  : I booked this Airbnb for the views, and it did not disappoint. The view from the porch and the surrounding walkways are breathtaking. Being in the city center is chaotic and only provides views when looking up. This lovely Villa allows you to see it all in a private peaceful atmosphere. Spending our evenings relaxing in the hot tub with wine and views at night was the highlight of our trip. Luigi was a great host and answered all of our many questions, his mother, who is a wonderfully sweet women, even did our laundry for us which was extremely helpful. One hill down from the Villa there is a lovely little square that is very secluded and not busy at all. There is a cocktail bar owned by a woman name Maria, who is just fantastic, this bar provides wonderful drinks and food on an outdoor patio overlooking the towns below. We spent every evening there after our bus ride before the steps back to Villa. (Bus stop is just past bar, down hill on the right) In this same square there are also two small markets where you can stock the Villa with water, wine and snacks, not to mention some of the best fruit we have ever had. You can also buy your bus tickets in these markets, cocktail bar or Gerrys pub.
  : It can be a bit difficult to navigate at first if you are new to the area, everyone knows Amalfi is hills and steps so finding which hills and steps bring you where you need to go is its own adventure. Once we figured out the bus system is was much easier. Our only small issues with the property itself was no AC, but the fan provided was fine along with breeze from windows and the shower is not the best. It doesnt drain great and the water pressure was pretty low but that hardly put a damper on anything
