Villa Imperamare

I’ve travelled extensively in Italy for 25 years and can say Villa Imperamare is up there with the very best. We stayed for 10 nights and from the initial very warm welcome by Alfonsina, and later Annarosa, it was faultless. The rooms are modern with an excellent bathroom, very comfortable beds and spotlessly clean. Regular towel changes and beds are made up each morning. Breakfast was ideal, choices of local meats, cheeses, eggs, coffee aplenty, bread or croissant with jams ect, and not forgetting a selection of cake made daily “fatto a casa” including the one with lemons from the garden. Set in a lovely garden, with resident duck Inca, Imperamare is a quick 10 minute walk downhill to all of SM Castellebate’s many beaches, two mins to lovely bars and restaurants and a 10 minute walk to a free parking area. The Trotta sisters are wonderful, friendly hosts, take great pride in what they do and were happy to indulge two Scots trying out our limited Italian over breakfast and always electing to speak back in Italian. Molte grazie Alfonsina e Annrosa, alla prossima

All perfect.

What an amazing gem in Santa Maria. Host Alfonsina and her beautiful family hosted us for 3 nights. We were welcomed with open arms even before arrival, with great communication and a taxi organised for us. The accommodation is absolutely perfect for a couples get away and the hospitality that this place provides is family-like! Great recommendations, friendly chats and amazing authentic Italian connections. Could not recommend this place more highly! Chace & Lori

We should have stayed longer.

Everything. Especially the hosts who were the most genuinely welcoming and hospitable people I’ve ever met in all my many years of travelling. As a solo traveller I had the most pleasing and large room. The breakfasts were very good (I can recommend the home made cake) with lots of coffee! The location was great with a short walk to the sea, cafes and restaurants.

I’m cannot think of anything I didn’t like. Although the property is near a bus stop I would recommend having one’s own transport.

Easy to find using Google maps. Park outside to unload and then the allocated parking spaces are nearby: 1bout 10 minutes walk. Met by one of the owners and given plenty of information. Generally made to feel extremely welcome. Pleasant garden with seating...and the resident pet duck!

Pay attention when arriving in Santa Maria as narrow roads around the Villa.
