Villa Amalfitana Amalfi (Neapolitan Riviera)

Enjoying a spectacular setting on the panoramic coastal road just 2kms outside Amalfi, this 8-bedroom family hideaway ticks all the right boxes. It's encircled by fragrant lemon trees, boasts tiered gardens with bougainvillaea-draped pergolas and has at its hub a terraced swimming pool with uninterrupted views over the Gulf of Salerno. The main villa itself is built over four levels in typical local style complete with fireplace, iron shutters and French windows opening out onto alfresco terraces. As much as possible enjoys sea views; the six bedrooms of the main house supplemented by the two bedrooms of the charming annexe. You can walk to two restaurants, although probably won't bother as the villa chef is too good!
