They will invite you into their home, share their family history and traditions, and teach you how to cook delicious authentic Italian cuisine. The whole family gets involved: brother, father, mother, and daughter. They have a large garden where they grow most of what you'll cook and eat, including their olive oil and homemade lemoncello. They have orange and lemon trees right outside their door. It was a fantastic time and we'd do it all over again.

Warning! There are about 120ish (I never counted) stairs to get to and from town, hauling your bags down is tough work but it is so worth the effort once you get to the Villa and see those views. The rooms themselves were on the small end but very clean and well stocked, and the room prices were very reasonable compared to places in Amalfi proper. Francesca, our host, was so kind, friendly, and funny. The rest of the staff were so willing to help you and I loved when we would ask for something, and they'd say "of course, this is your house." Just a wonderful atmosphere. You get breakfast every day of your stay, on the first day you fill out the menu of everything you want. We accidentally ordered way too much, depending on your appetite. For a single person: I'd recommend: a coffee, a fruit tray (it's big for sharing), eggs/bacon/toast and maybe one more thing. We also were graciously allowed to take our wedding photos all around the property, and views were so stunning from every angle! We had a lovely time staying at Villa Santa Maria and I hope you do, too!

How much do I love the Villarena? A LOT!…read more I recently had the good fortune to stay here for a week, and it was utter bliss. "Cocktail trees" (growing both limes and lemons) litter the grounds around the serene swimming pool. Lounge chairs are scattered around. The pool area is BLISS! This is an old Roman villa, that has been modernized, and separated into unique rooms and apartments. No two are the same, and there are accommodations for whatever group type or solo traveler you happen to be. I happened to stay (with 3 of my pals) in the Germania, a 2 BR/2 BA apartment, and it was fantastic. My only suggestion would be to get beds that are a touch larger in the downstairs bedroom. Also, the Wifi on the grounds didn't seem to make it inside the apartment, however, on the terrace, it was fine! The full kitchen in this apartment was modern and well appointed. The food. THE FOOD! The Villa has their own private brand of olive oil and wine. The proprietor, affectionately called "Big G" is a sommelier, so there are wine tastings and wine pairing dinners. Happy chickens on site provide eggs for the delicious breakfasts. Lasagne, pizza, pasta . . . any Italian delicacy can be served to you for dinner. Everything was delicious. The staff was A JOY! From the aforementioned "Big G" to Maria Teresa (the heart and soul of the outfit, we love her!) to everyone, a nicer bunch you will not find. Helpful, accommodating, friendly and fun!! If you're a family, there is a playground (complete with a turtle!) for the kiddies. Thankfully, none were present for our stay, but if you need that sort of thing, they can accommodate you! I can't wait to return.
