ambra

A vista of silver olive groves reveals the Mediterranean sea at the distance, in this luxury vacation villa for rent on Capri island. Ambra is a property full of charm, projected and owned from the early 1950s by the Princess Clara de’ Martinis d’Aragona, one of the ancient families linked to Neapolitan events of the 17th century. The actual owners of Ambra are descendants of the family of Princess Clara and they have recently restructured the villa with excellent taste and care.
The property enjoys a privileged position on the celebrated island of Capri, in a delightful and reserved location near the famous Blue Grotta. Well connected both to the key points of the island and to the famous Piazzetta, that offers elegant restaurants, famous night clubs and glamorous shops. This villa is the perfect venue for those seeking absolute relaxation as well as fashionable evenings out.
It is a two-level villa, elegant and airy, a place of light and silence, with a breathtaking view over the whole Bay of Naples. Completely surrounded by a private garden of 1000 square meters facing the sea, filled with Mediterranean maquis, maritime pines, cypresses and olive trees, providing for plenty of shady areas to relax and listen to the singing birds.
The interiors with vault crossed ceilings are adorned with antiques from the 18th and 19th centuries, combined with more contemporary furniture of immaculate taste; embellished with 18th-century French prints, trompe l’oeil and contemporary paintings.
Beautiful surroundings include a nearby pinewood overlooking the sea, an Imperial Roman archaeological site. With a short walk down (about 20-25 minutes) it is possible to swim in the crystal water of the spectacular Blue Grotto, or to get tanned on exclusive beaches, eating specialties of the local cuisine.
