About this property

Villa with sea water swimming pool and direct access to the sea

Magnificent villa on three levels with large garden, swimming pool with seawater, descent to private sea.
Built in the 1970s, it enjoys a breathtaking view of Capri and the Gulf of Naples.
It is located in one of the most beautiful corners of the coast of Massa Lubrense, less than ten minutes, by car, from the center of the village.
The villa is divided into two main houses, in the same building, completely independent, which nevertheless use the pool and the descent to the sea.
This description refers only to the property called "Il Geco" subject of the description below. The second property can be occupied by the owners or their guests.
Access to the villa is through an avenue of a private park with automatic gate on the provincial road Massa-Marciano (via IV Novembre, 36).
The swimming pool, used from May to October, is filled with seawater; it is about 10 m x 6 m wide with a depth ranging from 1.5 to 3.5 m. The terraces around the pool, imposing directly on the sea, require assistance for children, as there are no complete fences. There are deckchairs and sunbeds. Bathing in the pool is a unique experience and you can get the impression of being suspended on the sea.
Only 100 steps allow direct access to the sea, through a private descent of the villa, with access to the rocks.
The main entrance of "Il Geco" is entirely occupied by the main living room (about 60 square meters), the dining room, a small bathroom and the kitchen.
The large living room overlooks one of the large terraces with two large window doors; the two large windows at the corners of the room are oriented towards Capri and the Faraglioni and the second towards Vesuvius.
The room has a large fireplace that is fully functional, which, on cooler evenings, becomes the center of the living space, surrounded by sofas. The living room is equipped with a Hi-Fi system with CD player and a turntable (there is an extensive collection of classical music records). In one corner of the room there is a large TV screen, connected to a satellite antenna that allows you to watch the main international channels, as well as Italian TV.
There is phone and open wi-fi connection.
The villa has 4 double bedrooms with independent bathroom and AC. The additional 2 bedrooms with bunk beds, and a room with one and a half square beds and independent bathroom are available on request. The equipment, all perfectly and regularly functioning are the original ones of the villa.
All double rooms have air conditioning.
The total number of beds is 8 (+5 on request).
The main bedroom of the house, is on level -1. It is about 40 square meters and has a large window door on the front terrace (large independent panoramic terrace on level -1) and a side window. The main double bed and furniture are in "Italian" style. In the room there is a separate dressing room with a large mirror. The room has an external and internal telephone line and air conditioning.
The bathroom is in front of the room access pass and has toilet, bidet, sink and shower.
The second double bedroom on level -1 has two windows that open onto two different views. Air conditioning. The attached bathroom has toilet, bidet, sink and shower.
The third double bedroom on level +1, has a panoramic balcony and a side window. The attached bathroom has toilet, sink and shower. Air conditioning.
The fourth double bedroom has two windows and a large private hallway. The attached bathroom has toilet, bidet, sink and shower. Air conditioning.
the 3 optional single rooms have bunk beds. an optional fourth bedroom has a bed a square and a half and independent bathroom and air conditioning.
The construction is from 1970 and therefore, although in good condition, the villa demonstrates a certain age.
Tourist taxes will be paid directly to the owner (7.5 Euro/week/person > 12 years).THere is also to pay the consumption of electricity.This will be calculated through the measurements at the meters at the entrance and returning at check out any savings compared to the amount advanced

Absolute Perfection…. Twice
This is my second stay in Nello’s wonderful villa by the sea. The first time was in March of 2020, as COVID began to impact Italy. Nello and everyone that works with him to care for the property took such amazing care of us back then that we just had to come back.This time, we brought our friends and family with us and spent 5 wonderful nights. At arrival, Sonia met us in the Massa Lubrense town center and showed us how to get to the private community where the villa is located. At the end of a winding driveway, we came to a gate that opens onto a little piece of heaven.The villa is perfect whether you want to have a large group together on a terrace or in the large living room, or if you want to find a quiet place to be alone. The smells of the sea, olive trees, and rosemary greet you at every turn. If you take Nello’s recommendations for cooks to visit the villa, you will have amazing food served by wonderfully kind people.Leaving the villa, there are several paths to walk up into the town center, or down into the harbor through lemon, orange, and olive groves.My only disappointment was realizing that the time had come to leave again. If you have a chance to enjoy this amazing place, I can’t recommend it strongly enough.Thank you, Nello!

Magical
This place (while a little tricky to get to) made our dream vacation magical! The grounds alone are beautiful … the pool … the sea. It was all just perfect! Our host was amazing. Only thing I would change is more pillows and towels. But we did wash them so as it wasn’t ideal to do laundry it didn’t take much to do it. I would give this property a 12 out of 10! Just beautiful

Great stay for our family
This home was perfect for our 3 generation family trip. Plenty of room for the 12 of us, but great space on the main floor and outdoors for us all to hang out together too. Sonja was a dream to work with and was very communicative both before and during our visit. I would gladly recommend this Villa to anyone. We hope to visit again soon!

Large, spacious villa with amazing views
Loved our stay at the villa. Plenty of room and rooms with million door views of Capri, Naples & Mt Vesuvius. Extensive gardens and lovely pool area. Nello and Sonja were easy to communicate with and we’re very helpful, caring and informative. Easy transfers available if required but rental vehicle for shopping, beaches preferred. Villa could do with some maintenance but all in all a fabulous stay.

Gorgeous location , fantastic views!
Beautiful villa , very spacious , a bit old but still in good condition, only the kitchen is not up to the standard but will be completely renewed before the summer I was told by the housekeeper. The communication with the housekeeper Sonja was excellent and she was always immediately available to answer questions and help when needed, suggest restaurants etc. The views from the terraces are incredible, Great pool and a bit tricky but private access to the sea for a swim in the morning or evening are a plus. Perfect place to relax, very private. Hope to be back some time .

This property is stunning. Plenty of rooms for everyone. We had the privilege to stay at Nello's home for 3 days. Friends from the Netherlands met us and we enjoyed a relaxing time together.

Perfect Quiet Paradise!!
I don't know where to begin with describing how enjoyable our stay was at Nello's property. We walked in to paradise - the property had everything our party of 6 could need. Everything was super clean, super accessible, and plenty of space for us to spread out. The property management was exceptionally helpful as well, helping us hire someone for a dinner one night as well as coordinate with a transfer service for rides into town and transfers. We are already looking at dates to potentially come back, as our only complaint is not staying long enough!!

Our wonderful adventure!
We were a group of 15 and the experience in this home was beyond our wildest hopes and dreams. The home is presented just as it looks in the pictures. If ever we had questions or needs they were addressed immediately. The home was clean, comfortable and helped create the best lifelong memories! Everyone on the house team was suburb and I found we were treated like long lost family instead of paying guests of a rental.

Views For Days
We had a wonderful time, the views are amazing. Sonia, the property manager was very responsive anytime we had a question. Sonia recommended a local couple to cook us dinner our first night and it was amazing! Tips for your stay - Purchase groceries before or have Sonia have them delivered as it is a trek to the store. Use Sonia recommendations for transportation, we were a group of 7 and found some services concerned about driving a big van down but Sonia’s connections had no problem making it down and were very prompt with pick-ups. Would stay again.

Beautiful villa with unbelievable views
Villa Polese is a very special place - it's HUGE and the layout is perfect for families, especially with younger kids. The balcony is stunning and has views of Vesuvius and Capri. The property has so many delightful surprises - we loved the walk down to the water. The location is also great, with Massa Lubrense having every convenience needed and a very short distance to Sorrento. Sonja was extremely easy to communicate with and very responsive. We just had a magical time and highly recommend this property. Just one word of caution that the driveway down to the villa is a little difficult to maneuver so be sure to pay attention to the advice on vehicle size.

Absolutely Wonderful!
We arrived for 8 days at the villa with our 5 children from the US. The property was fantastic...exactly as described. Unbelievable views and sunsets. The location was idea for us to get to Capri, Positano and Ravello. We were able to go boating, swimming, relax at private beach clubs and visit all of the wonderful local sites. They are not kidding about the ants...it is important to keep food up and not drop crumbs or they will come out in full force. That is a small inconvenience for such a special place. I would highly recommend this home...it was perfect!

Exceeded our expectatations
We stayed here for week with 11 people, including seven adults and four children. The property was spacious and well laid out; each family had their own separate area with two bedrooms and a bath and a large great room to get together. There were also two large decks and a pool deck each offering amazing views of the Mediterranean, Vesuvius and Capri. The sunsets were absolutely stunning. Nello and his brother (the owners) and Sonja (property manager) met us at the property to make for quick and easy check in. Sonja arranged multiple excursions, dinners at the property and provided local recommendations that were fantastic, and made our planning very easy. I highly recommend the on-property dinners; we had a pizza night and pasta night. The chef Titina was a wonderful and the food and service was top notch.
