July 2008 - Villa Incantesimo is a wonderful house with a great view.
It would be nice if there was more garden furniture and a better barbecue.
The owner is a very kind woman who speaks excellent English.
Your website is very good and so is your service. Thank you!

October 2006 - A fantastic spot. The views of the sunrise are stunning and the villa provides a bird's eye view over the surrounding district.
We loved the steps that connected the different levels of the village of Furore. It was a pleasure to see all of the beautifully tended gardens and terraced fields.
At the end of a day's sightseeing at Pompeii the Villa Incantesimo was a lovely peaceful place in which to relax, watch the sun go down and enjoy the view from the roof terrace.
We would go back tomorrow given the chance!
Travel tips
- Luca's pizzeria (15 mins walk via the steps) is a great simple place for a meal.
- The local pharmacy 5 mins drive down the hill is very useful, and the small general shop almost next door to the pharmacy is a great place for breakfast bread.
- A trip to the old Greek town of Paestum is well worth the time. Go along the minor road that follows the coast, at the far end there are lovely clean sands and safe water for swimming.
- A walk along the Percorso degli Dei from Agerola provides good exercise and tremendous views.

April 2006 - We had a lovely week at Villa Incantesimo.
It was really useful having parking as generally in the area that is difficult. I would recommend using the buses.
Angela, the owner, was delightful-very helpful and generous, as were her neighbours.
Great view, beautiful place.

September 2004 - We thoroughly enjoyed out stay at Villa Incantesimo, it was a wonderful chance to sample real Italian life on the stunning Almalfi coast. Perfect place to get away from it all and relax in breathtaking surroundings. The villa is full of charm and Italian decor.
As a party of 6 it was the perfect property to base ourselves to explore the surrounding area. Consequently we fell in love with Amalfi coast, a week was not long enough.
The local restaurants are excellent: Lucas, Bacco and restaurant Silva up the mountain makes the best pizza in the area
We all hope to return.
We are very happy with your the level of service received by Summer in Italy, all contact and instructions/directions received were fantastic.
Every question asked was answered thoroughly and promptly.
Well done, we were very impressed with you all.

April 2004 - This has been a great experience for my entire family. Great location and wonderful people in the area. The restaurant Bacco was a great place for us to learn how accomodating the people in the area would be for us.
The owners of Villa Incantesimo could not have been more response to our questions.
No matter how good the pictures are there is no way to capture the real experience of this area until you see for yourself. That is the hardest thing to understand when you look at the pictures. We will always remember our trip!

October 2003 - We had a wonderful time staying in the Villa Incantesimo.
The view was breathtaking. We spent many nights out on the balcony soaking up the view.
Angela (the owner) was warm and friendly. She helped us with both directions and finding local restaurants and grocery stores. She greeted us the morning we left with fresh pastries, yummy!
The villa was beautifully decorated and very comfortable.
Overall our stay was more than we have hoped for and will recommend it to our friends and family. Thank you for your help, it was a very pleasant experience using Summer in Italy.

August 2003 - Villa Incantesimo was a beautiful place, tastefully restored and combining modern amenities with the character of the old property that it is.
The views were spectacular and the property clean. The owners, though living elsewhere, were friendly and helpful.
I would recommend this property, though only to the physically fit as it is a tiring climb up 90+ steep steps.
Unfortunately, Villa Incantesimo can not be booked at this time.
We would love to help you find a suitable alternative. Please be in touch for personal advice from our staff!
