Dreamlike apartment amazing stay
The location is so beautiful and overlooks the entire ocean it’s surreal. There are individual three balconies/lookouts each with an amazing view of the ocean. It’s perfectly situated between amalfi and positano which made it easy to get around(also pretty near ravello). Several nights we cooked dinner and breakfast in the house which was great. There’s a local market and restaurants nearby. Barbara is a great and accommodating host who was very helpful. We could not thank her enough for the amazing stay

Beautiful view. Clean…AC great…. Could sit on balcony for days. —advised washing machine…it is not in property and have to arrange owner to come at her convenience.. —bus schedule is very confusing but when we figured it out was great. Person nearby who took us to town. Owner offered to take us last day…would be helpful to have written schedule not just screenshots of schedule. Owner tried to explain but language differences made it hard — yes previous reviews spoke about hard beds…extremely hard…put comforters under sheet. Helped some Overall great experience. If bed was softer we would stay again now that we understand bus schedule.

dear guest, thank you for the excellent review and for appreciating the context. Regarding the free use of the washing machine, it is limited to what gets dirty during your stay in my accommodation, it is not correct to want to use the washing machine to wash mountains of dirty laundry from previous stays. There are people who activate the washing machine to wash only three underwear and not lost is correct. Next year there will be a washing machine with a coin mechanism so it will be accessible to all for a fee. Bus timetables are provided directly on whatsapp and explained in detail by me. I think that few hosts waste as much time giving detailed explanations as I provide them. The mattress is orthopedic which is why it is hard. Sincerely Barbara

The Amalfi Coast is beautiful. But somewhat difficult to get around. Barbara or host made that much easier.

My dad was so hard that it was almost impossible to sleep and made my back back hurt very badly
The property manager was very cooperative and easy to communicate with but when I told her that the bed was too hard ( I honestly think it was just a box springs, not a mattress) and was hurting my back, she said ‘ you are alone with this problem’.

dear guest, when you informed me that the mattress was uncomfortable for you, I simply replied that the mattresses are subjective, it depends on any pathologies that the guest may have. I did not understand what you mean by there was no mattress but a spring mattress ... Dear guest, I noticed that you had brought your own pillows and I saw that you had left one in the bed at head height and another at leg height , this lets me assume that you already have back problems, so I don't think you can give objective judgments on the mattress,

Great views over the Amalfi Coast
Barbara's place has unbeatable views over the Amalfi Coast. Situated high up winding roads, there are two balconies and a gorgeous terrace. Inside, the place is fully furbished in a taste that is not to everyone's liking... Old pictures, old furniture, hard mattresses... and some makeshift renovations in the upper bathroom and kitchen make it that this is not more than a 3* accommodation.

Dear guest, unfortunately not everyone appreciates the ancient and precious art of wooden furniture or the author's paintings that I have at home, we are not talking about old stuff as you pointed out. Obviously, a person's taste is certainly linked to his culture, history and art of his land, which not everyone can boast. The house is large, it is a structure from the 1700s, it was renovated 50 years ago but on the Amalfi Coast certain standards of aesthetics must be maintained such as the wooden window frames which are periodically restored, the bathrooms are new with handcrafted ceramics from Vietri sul mare and I don't understand what your disappointment is referring to. The kitchen has some problems with an accessory but this is due to careless use by some guests. The rooms and furnishings are clearly visible from the photos of the announcement. Kind regards, Barbara

Fabulous view
Highly recomend this place. However, having a car would be the best. The bus does not come up to this place very often. Barbara recommended her nephew for driving us from Naples and he was really great. English perfect and good driver. Overall we loved our 4 days here.

Amalfi getaway
Great communication with Barbara and she was on time to meet us to show us the property. The property is perfectly situated high in the hills on the Amalfi coast with incredible views and a fabulous terrace with sun trap which we very much enjoyed. Barbara was really helpful with any queries we had. A few notes on our side - we thought it could use a bit of a refresh in terms of equipment and supplies and there were a few issues with hot water. The larger terrace is on the top floor and would be difficult for anyone with mobility issues so worth bearing in mind. Thanks so much Barbara for our stay with you.

Beautiful Vacation Retreat
Barbara and Rosario are the best possible hosts! We had a great time staying at this property, it was excellently situated facing the sea. We spent much of our time on the balcony watching the boats along the coast and enjoying the warm sun. The mini-market in Furore supplied all our cooking needs and we made and ate excellent Italian dinners. Loved the proximity to the buses to Amalfi and enjoyed not having to drive.

Perfect escape in Costiera amalfitana
Loved everything about this place! The hosts were very welcoming, helpful, friendly. Very well located between Amalfi and Positano. Splendid view. We were offered the option to have a homemade dinner on the day we arrived, which was amazing and sooo good! We look forward to visit this place again! Highly recommend!

Beautiful apartment with gorgeous views
The apartment has everything you need and Barbara and Rosario are just lovely people and hosts. Suggestions: the queen bed is way too firm and could use a mattress replacement or a topper. Also the hot/cold water situation was unsatisfactory unfortunately. Other than that, it was just perfect. Thank you B&R.

I thank Katy for her time, our beds are always suitable results,we don't know if some of them suffer from some back problem,perhaps aware of the problem, we could have helped them.

Great set-up with magnificent view
Property in line with description. Barbara was very helpful specially with the road closed going down to Amalfi due to bushes’ fire. The beds are very firm, not confortable for everybody and the bathroom on second floor is very small and would need to be updated but very nice property with a great view over the ocean.

Sehr freundliche Gastgeberin!
Wir wurden sehr freundlich empfangen und begleitet. Die Wohnung ist mit den vielen Sonnenterrassen wunderschön. Besucher*innen sollten wissen, dass die Amalfiküste sehr anspruchsvoll ist mit eigenem Auto zu befahren und dass der Platz sehr beengt ist.

Vacanza in Costiera
Ho soggiornato per 10 giorni in questa casa, con la mia famiglia. La casa si trova in una frazione di Amalfi, necessaria la macchina o l'utilizzo di pullman che, a causa del covid, sono però molto spesso pieni e l'attesa risulta molto lunga, soprattutto per il ritorno. La posizione della casa comunque è molto bella e tranquilla, a picco sul mare. L'abitazione è datata, ma tutto sommato, curata. È dotata di aria condizionata, ma la zona è fresca e ventilata. Trovandosi in una zona di campagna, sono presenti animaletti... soprattutto formiche!!! Nel complesso soggiorno gradevole.

Sehr schöner Blick, aber keine Luxuswohnung
Ein verrostete Kühlschrank, ein Herd wo man aufpassen muss, das man nicht an die Kabel kommt, ein Geschirrspühler der auch nicht richtig geht. Die Küchenzeile müsste komplett renoviert werden. Die Terrasenmöbel haben leider auch ihre Zeit hinter sich. Alles in allem: ausser dem schönen Blick ist die Fewo sehr renovierungsbedürftig.Preis u.Leistung stimmen hier nicht überein

Liebe Sabine, ich danke dir für deine Zeit,offensichtlich hast du dein Land nie verlassen (vier Leute, ohne ein Wort Englisch zu sprechen,noch nie passiert !!)Wenn Sie etwas Rost bemerken, haben Sie die schönen Möbel und die vielen Dekorationen und Tische der Manufaktur "Vietrese" bewusst vernachlässigt. Sie kennen sie sicherlich nicht, vielleicht sind Sie an die Einrichtung "Ikea" gewöhnt.Ich respektiere jedoch Ihr Urteil und rate Ihnen, häufig zu "reisen" und nachzudenken, bevor Sie sinnlose Urteile fällen.

Die Wohnung ist sehr gemütlich und empfehlenswert. Das Tolle ist die Terrasse und die 2 Balkone. Da sehr viele Touristen die Amalfiküste besuchen, ist die Lage der Ferienwohnung optimal, etwas abseits. Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Ich kann die Wohnung sehr empfehlen.

Très bon accueil, l'appartement est bien situé pour découvrir la côte. Nous conseillons vivement d'avoir une voiture à disposition sur place. Possibilité de parking devant la maison sans problème . L'appartement était très propre et correspondait à la description. Si nous avions disposé d'une meilleure literie, nous aurions mis 5 étoiles . Nous conseillons cet appartement . Merci à Barbara et Rosario de nous avoir reçu.

Bellissimo soggiorno in costiera!
Appartamento molto carino, con vista panoramica eccezionale sul mare e splendida terrazza. Proprietari molto gentili, disponibili e discreti. Posizionato in alto sulla costiera ma con l’autobus (fermata proprio sotto casa) è possibile raggiungere Amalfi in 20 minuti. Super consigliato!

Excellente Erholung in ruhiger Umgebung mit Traumhaften Blick auf Meer und Küste
Barbara und Rosario sind sehr nette und hilfsbereite Gastgeber, die jederzeit Auskunft und Hilfe angeboten haben. Die Ferienwohnung ist absolut sauber, geschmackvoll eingerichtet und mit einem Meerblick von Balkon und Terrasse, der alleine schon den Aufenthalt wert ist. Wer ruhigen, vom Massentourismus etwas abgelegenen Urlaub genießen möchte, hat hier die perfekte Wahl getroffen. Wenn in der sehr gut eingerichteten Küche nicht gekocht werden soll und lieber ein Restaurant bevorzugt wird, sollte das Auto nicht fehlen. Die Busverbindung nach Amalfi ermöglicht eine sehr gute Verbindung mit der Fähre oder dem Speedboot in die Umgebung wie z.B. nach Positano, Sorrent und Capri. Wir haben den Aufenthalt bei Barbara und Rosario sehr genossen und können die Ferienwohnung nur weiterempfehlen.
