Wonderful apartment with the best views of Capri and Positano. Very gracious and helpful host Many great restaurants within a short walk.

We had a lovely time at Elia's family's home in Praiano. The lovely little flat has everything you need for a pleasant stay with the exception of toiletries, you will need to bring your own soap, shampoo etc. The views are absolutely stunning. Elia was kind enough to meet us and accommodate us upon arrival even though we arrived several hours early. He also gave us a lift to Positano one day where we were able to meet his family. I would echo what others have said about the many steps up and down to the home, so it definitely would not be a good choice for anyone who is mobility impaired, but it is definitely worth the climb! Steep stairs are just a reality on the Amalfi coast, so we enjoyed getting lots of exercise and experiencing views that were out of this world. The sunsets from the outdoor spaces at the home were absolutely spectacular and serene. The home is also well located for exploring up and down the Amalfi coast, and we loved that Praiano was so quiet. In the mornings and at night, all we could hear were the birds chirping. There are a number of nice little restaurants within easy walking distance of the home, as well as a market, butcher and a couple of lively bars. Often we have found that photos of rental properties often look better than the actual accommodations, but that was not the case here. Everything was even more beautiful in person. The gardens at the home were just waking up as we visited in early April, I can't imagine how beautiful it is in the summer! We can't wait to return.

We had a fantastic time here.The Views from the apartment are glorious.The apartment was immaculate with a lovely feel to it.Maria the lady who lives above the apartment is a treat.She brought us coffee, flowers, fresh figs, plumbs, peaches and various Italian dishes.The family who own the apartment are amazing. Momma made a beautiful Italian cake which she shared with us.

When we came across this place on Home Away, we were hesitant as we didn't know much about Amalfi Coast and no one that I know of seemed to have heard of the town of Praiano. We fell in love with the pictures and the views that we would get so we ended up booking this place. Praiano is a little town in between Positano and Amalfi easily accessible by bus but we didn't feel the need to travel to the other towns as much as we wanted to just relax. It is a small town, but it is a good place to relax and soak in the wonderful sunsets, which is exactly what we did. We spent our mornings hiking down to the beach (note that there are no real large beach/stretches of sands but more like a dock and cove area) and the afternoons sitting on the terrace sun bathing, reading, napping and eating. The view from this villa really is amazing and there is a convenient bus station to catch to the other towns along the Amalfi Coast. We stayed a few nights in Positano and 6 nights in Praiano and we loved loved loved this apartment. Positano was nice but Praiano had a really different vibe and view and I was reminicient to my days watching the sunset in the town of IA in Santorini. Overall, this place was wonderful, everything was clean and we had everything we needed. The added bonus there is also a sweet old italian lady living above the apartment who would randomly bring us wonderful home cooked food and coffee for no apparent reason when she saw us sitting on the terrace or doing laundry or preparing a little meal/snack to enjoy on the terrace. Really, we had the most amazing time and felt the true Italian family hospitality! This little villa is a little family run business and Elia and Pietro were a pleasure to work with. We even got to meet Mama and Papa too. Thank you Elia and Pietro and family for the wonderful memories!
