There are spectacular sea views from this beautiful villa with steps enticingly leading down to a rocky platform by the sea. Casa Ariel is within walking distance of the gorgeously photogenic Positano on the Amalfi coast, with easy access to the island of Capri and the spectacular port of Amalfi. From Casa Ariel, you will have direct access to the sea and to a public beach, partly gravel and partly rocky-ideal for nature lovers and those seeking a more authentic coastal experience. The beach is reached via a public walkway carved into the rocky cliffside, featuring approximately 260 steps and offering breathtaking views along the way. To reach the villa itself from street level, you'll go down a stairway consisting of about 36 steps.
Terraced levels, so typical of villas along this coast, comfortably accommodate up to 10 guests. Each of the five en suite double bedrooms in the air-conditioned main house has access to terraces or small balconies, just perfect for watching the boats bobbing on the blue waters below.
Watch the colours of the sea and sky change as you dine together beneath the wisteria covered pergola on the upper terrace next to the spacious living and dining area. Casa Ariel features an inviting outdoor tub measuring 1.70 x 2.50 meters, perfect for a refreshing dip. Adjacent to the tub, you'll find an outdoor shower with hot water for added convenience.
There are two 25-m² terraces, the first accessed from the first-floor lounge, the second from the garden. Both terraces are partially shaded and furnished with tables, chairs and sun loungers.
Positano is famous for its peach, pink and terracotta buildings, art galleries, boutique shops and excellent restaurants. Its tiny winding roads tumble down to the pretty main beach where you can hire a beach chair in the shade and order a cool glass of wine. In the summer there are daily boat tours to Capri, Amalfi and the Sorrento peninsular as well as to the local bays and grottos. Hire a boat or kayak to visit quieter beaches or stay in the bay with a paddleboard.
- As is typical of the Amalfi coast, this villa features many terraced levels and steps. There are 36 steps from the main road to the villa, then another 260 steps along a public rocky footpath down to the sea.
- If you bring a car, please note that car parking is either on the main road above the house (36 steps away) subject to availabilty, or in Positano public car park (around 2km away) for a fee. Alternatively, there is a bus stop a short walk away.
