Holiday Home Description

Villa Brenda is an age-old 70-square-meter (about 753.5 square feet) house in Amalfi which sleeps six people. It has a 100-square-meter (about 1076 square feet) garden and a balcony with a wide view of the sea and the coast. The house is 200 meters (about 656 feet) away from the sea and the beach. It is 1.5 km (about 1 miles) away from Amalfi and 12 km ( about 8 miles ) away from Positano. The house is equipped with air-conditioning.

There are three double bedrooms, each with its own bathroom with shower inside the room. There is also a living-room with a kitchenette, a patio, and a garden.

The place

Villa Brenda is an apartment on the first floor of a beautiful nineteenth-century building built attached to a rock on a prominent coast by the sea. The main façade of the building faces the sea only, while its sides and back look onto typical terraces cultivated with lemon and other citrus trees. Just a few feet away are the staircases which lead to two of the most beautiful beaches of the Amalfi Coast; both nestled by rocks.

50 meters (about 164.5 feet) away from the house is the bus stop of the Positano – Amalfi line shuttle. You can book a parking space in a pay-garage and they will take your car directly to you at the villa.

The garden

In front of the house lies the garden, which is just like a terrace looking out towards the sea and the sun. The garden is exclusively at your disposal. You will find a beautiful lawn and several lemon and mandarin orange trees under which you can even arrange deck chairs and little tables. You will be able to enjoy the sun from sunrise to sunset while feasting your eyes on the extraordinary scenery consisting of the sea and the coast.

The house

In order to arrive at the apartment, you will have to climb a flight of outdoor stairs which will lead you to the garden. The garden is actually on the same level of the house, and you will find umbrellas, tables, and chairs there.

From the garden you will be able to enter the living-room, where there is a table with chairs and also a small kitchenette furnished with a two-burner stove, an oven, and a fridge with freezer.

The bedrooms, all with double beds, have a bathroom inside each. They are placed around the living-room. Two have a patio door which gives access to the garden. The third bedroom is bright because of the light coming from the living-room.

Every bedroom has a satellite-dish TV.

The beaches

A few feet from Villa Brenda are the stairs leading to two enthralling half-moon-shaped beaches. The rocks enclose both as in an amphitheater, shielding them from the wind, what renders a pleasant weather suitable for sunbathing all year round. The beaches consist of fine gravels and the water is clean and transparent.

Both beaches are separated by a short area of rocks; however, you can swim from one to the other while wearing a mask and snorkels which will enable you to unveil small areas rich in shellfish and colorful little fish.

Reaching such beaches after climbing down zigzag stairs dug into rocks overlooking the sea will reveal panoramas of extraordinary beauty; an experience which will totally compensate for the fatigue of a long hike. If you’re in good shape, you should do it at least once (a favorite spot to go for a swim in Amalfi!). But look out!! There are about three to four hundred steps to be climbed, and one has to be fit to do so!!

Moreover, during spring-summer, those two beaches, reached either by sea or the staircases, offer convenient and economical boat services which take or pick up tourists to/from their shores. From eight o’clock in the morning until evening, there is a boat every thirty minutes. It is a pleasant ten-minute ride along the coast, taking you from the port of Amalfi to the beaches, and vice-versa. From the port of Amalfi, you can take the bus and return to Villa Brenda in only five minutes.

During spring-summer time, bars and restaurants are open at the beaches, and you may even have dinner and order a fresh-fish dish by the sea at night while spotlights illuminate the rocks.

Worth mentioning is the fact that you can also go for a swim in the large beach next to the port in Amalfi.

Nearby tourist attractions

Once at Villa Brenda you will be in an excellent location to visit Amalfi (1,5 km/ a mile), Ravello (6 km/4 miles), Positano (12 km/8 miles), Capri, Ischia, Sorrento, Pompeii, Herculaneum, Mount Vesuvius, Naples, Caserta, Paestum and more by using the inexpensive and efficient public transportation network, both on land and sea.

You will be able to board the Sita bus a few meters away from the house. At the docks in Amalfi you fill find ferries and hydrofoils to visit the coast from the sea and to reach Capri, Ischia and Naples. At the docks in Amalfi you will also find boats to take mini-cruises along the coast and to visit the Emerald Grotto, near Amalfi, and the Blue Grotto, in Capri.

In the villages of the Amalfi Coast you will be able to shop for fashion and local handicrafts, including Ravello wines, Limoncello liquor, perfumes, pastries and ceramics. You will be able to attend cultural, artistic and musical events of high interest, such as the Ravello Music Festival, as well as local street festivals. The list of scheduled events is available at the local tourist office.

Those who like to go out at night will find that the Amalfi Coast has a lot to offer: from romantic piano-bars to very exclusive night clubs.

If you like hiking, in the area you will find trails which are famous for their extraordinary beauty, such as the "Sentiero degli Dei": Path of the Gods.
