Villa Aristide is situated in the upper part of Praiano. It can easily be reached by car and there is covered parking available in the small piazza beside the entrance. The original old structure, which probably was part of a convent, has been recently renovated and divided into two separate independent parts, one of which is occasionally occupied by the owner. Both have independent gardens and entrances.
