Beautiful home, very friendly family hosts.
This house is perched on a hill overlooking the bay of Naples. Sunsets from the patio are amazing. The villa has three apartments, two with the owner & parents- they create a warm, welcoming family atmosphere. The garden is beautiful. The house is really well laid out for family holidays. Exactly as described.
The nearest family pizzeria is a 5 minute walk- good & very cheap! Local shops include tiny supermarket that has most essentials, veg shop & cafe/ice cream/currency exchange. The town of Vico Equense has some good restaurants & nearby beaches. We visited Sorrento (about 40 mins away)- parking centrale was reasonable price & near shops/restaurants. Pompeii was a 45 min drive towards Naples & worth seeing- also visit the archeological museum in Naples to see artefacts from the site.
The house is only really accessible with a car (although there is a bus service that takes you much of the way). Walking is arduous (although fun & stunning views). Driving is quite scary- ***the roads are very narrow, hilly & winding**. Driving is true to local reputation so if you drive- pay for all extra insurance & hire the smallest car possible- Fiat panda/500 or similar. We had an amazing time- thank you Raffaele & family.
