An oasis surrounded by greenery at the gates of the Amalfi coast

The house is amazing. Large bedrooms with comfortable beds and plenty of storage. The bathrooms are large, modern, with great showers and - again - plenty of space for everyone to store their bits and bobs. The gallery offers plenty of comfortable opportunities for lounging inside together but is spacious enough so not to feel cramped. The large open plan kitchen/dining room/ living room is another versatile space that is well laid out and furnished. The itchen offers everything you could want, whether you just want to make breakfast and a salad, or cook more substantial meals.The grounds are stunning. Bursting with flowers that fill the air with heady scents there are four separate areas for sitting/lounging outside. The pool is a saltwater pool which is great because it eliminates the dreaded chlorine smell. The shower by the pool actually has good water pressure and if you need a heated shower, the pool/utility/changing room offers that.The house and Cava de' Tirreni in general are an amazing base for exploring Naples, Salerno, the Amalfi Coast and the archeological wonders of Pompeii, Hercolaneo, Paestum and many more. Cava itself offered everything we ever wanted and was a welcoming and vibrant city without being as overbearing as Naples.But the thing that really set this property apart and made it a holiday HOME is the host, Ilaria. She helped us in so many ways, always there to assist without ever being intrusive. The best host we have had in all our travels.

Ilaria was excellent at looking after us. This the our third visit and it gets better every time. Amazing villa. See you again.

The host is awesome! Communication from the day we booked until the day we departed was excellent. We stayed here for two weeks. The property is large enough that allows everyone the ability to have their own space or gather around the pools. There are two pools essentially and it is a great wind down area after a day of sightseeing. The four bedrooms allows everyone the privacy they want. I would stay at this property again!

When we found this villa on Vrbo, it was described as an oasis at the gateway to the Amalfi Coast and on driving through the gates we found this to be totally true. The views from the house, pool and gardens were absolutely breathtaking and many evenings we sat on the terrace transfixed by the sunset, not moving until it was properly dark. The house itself is nicely decorated and very spacious. Perfect for our family of 4 although a family of 6 or 7 would have also been very comfortable. Our host Ilaria was very warm and friendly, doing all that she could to ensure we made the best of our holiday. She met us in the town on our arrival to show us the way up into the hills where the house is located and was constantly available with any questions we had and suggestions for places to visit or eat. The location was so convenient to take advantage of the Amalfi Coast and beyond by either boat from nearby Salerno or car, and the archeological sites of Pompeii and Paestum were also very accessible. It was very hard though to tear ourselves away from the pool, beautiful gardens and breathtaking views.
