Positano, Campania
Villa dei Germogli is situated just 3.5 km from Positano, along the panoramic road leading from Sorrento to Positano, Amalfi and Ravello. The villa's name is inspired by the fact that it is completely immersed in a vast olive-grove which stretches over the cliff terraces and overlooks the sea. The villa is 310 metres squared and can accommodate up to 12 people. It extends over 7 hectares and is cultivated with olives and fruit trees. It boasts a wealth of fascinating footpaths that climb up the sea-facing slope of the mountainside.
Villa dei Germogli is built around a 6 x 10 m swimming-pool and is surrounded by open-air living-rooms with bamboo furniture, which provide delightful meeting points for guests. The villa has 4 separate areas which are spread over different levels. The ground floor has a large living-room with a fireplace and TV and access to the garden. Two of the four double bedrooms, which all have ensuite bathrooms with showers and air-conditioning, are on the ground floor. One of the double bedrooms also has a single bed so can accommodate up to 3 guests.
The second area is on a raised floor and has a 'suite' with a double bed, bathroom with hydro-massage shower and a large living room with access to private terrace. The third level has the final 'suite' with a double bed, single bed, bathroom with shower and private terrace. The fourth area is on a raised floor and boasts a large kitchen with dining area. There is also a fifth bathroom with a shower on this level. These four levels are connected to one other by fascinating external paths which has enabled the creation of a fantastic garden, rich in vegetation and full of enchanting secret corners.
Villa dei Germogli has large panoramic terraces with plenty of bamboo furniture so that you can dine 'al fresco' whilst enjoying the stunning sea view. As the villa is divided into several areas, each of the four double bedrooms is a stunning 'suite' which are skilfully furnished and inspired by different styles including rustic, eighteenth century and oriental. All the suites have fully equipped bathrooms and the two main suites also enjoy wide panoramic windows and air-conditioning. Villa dei Germogli is equipped with all modern conveniences such as TV, stereo, dishwasher, washing-machine and WIFI internet connection.
Its wonderful location means that all the main sights are within easy access including Sorrento (only 15km), Positano and its beautiful beaches (only 3.5km) and Naples (only 60km). We a recommend a car when staying here, although there is a bus stop 150 metres away. If you do have a car, you can park it in the secure, gated area. There is space for up to 3 mid-sized cars.

My family and I loved staying at this beautiful villa. It was so beautiful and in the perfect location. Carmine was amazing from start to finish. Check in was a breeze. He cooked for us and even did a cooking lesson with us! He did such a great job in helping us plan our day trips. I would recommend this villa to anyone!!!!
Very well-positioned estate with all the amenities needed for a great stay; pool, indoor/outdoor kitchens, great staff at your disposal, patios, shade, panoramic views, etc. The staff is available to make all your plans and offer ideas for wonderful days and nights. Enjoy.
Villa was very nice and the views were awesome. All staff were very accommodating. Great location.
Property truly impressive - lots of space, all the facilities you could want (we also made full use of the wood burning bbq and pizza oven). The only only thing preventing a 5 star review is the stretch of road in front seems to be used over the weekend for unofficial motorbike racing making it a bit noisy for 2 of our 7 days.
The villa was everything the photo's lead you to believe. A beautiful property with with olive and lemon trees, flowers and a postcard view. A great base location to visit Pompeii, Sorrento, Ravello and Capri. Positano was beautiful and a short ride (recommend using local transportation as it is can be a challenging ride and parking in Positano is at a premium). All involved with the villa were absolutely wonderful and responsive. Sarah did a great job with the housekeeping and Enzo was awesome keeping the grounds maintained. (speak to Enzo about transportation needs in and out of Positano and a local restaurant; La Terra in Montepertuso!). Carmine helped arrange all of our activities and also was the chef for our home cooked dinner at the villa......he was professional, responsive and could not have been more reliable). Nothing to complain about here!
Our hosts met us at the villa just as arranged and helped us with directions and everything we asked of them. The villa is so beautifully located on Amalfi Coast few minutes away from Positano. We had favorite restaurants, cafes and trattorias within few minutes drive! The villa is huge. We couldn't believe our luck after small places we had stayed at elsewhere in Europe. We would highly recoomend the villa and would not hesitate to book the villa again for next year. Professionalism is everything when booking a holiday specially in Italy.
This villa was above and beyond our dreams. It is a beautiful four level home with every comfort you could want or need. Carmine was an amazing activity organizer, chef, director, transport organizer..you could not go wrong with any recommendations he made. He organized everything we could possibly want and more. Not to mention patience with 9 women!! Sara was amazing and you felt like family by the time you left. She was so kind and considerate. Thank you Enzo too, for checking on us, upkeep of the area and spending time with us. The villa was beautiful..you felt like you were in a beautiful resort with just your family and friends. Thank you for a truly wonderful experience!
We were very pleased with our find in this property. It lived up to the descriptions with separate buildings on either side of the pool dripping in Bougainville villa. Vincenzo and Sara, the brother and sister who maintain this property were fantastic - happy to engage with us and give advice on places to eat and visit. They worked every day on the grounds and cleaning the rooms and kitchen and even doing laundry! There are multiple decks on this property, more of a compound, offering stunning views of the bay and the island once owed by Rudolf Nureyev! The driveway is tricky to access from the winding road in front but once inside the gates, the property is superb. I highly recommend this property. Positano, Sorreto, Pompeii and Vesuvious are nearby and we spent an unforgettable day on a private boat around Capri - well worth a full day of vacation.
I am hesitant in recommending this villa, as I want this place to remain my secret. However my good side tells me it's only fair to share our experience. The villa is well located, extremely clean and has everything you could wish for. The views from the terrace were incredible and we just found ourselves saying nothing to each other for hours and just staring at the view. The olive trees created a great backdrop for our BBQs on the terrace. The owner of the Villa and his family are delightful and always happy to help, they made our trip very special.we can't wait to return. It is a short drive to the town of Positano where you can but fresh produce, the evenings are lovely in the town with music playing and some kind of orchestra on. We were also lucky to be there when there was a festival and saw the fireworks set off from the sea.
