Villa Il Faro - sleeps 12 in 6 bedrooms
Villa Il Faro in Amalfi Coast, Italy sleeps 12 people. Situated just outside the pretty harbour town of Maiori, home to the largest beach on the Amalfi Coast, the spectacular Villa Il Faro welcomes up to twelve guests for a unique and unforgettable experience. With six bedrooms across the tower and its four annexes, along with a swimming pool, immaculate gardens and private sea access, this remarkable property also sits in an ideal location for those keen to explore the other major towns along the Amalfi Coast.
The main villa itself is one of several examples of Saracenic watchtowers that occasionally decorate this section of the Amalfi Coast. Built in the fourteenth century to provide early warning of pirate attacks, in the 1960s, a prominent Italian designer reimagined the interior.
The lounge on the ground floor is exquisite, while the adjacent dining room is simply breathtaking from top to bottom. Huge plate glass windows sit on either side of a stunning repurposed fireplace, bathing this exquisite room in natural light and opening to a magnificent Tyrrhenian seascape. These windows slide back to allow access to the tower's lower terrace, with wrought iron tables and chairs – just the most incredible place to enjoy your morning coffee.
The tower's top floor comprises the first of six exceptionally furnished bedrooms at Villa Il Faro, an air-conditioned double bedroom with a suitably stylish bathroom along the corridor. Continue to find access to the tower's second terrace and the solarium, where a delightful outdoor lounge and dining space await. Recline with a lemon granita on a sun lounger, take an afternoon snooze in a hammock or gather for lunch at the dining table.
Four individually designed annexes house four double bedrooms and a twin room. In keeping with the tower, these are all air-conditioned and finished to a superior standard. Each annexe has its own unique character, however, with characteristics such as a lava stone headboard in one bedroom, antique furniture, art installations and sea view terraces.
In addition to the terraces that descend from the tower's roof, surrounded by the Amalfi Coast's famous lemon trees, the outdoor spaces here immerse you in the region's natural beauty. A winding path leads below the tower to a private cove and sunbathing platform. Between May and October, visitors to Villa Il Faro also enjoy exclusive use of a dual-level swimming pool, surrounded by a small garden with sun loungers and a hammock.
Friday is market day on Maiori's colourful promenade, where you will find various artisanal foods, clothing and homewares. As you would expect, you will be spoiled for choice regarding exceptional restaurants, trattorias and cafés, plenty of independent bakers, butchers and stores serving perhaps the Amalfi Coast's most famous and delicious export – Limoncello. You will have the region's largest beach on your doorstep, and you will be within easy reach by car, ferry or bus from the other major towns on this glorious thirty-four-mile coastline. Ferries and hydrofoils take visitors across to the blue lagoons of Capri throughout the day, and the archaeological wonders of Pompeii are less than an hour away.
