Why we chose it

The hillside position creates a sense of seclusion rare along this densely developed coastline, yet maintains the dramatic sea views that define the Amalfi Coast experience. The combination of traditional Italian villa architecture with modern amenities like the sauna and steam room elevates this above typical coastal rentals. Unlike most properties at this level, the multiple terraced outdoor spaces create distinct zones for different times of day and activities. The mezzanine bedroom arrangement is particularly clever for families, offering children their own space whilst keeping parents nearby. One of the few properties in Praiano that delivers both authentic Italian character and the contemporary comfort expected by discerning travellers.
