About this property

IL SORRISO - HOLIDAY APARTMENT - SAN FRANCESCO - MASSA LUBRENSE - SORRENTO COAST

Vacation apartment Il Sorriso is a graceful two bedroom apartment of approximately 100 square meters which sleeps four persons. Beautifully and comfortably furnished, this apartment is ideal for those who wish to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the Sorrentine peninsula and relax by the swimming pool amidst the lemon groves.

It is located on the ground floor of a country villa with independent access from the main entrance of the property through electrically commanded gates. It has a patio equipped with table and chairs to relax and dine outdoors. The patio at the side of the apartment is shaded by a Gazebo and from here you can see the blue of the sea framed by the green of the foliage of olives trees and lemon trees.
The apartment has antique and modern furniture. Entrance is from ground floor patio onto large lounge / dining room. Open plan kitchen well equipped, Double bedroom, Twin bedroom, Bathroom with bath tub and shower screen.
A small communal laundry room with washing machine is situated on the grounds of the villa.

Il Sorriso shared swimming pool measures 7,50 m X 4,00 m. and its depth is from 1,00 m. to 1,80 m. Owner will have the pool open as from end of May to the beginning of October, but promised that if weather continues to hold he will not empty the pool ‘till end of October!
You will be able to reach the swimming pool by climbing 15 steps amongst the lemon and olive trees which surround the villa.

The apartment is reached through a narrow and ancient country road, approximately 250 meters long, from the large Piazza S. Francesco, where large cars parking is available and luggage porterage is included both on arrival and departure.

"This road was built centuries ago, when the only transportation was provided by one´s own feet and perhaps a mule.
The purpose of the road was to provide a short path among the fruit trees to reach the property. Hard to believe, the road has been left just the way it was, with its characteristic stone wall on the edges, except for the pavement that has been improved to let a very small car go through. While making the access to the property more difficult, this road also has assured that the area stay free of pollution and noise, and the air is fresh and clean like in few other places. Along this very same road the centre of Massa Lubrense can be reached in fifteen minutes on foot".

The other two holiday apartments that comprise the villa are - Gioia - La Vigna.

The property was lovely a bit surprised how many other apartments there was there and the property owners family live with them that obviously had problems but it wasn’t as quiet and relaxing as we were expecting as dogs barked a lot and their daughter shouted very loudly very early in the mornings

Melena M., Auckland , New Zealand

Even better than the pictures
This is just a wonderful retreat away from the madness that is the Amalfi in summer. Set in a tranquil lemon grove, with a really good sized apartment for a family and all the necessary mod-cons. Note though, the plugs do not fit standard european 2 prong adaptors and there is nowhere really close by to get another. The agent was quite exceptional in getting us to the property and explaining everything we needed to know, very thorough, with excellent english. We would stay again in a heartbeat.

Appartement médiocre dans un bel environnement
Appartement individuel dans une grande maison au milieu des citronniers. Les voisins italiens sont particulièrement gentils et bienveillants. Par contre, l appartement est bruyant, décoré avec des vieilleries de qualité médiocre. Pas de rangement dans la salle de bain, 1 cafetière d une personne pour 4, canapé défoncé, literie dure, pas de micro onde, fer à repasser qu il faut partager avec toute la propriété. .... bref! Trop cher pour les prestations offertes. Nous serons plus vigilants la prochaine fois.

Matig
De lokatie van dit huis is prima alleen als je slecht ter been bent is het moeilijk bereikbaar omdat het laatste stuk niet met de auto te doen is. Het huis is klein en onderdeel van een groter huis. De eigenaar woont direct boven je en er is erg veel overlast van geluid en schuiven met stoelen en banken vanaf 5.00 uur in de ochtend.. Alles is basici, geen luxe.

Fantastic!
Just back from two weeks. It's raining in Scotland. How I will I was back at Il Sorriso! The property is lovely. Plenty of space for the 3 of us ( and would have done our other Daughter has she been able to come with us). It's very rustic, but we loved the remoteness, and enjoyed our short 200 meter walk along the narrow track from the car park. The pool is lovely, set in a Lemon grove with fruit all around us till the harvest. The restaurant along in the village was ideal for morning coffees and the evening meals were lovely and great value. Even the take away pizza was wonderful. I particularly enjoyed my walks into Sorrento along the narrow winding lanes, and that I I could get to the heart of Town in under an hour (getting back took a little longer as it's quite a steep climb out of town at first!). Lots to see and do all around us. Wish we'd set off earlier and had longer to explore Capri which was wonderful! Wish I'd bought a car park ticket and avoided the fine that day too. Live and learn. Loved the drive up to Amalfi, the train to Pompeii was an adventure as was our walk up from t he National Parl to the top of Vesuvius. The owners were very friendly, but with little English (But probably better than my Italian!), however we somehow manged to communicate just fine. I'd recommend this property to none with reasonable health ( there are some steep climbs), a sense of adventure and who is looking for a lovely spot to swim and relax afterwards. How I wish I was back there now. Thanks very much.
