An expansive outdoor terrace with cushioned lounge seating and terracotta planters filled with flowering plants frames views across the Mediterranean to Capri's distinctive Faraglioni rock formations rising from the sea.
A white-walled guest bedroom features antique wooden Oxford College heraldic shields mounted above the bed, decorative patterned floor tiles, and French doors that open to a private terrace with views over the Mediterranean Sea.
Faraglioni Frills is a 4-bedroom villa in Capri with direct access to Torre Saracena beach, one of the island's most exclusive coastal positions above Via Krupp. The villa commands panoramic views across Marina Piccola to the iconic Faraglioni rock stacks rising from the Mediterranean, with pine-shaded terraces draped in bougainvillea providing the perfect vantage point for Capri's legendary sunsets. White vaulted ceilings and antique details create classic Caprese character throughout the interior spaces, though the furnishings show their age in places. The real distinction here is the privileged beach access: whilst most Capri villas require a journey down to the coast, Faraglioni Frills offers Torre Saracena beach just steps away, providing crystal-clear waters and relative privacy on an island where beach access is fiercely contested. A private chef can be arranged to take full advantage of the alfresco dining spaces, where the combination of sea views and Mediterranean cuisine creates the quintessential Capri experience. This villa serves groups of up to 8 guests seeking the rare combination of elevated position and immediate coastal access.
