This little apartment is fabulous. The panoramic view of the Mediterranean from the veranda is to die for. The town of Minori is a short walk and had everything you need. The apartment is small, but it has everything nicely arranged.Also Mr Mario was a great help with showing us the town and with transportation.We didn't want to leave.

Amalfi Dreams - Nailed it!

Everywhere you look is gorgeous. Mario was the perfect host. He helped us get acquainted with the town and set up drivers for us. Without him, our vacation would not have been as good! The walks to Minori was a delight. The people of the town were warm and welcoming. Catching a bus to Amalfi was easy and inexpensive. I can't wait to go back!!

Our stay was amazing. The apartment was adorable, the location was great (just a short walk into Minori and the bus stops a few steps from the door) and the private balcony was perfection. Mario is the warmest, kindest, and most helpful host we have ever encountered through our rentals on this app, truly making us feel like friends/family visiting.

Amazing View and Location

My wife and I loved staying here. Everything about our stay was amazing. Breathtaking views from the patio and such a fun city. Close to the restaurants and shopping in Minori and Mario made the check in very easy and was very helpful. This stay was the highlight of our trip to Italy and we hope to return again and stay at this amazing home.

Amalfi Dreams was a dream come true!

I cannot begin to thank Mario enough for the attention and care he gave my family on our trip to the Amalfi Coast. My sister and I lost our significant others recently and planning a trip without them was nothing short of an act of courage. Mario was always a WhatsApp text away with an answer, a suggestion or a remedy. From beginning to end we felt he truly cared. And a huge thanks to Dario for giving that memorable ride along the Amalfi Coast all the way to Positano in a golf cart! And thanks also for stopping at the Fjord Furore!!! We are recommending La Clarissa/ Amalfi Dreams to EVERYONE we know. The house was perfect! We actually chose to stay and relax there as opposed to over extending ourselves visiting places like Pompeii and Amalfi although both were EASILY accessible. Pompeii we are saving for our next trip. We can’t wait to return to our home away from home. Grazie Mille! Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Charlotte and Catherine from Newburyport, Massachusetts .

The perfect writer’s escape

My spouse and I took a working vacation to the Amalfi Coast to both write and see the area. This cottage is small while providing all that wea needed: small kitchen for simple home meals, a full bath plus small half bath next to bedroom, and small living room. Of course, the selling point is the stunning view combined with privacy. The wide terrace/patio is exactly as pictured and adds so much space. We practically lived on the terrace. Also, Mario, the property manager, is extremely helpful, answering a million questions and even sending a taxi to rescue us when we hiked up to Ravello (it’s 1000 steps straight up!) too late in the day to walk back down in the dark. The cottage is literally on the main coast road, so there is noise from the road, which we quickly adjusted to. Also, unit is on two floors, which worked fine for us. Would rent again in a heartbeat.

Magnificent Minori

What a woderful place to stay! Mario was a wonderful host, so kind and welcoming. The villa is beautiful with amazing views from the terrace and out every window. We enjoyed eating outside every day. Minori is quaint and everyone was friendly. Golf Cart Minori was fantastic with helping to get us and our luggage from the ferry to the villa. We highly recommend this rental and woukd love to stay again ❤️

Romantic Getaway Exactly as Advertised

My wife and I had a wonderful time at this property. Mario was a fantastic host and we enjoyed chatting with him and his wife Filamena over a glass of wine at a nearby cafe. The views were unbelievable, and the villa was clean, fresh, and well equipped. Others commented on the nearby road, but we honestly didn't find it much of a big deal. We would definitely recommend La Clarissa and would stay here again.

Quaint cottage with sprawling terrace to enjoy magnificent seaside views of the Amalfi Coast.

Our stay at the La Clarissa cottage was spectacular! Our host Mario was friendly, informative and accommodating, he contacted us the day before to arrange a meeting place and time for check in. Mario accompanied us to the cottage for a tour and overview of La Clarissa. Aside from the tricky location of the cottage on the Via Marmorata, (the main coastal road), the location is perfect, just 5 minutes walk to the town of Minori. The cottage was bright, spacious, clean and tastefully decorated. There was plenty of room for 2 of us, with separate living spaces upstairs/downstairs and a bathroom on each floor, the kitchen had everything we needed. The spiral staircase was a bit challenging for my 6’4” husband, however there is a second set of straight stairs outside that lead to the second floor as an alternative. The outdoor space with the huge terrace is why I chose this rental, it was absolutely phenomenal! The La Clarissa exceeded my expectations, I would definitely recommend this rental for a couple looking for rest and relaxation with incredible views of the seaside of Amalfi Coast.Pros: seaside views, comfortable/clean cottage, location near small non-touristy town, plenty of restaurants/shopping, easy access to ferry, bus.Cons: location on busy road with minimal walking space, traffic noise at times, not ideal for children or those with accessibility needs..

Paradise

Incredible stay in paradise! The view from the terrace is spectacular and the apartment was carefully designed with a beautiful kitchen and lovely bathrooms. Our host Mario went above and beyond to help us make the most of our stay. Minori is lovely with easy access to Amalfi and The Path of the Gods not to mention excellent restaurants and cafes. As an American I found walking on the road outside the villa as cars whizzed by a bit intimidating but it's all part of the experience and it's actually very safe. A true highlight of our Italian vacation!

beautiful house but a few notes

This property has a magnificent view and plenty of charm. The pizza oven is incredible. However, the parking spot requires a walk down a very busy road to the house. It's a narrow, two-way, winding road with no shoulder, where the cars go whizzing past very quickly. Especially at night, it didn't feel safe to walk from the car to the house. The house also could be better equipped; there were no extra blankets and it was very cold downstairs (we were there in the winter) and there also was nothing provided for us to clean with -- no paper towels, no mop, and no broom which presented problems for us. In spite of these things, it is a beautiful property and a special place.

Brief holiday in Amalfi area

Stunning views and beautiful terrace to enjoy them. Very easy walk into town of Minori (6 mins) and lovely long walks both to Meiori (on the ancient lemon trail) and up partway towards Ravello via Castigliano through Atrani and to Amalfi, with a 15 minute water taxi back. Because the Villa is located very near a blind corner on the windy road, buses and cars honk often (even at night) to warn oncoming vehicles of their approach, so it’s a little noisy - but expected.

Spectacular Terrace View of the Sea!

We enjoyed sitting on the terrace drinking coffee and wine. Mario was exceptionally helpful with arrival, check-in and activity suggestions. Mario arranged a driver to take us to various locations along the coast. This experience was very memorable. We visited in February, outside of peak tourist season so the traffic was manageable. The ten minute walk to Minori along the busy winding road was scary at times. This place is not suitable for anyone with mobility challenges. Taxi from Salerno train station costs anywhere from 75 -90 euros.

A slice of paradise

We had the most unforgettable stay...my teenage son wants to move to Ravello! The view was unbeatable, whether getting dressed in the morning, fixing a snack in the afternoon or drinking wine on the terrace at sunset....a view from every room. Chrystal clear beach and great restaurants within walking distance, bus stop across the street - the location was amazing. We visited the busier towns of Positano and Amalfi and the quieter neighbouring towns by bus and by ferry - we hiked the Path of Gods and Path of Lemons, every location was very accessible. The Property Manager and Mario were very communicative and provided exceptional service. Mario helped us out of a bind on more than one occasion , he was so doting and helpful and always with a smile on his face - the best service we received on our entire 3-week trip to Italy.

Fantastic View!

After a bit of difficulty finding this place, our fault for not using google maps! we were welcomed by the property manager who had been very patient with us attempting to locate the apartment. The apartment is as advertised. There is a spiral staircase connecting the bedroom and the main floor that is quite steep but we utilized the outside staircase to carry our bags in and out. There is noise as other reviewers have stated but we live in a large city and were not bothered by the traffic. The view from the patio and bedroom walkout is spectacular! We took advantage of both the bbq and a washing machine. Parking was off site and cost extra. We chose to leave the car parked and walked everywhere. The host provided a few items for our first breakfast which was greatly appreciated.
