[Dear Traveler, please take the time to read the full description. Thanks!]
This big, beautiful villa is the ideal choice for a family or group of friends wanting a dream vacation on the Amalfi Coast. It has a special ambiance and offers a wonderfully enjoyable experience in this awesome region of Italy.
The views are vast throughout the property, the gardens are abundant with flowers and fruits, the terraces and balconies provide the quintessential indoor-outdoor experience, and the saltwater pool is big and refreshing. Our guests are enchanted upon arrival and have to tear themselves away at the end.
Maximum occupancy is 10 guests. The property works great for smaller parties, too. If you are a party smaller than 8, send us an inquiry about price.
The villa is located in the residential heart of the village of Furore, one of the beloved villages of the Coast midway between Positano and Amalfi, adjacent to Praiano and Conca dei Marini; an absolutely central and convenient location to anything you wish to see and do. The beaches and public dock of the Village of Amalfi are only a 17 minute drive away (6kms), and Positano is 30 minutes.
Access to the villa is very straightforward. Parking is nearby and there are only 40 steps to walk down to the main gate of the property.
This stately home is situated within a huge landscaped garden of abundant flowers and fruit trees, a gazebo with majolica ceramic dining table, and a big saltwater pool with surrounding deck.
To quote one of our past guests who captured the experience so well, "the villa is run in a thoughtful and personal way with many nice touches and luxuries.
The terraced gardens are a treasure trove of fruits and vegetables; lemons, plums, and pomegranates to name a few. There are stunning views in both directions over the sea and along the Coast".
There are 6 bedrooms; 4 with queen (matrimonial) bed, and 2 with French (oversize single beds). There are 5 FULL baths (either shower or tub) and 2 half-baths.
On the Main Entrance Floor you will find the gracious Living-Dining room and large, well-equipped kitchen. Floor to ceiling glass doors open onto the evocative seafront blue-tiled balcony. This balcony is furnished with a very large sun-umbrella and an ensemble of contemporary chairs, loveseats, and coffee tables to relax into and enjoy the wonderfulness of this place at any time of the day or night.
From almost any spot on the property you have a spectacular view of the sea and the marvelous coastline.
A very special feature of the property is a one-of-a-kind structure in the garden that we called "the Cottage", housing an authentic wood-fired oven, cooktop, and BBQ. It also houses a clothes washer and dryer.
Many visitors to the Amalfi Coast seek out venues to have pizza-cooking lessons. At Villa dei Signori you can have a pizza-cooking party right in your own backyard! You can do it yourself or we can send a Pizzaiolo (pizza chef) to create a party for you.
Villa dei Signori is nestled in the heart of the historic village of Furore - well-known for its friendly and hospitable residents, for its fine wine, and for its position near the Pathway of the Gods. There are country-style restaurants and fine-dining restaurants throughout all of Furore, several of them within walking distance to Villa dei Signori.
Furore offers a uniquely warm and local feeling and a glimpse into the authentic traditions of the Coast..
The gates to the property are only 40 steps from the road above (where you park). There are an additional 80 steps alongside the exterior of the villa from which you can access each floor of the building.
Parking is along the main road above the villa. When spots are available, they are free. Otherwise, there are a few parking lots nearby where one can park for a couple of hours if necessary at a reasonable cost.
Essential shops within easy walking distance including a small, but well-stocked grocery store carrying wine, local produce and prepared foods, a casual restaurant and enoteca, and a full-service coffee bar.
The village of Amalfi and several of the Coast's best beaches are less than a 17 minute drive away. In Amalfi you'll find a wonderful array of restaurants, services, and historical sites including the Cathedral and Cloister, and the ancient Papermill Museum. At the dock of Amalfi the public boats and ferries ply the waters to Positano, Capri, Sorrento, Salerno and some of the smaller villages along the Coast.
The Sita bus stops within 50 meters of the property. If you don't want to use your car all the time you can hop on the bus and be in Amalfi Village in 20 minutes. It's very convenient. We can also offer information on private transportation services if you do not plan to rent a car for your stay.
Villa dei Signori is user-friendly and safe for children. Although we stress that young children (especially under 8 yrs old) NEED TO BE very carefully watched !!
