Ancient villa with fantastic sea view and swimming pool just a few minutes from Positano

Absolutely amazing! This was a very historic house that was in pristine shape. The ceilings in the bedrooms, bathroom and entrance were stunning. And the view of the Mediterranean from the pool deck was unbelievable. The owner was very helpful and easy to communicate with. On top of that, we mentioned that our anniversary was on that Thursday, and on Thursday, they delivered a Happy Anniversary cake. I would rate this property a 13 out of 10. I highly recommend this house.

Villa Antica in Praiano was absolutely stunning! The views of the Amalfi Coast were breathtaking, and the villa itself was spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated. The location was perfect—peaceful yet close to great restaurants and beaches. Highly recommend for an unforgettable stay!

Beautifully cared for and the ease of communication was excellent. We will return!!!

Our family very much enjoyed the Villa. The details, outdoor spaces and views were all wonderful.

The place is spectacular! The views are excellent the location is great 10 min from Positano. The attention to detail is amazing tiles and colors. It has everything you could need. Luigi was very responsive and a huge help in sharing details about the area and places to eat and shop etc. There are a good amount of steps but doable. We felt incredibly welcome. Highly recommend this property. Thak you thank you!

Amazing stay. Beautiful property. Description accurate. Luigi very kind and flexible. All in all 100% to be recommended

Beautiful view, property, and pool. Gracious host. Gorgeous restoration with their family’s beautiful ceramics tiles. Totally loved our time. Praiano has delicious and welcoming restaurants too.

Absolutely perfect.

The villa was perfect for our family of 4. We loved the location - quiet and off the beaten path! The house was well appointed with comfortable beds and the swimming pool was a bonus! The kitchen was perfect to make meals at home and the views from the terrace were prime! Luigi was very helpful with information at check-in and told us stories of the original owners. 5 star stay!

It was by far the nicest place we stayed in Italy. The owner, Luigi, went above and beyond at the beginning of our stay. The villa was stocked with everything you need. The pool was a great bonus after walking up all those stairs. The views were unbelievable from all the terraces. The bed was also comfortable.

Exceptional villa! Loved every minute. Thank you Luigi

If you like stairs the village of Praiano is your place. If you have any mobility issues I’d select another area. Loved it Luigi answered all of our questions and needs

Simply unbelievable- the home, the location, the gracious host. A beautiful taste of Italy with gorgeous accommodations and views, great dipping pool, comfortable beds, and well stocked kitchen. As with all houses in this area, dozens of steps to and from the home so make sure you have healthy legs and lungs. It’s worth every step. And big thanks to Luigi and family - such kind hosts with outstanding communication and hospitality. Thank you! Would stay at this home again and again!

Everything was even better than we could have imagined. The hospitality, views, pool, terrace and ambiance were perfect and Praiano is the perfect less-busy spot between Amalfi and Positano. We are very grateful to have had the opportunity to stay here and enjoy the breathtaking Amalfi coast.

We stayed for one week and used the villa to explore the Amalfi Coast and to spend some calm days at the villa with the breathtaking view from the terrace and pool. The host Luigi was always available and his son was a great support with the luggage and for check in. The villa offers everything you could think of, a fully equipped kitchen, a lovely pool, fully air-conditioned, comfortable beds etc.

We had an amazing stay at this Villa. Luigi and his wife and son were very helpful with the planning of the trip and helped with some excursions during our stay. It is a very quiet and peaceful villa, however there are a lot of steps to get to the villa. My only complaint would be the walk to the villa with heavy luggage and wish that we were a little closer to the main town and restaurants.

Start to finish - beautiful clean and spectacular Luigi is the best to work with His family helped us immensely Make sure renters know there are a lot of steps which we were fine with but some may struggle 5 stars!

This villa is amazing with breathtaking views. The host provided great information relating to transportation services and recommendations. He also had snacks and food in the pantry which we used for a meal! The location is in a very quiet neighborhood so if you’re looking for peace away from the crowds, this is for you. It is a bit of a walk from any food and the closest pickup spot for a taxi is about a 5 minute walk. The cost of a taxi to Positano is ~€50. The nearest bus stop is about a 15 minute walk and it’s only a €2 ticket. WARNING** There are two types of buses; a smaller shuttle type bus and a large city type bus. We took the small one to Positano and tried to take the large one back to Praiano and ended up waiting an hour and a half because the larger one travels the entire Amalfi Coast. Stick to the smaller one if you can. Both are the same price. There are a LOT of stairs, however, it seems like the entire coast is like that. The pool was definitely a necessity for our 4 night stay. Our stay was in June and it’s toasty. Was nice to cool down after laying out, or after a long walk home. The closest beach is about a 20 minute walk down and 30 minute walk back up. Overall it was very spacious with great amenities and architecturally beautiful!

Great place to stay in Praiano. A wonderfully appointed house, beautifully decorated and with a pool!. The views are spectacular as are the cool breezes that flow through the numerous windows. We LOVED this place.

We loved this place. Luigi and Virginia were great host. The villa and the view were spectacular. The host were easy to communicate with and extremely accommodating. We will be visiting again.

Where do I begin? Luigi, from helping us with our luggage, (sorry we had so much of it.) Having soda, water, breakfast items for us, we even found pasta in the cupboard so we enjoyed a meal on the terrace. This family villa is absolutely breath talking. We took a day to lay pool side. There is a local bus just for Praiano. The Sita bus down the hill and a local bus that operates to and from Postiano. We took the local bus, its very easy to get in the morning, make sure you have change. We bought our tickets right on the bus for 1.80 euro one way to Postiano. Luigi's family owns the local ceramic factory in Postiano. Absolutely gorgeous tables and benches and more. The product hold s up in any type of weather. You must stop in and check it out for yoursef. The washer machine was a wonderful thing to have and I was able to dry my clothes rooftop in a day. All the details, soaps, shampoo, slippers, the bedding and comfortably slept well. The churchbells were beautiful to listen to. Enjoying a bottle of wine on the terrace. Watching the kids play soccer at the courts below. There are steps to get here. Your taxi will stop at the square, then a few steps, long pathway and more steps down. Yes i was out of breath on day one. Day 3 it got easier and easier. Would I stay here again? Absolutely!! It was so much nicer than being in the other busier towns. We loved every minute of it. THANK YOU for your hospitality.
