olearia

Olearia is a luxury and contemporary villa for rent designed by an eminent Italian architect in a harmonious fusion of style from the 60’s and local tradition in Maiori, on the Amalfi coast. This property offers privacy and luxury comforts, and it is also a perfect base for visiting the many historical sites or exploring the beautiful towns of the region. A truly stunning location for an unforgettable holiday experience.
Arriving at the villa, visitors are overcome by an intense sense of peace and tranquility induced by this inspiring property immersed in one of the most attractive, private estates of the Amalfi coast. The grounds are almost entirely dedicated to cultivation of lemon trees and citrus laden trellises extend from the summit of the headland almost right down to the coastline. All year round the landscape is dominated by the deep shades of green of the vegetation, the vivid yellow of the ripening lemons and the profound blue of the sea below. Guests at Olearia have exclusive use of a panoramic swimming-pool, ingeniously designed to incorporate the sheer cliff wall. A steep path leads down from the grounds to a private and exclusive use rocky beach at the waters’ edge.
Furthermore, guests can enjoy an exclusive cooking service (upon an extra charge) and daily choose meals from a first-class menu of seasonal dishes. The chef proposes a daily choice of exquisite dishes from the area’s traditional cuisine, homemade from local, seasonal products. Furthermore, a delicious Limoncello, prepared with the property’s home-grown lemons, is available for those who may wish to try it. The butler and the cleaning lady guarantee a flawless waiting service and the daily maintenance of the holiday luxury villa. Our concierge assists guests and accommodates all requests including organizing excursions, cooking-classes, rentals and booking of activities.
The villa provides guests small electric cars for easier access to the property situated at the end of a winding tarmac road. Strolling around the property you may come across the friendly pet donkeys, sheep, chickens and tiny Falabella ponies roaming freely in the grounds.
