Villino dei Violini - Holiday home at Amalfi

The lovliest 'violins' of 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 tastefully furnished Villino owes its name to its largest and most beautiful bedroom - its vaulted and elaborately painted ceiling is adorned with violins.

From this room as well as 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 with lemon and orange trees surrounds the house.

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

Violins in the 'sky' at your holiday home

Villino dei Violini lies somewhat apart from the center and grants not only a view of the sparkling sea at your feet but also a fascinating view of the town of Amalfi.

It is by way of stairs up through the terraced garden that you reach the gorgeous 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.

On the first floor you find another bathroom with WC and bidet, a twin bedroom and the centerpiece of the house: the bedroom with magnificent paintings on the ceiling.

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

During the summer months, the furnished terrace in front of the house is shaded by bougainvillea vines. 

The holiday home is surrounded by a circa 500 m² garden, which 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.

Further information about your holiday home

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

For a small extra charge your luggage is taken up to the house.

A private parking space can be provided upon request and for an extra charge. 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 the busling activity of its inhabitants is 1 km from the Villino. That is where you find various shops, grocery stores and restaurants. A bar open year-round is found a mere 500 m from the holiday home.

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

Tips around Amalfi

They seem like pearls on a string, the numerous towns along the Amalfi Coast - some smaller, some larger, but always of very contemplative and characteristic nature. Amalfi as well as 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 – start on 'Sentiero degli Dei' at Agerola, for example, where you can also stock up on local delicacies for your picnic breaks at various grocery stores.
On your way, you meet with a unique panorama of the Costiera Amalfitana and of the Mediterranean island of Capri.
