This imposing and beautifully restored 19th century villa is situated right on the coast at Ravello with stunning views over the sea. Its amazing terraced gardens of 1500 m2 slope right down to the edge of the sea , with 130 stone steps connecting the bougainvillea terraces and lemon and orange groves. Right near the bottom, in a panoramic position directly overlooking the sea, is a sun terrace, built into the rocks, with spa pool. Steps lead down from here to a small private pier with direct access to the sea. The furnished roof garden, and the bougainvillea terrace further down the garden are both beautiful settings for special events.
Recently renovated throughout, the original features and special character of the building have been retained, and the rooms are furnished with elegant furnishings and antiques. The original majolica tiled floors remain and the four floors are connected by the original staircase with inlaid wood handrails and arched windows at each level with sea views.
Fitting for the Ravello location, the 8 spacious bedrooms have been given musical names; Overture, Rhapsodia, Suite, Fantasia, Romance, Arabesque, Melodia and Fuga. All benefit from sea views, some with balconies, and all have en-suite bathrooms with glass mosaic hydro shower and/or Jacuzzi bath, hairdryer, LCD television with satellite channels, air conditioning, heating, internet connection, mini bar and safe.
