About The Experience

This multi-level, self-catering villa near Sorrento is immersed in greenery, with panoramic views from a number of different outdoor terraces and seating areas. You'll love cooking outdoors at this Sorrento accommodation with an authentic wood burning oven, or strolling around town until you find just the right restaurant. And who needs a pool when you're so close to the beach and the bay?

Location Description

This villa rental is located near the center of Sorrento, looking down over the city and some amazing ocean views. Going into the heart of Sorrento itself, you'll find yourself in a thriving seaside community, filled with life, good food, and great shopping. Sorrento is famous for two things you can't miss: Limoncello (an alcoholic aperitif) and inlaid wood. The workshops of Sorrento were the first to use the technique of arranging small pieces of wood into intricate patterns, a practice which has been refined and perfected through generations. Take the time to find and visit one of the workshops still in operation today-- you won't regret it! There are also a couple of places you ought not to miss. The first is the 10th century Basilica di San Antonio. Saint Anthony is the patron of navigators, and sailors have made thousands of votive offerings at his tomb in the crypt. The 11th century Cathedral is also beautiful, housing some frescoes and a bell tower with a ceramic clock. The cloisters of Saint Francis are interesting because they have been "restored" many times over the centuries, resulting in an impressive display of architectural styles from late gothic to the renaissance. The "Sorrento Summer of Music" is also held at the cloisters, every year from July to September, and features international musicians performing alongside of emerging musical talents.

Exterior Description

The villa stands in one of the most panoramic areas of Sorrento, on the rise above Marina Grande, the old harbour which still has the typical old fisherman's houses and is the most typical and interesting place in the town. In the evening its many restaurants come to life with echoes of the famous neapolitan songs of the past. You can reach the centre of town on foot as it's only 400 meters away, though the road is narrow and is not suitable for large cars, so only small cars can park in front of the villa, whereas public parking is 350 meters away. The house is surrounded by a large garden (1,000 m2) with terraces on several levels, with paved areas furnished with tables, barbecue and a wood-burning oven, from where you can enjoy the marvellous panorama of the Gulf of Naples. You can swim in the sea at Marina Grande, which can be reached by public transport, or by taking the car to Marina di Puolo (about 2.5 kms). The center of Sorrento is very lively and offers shopping and very good quality restaurants and bars.
