"If you haven't been to the Amalfi Coast before, there's a reason it is all over your Instagram feed every summer. One of the most recognizable and beautiful coastlines in the world, this winding stretch of Italy truly encapsulates la dolce vita. On a recent trip with friends, I was on the hunt for a vacation rental that was as much of a destination as the area itself."
"Rolling up the hill to this six-bedroom villa felt like we were stuck in a movie (perhaps Under the Tuscan Sun, or the Italian stretch of Normal People). Each of the six rooms was generously sized and came with its own en suite bathroom, as well as large windows, blackout shades, comfortable mattresses and linens, and places to store and hang our clothes."
"But it wasn't the interiors that originally caught our eye while booking-it was the view. Perched almost on top of a hill and overlooking the village of Sant'Agata sui Due Golfi, about a 25-minute drive from Sorrento, the view from Villa Orologio felt all-encompassing, from the village to the nearby mountains to the Gulf of Naples in the distance. We spent most of our time on the property enjoying breakfast, dinner, and each other's company, seated around the large table under the awning on the terrace."
The Amalfi Coast's winding shoreline embodies la dolce vita and attracts many visitors each summer. Sorrento served as a six-day base for exploring beaches, local sights, and enjoying gelato. The six-bedroom hilltop Villa Orologio overlooks Sant'Agata sui Due Golfi and the Gulf of Naples, offering expansive views of village, mountains, and sea. Each bedroom includes an en suite bathroom, large windows, blackout shades, comfortable linens, and ample storage. A private pool, terrace with awning and large dining table, and lounge chairs supported communal meals and relaxation. White marble interiors create a minimalist backdrop; modern bathrooms and strong air conditioning enhance comfort, and one bedroom functions as an unattached studio ideal for couples or small families.
