Pucaré Apartments

Pucare Apartments is truly a hidden gem in Amalfi. It is incredibly authentic and has such a special atmosphere that we absolutely fell in love with it. The entrance itself is beautiful, with a long lemon-lined path leading you into an amazing, huge terrace with a small pool and breathtaking views. The sense of peace and tranquillity is fantastic. We loved it so much that we made sure to spend at least one full day simply enjoying the property — and we did! For my birthday, we used the fantastic outdoor kitchen to prepare our marinated meat, enjoying the sunshine, the beautiful surroundings and the incredible peace of the place. We were also offered their own wine, which was wonderful and made the experience feel even more special. There are so many lovely little corners around the property where you can sit, relax and enjoy the views. There is even a fridge stocked with drinks that you can enjoy while taking in the atmosphere. Our room was spotless, spacious and very comfortable, with a lovely little balcony. Overall, we absolutely loved our stay. The owners are genuinely lovely and clearly look after the property with so much care and love. They have created something really special here — it feels personal, authentic and full of character. Maria was an excellent host and made us feel very welcome. The bus stop is about a 7-minute walk downhill, and it is quite easy to get to Maiori by bus if you don’t want to drive, which is a great option. We will remember our stay at Pucare Apartments very fondly and definitely would love to come back!If you are looking for somewhere peaceful, authentic and full of charm in Amalfi, we would absolutely recommend staying here!

- Maria is super responsive to any question, and can share all information you need to experience the beautiful Amalfi coast. - A true local lemon farm, hidden in the hills. - All facilities and things you didn’t think about upfront arrival. - The view

What a delightful place to stay to explore the Amalfi coast! As all the previous reviews have stated, Maria could not do more as a host and spent a significant amount of time on arrival explaining the areas to visit and a substantial amount of information was sent via WhatsApp referencing local shops and restaurants - extremely helpful to receive at the start of our stay. The Pecare Apartments really was a peaceful haven away from the madness of the Amalfi. We booked the room only option for three people and found the room to be very spacious and well equipped. To have the availability of the outdoor kitchen made our stay even more enjoyable - again brilliantly equipped with the smallest of touches but it made it feel extremely homely and the overall setting was just idyllic. Furthermore, even though you were sharing the facilities with (I think) 5 apartments, the zones that were created in and around the apartments were cleverly designed so you could have your own little area to yourself - all together, the perfect place to relax and enjoy the tranquility of the Italian surroundings. Would strongly recommend to anyone who would like an authentic stay surrounded by lemons!

Just need to be prepared to park up and walk - not massively far or on an incline - but the authenticity of the lemon grove means you can’t drive up to the accommodation. Also being on the Amalfi, there’s no such thing as free parking! So paying €1 per hour between 8am - 9pm was a bit faffy (especially as we kept forgetting to do it as we spent our days coming and going!) But well worth paying and there was even a wheelbarrow contraption on hand to wheel your luggage - Maria had literally thought of every eventuality you could possibly need to make anyone’s stay as comfortable as it can be. A holiday host (not forgetting her lovely family members who kept the whole area spotlessly clean each day) to be highly commended.

All in all a beautiful place to unwind

It is a difficult place to reach, and you should be able to walk a lot.
