Our Stay in Praiano

Our stay was very delightful and relaxing. The view was beautiful, and the location was quiet yet close to Positano. The house was well kept and very clean. The host was responsive, attentive, and helped us arrange different activities throughout our stay.

We most definitely would stay at this Villa again!!

Our family had an absolutely amazing vacation in Praiano. The Villa was perfect for the 6 of us. Stunning views of the sea and of Positano. Villa is in a great location with fabulous restaurants within walking distance. All of the staff with Smaac were extremely helpful and responded quickly whenever we had questions. We most definitely would stay at this Villa again!!

We will back again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! I am 7 months pregnant and still found the place very accessible which is not easy on the Amalfi Coast! The views are breathtaking from the top balcony. Photos do not do it justice. We would absolutely stay here again when visiting Praiano. Francesco was very responsive and happy to help with recommendations and to arrange transportation for us.

Great Stay!

We had a great stay and loved the house and the incredible view. The host was super responsive and it was easy to find! The amenities were great too. We really loved the location and it was the perfect beach vacation home! The only difficulty we had was with the bus— it was often full by the time it got to our stop and would pass us. We had to rely on taxis mostly, but they weren’t hard to get.

Will certainly come back!

We stayed at the place for 4 nights in beginning of May - and loved every moment! The apartment is very large and has three stories. It's very clean and the kitchen has all the necessary equipment to cook. There's a store nearby to do groceries (5 min walk). You have to walk some stairs, but it's better than most apartments in the area! My 65 year old parents were able to do it easily. The view is absolutely stunning, direct view to Positano and in the distance even Capri! Praiano is also perfectly located, I recommend staying here instead of PositanoAmalfi, and just take the bus (5 minutes away walking). The host was extremely helpful, checking in over the chat everyday, and sent us several recommendations. Will certainly come back!

Lovely Location

Francesco at SMAAC was incredibly helpful at any time that I needed, I couldn’t recommend SMAAC more. As for the house itself, we loved the location as the house was in a very quiet and peaceful location yet close to everything. People complain about steps and walking but if you know the Amalfi coast, you know there’s no where you can go where there won’t be steps and walking. The house was very clean and had so much space for all 5 of us. The patio was beautiful. The only thing I can say is the beds aren’t the most comfortable and our power went out a few times and the washer broke but like I said above, Francesco was very quick to help sending out a service technician the next morning. We loved our stay in Praiano!

Wonderful location!

Pros: Loved this town and location! Not overcrowded - walkable restaurants, and amazing views from this home! Very responsive management company. Cons: Home layout is odd - not totally unusual in Italy, but with family room downstairs - somewhat uninviting. Stairs may be difficult for some. The furniture is outdated. Updated and comfortable patio furniture would make this house so much nicer.

Wonderful Stay!

We had a wonderful stay! Villa was exactly as described and the views were amazing. Francesco was our POC and from the moment we booked till after we left, he was in constant communication with us, checking to see that everything was ok and if we needed anything. Their app, that we downloaded had what to expect, what to do and instructions for checking in and departing which made things much easier. When I did have a question, he responded immediately. We were also very impressed that we were provided a video to finding the villa from the exact drive on the main street to the pathway to the front door. Keep in mind it's the Amalfi coast so most everything is a pathway from the main road therefore it can be tricky but that's the charm of it. I would recommend that if you drive there, you secure parking thru them. Even though the lot was a bit of a walk away from the villa, public street parking spots are few and far between. We loved it and look forward to visiting again someday!!

Fantastic Apartment in Great Location....and those views....

This apartment made for a perfect base to explore the Amalfi Coast. On (in my opinion) the better side of Praiano this place has an incredible view over Positano and the sea and we had some amazing sunsets. The apartment was clean and spacious with everything needed. Did I mention the views? Stunning

Nice Apartment in Praiano

La Casa di Nonno Mario offered a spacious bedroom with comfy mattress and bedding, excellent wi-fi and A/C, a spacious terrace with beautiful view, and a clean washing machine. The shower was a bit tight (appx 4’ square), the kitchen was small, and the coffee machine did not work. The 67 stairs leading to the unit were littered with trash and dog feces. Those same stairs are not lit at night so a flashlight is needed in order to arrive safely at the apartment
