My wife and I stayed at our castle by the sea for a week this past September. Our stay was wonderful, our host Guido was very accomodating and communicated with us very quickly when we had a question. The castle was very rustic and had amazing views! Our suite had everything you need for a weeks stay, including a very nice welcome basket of goodies when we arrived! Grazie mille again Guido !! The castle is centrally located and is walking distance to the local bus, train stations, local shops and restaurants. It's a quick 15 mins train ride to Sorrento and was only 2 euros each (one way). We rode along with a bunch of kids going to school to the neighboring towns one morning, it was kinda cool. We would definitely stay there again our next time were in that part of Italy, highly recommended!!

We had a wonderful family stay at Castello Guisso! The apartment had everything we needed (except maybe an extra key) for our 5 night stay. It was warm, so some of us used the pool, and the garden and castle grounds are nice, with a lovely view. There was one evening outdoor event on a Saturday night and the music is quite loud. We enjoyed the music and enjoyed watching the guests, so it did not bother us at all. But if you have toddlers who go to bed early or are concerned about open staircases inside the apartment this might not be the place for you. For us it was perfect.We also loved Vico Equense, and it is easy and convenient to take the local train to Sorrento, Pompeii, or Herculaneum. Be aware that the trains are very crowded so might be difficult with luggage, and you might have to stand. But works great to get around. Vico Equense has some nice restaurants and way fewer tourists than Sorrento, Positano, etc. I highly recommend!

The location is unique. Vico Equense is not only lovely but close to Naples and the wonderful Amalfi coast. The appartment is cozy.WiFi is kind of spotty but should be easy to fix.Guido sent us a lot of informations and made us feel welcome to his place.Thank you !
