Casa Sunset - Panoramic terrace overlooking Positano and Capri
Casa Sunset is a little corner of paradise that captures the timeless charm of the Amalfi Coast. Here, the beauty of traditional arches and intricately decorated ceramic tiles blends seamlessly with a simple, airy atmosphere. Its minimalist yet elegant style offers breathtaking panoramic views, with a privileged perspective over the sea, Positano, and Capri. Every corner of the house has been designed to make the most of the unforgettable sunsets, which can be admired from its two terraces that seem to float between the sky and the sea.
To reach Casa Sunset, you’ll walk about 400 meters along a picturesque path, alternating steps and winding trails—a quintessential feature of Praiano that adds to the charm of the experience. The house is not accessible by car, but this makes the stay even more special, immersing you in the serene beauty of the village and its stunning vistas.
The house is laid out on a single floor and includes:
• Entrance through a panoramic patio, equipped with a barbecue and outdoor dining table, set beneath a canopy of bougainvillea
• Water front panoramic terrace, with Seafront panoramic terrace with sun loungers, garden seating area, and an outdoor shower
• Living room with dining area, sofa bed (sofa size 160x190) and a dining table for six people
• Fully equipped kitchen with a dishwasher
• 2 double bedrooms (160x190) with access to the panoramic terrace
• 2 bathrooms with showers, one with access from the master bedroom
Casa Sunset is located just above the famous San Gennaro Church, along the path leading to the Sentiero degli Dei. The quickest way to reach the house is from the upper part of Praiano, where a 400-meter trail with around 70 steps will bring you to the entrance. Alternatively, you can reach the center of Praiano via a staircase of about 200 steps. A private parking space is available about 650 meters from the property for a fee. Alternatively, you can park in public spaces about 200 meters away. A porter service can be arranged upon arrival for a fee.
NOTE: During the high season, parking may be especially difficult to find. We recommend booking the parking space in advance to ensure availability.
Within walking distance of the house, you’ll find:
• One Fire Beach Club (about 20 minutes on foot)
• Bars and restaurants (about 5 minutes on foot)
• A small grocery store (about 5 minutes on foot)
• Local bus stop (about 5 minutes on foot)
• SITA bus stop (about 5 minutes on foot)
NOTE: All of these locations are accessible only by descending stairs, a characteristic feature of Praiano, where many services are located lower down in the village.

Lovely stay!
We had a lovely stay!! The communication was top tier, we were checked in on everyday and if I had any questions we received a response within 5 minutes. Praiano is perfect to stay in if you’re looking for relaxation and a community vibe. The apartment was beautiful and we are so grateful to have booked with Casa Sunset. There are bus stops, cafes, and markets near by as well! You can either take the stairsgo around using the road.

Dear Viola,
Thank you so much for your wonderful review!
We are truly delighted to hear that you had such a lovely stay and that you appreciated our communication and daily support throughout your visit. It means a lot to us to know that you felt well taken care of.
Praiano is indeed a special place for those seeking relaxation and an authentic community atmosphere, and we’re so happy you enjoyed both the location and the apartment.
It was a pleasure hosting you at Casa Sunset, and we would be absolutely delighted to welcome you back in the future!
Kind regards,

The property was very nice, stocked, and clean. It is a bit remote and requires 225 stairs or a longer walk to access the main roads for taxi, bus, or shops. Francesco was great and helped coordinate transfers and checked in daily to make sure we had everything we needed. It was a wonderful stay and would recommend this villa (as long as you are okay with the location).
We spent three nights at Casa Sunset. It has great views of its two patios. We loved that the bedrooms opened up onto the patio. Kitchen is super cute.

This was the most beautiful VRBO! We loved its stunning views of Positano and Capri. The inside had beautiful Amalfi decor. Every bedroom had a balcony with a view. We didn’t want to leave!
The location of the house was wonderful. The view was amazing. We travelled to many of the towns along the coast and loved Praiano the most!

Exceptional house with a breathtaking view. Very clean and had everything that our family needed. The host was extremely helpful and always answered our questions and inquiries very quickly. The instructions to get to the house for the check in were clear. Be prepared for a lot of stairs, just like everywhere in this area. The parking was far from the house, but the tenants of the parking were very helpful and accommodating. We would definitely go back and we highly recommend this house, as well as the town of Praiano itself.

We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Sunset! The management was extremely responsive and very helpful. The guidebook has tons of useful information on it. We had some difficulty finding the house on when we arrived so perhaps sending guests a map pin to the front door would be more helpful than the video. The house was very comfortable. The view from the porch is as amazing as it looks in the photos. There are 230 steps to get down to the main road so be sure to wear sturdy sneakers but the restaurants in Praiano are worth it. Be sure to check out Miragalli, Km0, and I'll Pino.

Our stay in Praiano was truly exceptional, the highlight of our trip.
The views were breathtaking, and Praiano itself is a charming, tranquil town. Its central location made it convenient to explore nearby areas, yet it remained peaceful and private. The host was incredibly communicative and responsive, arranging a car transfer for us and offering valuable local recommendations. If you're seeking a serene escape from the hustle of more tourist-heavy destinations, this is the perfect spot. Highly recommended!
This property was clean, had everything we needed and had the most beautiful view. Anytime we had questions about the property or area we received a swift response. The check in process was made easy with a how to video. Thanks for the amazing stay!!

We really enjoyed our relaxing stay at Casa Sunset. The pictures don’t do the beauty of the sunsets justice. We had a great time going down the steps to the market every day and gathering fresh food and wine for a dinner and relaxing evening. The location away from busy Positano in Praiano is perfect for those wanting to enjoy the Amalfi Coast without all the other tourists.

Terrace Views That Take Your Breath Away
We had a wonderful stay at Casa Sunset in Praiano! The outdoor terraces were absolutely stunning—sunsets over the water each evening were unforgettable. The home was very clean, well-maintained, and exactly as described. Communication with SMAAC was excellent—clear, timely, and helpful throughout our stay.
Although there were quite a few stairs to reach the unit, we honestly didn’t mind—it added to the charm and authenticity of staying in a beautiful hill town on the Amalfi Coast. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!
There was construction going on in the unit below during our stay, which we weren’t aware of ahead of time. Also, the showers had some inconsistency with hot and cold water, which could be improved.

A perfect location for Sunsets!
Overall this is a wonderful home.
The views are amazing.
Francesco and the SMAAC team were very attentive and accommodating.
Great location to base out of for day trips South to Amalfi or North to Positano. Both were a 20-30 min drive in August.
WiFi in the rear of the house and outside on the terraces was spotty.

A perfect area to stay and explore all of the Amalfi Coast
Excellent hosts who gave excellent instructions and were proactive in communication. We booked last minute and they were still ready for us, which went a long way. The view in this home is incredible. We spent almost all our time on the patio! We enjoyed the neighborhood because it is quiet and lovely. Good local cafes nearby and a very convenient grocery store (lots of stairs like everything in the Amalfi, but very close to the home.) Overall it is a good space with an incredible view and the location is close enough to everything you could want.

Very nice place with fantastic views of the Amalfi Coast.
Being positioned midway between Positano and Amalfi made it convenient to visit both. Yes, there are a lot of steps - but that’s typical in Praiano. Having two furnished terraces and a washing machine was a big plus. The house could use a little sprucing up but it’s comfortable and spacious. Rosa and especially Francesco were great - both in planning things before we arrived and in keeping in touch and helping book rides etc. while we were there.
The manager that we dealt with, Francessco, was the best! He contacted us every day to make sure things were good! If we had a problem he responded immediately. We couldn’t have asked for better service. Town was quiet, quaint, and had everything we needed. Bus service was close by to travel to neighboring amalfi towns. We highly recommend.
