Massa Lubrense, Campania
The Villa is located in a private property in the hills of Sorrento (10 min by car).
Completely immersed in the typical Mediterranean vegetation, you can enjoy the sun on a deck overlooking the sea of the Gulf of Sorrento.
Lemon groves line the long driveway, their scent will permeate from the entrance! In this little corner of unspoilt paradise you will be surrounded only by the sounds of nature.
The local stone house is well maintained and the attention to detail will surprise you.
The Villa consists of 3 bedrooms, two with double bed and one with two single beds, two bathrooms, one with Jacuzzi and the other with hydromassage shower. A kitchen equipped with every comfort: gas burners, electric oven, microwave, toaster, kettle, crockery. Finally, a large lounge with TV. In addition, the Villa has free wifi and air conditioning. outdoor swimming pool with sun loungers and deck chairs, large garden with table and chairs. Ample parking in front of the Villa.
This property is amazing- from the view, the patio and the comfort of the house. Alfonso is so easy to communicate with. He answered any questions that we had. Each day he or his father delivered fresh produce from their gardens and eggs from the chickens. When we arrived he had meats and bread for sandwiches, chips, cookies and drinks in the fridge. The house is a little tricky to get to in a car (we had an Audi C3- no bigger!) but they met us at Ristorante Il Borgo and showed us the way. This restaurant was recommended by Alfonso and we loved it- stunning view, nice staff, delicious food. Would love to stay here again! We had a wonderful stay.
I was left very disappointed with this Villa. My expectations are usually fairly low. This Villa promised so much, but after arriving and taking my socks off, to finding the bottom of my feet black within 5 minutes - this theme continued over the course of the week. It needs a generous clean. There are cob webs everywhere and people are randomly working as you try to enjoy the garden which is also quite surprising and you’re not sure who people are or if they should be there. You simply cannot get anywhere by foot, you rely heavily on Alfonso arranging transport. Sadly, the transport that’s arranged is ridiculously overpriced and for literally what is a 4 minute journey there and back costs €40 each time. It felt like a continuous shake down exercise since arriving. Alfonso arranged a transfer when we left for the airport. The man who had been overcharging us the entire time, promised car seat and bigger car. He arrived 45 minutes late and without a car seat. We had to pick one up, making us late for our flight which we missed and had to rebook. All because this man must have wanted the transfer fee. There is no entertainment for the evening in the Villa. A few programmes in Italian, the TV needs upgrading to have Netflix or something neutral for audiences of different countries.
Really great place! Getting in and out is a little tricky. We love the hike from the Villa into town down a charming path. If you enjoy walking, it’s a great way to get to town. The family was extremely hospitable. Consider cooking your own meals there as they have a great outdoor barbecue and eating area. You will enjoy this villa!
Quiet and Peaceful, this villa is the perfect place to unwind. Perfect. Absolutely lovely Alfonso will do everything to make you feel at home; so kind, helpful and incredibly friendly!! Fresh tomatoes and eggs! Gorgeous olive oil! Space and Green! We have built super memories and the children finally understand what it is to see the deep blue from afar - and sit down only to enjoy what this magnificent part of the world can offer! Do not think twice. Samia M
We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful property, away from the busy tourist spots.
Really enjoyed our stay. The villa is truly special, in a beautiful and quiet location, a great escape from the bustle of Sorrento.
The property just seems impossible. You’re in an air conditioned villa nestled in an olive grove, surrounded by lemon trees, far above the Tyrrhenian Sea. With a swimming pool. It had me feeling a little imposter syndrome…I am not accustomed to the villa life. My only caution about this idyllic place, is that you have to be comfortable with driving in some tight spots. You will want to rent an appropriate vehicle. We had an Audi Q2 and that would be the absolute biggest car that could work.
Dear Franco, Alfonso & Family, Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful home with us. The view is spectacular & it is so peaceful; and thank you Franco for all the fresh eggs from your chickens & the fresh vegetables, Lemons, oranges from your gardens. Thank you Alfonso for all your advise!!! We highly recommend this place to anyone to enjoy! Barbara & Mark from B.C. Canada
What a great place and what a wonderful time we had. Alfonso was a terrific host and was most accommodating. The views from the Villa are incredible!
We have just enjoyed a delightful week at Alfonso’s villa which is stunningly situated in an olive grove in the hills behind Sorrento. The villa was immaculately clean and well provided with everything we needed for our stay. The views from the beautiful garden balcony were magnificent and the pool was safe and adequate for our three children. Sorrento is a 30 minute walk away but as the hill is very steep you will need to hire a car. Nerves of steel are required for the narrow and busy streets but with so many great destinations a short drive away a car is really a must. Alfonso was a wonderful host, nothing was too much trouble. Every day we were left baskets of eggs, tomatoes, figs, peaches and lemons from the extensive gardens. We enjoyed visits from a family of cute cats and especially tiny fluffy kittens which were a huge hit with our girls. Thank you so much for your generosity during our visit Alfonso, it won’t be forgotten.
We had a great stay at this house about 15 min outside of Sorrento. Alfonso and his brother were very helpful in the lead up and during the stay. We appreciated the personal attention that the family provides to the property and to their guests. Alfonso’s father regularly visited to check on his garden and chickens without ever being intrusive. The welcome basket with hone-grown produce was excellent. Also, the air-con also was very comfortable at night, Although we would return without hesitation, I would recommend this property to experienced and confident drivers only. Take the advice seriously to rent a small car. An option that worked well for our family of 5 was to have a van transfer to and from Naples with a small Fiat rented from Sorrento. We were even able to stop for a pizza lunch in Naples. Alfonso was very helpful in assisting with the booking of the transfer and a transfer for my husband to the car rental agency. Lastly, the views from the terrace were beautiful and will be remembered.
