This world-renowned Praiano, luxury Italian villa boasts breathtaking ocean views from the 10,000 sq ft. main house, overlooking Positano to Capri. From Villa Praia’s numerous terraces and gardens, you may take in the enchanting Amalfi Coast and its extensive landscape. It is not purely chance that celebrities such as Julia Roberts, Michael Keaton, Barbra Streisand and Dr. Benjamin Carson have stayed at Villa Praia and that it has featured in numerous international luxury magazines such as Point Devue, The New York Times Magazine, Amica, and AD. Accessible by descending approximately 80 steps from the main street of Praiano, on reaching the villa you get the impression that you have arrived in a small exclusive paradise. The villa enjoys absolutely breathtaking views, with Positano on one side that appears like a jewel set in the cliffs overlooking the sea, along with total privacy and a silence which is only very occasionally broken by a distant horn from a passing ship.
The property consists of a main villa, an ancient cliff top tower comprising of a bedroom and bathroom, and a guest house, built on the rocks which border the sea, with the entrance facing the pool. The particularly scenic effect from the bathroom window of the guest house, which seems as though you are at sea rather than on land, has been immortalized in the pages of Architectural Digest.
The tower and the guest house enjoy the same panorama as that of the main villa. In addition to the main house, the medieval tower and the guest house, there is a one bedroom, one bathroom beach house ideal for nannies. This house leads directly to the Tyrrhenian’s crystal waters and a mooring place for boats. Of the various terraces from which one can admire the view of the Tyrrhenian sea, the largest is that of the main villa divided into two areas one of which is accessed directly from the living room and is furnished for dining under the stars, the other area is situated in front of the ground floor bedroom and furnished with comfortable sofas and armchairs. Further to the elegance and comfort with which Villa Praia has been furnished, the size of the rooms and some of the bathrooms is noteworthy. Two of the bedrooms in particular are bigger than the others and have large bathrooms and a sea view.
A complete concierge service, consisting of professional and highly experienced 4 person staff makes Villa Praia a very exclusive place, suitable for those who love excellent service in a private and unique setting. An Italian and English-speaking concierge will be available twenty-four hours daily for your convenience and can arrange daytrips to nearby destinations. Villa Praia also includes daily housekeeping. The staff lives in a separate house independent from the villa ensuring complete privacy for guests. For an additional charge there are several boats available for daytrips to explore neighbouring Capri or Sorrento. Positano is a mere four minute boat ride away. The luxurious Villa Praia will take a place in your heart also for it’s excellent Mediterranean cooking, particularly it’s Italian dishes with a variety of typical recipes from the Amalfi Coast based on fish and vegetables with the flavours of old.
When you don’t want to climb the 80 steps it is possible to use a small boat (to be paid on the spot) accessible from the mooring place at the foot of the villa, visit the coastline with the boat and car, then return to the villa by car descending the steps without ever having to climb them.
