Amalfi Coast SEAFRONT Villa carved into the rock,Private Pool,Cave-Bar,Concierge

Located along the breathtaking Amalfi Coast (exactly halfway between Sorrento and Positano, both about 4 miles away), our property is a bright and sunny four-story villa carved into the ancient stone of a magnificent seaside cliff, sheer above the sea. The property's amazing panorama of the sea and the small Li Galli islands (legendary home of Mermaids) will leave you with visions you will never forget.

The main Villa features 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms (plus 2 half baths) and can accommodate up to 8 people (2 extra sofa-beds are available at small extra charge).

Paradise carved in the side of the mountain.
My family had a fabulous time at this beautiful villa. Once you go through the door from the street, you enter a magical place. The path to the villa is breathtaking and is filled with beautiful plants and scenic overlooks. Each time you walk the path you discover something new. The villa itself is very charming. The views were magnificent. Our favorite spot was the cave bar where we hung out every evening. Our host Vincenzo helped plan excursions to wineries, day trips, boat trip to Capri, arranged drivers for us and provided us with recomendations for great restaurants. Our favorite evenings at the villa were eating delicious dinners prepared for us by local chefs. We had a pasta cooking class, a seafood dinner and a pizza making night. We felt a connection to all of his associates and will miss everyone. I wish I had the words to describe the feeling of living in a place with such inspiring beauty. Others decribe this as a once in a lifetime vacation, as it is, however I'm going back.

Amazing experience
Wow! This villa’s beauty is indescribable. No photos could do it justice and my description will surely fail as well. My family of six adults (two couples and two individuals— so occupying four bedrooms) had an amazing stay that we will remember for a lifetime. We enjoyed the “off season.” The weather was mild and not too cold to enjoy the expansive outdoor space and the Amalfi and Sorrento coasts were calm without being desolate. Overall a relaxing, beautiful experience. Highly recommend

This villa is like living in a dream!
This villa is amazing! First off words and pictures will never do this place justice, you have to see it in person. We came across the villa on VRBO and immediately fell in love with it, it looked unique and it definitely was. We were a total group of 10 people, we booked the main villa and separate cottage and there was more than enough room to accommodate us all. The property is huge, even after spending a week there I was still discovering little nooks and crannies of the property that I didn’t even know were there! The time and care put into every aspect of this villa from the decor to the landscaping is simply amazing and the views are breathtaking! The villa itself is wonderful but, what really took this experience over the top was Vincenzo. I was in communication with Vincenzo for about a year before our trip and he was nothing but helpful. He assisted us with planning our week on the Amalfi Coast and booked the most wonderful activities for us from a private chartered boat trip to Capri, Amalfi Coast sightseeing and winery tour and my personal favorite was the Day in the Countryside tour. We also decided to have some meals prepared for us in the villa which were amazing! Do not miss out on the pizza extravaganza, we added that on last minute and were so glad we did, it was the best pizza we ate while in Italy. Vincenzo is top notch when it comes to hospitality, the level of service he provides to his guests is exemplary! This villa and Vincenzo’s service far exceeded our expectations, so book it you will not be disappointed! I can’t wait to go back!

Was it a dream...
You think you know what you are getting by looking at the pictures and reading the reviews... but you have no idea. The villa should be in a James Bond movie. There is no way to describe the surreal way you feel walking alongside a cliff to wherever you would like to go... the pool, the bar, the point, the chicken coop... the size of this property is utterly amazing. Do whatever Vincenzo recommends... all of our tours and dinners were 5 stars. His staff and the people he works with, have a level of service that is second to none. Don't go out for dinner, have Vincenzo set you up. I would have had his staff cook for me every night if I had any clue how amazing our meals were going to be. I truly don't know if I will ever have a vacation like the one I had here. The bar has been set so high. I live in Hawaii, I know paradise, I know tourism, I know service, and I know that Vincenzo, his villa and his team ---ALL deserve A +++++.

Magical Place Amazing Holiday
My friends and I just finished a week long stay at the Villa. From the initial reservation of the Villa to the regular correspondence with Vincenzo regarding what 1st class tours he could arrange for us, every last detail of our Holiday was amazingly taken care of by Vincenzo. From the moment we were picked up in Naples by Gerry and Luigi, until the sad day that we had to leave this amazing place, the service Vincenzo and his staff provided us with was impeccable. Vincenzo is very proud of this magnificent Villa his father built over 30 years ago and upon arrival, Vincenzo personally welcomed us and gave us a wonderful tour pointing out every nook and cranny of this unreal property and what it took to create this amazing cliff side paradise. From the breathtaking views of the Villa, to the overly accommodating staff, to the in-home chef prepared traditional Italian meals and Pizza Extravaganza, to the gardens and chicken coop providing fresh eggs for breakfast in the morning, the Villa is superbly maintained and there are no words to describe the attention to detail and utter beauty and of this place. We were made to feel as part of his family from the moment we arrived and I can't recommend this villa highly enough. It is definitely at least a once in a lifetime place to stay, if not a place to come back to again and again. It is truly a 5 star absolute heavenly place . The one word that we always used among our group to describe this place was simply... MAGICAL!! We were all so sad we had to leave this piece of paradise and we already know we will be back one day, hopefully sooner than later!!

About the host

Hosted by Vincenzo

Host profile image
Hi! First of all, thank you for spending some of your time to take a look at this very unusual “Villa” … a place where man's tenacity has rendered possible that which seemed impossible.

My name is Vincenzo and I own and manage this very unique “Villa”, a result of a work of life, the culmination of 30 years of my parents’ great efforts, imagination and, above all, love!

I enjoy sharing my passion and deep knowledge about local Foods and Wines with my Guests. So, I began to offer very exclusive 'Culinary Experiences' to my Villa's Guests to allow them to discover the Amalfi Coast through Food & Wine Excellence.

My goal is sharing the uniqueness of this “Cliff Villa” with people who are able to understand the “Essence” of a place which maybe (I hope) will change something in their life (as my repeat Guests tell me every year).

Can’t wait to meet you!

Why they chose this property

Everything started with a bizarre present given by my grandfather to my father to congratulate him on becoming a doctor of medicine in 1969: a long, narrow path cut out from the rocks falling sheer down to the sea. A path where peasants used to take advantage of the constant exposure to the sun, and the natural protection from the wind and rain provided by the mountains to dry out figs on wooden pallets.

Well, my father had a vision the first time he saw this stretch of cliff: building a Villa embedded into the rock, in perfect harmony with its surroundings, thanks to his innate passion for Architecture. The idea was to create a dream, to make something magnificent rise up from nothing.

Building work soon started and my father joined forces with a team of just 3 workers who don’t shy away from even the riskiest of tasks to follow the guidelines of such a bold venture. They devoted half of their life to follow my father to his crazy adventure!

No resource was spared in the completion of this creation, the final version of which produced a genuine “architectural gem” set in the rocks.

It has become a quite unique, a private place far from prying eyes, a favored refuge for many leading figures from the world of culture and art, on the look out for an exclusive place of total tranquility, offering top class comfort, while at the same time, surrounded by uncontaminated, wild nature.

What makes this property unique

You will have the chance to vacation inside a seaside cliff, between heaven and earth…

The TOTAL privacy of a secluded property, Italian charm, and the incredible sea views from its terraces represent the main elements of this earthly paradise.

When you are into the Villa you’ll forget anything and you’ll have the sensation to be in a dream world. But, at the same time, you are in the heart of the Amalfi Coast (few minutes away from all the major tourist attractions).

Thanks to our personalized full service Concierge and our “Culinary Experiences” you have the chance to experience both the Villa and the Amalfi Coast in the best way, thru local Food & Wine Excellence.
