About this property

Blessed villa directly on the sea.

Beauty is difficult to define and it leaves the beholder speechless and breathless. It may be for this reason That the guests at Villa Benedetta write few words in the guest book.

For many of them it is simply the 'most beautiful house on the Amalfi Coast'. For others it is 'a piece of paradise' or simply 'paradise' This is not difficult to understand and we proudly Represent it as an authentic jewel of local architecture.

Constructed During the golden age of architecture on the Amalfi Coast, Villa Benedetta was for many years the retreat of two classic Italian ladies; two sisters, dedicated to art and culture, who gave birth to a family refuge perched far away from any confusion, every intrusion, every banality and vulgarity of the world.

It is September harmoniously into the rock, facing and overhanging the sea. Villa Benedetta is the ideal residence for whoever wants to rediscover the pleasures and the tastes of the good life.

Surrounded by nature with dream-like glimpses from every window, Villa Benedetta is the perfect house for staying together and sharing precious moments of intimacy with loved ones.

There are no neighbors to disturb, no noise from the world to upset the peaceful quiet of the breezes off the sea, the light of the sky and the perfume of the flowers.

There are many little angles ideal for eating, reading, napping, chatting, being together, hand-holding and getting back in touch. Terraces, sunning spots, little oases of centuries-old Mediterranean brush and a splendid barbecue area complete the exterior of this home That is completely enveloped in the panorama of one of the most fascinating corners of the Gulf of Salerno.

The interior of the home, with a fully- equipped kitchen, two bathrooms, living room and 4 bedrooms is comfortable, elegant and rich in style details.

The furnishings are contemporary and the home has all modern comforts including internet service. The beach is directly under the villa and there you will find one of the most beautiful fishing villages on the Amalfi Coast with a little church, bars, wonderful restaurants all scattered here and there along romantic little lanes.

The SITA bus stop Which connects to Amalfi and Sorrento and the 'orange' Which bus connects with the center of Praiano and Positano is a mere 60 steps below the villa.

During the summer season there is boat service for Capri and Ischia and the Possibility of private boat rental on the beach.

Stunning Villa with spectacular views

A wonderful stay at Villa Benedetta! The Villa had the most amazing views! We adored the little area of Marina Di Praiano, it was magical. Maria was very helpful and checking in and out was seamless.

Breathtaking

We had an amazing visit to Praiano and the home was fantastic. Amazing location overlooking the ocean and the beach club below. Walking distance to some great restaurants and any easy pickup location for boat shuttles and excursions up and down the coast. Stairs are not for the faint of heart or elderly, but we’ll worth the view!

Villa Benedetto in Praiano

Wonderful stay! Beautiful villa in Praiano near the marina. The host gave contact information for Chef Baldo, who cooked for us the first night we arrived. It was amazing! The host also recommended a driver who was a great help. Highly recommend!!!

Excellent Location for an Amalfi Experience

House was excellent- only challenge was finding parking and the 76 steps to get to the house. For young people with stamina. This is a great house. Maria was an excellent property manager.

Paradise

incredible views, iconic house on a cliff with a beautiful stairway up to the house. Short walk down to beach with good restaurants. Not for the faint of heart regarding heights.

Beautiful Experience

The Villa is conveniently located between Amalfi and Positano (15 min from each) and has some of the best views you’ll probably experience in your lifetime. The beach is a ten minute walk surrounded by cafes and restaurants, right next to the parking lot (35 euros/day to park). Thank you again to Maria, the host. She was always there ready to answer any questions we had.

Heaven

We had our own private world in a villa that was fabulous. We had the sunrise and sunset from our cliff top location. Many places did not do due to the hills. Location was perfect as Bus stop #12 was just around the corner and very walkable to restaurants and shops. At the bottom of our villa a short walk took you to the beach and marina for water taxis or day long boat tours. We would definitely stay there again next time we visit the Amalfi coast! Our host Maria was great too!!

Villa Benedetta exceeded all expectations!

The photo views on the listing do not do this villa justice - the views are breathtaking and something that one must visit to experience. Maria was a fantastic host helping us to book transit from Naples to Praiano, as well as providing contact details to organize a private chef on the date of our arrival (highly, highly recommend Chef Balda - multiple courses of local Amalfi Coast cuisine with not one bad dish!). We originally had only booked two nights, but loved our stay so much that we extended an additional night! The Amalfi Coast has so much to offer on land and sea, so do not hesitate in booking Villa Benedetta!

Villa Benedetta exceeded all expectations!

This place is a dream, mostly due to a very special location. People mention the stairs- they were my favorite part of the house, elegantly wrapping the cliffside on which the house is perfectly perched. You are on the edge of Praiano with this one, but you have Donna Clelia in the cove below which took great care of us and was a delight. Costa Diva opened on our last day in the house - very, very nice. We had hot water go out one day - Maria replied immediately and had someone come repair it within one hour. We requested groceries and they were waiting for us upon arrival. I truly miss this house and would love to return in future.

House was very basic with no thrills.

We have had this house saved in our history and waiting to go for 5 years. The location was great! Right by the Marina de prae where there is a bus stop, but we went down to the marina each day and took boat taxis to each of the locations we wanted to visit. It was awesome! The house could use a renovation. Mattresses were rough so sleeping quality wasn't great. But the view and location are awesome!! Overall the house was everything we expected them to be!!

A Truly Blessed (Benedetta) Stay

WOW! More than we could’ve ever imagined. We enjoyed our first evening at Villa Benedetta having dinner on the terrace, curated and served by Chef Balda. A candle lit dinner under a beautiful star fall with fresh ocean breezes. Chef Balda meticulously paired each serving with excellent wines. All the food was either from his farm or locally selected. You will never have olive oil beyond his own. All the wines were of his own vintage. Maria, your host, made this recommendation along with many others, from transportation to local dining to grocery delivery!! Maria was thorough, kind, loving and generous with her time and understanding. She was very prompt in her response from before our stay, all the way until we departed. The area is amazing for floating in the Mediterranean Sea, day trip to Positano, water taxis at your request, and good meals right in Marina di Praia. Views from Villa Benedetta were breathtaking, beds were comfortable, views up the mountain and over the sea were equally serene. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets were experienced every day. Cool breezes blew through the house every day. Having A/C units in each room can be very helpful in the warmer months. Praiano is not for the faint of heart as there are steep hills, stairs everywhere…great for beautiful views and walking off the delicious meals. Thank you owners and host very much for a magical, blessed vacation.
