Casa Partenope - Holiday apartment at Massa Lubrense

Following the song of the Sirens

The holiday apartment of owner Rita, a professional in the field of tourism, owes its name to one of the beautiful Sirens from Homer's Odyssey: Parthenope.

Siren Parthenope, in despair at failing to mesmerize seafaring Odysseus with her enchanting songs, threw herself into the sea and drowned. Legend has it that her body was washed up off the coast of Massa Lubrense, your holiday destination.

Whether the songs of the Sirens or the sounds of the sea 'soundtrack' your holidays on the Sorrentine Peninsula is up to you. At Casa Partenope you are, in any case, warmly welcome.

Your holiday home between Sorrento, Capri and the sea

The lovely holiday apartment lies, framed by mountains and sea, only ca. 250 m from the beach, which stretches up to Marina della Lobra, the old harbor of Massa Lubrense.

From the reserved parking space you need only descend a few steps to get to the holiday apartment, which is furnished with WLAN and air conditioning. Inside, Casa Partenope, which covers two floors and accommodates up to 5 persons, radiates a cozy atmosphere.

The upper floor includes the spacious, friendly living-dining area with TV and sofa bed for one person. Picture-style windows and French doors open upon a view of the breathtaking landscape and the sea.

The eat-in kitchen, one of the two bathrooms and one of the two double bedrooms are found on the same floor. The bedroom, too, opens upon such a fantastic view as mentioned above. The kitchen is furnished with, amongst others, 4-burner gas stove, oven, refrigerator with freezer compartment, microwave and dish washer.

The bathroom on the upper floor is equipped with bathtub with shower device, WC and bidet.
