Detailed description
Praiano can be seen from most of the Amalfi Coast, and is perched high on a promontory that goes straight down into the sea, as if symbolically dividing the gulf of Salerno into two. Praiano is a peaceful, old village scattered about the slopes of the hill along lanes and flights of steps. In the upper part, in a very panoramic and secluded position, lies Villa La Caravella, a very nice, typical independent house, renovated in the 1990s. The villa has everything that you might need and has very good-quality furnishings. It is equipped with washing-machine, TV and Air-conditioning. The kitchen, too, has been equipped with all necessary accessories. From the terraces you can enjoy a splendid view of the sea and the gulf. The beach at Praiano can be reached not only on foot along typical local lanes and flights of steps in about thirty minutes, but also by car or, in the summer months, by public transport. La Praiano is one of the most attractive places on the coast, the inlet is enclosed by high cliffs dropping sheer into the sea, with a pebble beach, a little piazza with typical fisherman's houses, a romantic path carved into the rock that runs along a stretch of the coast and several restaurants that offer local cuisine. Praiano is situated in the Heart of Almalfi Coast 6km from Positano,9km from Amalfi,20km from Sorrento and 15 km from Ravello;All of which can easily be reached by public transport.

"MR GIUSEPPE, the local contact person for the Villa were incredibly friendly and personable and helpful in getting whatever you need.
Perfect location, as it's just a short distance from the center of Praiano, but apart from the busy, hectic atmosphere of Positano, or crowds and traffic of Amalfi. We easily visited both towns during our stay by using the buses, which stop right outside the Villa (Internal Positano/Praiano). I also liked the fact that you can walk over to the beach area at La Praia in about 10
Good for different types of travellers!
Christine"

"Great location and spectacular fews! We enjoyed breakfasts and late dinners at the terrace. Do not be afraid to walk to La Praia beach by the steps. It is not so far and really worth. You will pass the typical houses, gardens and courtyards.
We would like also send many thanks to Mr Giuseppe ( the local contact person ) for his help."

"The apartment was nice. The location is great. the view from the apartment is brilliant. Praiano is lovely. The roads are a challenge. The weather was amazing. The herb garden is great for any cooks who wish to visit. The bus service is very good. Tutti Tutti the local supermarket is well equipped. The air conditioning is great. There were a few problems.
The oven did not work - this was very disappointing. We raised this issue with the caretaker who said the electrics in the house would not work if the oven was to be used. A microwave was there to be used instead but this did not satisfy our needs.
The door into the main bedroom needs to be adjusted - it drags on the floor when you open it making a loud noise and waking anyone who is asleep.
The mosquitoes were terrible. The beds need mosquito nets. The house needs electric plugs to combat the mosquitoes (we were told about these two days before we left.)
The screen on the window to stop flies coming in is broken and needs to be repaired.
The beds are not comfortable.
The toilet seats are rectangular - not the shape of a human - uncomfortable!
The shower in the en suite in the main bedroom is like a drip - water pressure is poor.
The owner stayed for a couple of days in the flat upstairs he was up all night and very noisy.
Car parking is difficult outside the property. We paid 150 euros to a neighbour for two weeks to use a car parking space in his secure car park.
The TV is a joke. Tiny TV. No DVD player. Reception of the local tv channels is ok at best. The hous could do with access to SKY."
