climb the steps up towards the villa and find a modern and comfortable home that boasts plenty of natural light, a crisp colour palette, and a beautiful collection of carefully selected tiles for a bit of a colour pop. There’s also a boho feel thanks to the warm, woody furniture and ample windows that keep that connection to the outdoors firmly in place. 

Go from your bedroom into the garden in moments as you escape through the doors – if you’re on the first floor, you’ll have an entire balcony to yourself and we recommend waking up before dawn, at least once, so you can watch the sunset from up there. Spend as much time as possible outdoors, swimming in the private pool, sunbathing in the sunloungers and enjoying snacks and drinks as you admire the view. 

When you’re not taking sunny days easy at home, you can spend them at any one of the beaches you’ll come across as you explore the coast, or find a tucked-away restaurant in Praiano.

Il Panorama

Tucked away in the picturesque town of Praiano on the Amalfi Coast, this abode gazes over the Gulf of Salerno, inviting its guests to soak up the sights and sounds of the water. Each morning the sun creeps across the Italian peninsula and over the gulf, providing an incentive to rise early and embrace the spirit of carpe diem.

The home’s outdoor area is fully furnished with two living areas, comfortable sun loungers, two dining tables and a BBQ area, making it the perfect spot to enjoy a meal or a cocktail while taking in the views. The place consists of two independent units – each has private access but both are connected to the garden area, meaning you can enjoy quiet moments to yourself or spend quality time with your loved ones. 

Located in a peaceful part of Praiano, this property is just a short walk away from sandy beaches and some of the town’s finest restaurants. The only question is, will you want to leave your villa?

The Sun Across the Gulf

With panoramic views visible in every direction – prepare to be awe-inspired from the moment you arrive at this picturesque villa in Praiano. Characterised by its majolica flooring and bright and modern furnishings, this home is a Mediterranea dream come true – and where better than the Amalfi coast to soak it all up from? 

Overlooking the sparkling seascape, the villa's fabulous terrace is where we imagine you'll want to spend most of your time here. So snag a spot in one of the sun loungers, or gather around the alfresco dining area for an Italian aperitivo – it doesn't matter what time of day it is here – there'll always be an authentic refreshment that gives you an excuse to kick back, relax and indulge n the local culture. 

Inside, the open kitchen and living area are dressed in fresh, modern designs and create a comfortable space to use when taking refuge from the sunshine. Likewise, the bedrooms and bathrooms offer a separate room to rest and recharge, ready for days spent soaking up the Amalfi coastline. Positioned just a few steps from the Church of San Luca, from here, you'll be able to reach the beach, restaurants and shops on foot conveniently. 






Postcard from Praiano

This villa caught our eye for its impressive cliffside location, overlooking the Amalfi Coast. Built on three levels, there’s an independent tower on the roof terrace that houses two of the bedrooms, a bathroom and a private balcony. While the tower is more simply furnished than the main house, it gives those staying there privacy. Breakfast is included here for your entire stay, so you can enjoy a leisurely start to the day before relaxing by the pool or sightseeing. And with the popular towns of Positano and Amalfi within easy driving distance, there’s lots to see and do.

Neptune's Hollow

Accessible Parking

This cosy villa nestled in the heart of Praiano is a great base for a romantic getaway or as a retreat for a small family. Boasting breathtaking sea and mountain views from its huge terrace, you’ll be able to immerse yourself in the picture-perfect scenery of the Amalfi Coast here, without even leaving the house. 

Come inside to find a light-filled open-plan living and dining area, with plenty of room for kicking back and relaxing. You’ll be able to snuggle up on the sofa and settle in for an evening of movies and Italian wine or head out onto the terrace to enjoy a romantic supper surrounded by those sweeping vistas. 

For a night of restful sleep, head over to the lovely bedroom, with additional sleeping space in the living room. Wake up refreshed and start your day with a cup of espresso and a delicious breakfast. 

Outside, you’ll find yourself within walking distance of many great restaurants and exciting shops, and the town’s main beach, La Praia, is a twenty-minute stroll away. 

Mambo Italiano 

This recently renovated home in the centre of Praiano is spread across two floors and offers priceless panoramic views of the Amalfi coastline from not one, but two private terraces. Boasting authentically Italian interiors across two kitchens, and two dining and living rooms – think terracotta tiled floors, domed ceilings and awesome archways – this stunning home is sure to seduce. Perfect for socialising as a group as well as sneaking in some quality time with your loved one, this home epitomises the delights of la dolce vita. You’ll love taking your morning coffee out onto the first-floor terrace while gazing out to sea and topping up your tan while lazing on the sun loungers before whipping up bowl of sea food spaghetti and choosing between two swoon worthy alfresco dining spots – beneath the parasol or surrounded by greenery. 

Alternatively, head up to the second-floor terrace where you’ll also be able to lounge as well as barbecue to your heart’s content. Why not prepare a caprese salad to accompany your feast of fresh fish and be sure to have a sundowner in hand come sunset. Trust us, you’ll never tire of those sensational Tyrrhenian Sea views.

Your home’s location on the east side of Praiano means you’re within walking distance of both La Praia beach and local eateries as well as the town’s best fish restaurants. You’d be a fool not to sample some sea urchins, plates of paccheri pasta with red prawns and pistachio cake, all washed down with a zesty Limonce Mojito. If you feel the need to walk off your indulgences, you’ll also be able to join the Path of the Gods, the Amalfi Coast’s most impressive hiking trail.


Walk with the Gods

Discover this home and you’re in for a treat – one which is delightfully quiet and boasts panoramic views across the Amalfi coast. Sounds pretty perfect, doesn’t it? Step inside, and you’ll find interiors that are vibrant and vintage in style. With a traditional antique flair, this villa is home to cosy seating spaces, quaint bedrooms, and is flooded with sunlight which reflects off the white domed ceilings. Our favourite spot here is the outdoor space. No matter where you are in the villa, you’ll find that the sun-drenched terraces are never more than a few steps away. As the sun rises, stroll out to feel the fresh coastal air on your face and the warmth of the Italian sunshine on your skin. This will soon become your little piece of paradise, somewhere you can easily spend your days taking in the views from your sun lounger. As the evening rolls around, you may fancy sampling one of the many local restaurants on your doorstep, after all, nothing beats traditional Italian cuisine. On arriving home, pour yourself a large glass of local wine and enjoy the sun setting over the horizon. 

After a refreshing night's sleep, draw back your drapes and pack your beach bag for a day at the seaside, where you can sink your toes into the sand and enjoy a refreshing dip in the water. Although you’re located in a very quiet spot, you’re central to all the local delights Praiano has to offer. 

Vintage Vibrance

This Praiano home is a stunning place to relax and enjoy an Amalfi Coast escape. With its panoramic views of the Tyrrhenian Sea and the local church bell tower, the terrace is a dreamy spot for sunbathing and dining alfresco. Doze in the shade of a fruit tree before walking twenty-five minutes to La Praia beach, where you’ll find the best seafood restaurants. This home has been beautifully put together, filled with antique and mid-century furniture – look out for Murano glass pendants and restored Art Deco armchairs alongside hand-painted floor tiles.

This sea-facing villa on the Amalfi Coast is a dreamy choice for a luxurious getaway. In addition to a gorgeous outdoor pool, this home has an indoor pool and a spa area with a sauna.

We love the outside space, which includes gardens and a shaded area for alfresco dining. Best of all, from here you can easily explore the Amalfi Coast, including the stunning beaches of Positano. There’s a bus stop nearby, so you don’t even need to bring a car.

There’s also a heated small pool and Jacuzzi with a counter-current feature for fitness lovers. We love the lemon grove pergola too – G&T anyone? Inside, there’s plenty of entertaining space, and all three bedrooms have sea views and an en-suite. What more can you ask for? Well, the villa is located on one of Italy’s most stunning coastlines, so there’s plenty to explore including the towns of Positano and Amalfi (we recommend hiring a car). Or let the host arrange a boat trip to Capri.

The Lemon Grove Pergola

Playground

Children's Dinnerware

Perched among the rocky cliffs, this villa sits at the highest point of Praiano. With views over the sea and nearby mountains, this home offers all of the beauty and Mediterranean charm you could ask for on the Amalfi Coast.

Three separate terraces mean Praiano can be admired from almost every angle - head to the highest one for views over Capri and Positano. 

This home really is a nature lover's paradise, being located on one of the paths that leads to the famous 'Path of the Gods' – a spectacular hiking trail through quaint hillside villages and mythical caves as the deep blue ocean stretches out alongside you. Pack a lunch and take half a day to explore the winding paths and striking scenery. 

When you return, soothe your muscles with a dip in the hot tub. When evening falls and temperatures cool, head to the kitchen or charcoal barbecue to try your hand at cooking some local dishes  – the fish market is the best spot to pick up some fresh seafood. The only place to tuck into an authentic Italian dinner is out on the terrace, over a bottle of wine as the sun descends over the water.

Paradise Pathways

Throws

This is one of those postcard-worthy views. Tucked into the rugged cliffs of Praiano, this calm villa offers uninterrupted vistas over the Amalfi Coast.

Inside, the sociable open-plan living space is bathed in natural light where we imagine you’ll spend time turning pages of your holiday read when the midday sun is at its peak. With multiple spots to take in the sparkling sea panoramas, you might want to start with your morning coffee on the balcony before settling into the loungers for a sun-soaking session. Visit the Positano fish market, then cook up a seafood storm in the charming kitchen, or head to your green-tiled terrace where you can grill your catch on the built-in barbecue. The outdoor dining space is shaded with a sail-shaped parasol and makes for the perfect setting to enjoy feasts at the golden hour. 

Spend the day diving into the crystal clear waters and soaking up the sun on the sands of Marina di Praia, a short drive away. If you’re seeking cultural exploration, make sure to visit the 16th-century Convento di Santa Maria a Castro.

Praiano Paradiso

DVD Player

Within walking distance of Praiano's village centre and a short drive from Positano, Ravello, and Sorrento – this villa grants you easy access to what the Amalfi Coast is best known for. And by that, we mean its views. Visible from the private terrace, you won't have to go far to see what makes this part of Italy so attractive. Whether you are by the infinity pool or gathered around the alfresco dining area – the blue sea views are never far away. Rest and relaxation are encouraged with luxury amenities, including a spa and a Turkish bath. Plus, each morning, breakfast is laid out in the dining area by the villa's kitchen staff, so you won't have to lift a finger. 



The Sea Shimmer

A stay on the Amalfi Coast wouldn’t be complete without a view, and this one won’t disappoint. Sitting on the edge of Praiano’s cliffs, you can enjoy the vistas from every vantage point. It’s not surprising that with a cliffside location, you’ll need to climb some steps – there are 160 between the parking area and 240 down to the sea. And while the interiors are on the more basic side, the outside space is where you’ll want to settle, with a pool, a lounge and an alfresco dining area. And when you're ready for sand, Marina di Praia can be reached on foot, by car or by public bus.

A Paradise on the Hill

With the perfect blend of old-world Italian character, spellbinding views, and a range of up-to-date amenities, we think this is a truly special base for an unforgettable holiday on Italy's inimitable Amalfi Coast.

Perched on a hill above the famous church of San Gennaro on a walkway known as the 'Path of the Gods' the apartment overlooks the pretty town of Praiano, with views of Positano and the glamourous island of Capri in the distance. The centre of Praiano (one of those towns emblematic of this region that clings implausibly to hillsides plunging dramatically into the deep blue waters below) is reachable by means of a set of around 60 stairs, at a distance of around 200 metres. There, not only will you find bags of typical Italian charm, but a wealth of lovely cafés where you can watch the world go by with an aromatic cup of energising espresso, authentic trattoria serving out-of-this-world pasta, seafood, and meat dishes accompanied by freshly grilled vegetables, and higher-end restaurants with panoramic sea views. 

As for the apartment itself? It feels traditional, without feeling dated – seamlessly stitching together fine pieces of antique furniture, with clean-cut modern and functional items, whilst tile flooring and the occasional wooden beam act as a nod to a bygone era. We especially love the exposed stone detailing on the archway in the bedroom area. Could there be a better way to wake up than to open your eyes and see the twinkling waters of Tyrrhenian Sea shimmering before you, as that enigmatic Almafi Coast light streams through the window creating patterns on the ground as it hits the wrought iron balcony?

If you're looking for timeless elegance in an iconic location, then we think this could be the home for you.

Upon A Heavenly Hilltop

If you’re looking for dream-like views, this villa with its wonderful vistas of the bay of Positano really delivers – enjoy them from the pergola, garden or hot tub – the perfect spot to watch the sunset. The bedrooms all have a beautiful seascape to admire too from their windows or balconies. When you’re ready to step out of the villa and explore – there’s Praiano, with its bars, shops and restaurants just a stroll away, while there’s a rocky beach within a ten-minute drive.

Cobalt Daydream

Sat at the foot of the Church of Saint Januarius, overlooking the glittering Tyrrhenian Sea, this laidback apartment is a slice of la dolce vita. Inside, it’s homely and comfortable with patterned tiles keeping things cool underfoot and a compact kitchenette with everything you need for putting together quick bites. Begin mornings with breakfast on the patio, listening to the bells peal as you tuck into flaky sfogliatelle. 

In the afternoon, slip on your flip-flops and mosey through your charming neighbourhood. Stop for an espresso in a local cafe before jumping in the car or hopping on the bus to Marina di Praia Beach. Head home just in time for sunset – pour a glass of your favourite wine and watch the sky burn orange above the indigo water from your private terrace.

Blissful Breeze

Views don't get much better than this. Overlooking the Mediterranean Sea and the islands of Li Galli, this home is an idyllic backdrop for an Amalfi Coast getaway. The terrace makes a prime spot for alfresco meals and sunset cocktails, all framed by the panoramic scenery. Elsewhere in the garden, you'll find a private pool and a hot tub. The interiors are a tad traditional, but with seven bedrooms, the whole brood can spread out comfortably. When you're ready to venture out, Praiano is a short walk away. Or, head further afield to Positano, Amalfi, or Sorrento – a bus running along the coast is just 120 metres away.

It’s just a ten-minute walk from Praia Beach, where water taxis zip passengers to hidden coastal gems, and 5 kilometres from the glamour of Positano. There are shops, restaurants, and bars nearby. The villa is housed in an 18th-century building right on the coast – the sea views are stunning. Enjoy them from the balcony and the rooftop solarium. Relax in the heated indoor pool when you’re not gazing out to sea. One of the two living areas serves as the fifth bedroom, with guests nine and ten sleeping on a sofa bed.

Stunning scenery awaits at this villa in Praiano. While all rooms overlook the sea, the terrace provides the best vantage point. Whether you plan to dine alfresco or sprawl out on a lounge chair, you couldn't ask for a better spot to soak up the panoramas. The interiors are more minimalist, allowing the view to take centre stage. One bedroom is part of a self-contained suite and boasts its own kitchen and lounge space – perfect for guests wanting extra privacy. As for location, Praiano is within walking distance. You can also explore the Amalfi Coast by car – parking is available nearby for an additional fee.

The Seascape

Sauna / Steam Room

Nestled in Praiano, on the coast between Amalfi and Positano and within walking distance of the local beach, this home is perfect for friends or family on an Italian getaway. You’ll need to walk around two minutes to the villa, as it’s only accessible on foot, but when you reach your home-away-from-home, you’ll see the effort is worth it. With butler and chef services amongst many added extras here, you’ll barely need to lift a finger. And, with an indoor and outdoor pool, sauna, and far-reaching sea views, relaxation comes easily. 

Emerald Splash

Nestled into the hillside with far-reaching sea views, it’s not hard to see why this villa in Praiano caught our eye. Sure, its traditional style may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but it’s a perfect base for families on an Italian stay. One bedroom is situated on the mezzanine level and has a king-size and single bed, so while it lacks a little privacy, it’s ideal for a couple with a child. Elsewhere, there’s plenty of space to spread out here, and the cherry on the cake for us is the outdoor space. Sun-kissed terraces, alfresco dining spots and a private pool, what better way to relax?

Summer in Praiano

Bathrobes

This Italian villa grabbed our attention for its front-row location on the Amalfi coast. You can enjoy spectacular sea views from the garden, balconies, and terraces, and you also have direct access to a private beach. Your host can provide breakfast to begin the day at a leisurely pace, and if you’re travelling with children, babysitter recommendations are available. There are lots of stairs to climb here, including a spiral staircase in the home, steep steps in the terraced garden, and steps to the private beach, so it won’t suit everyone. Location-wise, you’re in the pretty village of Conca dei Marini with many picturesque coastal towns, including popular Amalfi, within easy driving distance. 

The Magic of Amalfi

In the sun-soaked village of Positano, this studio apartment is a peaceful idyll within walking distance of the lively shores of Positano Beach. Inside, it’s all crisp white and cobalt blue. Unwind on the loveseat with a cappuccino, basking in a salty breeze that drifts through the Juliet balcony doors. Put together a Caprese salad at the kitchenette then tuck in at the dining table. When you’re ready to explore, slather on your sunscreen and take a gentle stroll through the pastel-hued streets. 

Pick up trinkets in artisanal shops or laze in a seaside cafe. If your itinerary allows for it, take a trip over to charming Montepertuso and embark on one of many hiking routes. Return home in the early evening to watch dusk fall over the shambling rooftops with a tot of limoncello in hand. And when it’s time to get some sleep, the comfortable double bed tempts an early night. 

On a Dream

Desk / Workplace

When you think of Positano, you imagine the incredible views. You may have seen the Instagram posts about everyone trying to find the perfect view for sunset. Well, they're wasting their time – the best view in the city comes from the gorgeous terrace of your villa. But unlike the other popular spots, this view is reserved solely for you. 

Whether you're enjoying your morning coffee on the dining table or lounging on the sun beds, you're perfectly placed to admire the colourful houses and blue stretch of the sea. Of course, the best views are when the orange hues of sunset blend into the deep blue shades of the water. 

If you wander inside the villa, you'll find whitewashed tones and a neutral colour palette. Splashes of bright art is dotted around the villa, lacing the interior with a cheery, upbeat vibe.

When you fancy stretching your legs, you're only three minutes away from the beach. Small and cosy, it's an idyllic spot to lay your towel and catch some gentle rays of the sun. 

Please do note - to access the villa it is necessary to climb approximately 80 steps, however for a home like this it's certainly worth it. 



Stairway To The Sea

There's something rather magical about the view from this apartment nestled within a private park in Positano – ruggedly beautiful cliffsides peppered with dwellings part to reveal a burst of gloriously blue Tyrrhenian Sea and the uninterrupted skyline beyond. It makes for a charming backdrop while you soak up the sunshine or enjoy alfresco meals on the terrace.

Although the apartment itself lies on the smaller side of things, we're quite fond of the bright and contemporary design, particularly the sleek white galley kitchen and the fetching patterned tiling underfoot in the bedrooms. It's a home that's been owned by the same family for more than three decades, but you can certainly tell that it's received plenty of attention in recent years.

The local town of Positano itself isn't large, so most of the attractions are easily reachable on foot, including the golden sands of Spiaggia Grande Positano only 400 metres from the front door. In the wider area, those fond of a hike will appreciate the hilly terrain and walking routes found throughout the Amalfi Coast.

Simply Unforgettable

Enjoy a serene stay at this small but perfectly formed home, located in the heart of Positano, close to many fabulous restaurants and bars that make this coastal village so sought-after with travellers. This home’s crown jewel is in its marvellous large terrace, providing a stunning view out across the ocean, as well as plenty of places to relax in the sun and the shade – the swinging egg chair makes for a great place to sit with a good book, while the covered lounge area is fantastic for having a drink together and watching the sunset. There’s also sun loungers so you can work on your tan.

Inside, you’ll find a gorgeous blue and white colour scheme throughout to remind you of the sea, as well as little decor touches that make it feel like home. We love the country kitchen style dining table, ideal for feasting on tasty salads and pasta dishes – and the sofa and TV provide a nice place to chill out when you need a break from the sunshine.

Ready to venture out? You’ll find plenty to do right on your doorstep – you can enjoy wandering along idyllic winding paths and discovering quaint cafes and vibrant drinking spots – plus the metro station is just a stone’s throw away so you can travel beyond with ease if you choose to.


Blue Roses

With postcard-perfect views of the Tyrrhenian Sea from its private terrace, this home guarantees a holiday to remember. The traditional interiors are charming and cosy, and we loved the nonna-style kitchen for rustling up authentic Italian dishes, enjoyed together in the internal courtyard. Thanks to the flexible sleeping arrangements, this place is ideal for any family or friends travelling together. Location-wise, Fornillo Beach is within walking distance, and you’re not far from Positano's laid-back restaurants and independent shops.

Amalfi Dream

Peering over the Amalfi Coast, this postcard-worthy villa is the perfect Positano escape. With three terraces to choose from, you’ll start your day deliberating where to take breakfast – will it be at the bistro set under the magenta sprays of bougainvillaea or perhaps you’ll dine in the shade by the abundant lemon tree? Afternoons are for doing very little – lazing on a lounger with an ice-cold drink in hand, watching the boats bob on the sparkling Tyrrhenian Sea. 

Inside, there’s a minimalist yet lively approach to the living space. Yellow patterned tiles are a counterpoint to the pristine white walls and we loved the homely feel of the antique cherry wood furniture. The bedrooms are comfortable and cheery and the brightly coloured bathrooms are sure to put a pep in your step in the mornings. 

When you’re ready to explore, Positano Beach is just a short walk from your doorstep and you’re within touching distance of restaurants, bars and independent shops. After a slap-up seafood dinner by the water, return to your abode to watch the sky swirl in pinks and purples as you sip an Aperol spritz.
