The Villa Rossa is a perfect retreat from the busy Amalfi Coast roads. The views really are breathtaking, but the drive to get there can be challenging for unexperienced drivers. Rent a smaller 4x4 car if you can, that will help facilitate getting to the house. From the main road, it’s a 2km drive up a precarious gravel/ asphalt path. Then once the car is parked, it’s another 300 m walk to the house. We wouldn’t recommend this house if you’re not in good physical shape, or have young children. If you want to walk down to the beach from the house, there is a walking path that will take you there, which is about a 15 minute walk. It’s a mix of steps and pathway and not very difficult. The hot-tub was a welcome relief after a long day of sightseeing.
If you do any cooking, keep food in the fridge and clean up, or else you will have small ants come visit the kitchen. The house doesn’t have A/C, but our host did provide us oscillating fans, which helped. Thank you Giuseppe for a memorable, lovely stay!
