Paradise tucked away in Furore

This place was fantastic! It’s tucked away from the hustle and bustle of tourists found in Amalfi and Positano. The hosts are amazing and thought of everything. This is the cleanest place that I’ve ever stayed, bright and very comfortable. The grounds are incredible and the pool/lounging area was perfect. We rented a car and parking was available. This allowed us to come and go as we please and visit all the surrounding towns. We took the bus one day (which picked us up right outside the front gates) and goes into Amalfi - making it easy to catch a ferry wherever you choose. A great time- please eat at Serafina and check out Lemon Likes- they are fantastic!

Breathtaking views at a wonderful spot

We loved this stay! The villa was very clean and Paola was extremely accommodating. It had everything we needed. The best part was the views from every spot on the property. It all overlooked the coastline and sea and having the balcony was perfect. The pool was also a great bonus! While the location was a bit challenging to get to Positano and Amalfi from (challenging but we did it! Paola gave us helpful directions and tips- most of this was because in July the coast is packed with people), we honestly didn’t even need to leave if we didn’t want to. The Villa itself was just what we needed. There is a grocery, pharmacy, bar/coffee spot, and a few restaurants all walking distance. The best part of our location was being away from the crowds but still being able to enjoy all that the Amalfi coast has to offer. Paola and her sister were both extremely helpful and available if we needed. The Villa was everything we could have hoped for and was perfect for a relaxing trip. I loved the town of Furore and would absolutely stay there again!

The perfect place for a holiday on the Amalfi coast

This apartment has two nicely furnished large rooms. One, a comfortable bedroom and the second a very well equipped kitchen and living room. Both rooms have a wall mounted TV. It is all very well decorated with beautiful tiled floors and nice touches like hand painted tiles of donkeys in the bathroom and a mural of the local fjord in the kitchen. There is good sized toilet and shower room, plus a balcony that stretches the whole length of both rooms. On the balcony there is a table and 4 chairs plus a couple of deck chairs and two sun beds. It is perfect for catching the sun gazing at the passing boats. Above the apartment there is a communal sun terrace with some comfortable sun beds and parasols. There is also a nice small swimming the pool in the gardens. The owners of Il Ciuccio, Sosore Holiday Homes are very friendly and helpful. So much so that after making our booking on line we exchanged several emails with them in which we gathered a lot of good information about public transport, local shopping and the best restaurants in the area and beyond. On arrival we were met by Paola one of the four sisters who run the complex. She was very warm and extremely helpful to us. After showing us to the apartment shed gave us all the information that we needed for our stay and then after that, she was kind enough to keep in touch with by WhatsApp and to even arrange to have us picked and taken to dinner by some of the nearby restaurants who provide that service for diners.

Splendid Property

We were met by Paulina, one of the owners, outside of the apartment upon arrival. Not enough words to describe our amazing stay. And the owners remained available to us throughout our week long stay. The Amalfi Coast view overlooks the Mediterranean Sea. Gorgeous Italian tiles on the walls and floors with Italian tables inside and out, spacious areas outside of our apartment with fruits and flowers, olive trees, water fountains and a swimming pool. Locked gate to enter the property felt safe. Street traffic is very light and quiet. Off the beaten path in a Heavenly Grace sort of way. Nearby grocer and restaurants and bars within walking distance. The bed and bedroom were comfortable and charming with special charm throughout - the TVs worked - the kitchen and bathroom were stocked with basics and few extras, including wine and water. We will return without a doubt in the future and recommend this property 100%. Note: I almost rented another place for a few euros less per night, but opted to take this one without 100+ stairs in and out of the property, and I'm so thankful for that single choice to Italy. This property will forever remain a large part of our beautiful memory of our 34th anniversary vacation. EVEN FREE PARKING! Thank you, Paulina and family.

Wonderful apartment!

The apartment was absolutely beautiful and spotless. The view was fantastic, and the owners were extremely accommodating as far as any questions we had. They always responded in a timely manner. The only thing I would suggest, which we didn't do, is to rent a car if you're staying in this location so that you won't be at the mercy of the bus schedule. Aside from that, you couldn't find a more beautiful place to stay on the Amalfi Coast.

Wish we had stayed longer. . . .

We couldn't have been more pleased with our stay. The apartment is just as its shown online - it is well-equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Paola and her sister greeted us with a warm welcome and made us feel like we were guests in her own home. She showed us around the apartment and grounds to make sure we knew where everything was and also gave us a list of local restaurants, ferry schedules and excursion recommendations. There is a relaxing pool next to a beautiful garden with basil, rosemary and lemons that we could help ourselves to. The apartment was very clean and well-equipped. The shower had incredible water pressure (for my standards - I'm from California) and the A/C was very quiet. It's located in a quiet neighborhood with a beautiful view - this is a wonderful place to relax. Our only complaint is that we didn't stay longer. There will definitely be a next time!

Great place in Amalfi Coast

Paola and her sisters have a gem of a property. My family (wife and two teenage daughters) had plenty of room. The place was spotless and looked brand new. In fact, it was even better than the pictures. Three decks and a pool included. Highly recommend this place. Checkin with Paola was easy and she constantly communicated with us from the point of reservation onward.

Il Ciuccio - Le Contrade, Furore

Le Contrade in Furore is the perfect place to stay if you enjoy the quiet with amazing views. We can’t say enough about the accommodations and the kindness shown by our hosts Sosore Holiday Homes. The four sisters hosting us provided everything needed and more, with lovely welcoming surprises, great recommendations and tour planning. Our place was spacious with a beautiful terrace, outdoor eating area, huge sea view patio and pool. The entire area was beautifully manicured with flowers, herbs, lemon trees etc. So relaxing! We would highly recommend and hope one day to return. A big thanks to Paola, Michelle, Adele and Ilaria for making our trip so memorable!

Heaven on Earth!

This place and their owners are just amazing! Great location to visit both Positano, Amalfi and the Sentiero Degli Dei. Unfortunately for us the weather wasn’t warm enough to spend time in the new wonderful pool with fountain. Would have been amazing to look at the sea in the evening with glasses of the great wine from Maria Cuomo vineyard (nearby and part of the family). We feel like at home and part of this family. This is definitively our new home on the Amalfi coast.

Amazing view and venue. We will be back!

I highly recommend this delightful venue. First of all, it is situated in Furore, which is a very small town about 30 minutes (10 miles) drive north of the town of Amalfi. It has a beautiful view of the coast. Furore is very small, but it has a market and a shop where you can buy rolls and coffee for breakfast. Also, there is a wonderful restaurant about five minutes drive away, which is run by the extended family that runs this venue. The apartment was adequately sized, with separate bedroom, living room, and bathroom. It was spotless. Both the bedroom and the living room have a private balcony with a great view of the coast. The facility also has a garden and we were treated with freshly picked tomatoes and lemons. The venue is run by four sisters, and they take great pride in the establishment. They greeted us and were available at all times. We had a number of questions about logistics and they answered each of them, and were very helpful. On the advice of the proprietors, we rented a car. That was a good idea. It is about a 30 minute drive to Amalfi and a 30 minute drive to Positano. We basically drove the entire length of the Amalfi coast, down to the temple at Paestum, and had a wonderful time. The sisters also explained to us that they are part of a huge extended family which has a very large presence in the Furore area. Upon the recommendation, we went to Bacco, a restaurant owned by other family members. It was terrific. In fact, even though we only stayed four days, we went there twice. It was that good. In short, we were very pleased and highly recommend this apartment.

Absolutely flawless. The apartment was beautiful with a great view. Paula was so helpful and great!

Furore is a 25 minute ride to Amalfi on the scenic Amalfi coast road. We wanted an experience away from the crowds and Furore definitely gave us that. The apartment was just fantastic. It was super clean and well kept.... very private and quiet. It had every comfort you would need. The view was breathtaking. Also Paola was so helpful and friendly. She offered to make us dinner reservations and was always available for any need we had. We just cannot imagine a better overall experience than the one we had. We will definitely stay there again and will highly recommend it to all.

What a lovely place and location. Paola and Adele were so helpful.

From the moment we made our reservation, the owners assisted us with travel plans, day trips and transportation. We were delighted to receive transportation from nearby restaurants for dinner thanks to Paola. Cooked at home couple times and had fresh herbs and tomatoes at our door. Owner always quick to respond to inquiries. House just delightful. You do have to go through Amalfi for ferry as there is not a pier at a Furore. Furore close to Agerola if walking the Path of Gods from Agerola to Positano. Amalfi center for transportation exchanges. Would recommend most definitely.

The apartment of our dreams -- simply perfect!!

A family with two children, we couldn't have been happier in this beautiful and impeccably decorated apartment in Furore!! The view from the private balcony was breathtaking, and we really enjoyed eating breakfast there in the morning sunshine! The bed and the pull-out couch were very comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped (it even had an electric kettle -- a rarity outside the UK!). Above all, our hostesses were absolutely fabulous: Adele responded to all of our questions and sent us useful links before our stay, and Paola (whose English is excellent) absolutely doted upon us during our stay, answering all of our questions about the area, and even leaving us little gifts such as fresh lemons from her mother's garden! We also found the location of this apartment to be ideal for visiting the Amalfi Coast, since it's centrally located between Amalfi and Positano. If we could give this apartment more than 5 stars, we would, as it's simply the nicest apartment we've ever stayed at, with hostesses who really go above and beyond to make your visit perfect! We hope to return to stay at Il Ciuccio again one day! Thank you so much Paola, Adele, Michela and Ilaria! All the very best, Gienia, Ian, Isabelle and Emily
