Villino dei Violini - Holiday home in Amalfi

A lovely place in Amalfi

The charming holiday home by the well-sounding name of Villino dei Violini (small house of violins) lies embedded high up in the hills of the Amalfi coast and only a few meters from the picturesque center of the town which has given the world famous coast its name.

The stylishly furnished Villino owes its name to its largest and most beautiful bedroom, whose vaulted and elaborately painted ceiling is adorned with violins.

From this room as well as from all the other rooms and from the terrace of the house you enjoy a breathtaking view of both the sparkling blue Mediterranean Sea and the colorful town center of Amalfi.

A spacious and well-tended garden, in which lemon and orange trees grow, surrounds the house.

Villino dei Violini is the perfect holiday accommodation for all those who want to experience the colorful hustle and bustle of the Amalfi coast and, at the same time, enjoy a pleasant and quiet holiday atmosphere.

Villino dei Violini lies somewhat apart from the center, thus granting a view of the sparkling sea at your feet as well as a fascinating view of Amalfi itself.

It is by way of stairs up through the terraced garden that you reach your dream accommodation.

The ground floor of the house includes the very spacious living-dining room with kitchenette as well as a bathroom with shower, WC and bidet.

The first floor includes another bathroom with WC and bidet, a twin bedroom and the heart of the house: the bedroom with magnificent paintings on the ceiling.

When waking in the morning, you may greet Amalfi through a small window or the shallow waves of the sea through the window to your right.

The furnishing of the Villino is very stylish and of high quality.

Right in front of the house door, there is a furnished terrace, which, during the summer months, is shaded by bougainvillea vines.

The holiday home is surrounded by a circa 500 m² garden. It is laid out in several terraced sections; lemons, oranges and various kinds of vegetables are grown there and you are welcome to use them for your Mediterranean dishes.

The Villino includes washing machine, dish washer, refrigerator with freezer compartment, microwave, espresso maker, safe, SAT-TV and two sunbeds.

For a little extra charge the custodian will bring your luggage up to the house.

Upon request and for a fee, a private parking space is provided.

As the public transportation system at the Amalfi coast is very well organized, you do not necessarily need a car during your holidays at Villino dei Violini.

Bus connections at the Amalfi coast...

The center of Amalfi with its colorful houses, its narrow alleys and its inhabitants’ lively hustle and bustle is 1 km from the Villino. That is where you find various shops, grocery stores and restaurants.

Only 500 m off, there is a bar which is open year-round.

About 600 m from the Villino lies ‚Spiaggia degli Artisti’ – a small bay with sandy beach and shallow access of the sea.   

Along the Amalfi coast, like pearls on a string, there are numerous towns; some may be smaller, some larger, but they are always very contemplative and characteristic places. 

Besides Amalfi, Ravello and Positano count among the best known, but smaller places like Raito or Conca dei Marini are also worth a visit.

Those who want to avoid the hustle and bustle along the coast might follow one of the numerous hiking trails at the Amalfi coast and enjoy the peace and quiet as well as nature.

Our tip: Follow the traces of the gods – you can start on ‚Sentiero degli Dei’ at Agerola, for example, where you can also stock up on local delicacies for your picnic breaks in various grocery stores.

On your way, you meet with a unique panorama of the Costiera Amalfitana and of the Mediterranean island of Capri.
