villa praia

Villa Praia, a fully staffed luxury villa located in the world-renowned city of Praiano, 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 pure 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 on 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 clifftop tower comprising a bedroom and bathroom and a guest house, built on the rocks which border the sea, with the entrance facing the pool. In addition to that, there is a one-bedroom, one-bathroom beach house, ideal for teenagers. This house leads directly to the Tyrrhenian’s crystal waters and a mooring place for boats. 
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.
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 an unforgettable sea view.
A complete concierge service, consisting of professional and highly experienced staff, as well as the all-inclusive formula, 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 for your convenience and can arrange day trips 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.
The luxurious Villa Praia will take a place in your heart also for its excellent Mediterranean cooking, particularly its Italian dishes with a variety of typical recipes from the Amalfi Coast based on fish and vegetables with the flavours of old prepared daily by your private chef. The dishes are prepared using fresh daily ingredients from the on-site vegetable garden.
On request, it is also possible to organize private boat tours to explore neighbouring Capri or Sorrento. Positano is a mere four-minute boat ride away.
