If you have spent hours pouring over where to stay in the Amalfi coast like we did, searching for a little slice of heaven to take your family to, then Villa Limoneta is it. Words fail to describe the beauty and magic of this place.
We are seasoned travellers (travelling with 2 kids under 9 and one senior) accustomed to luxury and/or humble stays. The home was humble but very much loved which you could easily see by the attention and care paid by the host. You have every modern amenity (even a/c and washer that you don’t typically expect to see in Italy and it was the perfect location / town to see everything on the coast without the tourist crowds.
We arrived and were warmly greeted by the Hosts (Mario and family) with gifts. Communication was always prompt, informative and friendly and the apartment was very clean with comfortable beds and adequate space.
I should mention the stairs; for older seniors in the heat wave we experienced (36) it may be a bit of a challenge but the kids and us loved it and the pay off at the top was well worth it. This villa is set high on top of the mountainside amidst an ancient lemon tree grove with views of the ocean. To say it is surreal is an understatement. Every chance we got, we had wine with lemons hanging over our heads, scenting the ocean breeze. Just incredible.
My little girl nicknamed this villa Lemontopia; I second that and add heaven. We will surely be back. Grazie mille Mario and Family!
