What guests of Villino delle Orchidee say Raye Senecal, Foxboro, MA, United States June 18, 2011 - We loved it! Truly felt at home. The kitchen was well equipped and we ate breakfast on the terrace each morning and had a few wonderful dinners on the patio also (dinner items were purchased at Delikatessen in town -- yummy!). The terrace is a delight with a lemon tree and orange tree. We enjoyed the fruit from both. The view from the terrace is magnificent overlooking the Mediterranean!! It surpasses the picture on the web! We also had the benefit of a full moon and a total lunar eclipse the week were there. Amazing! When at the villa all our time was spent on the terrace unless we were sleeping. Bedroom has wonderful view of terrace and sea beyond. Staying at the villa we felt somewhat like "locals" rather than tourists. This is the experience we were looking for. We would very happily stay at Villino delle Orchidee again. I just happened upon your website when looking for a rental in Positano. You were very easy and pleasant to work with. I greatly appreciated you holding our reservation until I could transfer the funds to you. The information you gave us was very thorough and insured our trip went very smoothly. Would use you again when we travel to Italy! Thank you!  Marino Candusio, Balaclava, Australia October 16, 2010 - The villa itself is spacious and lovely. It's a great villa, but is let down by a number of things such as: windows were dirty - surely the 80 euro cleaning charge, which other villas did not have, should cover this. Dirty windows means the view was not as great as it could have been.; No washing machine; No knives to prepare dinner with; Old and mismatched glasses, cups and cutlery. For the price, we were a bit disappointed with the above. Our comment: Thank you so much for reporting this! It gives me a chance to share two pieces of advice which might be useful to travelers looking to rent a private home. The first piece of advice, very important, is to check the property description to see if the property you are considering does have the amenities you require. Villino delle Orchidee is not marked has having a washing machine, which means that you will not find it on the premises. The second piece of advice is to take advantage of our assistance... I'll explain: as you probably know, these properties are privately owned by genuine locals who, with a few exceptions, are not professionally trained in the accommodation industry: they do it with their heart and common sense, and with our advice and support. While usually everything is as one would expect, from time to time some details could be improved upon, and owners really want everything to be perfect, they just need to be told. As I have the bad habit of going on vacation from time to time myself, I know that when you arrive at a place you don't want to deal with sorting out the details, and so my advice is: let us do it. All you need to do is to pop into any Internet point, and drop us an email with a list of things that would enhance your stay; be sure to tell us that it is ok for the owners to enter the house while you are out enjoying your time, and let us take care of it and follow up. It really is that easy, and we truly want you to have the best of times! Marina Kupriyanova, Moscow, Russia September 25, 2010 - Great place to stay. Very convenient location (town centre, beaches, transfers to other places, supermarket) with great view. Very spacious apartment. Thank you for your job. Very professional. Steph Rubbo, Wood Green, United Kingdom September 1, 2010 - We really enjoyed our stay here, the villa was clean and tidy, and the owner Pasquale was very helpful with advice. My Holmstrom, Stockholm, Sweden July 10, 2010 - It was ok but not more. We have rented way better houses with much better location in Positano for lower price. We where also charged 80 EUR extra for cleaning which is extremely expensive, normally when we rent in Positano the price is 30 EUR. The terrace was also quite bad, it was told to be 30 square meters but there where only like 5 square meters that could be used because the rest was trees and a lot of dirt without plants.
