Villino Blu is built on two levels, which follow the contour of the steep rocky cliff. Its rooms and terraces face the sun, the sea and the sky.


You will arrive to a terrace which will be your private parking lot. A stairway of 15 steps, placed next to the parking lot, will take you straight to the terrace of the house. You will have to stop to admire the fascinating view of the sea and of the coast that will be in front of you.


Your sight will go over an uninterrupted view of a wide horizon of sea and sky, enclosed on the right by a cape coverd by olive trees and on the left by a large tract of splendid coast.


The tract of coast that you will be able to admire goes from the village of Praiano, made up of little white houses which cling to a green promontory, to the ancient Watch Tower on the sea, to the elegant promontory of Cape Conca.


Looking down from the terrace you will see the coast below your feet that steeply dives into the sea. At the back of the house you will see the profile of the Lattari mountains, the mountains of the Amalfi Coast.


The air is clear, clean and perfumed by the nearby lemon groves. All around there is tranquillity and peace: you will immediately feel that this will be your favorite place to relax and allow the magic beauty that is around to charm you.


The terraces of Villino Blu are lighted, and you will find that they are a perfect place to dine under the stars, in front of the reflection of the moon in the sea.


The closest beach is the charming beach of Marina di Praia, situated in a point where a small valley dug by the erosion meets, among the high rocks, a sea of the color of the emerald.


You can walk there along a tract of the coastal road, and then taking a "scalinatella" that will take you to the Saracen watch tower by the sea. From there you will be able to take a charming downhill pedestrian alley, cut into the rock, sheer above the sea, which will take you to the beach.


Along the walk you will find a couple of small and characteristic cafes and restaurants, open in the good season, where you will be able to have breakfast or dine on the rocks above the sea.


The entrance to the house is located on a little road which is only open to local traffic.

The pictures online do not do it justice
The pictures online do not do it justice! The views are amazing. The home has everything you need and then some. It was perfect. Even has private parking which is rare on the Amalfi Coast. Gianluca, our host was amazing! He helped us with local secrets of where to go and where to eat. He helped with transfers and was an all around amazing host. Goes above and beyond! We will be sending a few friends here and we will return to stay. It really was perfect. Summer In Italy was easy to book with. No issues. They were very responsive.

Holiday 7/2023
My friend and I stayed at the Villino Blu for 7d/6n. The home is very lovely, clean and a quiet great location. It comes with a parking space, which for us was very important. The beds are comfortable and rooms are spacious. The air conditioner was working perfectly the entire time. The bathrooms are small! The showers are very small. I am 5'3" and 135lbs, I found the shower stall very uncomfortable and at times I had to turn water off just to be able to move myself better to clean. We had trouble once with the water pressure and the issue was taken care of and resolved immediately. The owner/manager was always a phone call/text away and always answered us within 30 min. He was both helpful and very easy to work with. The view is spectacular and cannot be beat. Being able to walk up and see the sun come up over the mountains and onto the sea was quite possibly the most amazing time of the day. The public beach is walking distance (about 15-20min) however remember when walking down, you need to walk back up and there are many steep inclines and steps. There are a few restaurants and the local market for food was walking distance as well. The local bus is 2 min walk from Villa and easy to figure out so you can get to Positano or Amalfi. The manager was also willing to pick us up from Positano if we missed the bus back, which was above and beyond in my book. You will not be disappointed with Villino Blu, very nice start to our 2 week holiday

Casa Vela is amazing
Casa Vela is amazing. Best views in the best town on the Amalfi Coast. Incredible outdoor space with the two terraces, both of which are huge. Kitchen is super well-equipped, bedroom is incredible, well situated and large. Having two beautiful bathrooms is a luxury. If one had to look far and wide for the slightest thing to complain about, it would be the terraces are so big and accommodating, the view from inside is limited. But who wants to be inside when on the Amalfi Coast??!! Absolutely nothing can be done to improve the terrific service and attention we received from Summer in Italy. From communication, to flexibility to information, Summer in Italy was fantastic.
