Reviews of Casa dei Cappuccini A

Lovely apartment outside of Amalfi town!

August 2019 - The owner was kind and very helpful, picking us up and dropping us off at at the ferry port. He showed us around, giving us useful information about the bus, market, and local restaurants.

The apartment has spectacular views and was perfect for two couples. We did not have a car, but were able to utilize the SITA bus system. Without a car, you can access. Amalfi and Pogerola in about 20 minutes of healthy walking, but be prepared for steps and hills.

We enjoyed, wine, cheese, and snacks on the beautiful, peaceful terrace and stargazed after sunset!

I really liked it!

August 2019 - I like the location and view.

The booking experience was pleasant.

This property is amazing and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Amalfi

July 2019 - This property is amazing and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Amalfi.

The views are spectacular and the home is in a quiet area that provides you some privacy away from the main areas of Amalfi. It's a bit of a climb like any place in Amalfi but well worth it. Having beach towels available to guest would have been a nice perk, otherwise everything you needed was there.

Book this now!

May 2019 - Our stay at Casa dei Cappuccini A was the highlight of our trip to Italy.

The views are breathtaking on the terrace. We couldn’t recommend this property more highly. Book this now!

The host was so attentive and caring, he treated us like family.

Perfect location

May 2019 - This apartment is perfectly situated for enjoying all the Amalfi Coast has to offer. It is a two bedroom villa with a broad terrace for gazing out at the sea, or enjoying a glass of wine before dinner.

There are many stairs to climb to reach the apartment but that is the case with almost every place you rent so be warned. The bus is at the corner which takes you directly to the center of Amalfi. So you get to enjoy the bustle when you want, and return home to this beautiful and restful home.

A few minutes from Amalfi, nestled above the town with a magnificent view!

September 2018 - Casa dei Cappuccini A is located a few minutes from Amalfi, nestled above the town with a magnificent view! You could drive, take a bus or taxi to the main square (Cathedral) or the port. If you are good at hiking, take the public stairs (in front of the house) to the port and center of town. The view is magnificent. The house is equipped with basic kitchen utensils, refrigerator, AC, etc. There are approximately 80 steps from the parking to the house. A great villa to stay in Amalfi.

The owner is very helpful, he speaks English fluently and is a former IBM engineer. The owner can arrange to have your luggage taken up by Antonio the gardener for a reasonable gratuity. You should schedule the luggage assist ahead of time to take it up and later to take them down.

Really enjoyed

September 2018 - We really enjoyed staying at Casa dei Cappuccini A. Once you understand the buses it is easy to get there from Amalfi where it is a lot busier. You must be prepared for a lot of stairs as is the same everywhere on the Amalfi coast.

Florestano [the owner] was very helpful.

Great place to stay!

May 2018 -

What a great place to stay!

Words cannot express how great the experience was with Mr Florestano [the owner]. He was our personal guide on our visit to Paestum and took us to eat at a mozzarella farm. He also dropped us off in Amalfi a few times.

I have booked with you before and found your service to be excellent.

Wonderful place to stay!

June 2016 - Casa dei Cappuccini A is a wonderful place to stay and enjoy a fabulous view of the Amalfi Coast!

The view was breath taking

May 2016 - My family and I stayed at Casa dei Capuccini A. The view was breath taking. The terrace was large and spacious with a view that is hard to describe. The house had everything you could need. The beds were a bit on the hard side but comfortable.

Mr Florestano [the owner] was wonderful. He made sure our stay was a great one. He gave us suggestions of places to go.

Fantastic

August 2015 - We had a perfect stay in Amalfi, away from the traffic and with amazing views. The sunsets over the sea with a glass of ice cold Prosecco are to die for.

The rooms are large and very clean, the old but well kept furniture breath the history of the house, the kitchen is fully equipped. The terrace, the garden, the cats and dogs provided a great "at home" feeling. The property has also a parking spot (great value in Amalfi).

The owner, Mr Florestano, was a perfect host and gave us info and tips about places to see.

September 2014 - Casa dei Cappuccini was AMAZING!

The views are spectacular and the apartment was decorated beautifully. The kitchen is small, but fully furnished with all the necessities including a clothes-washer, which came in very handy. The interior is quite charming and full of history.

Florestano (the host) is wonderful. He is a gracious, kind and helpful host.

We truly enjoyed spending time at this apartment. It was right on the bus route and far enough out of town that we could enjoy peace and quiet in the evenings while enjoying the incredible views. We did not want to leave this place!

Summer In Italy site was a great find... We stumbled across it by accident while looking for properties in Amalfi and it proved to have better places than we could find elsewhere.

June 2014 - We highly recommend Casa dei Cappuccini and hope to return in the future. Casa dei Cappuccini was the perfect spot from which to explore the area, the view from our beautiful apartment was the best on the Amalfi coast.

The apartment was perfect and we appreciated the quality of the furnishings, fixtures, appliances, linens and dishes. The huge terrace offers views of endless sky and sea.

We will always remember the kindness and hospitality extended to us by Florestano [the owner]. He was attentive to every detail. Even going to market for us for a few breakfast items as we arrived late in the evening. He also shared his homemade jams at breakfast and his kitchen garden for fresh lemons and the fixing for an amazing salad each evening. He is very interesting and taught us much about Italian culture, including what not to miss while in the area.

The information and contacts provided by Summer in Italy were spot on.

January 2014 - Fantastic place and a gracious, wonderful host. Although the kitchen and the living area are quite small, the location, the host, the view and the terrace more than make up for it. After all, you are not there to cook!

One other thing: wi-fi signal does not reach inside the apartment, but is fine on the terrace.

June 2013 - Our one week stay at the Casa dei Cappuccini was the highlight of our month in Italy. We enjoyed the hospitality of the owner Florestano as much as the accommodation.

The views were spectacular, with Casa dei Cappuccini sitting above the Amalfi coast, I felt privileged that this location was shared with us.

Florestano's level of personal attention and sensitivity to our needs was just right. He is well suited to this industry.

Everything was perfect, thank you.

June 2013 - Our experience was exceptional. The owner was attentive to every detail and made us feel safe and welcome. He offered continuously to help and one of our best evenings there was dining with him. He also shared his homemade jams at breakfast. He is very interesting and taught us much about Italian culture, including what not to miss while in the area.

The villa is immaculate with all the conveniences one could need. The terrace is spectacular. The location of the villa is wonderfully accessible to Amalfi town, but also to the quiet area of Pogerola with three convenient restaurants without having to get on the busiest road. The area is a genuine neighborhood versus a touristy area.

Everything was delightful. The information you sent was perfect. The phone numbers you provided made us feel confident, even though they were not needed.

April 2013 - We stayed at Casa dei Cappuccini for almost 2 weeks in April 2013. During our visit we traveled to many small towns in the area, but the 4 of us agreed that the view from our beautiful terrace was the best view on the Amalfi coast.

The apartment is very comfortable for two couples. We appreciated the quality of the furnishings, fixtures, appliances, linens and dishes. The renovations have been well done and made clever use of the space while preserving the character.

The kindness and hospitality of our host was outstanding.

The stairs to the apartment turned out not to be a problem, although guests would need to be physically able. We often walked to the town of Amalfi and took the local bus back. The market is about 5 minutes walk away and is well stocked with snacks, cheeses, meats, breads, pastas and canned goods. Also wine!

We highly recommend Casa dei Cappuccini and hope to return in the future.

Summer in Italy did a great job keeping us updated and we especially enjoyed the newsletters.

September 2012 - We had a very warm welcome and enjoyed host's support and attention throughout the week. It was nice that we interacted directly with the owner and that he lived in a part of the villa, too. He invited us to his house to an excellent dinner that he cooked himself. And he treated us to fruits from his garden from time to time.

It was also nice that the villa comes with some history - with its roots in Cappuccini Hotel, one of the famous hotels in Europe in the past.

June 2012 - Casa dei Cappuccini is a special place. Its furniture breathes the history of Amalfi.

The owner has a strong relationship to the place, he renovated an equipped the apartment with an exceptionally good taste.

Don't go there if you don't care about culture, go there if you want to dive into a very Amalfi way of lifestyle.

Mr. Florestano [the owner] is such a generous owner and cooked us dinner the first night we were there (a traditional Italian dinner with all 4 courses to add!)

Very clean and cozy along with a very large terrace to enjoy breakfast in the morning or dinner in the evening.
