We had a wonderful time in Villa Ludovica. It was a great base for day trips in exploring Cilento. Relaxing by the pool was a great day to end our days of exploration.
The villa was lovely, very clean and in a great location. We really appreciated the tourist brochures provided in the villa.
Summer In Italy was exceptional in helping us with booking accommodation and providing information for activities. The newsletter was an inspiration and helped in building our knowledge and excitement as the trip drew closer.

As a family of five
As a family of five (2 adults, 3 kids) we had an excellent stay at Villa Ludovica. Spacious accommodation, very clean, and kitchen well stocked with everything, or even more, a family needs. Very secure with plenty of parking.
Good size, very clean pool and great outdoor spaces.
We highly recommend Villa Ludovica for location, amenities and space. It was our seventh visit to Santa Maria di Castellabate and we have to be honest, this villa is the best we found until now.
Warm welcome by Ilenia although we were late. Ilenia and her family were extremely friendly and relaxed. There is nothing to improve! Everything is perfect and well kept! Thanks a lot to Ilenia and her family and to Summer In Italy too!
Communication with Summer In Italy prior to arrival was exceptional, clear and fast! Perfect! Thanks a a lot!

This is a very large apartment in a villa where the owners live above
This is a very large apartment in a villa where the owners live above. It would easily accommodate 3 couples or a large family.
The villa has the best equipped kitchen I have ever seen. Top quality pots and pans - everything you need.
The outside area is around a pool (shared with the owners) but we were there in a cold week so did not use that area. We used the terrace by the front door, which had very nice furnishings.

The property is very spacious
The property is very spacious. Villa Ludovica, as other guests have remarked, is very well equipped. The pool is an excellent size for swimming and well maintained.
The location is perfect for exploring the Cilento, the historic sites of Pompeii, Herculaneum and Paestum with sandy beaches within walking distance.
You have been very quick to respond and your advice on renting properties in Italy has us all in fits of laughter! I have to admit I booked with you because I was searching for a villa with pool in Santa Maria di Castellabate and it was the only one that came up. Having said that we have been very pleased with Summer In Italy service.
Als Familie mit 3 Jungs haben wir die Woche in der Villa Ludovica absolut genossen. Wir haben schon viele Male Castellabate besucht, aber dieses Haus ist mit Sicherheit die beste Adresse, die wir bis jetzt gefunden haben. Die Villa bietet mehr als genügend Platz, ist blitzsauber, gepflegt und sehr komfortabel. Es ist alles zu finden, was man braucht. Mehrere grosszügige und funktionierende Nasszellen, ein nützlicher Haushaltsraum zum Waschen, bügeln etc. Auch die Küche lässt keine Wünsche offen. Sie ist geräumig und komplett ausgestattet, mit fast allem, was man sich vorstellen kann, Sehr viel Geschirr und gute scharfe Messer. Wir haben häufig gekocht oder auf der Terrasse grilliert. Der Pool wurde v.a. von unseren Kindern rege und mit Freude benutzt. Die Vermieter bewohnen selbst den oberen Teil des Hauses. Sie sind extrem freundlich, liebenswert, zuverlässig pünktlich, dabei aber vollkommen entspannt und zurückhaltend. Wir haben uns rundum wohl und sicher gefühlt. Die Villa Ludovica ist uneingeschränkt zu empfehlen und falls wir das nächste Mal nach Santa Maria die Castellabate reisen, würden wir von Herzen gerne wieder dort wohnen.

Spacious and well appointed villa for a friendly and relaxing holiday.
Great welcome by Ilenia [the owner] with tour of the villa. Spacious accommodation, very clean and kitchen well stocked with everything a family needs. Very secure with plenty of parking. Good size pool and great outdoor spaces.
Ilenia and her family were extremely friendly. Our grandchildren even had free swimming instruction.
We highly recommend this villa for location, amenities and space.
Communication with Summer In Italy prior to arrival was exceptional and nothing was too much trouble. We booked this villa because it had a swimming pool and as we are a family of 9 with 4 grandchildren it was perfect. We would go back. Thank you for all you help.

Such a beautiful villa
Such a beautiful villa. There were 5 adults in our party and we never felt crowded or in one another's space. The villa was immaculate and had everything you could ask for. Amazing pool area with lovely terraces and plenty of sun beds and shade when necessary. Incredible kitchen area with all modern appliances. The separate utility room was fantastic - we made good use of the washing machine while we were there. All bedrooms was very comfortable and there were three bathrooms - never had to wait to use the bathroom!! All in all a little piece of paradise - you could not ask for more!
Ilenia and her family were so welcoming and we couldn't have picked a nicer place for our holiday. The villa is incredible and Ilenia does everything to make sure her guests are well catered for. She is beyond friendly and we loved staying in her beautiful home. Thank you Ilenia!
Summer In Italy is an excellent company - lots of communication and answers to queries were prompt and efficient. Will definitely recommend and use again in the future. Thank you.

Villa Ludovica is charming, modern, fully equipped and the owners/their children absolutely delightful. The rooms are spacious, bathrooms excellent, a bonus dishwasher/laundry room and two sofabeds in the living room which easily accommodated our party of six adults and two children plus two cars.
Ilenia, our host, could not have been more hospitable or kind, rushing our daughter to the Doctor when she was poorly and waiting for several hours. Ilenia - we promised we'll come back and we will!
In short, torn between keeping this place a secret and giving a glowing review!!
Summer In Italy was great. Can't fault it.
