Information about the villa

Beauty is difficult to define and it leaves the beholder speechless and breathless. It may be for this reason that the guests at Villa Benedetta write few words in the guest book.

For many of them it is simply the ‘most beautiful house on the Amalfi Coast'. For others it is ‘ a piece of paradise' or simply ‘ paradise ‘ This is not difficult to understand and we proudly represent it as an authentic jewel of local architecture.

Constructed during the golden age of architecture on the Amalfi Coast, Villa Benedetta was for many years the retreat of two classic Italian ladies; two sisters , dedicated to art and culture, who gave birth to a family refuge perched far away from any confusion, every intrusion, every banality and vulgarity of the world.

It is harmoniously set into the rock, facing and overhanging the sea. Villa Benedetta is the ideal residence for whoever wants to rediscover the pleasures and the tastes of the good life.

Surrounded by nature with dream-like glimpses from every window, Villa Benedetta is the perfect house for staying together and sharing precious moments of intimacy with loved ones.

There are no neighbours to disturb, no noise from the world to upset the peaceful quiet of the breezes off the sea, the light of the sky and the perfume of the flowers.

There are many little angles ideal for eating, reading, napping, chatting, being together, hand-holding and getting back in touch. Terraces, sunning spots, little oases of centuries-old Mediterranean brush and a splendid barbecue area complete the exterior of this home that is completely enveloped in the panorama of one of the most fascinating corners of the Gulf of Salerno.

The interior of the home, with a fully- equipped kitchen, 2 bathrooms , living room and 4 bedrooms is comfortable, elegant and rich in style details.

The furnishings are contemporary and the home has all modern comforts including internet service. The beach is directly under the villa and there you will find one of the most beautiful fishing villages on the Amalfi Coast with a little church, bars, wonderful restaurants all scattered here and there along romantic little lanes.

The SITA bus stop which connects to Amalfi and Sorrento and the ‘orange' bus which connects with the centre of Praiano and Positano is a mere 60 steps below the villa.

During the summer season there is boat service for Capri and Ischia and the possibility of private boat rental on the beach.

Reviews of Villa Benedetta

WOW! More than we could’ve ever imagined. We enjoyed our first evening at Villa Benedetta having dinner on the terrace, curated and served by Chef Balda. A candle lit dinner under a beautiful star fall with fresh ocean breezes. Chef Balda meticulously paired each serving with excellent wines. All the food was either from his farm or locally selected. You will never have olive oil beyond his own. All the wines were of his own vintage. Maria, your host, made this recommendation along with many others, from transportation to local dining to grocery delivery!! Maria was thorough, kind, loving and generous with her time and understanding. She was very prompt in her response from before our stay, all the way until we departed. The area is amazing for floating in the Mediterranean Sea, day trip to Positano, water taxis at your request, and good meals right in Marina di Praia. Views from Villa Benedetta were breathtaking, beds were comfortable, views up the mountain and over the sea were equally serene. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets were experienced every day. Cool breezes blew through the house every day. Having A/C units in each room can be very helpful in the warmer months. Praiano is not for the faint of heart as there are steep hills, stairs everywhere…great for beautiful views and walking off the delicious meals. Thank you owners and host very much for a magical, blessed vacation.

Villa Benedetta is an exceptional little “Eagles Nest” high above the lovely cosy beach of Marina Di Praia in Furore, Praiano. We spent 6 wonderful nights at the Villa. First about our host Luca, he is simply a marvelous person who did everything possible to making our stay at the villa as comfortable as possible, Even before we got to Italy, we were in constant communication and Luca (& Tina) provided us so much useful information - they advised us about what to do, restaurants, places to go, transportation, etc. Luca arranged a taxi to pick us at Amalfi and bring us to the villa and he was there to receive us(he even my heavy bag up all the stairs to the Villa!). He had stocked the kitchen with groceries. The villa itself is far better than the photos, views are breathtaking, the Villa is tastefully decorated. It is exceptionally clean and has everything one would need. Location is fantastic with bus stop on doorstep.The best place we stayed on Amalfi Coast. Grazie Mille Luca!

5/5 stars! We had an absolutely fantastic 3-night stay at Luca's property on the Amalfi Coast! The apartment was stunning, with breathtaking views of the Mediterranean Sea and a perfect location to explore the surrounding towns. Luca was an exceptional host, providing us with a warm welcome, helpful recommendations, and ensuring that we had everything we needed during our stay. The apartment was immaculate, beautifully decorated, and equipped with all the necessary amenities. We particularly appreciated the detailed guide to the local area. The Amalfi Coast is a truly special place, and Luca's property and hospitality made our stay truly unforgettable. We can't wait to return! Grazie mille, Luca, for a wonderful stay!

The villa has absolutely INCREDIBLE views of the marina with a wrap around terrace, the photos on the listing don’t even do it justice! Every room has a great view too. For italy beds were very comfortable, spotless linens and extra pillows. The AC also worked perfectly for Amalfi in August. Yes there are many steep stairs to the villa from the road but I could do it six months pregnant in August, so so can you! And it’s 100% worth it for the views. The marina below the villa is peaceful, has restaurants and a beautiful beach. Luca met us at the bus stop and was very responsive and communicative, he even arranged an early check in after our red eye flight which saved our lives. This place is such a gem and a peaceful solace away from the tourist craziness in Amalfi, would definitely stay again!

Sans surprise, les vacances que l’on aime. Bel emplacement, le soleil, la mer et l’ambiance typique de l’Italie.
