Perks for the Parents
This comfortable and colorful modern villa with a private infinity pool overlooks the blue Tyrrhenian Sea and is beautifully set up for families. It sleeps up to 10 + 4. It is surrounded by a large enclosed garden with bright Mediterranean flowers and plenty of eating and dining areas outdoors. There are fantastic sea views, over the furthest mountains of the Calabria region in 1 way and as far as the Cape of Infreschi in the other. The local village of Villammare is lively and unspoilt, with a marina, trattoria and a friendly atmosphere. The nearby Cilento Natural Park is an ideal place to walk in the mountains or relax by the sea. A babysitter and a private chef are available on request. Also by prior arrangement, you can learn to cook real Italian food with a cooking class from the local celebrity chef Maria Rina, operating at her restaurant just 10 minutes’ drive from the villa.
Why Kids Love it
There are plenty of places to play on the many terraces in the garden, in the pool and in the shade of a huge Mediterranean oak tree. (The enclosed gardens include a 12 x 6m pool and a variety of terraces and dining areas.) This villa is great for extended families and groups of friends due to the space and variety of seating areas – each level is self-contained so everybody has enough room to relax. Two high chairs and 2 cribs can be provided. The nearest beach is just 600m away. Boat trips are available nearby and you can watch fishing boats in the bay from the terraces. Local attractions include beautiful beaches that will keep them entertained for hours, gelateria and Roman ruins. Your kids will be adored everywhere they go and Italian food is perfect for kids of all ages.

About the Location
The villa is in the pretty, fishing village of Villammare, halfway between Maratea and Palinuro in the south of the Campania region. The area is considered to be the cradle of the Mediterranean and Villammare features long sandy beaches, a colorful seafront fringed with palms and eucalyptus trees and authentic restaurants. Trek in the Cilento National Park, sample the regional cuisine and enjoy the golden beaches and wild and unspoilt landscapes. Daily tours to Napoli, Pompei, Herculaneum, Matera are available. During summer months, guests can reach the Amalfi Coast, Ravello, Positano, Sorrento and the island of Capri by hydrofoil from Sapri Harbor. Although the beach is very close, car rental is recommended because the last part of the road to the villa is steep. Napoli is the nearest airport. As an exclusive service for guests, the local AVIS office can arrange private transfers from/to the airport and also deliver the car to the villa. Please don't hesitate to ask. The closest international airport is in Naples (2.5 hrs by car).

Style Notes
Vibrant and full of la dolce vita. This modern villa was built in a traditional style and is set 164 ft above sea level with simply stunning views stretching for miles along the Cilento coast. It is comfortably furnished and has traditional tiled floors and a light and airy feel inside, with simple and elegant furnishings. Color pops Italian style are found everywhere from the purple bathroom to the lipstick red fridge. The outdoor areas make the most of the stunning views. We love the shaded areas around the oak tree, the lounging areas and the outdoor kitchen facility (plus built-in BBQ) for easy summer cooking in the sun.

Campania, Italy
Including Naples, the Amalfi Coast, Vesuvius and Capri within its bounds, the province of Campania in southwest Italy, is one of the country's most exciting places for a vacation. Eat the best pizza in the world, take speedboat trips to glamorous islands or wander amid the ancient Roman ruins of Pompeii. The countryside serves up authentic cuisine and quieter beaches, and the further south you get, the more untouched the region becomes.
