The villa stands sheer above the sea on the Amalfi Coast, with private grounds of 1,500sqm of terraced gardens descending slowly down to the sea in the delightful private inlet in the cliffs below. The villa is on four floors connected by a stairway, with vaulted ceilings and panoramic arched windows framing the view of the sea. Everywhere in the house there are spectacular views and the whole villa enjoys the special atmosphere of high-quality old houses with original terracotta floors, antique parquet and old handmade ceramics.

During the recent renovation, it was equipped with the most technologically advanced comforts; the furnishings are elegant and antique, and all of the rooms are decorated with objets d'art, valuable paintings and precious materials.

The eight large bedrooms for guests consist of six double bedrooms with another two that can be converted, on request, into twins, and have comfortable small living areas, along with balconies or windows that open onto the wonderful view of the sea along the Amalfi Coast. All have a bathroom in the bedroom decorated with glass mosaics, a large shower with hydromassage or a bathtub with jacuzzi and hairdryer, independent air-conditioning, satellite LCD TV, Ethernet internet, minibar and safe-deposit box.

On the terrace above the villa is the very panoramic, furnished roof garden of about 100sqm, with its own small kitchen and barbecue, ideal for organising romantic candlelit dinners with a view of the whole of the Amalfi Coast, which in the summer is dotted with the lights of the villages, of the night fishing boats and fireworks.

At the foot of the villa is another large, flowering terrace with a view of the sea, completely covered with a pergola of bougainvillaea. The property has private access to the sea: 130 steps down through terraces of bougainvillaea and citrus gardens to the furnished sunbathing areas, the meadow with natural grottoes, the panoramic belvedere with a small swimming pool of about 8sqm with hydromassage and further down a small private landing stage with a sunbathing area in the delightful inlet in the cliffs below.
