Villa Finocchiara - sleeps 12 in 6 bedrooms
Villa Finocchiara in Amalfi Coast, Italy sleeps 12 people. Built in the traditional local style, in an elevated position above the coastal road, the authentic Villa Finocchiara welcomes up to twelve guests for a relaxing break on the enchanting Amalfi Coast. Even after its renovation in 2007, this hillside retreat has not lost its traditional charm, with archetypal Amalfian features and striking views from its sun-drenched terraces on all three floors.
The villa sits on a hilltop up 113 steps from the main coastal road. Guests enjoy several parking spaces in a private parking lot at the base of the property, a luggage ‘elevator' which will bring luggage and groceries, from the parking lot directly up to the property, and a great restaurant situated at the bottom of the steps leading up to the property.
As you enter via the tufa steps on the middle floor, you will find the first two of the villa's six delightful double bedrooms, which share a large bathroom with a Jacuzzi, walk-in shower and immaculate ceramic tiling from Vietri Sul Mare, just a few kilometres along the coast. Fine ceramics are one of this region's most famous exports, and colourful tiling features in all five bathrooms. Different patterns feature in all of the bathrooms' walls and floors, adding a layer of authentic Amalfian style to the superb fixtures and furniture.
The living spaces have a pleasing flow, with the homely living room offering sumptuously comfortable sofas and a large television to unwind in front. This, in turn, leads to a spacious kitchen diner that lends itself to social morning coffees and lunches at the farmhouse-style dining table. As well as a terrific range stovetop, espresso machine and a sequence of bar refrigerator units that can accommodate plenty of local wines and Limoncello, there is a beautifully restored fireplace, ideal for winter visitors. You will discover more of this villa's exceptional features, such as stonework at the poolside dating back over eight hundred years. This has been expertly incorporated with the villa's renovation, its arched coves leading to two of the bedrooms.
As well as offering welcome refreshments on summer days, the stunning infinity pool offers fabulous views of the sea and the neighbouring hillside. For a blissful morning experience, switch on the waterfall feature and watch the yachts and hydrofoils enter Amalfi harbour, following others as they head out on the cobalt Mediterranean waters. Uncork a bottle of Falanghina and relax in the rattan lounge on a poolside terrace that's a beautiful place to gather at all times of the day. This glorious viewpoint takes on an entirely different atmosphere as the sun sets. The illuminated houses on the hillside opposite, along with the poolside lighting, generate a truly magical feel. Suppers at the covered dining table are a joy. If a day at the poolside has left you with little energy for cooking – even at the impressive large barbecue - there is a delivery service available from the excellent restaurant next door.
Villa Finocchiara is just a short walk from the charming harbour town of Amalfi, with plenty of other delightful towns and villages along the thirty-four-mile Amalfi Coast. Even if you prefer not to drive, the towns between Amalfi and Salerno are easy to reach by ferry or bus, with taxis readily available in the central coastal towns. Amalfi is a graceful place that you will find a little easier to walk around than some of its steeper neighbours. You will find all the essentials for your stay at Villa Finocchiara and much more, with a terrific Thursday morning market at the port and a wealth of superb cafés, restaurants and shops.
