Enjoying an elevated position within the cliff-top village of Praiano, Villa Vangelo boasts panoramic sea views along a delightful stretch of the Amalfi Coast. 

Beautiful ornaments, patterned Vietri majolica tiles, traditional features and splashes of colour give this villa bags of character and a homely feel. The open-plan kitchen/dining and living area with tiled breakfast bar and fireplace is a great communal area for the whole family to unwind. This space is colourful and bright, combining terracotta tones and mosaic displays with plenty of natural light and white walls. Throughout the entire villa, including its two queen-sized bedrooms, typical local touches meet with modern amenities to create a comfortable and beautiful home. 

The standout feature of this villa is without a doubt its vast terrace area offering outstanding views of the rugged coastline and dazzling blue ocean as far as the eye can see. Accessed via a few steps leading down from the house, the stunning terrace features an inviting pool and sun deck with loungers, umbrellas and armchairs. Roman busts add some grandeur while the grassy lawn, vibrant plants and flowers add some greenery and fill the air with heavenly scents. The outdoor kitchen, table and chairs make dining al-fresco easy. What better way is there to enjoy a long meal in the balmy evening air under the shaded pergola as you watch the sun set over the bay?

Set off along the twisting streets from the villa and venture further into Praiano to discover the village’s boutiques, cafes and restaurants. Praiano’s charming beach is just a ten-minute drive from Villa Vangelo. Spend your day relaxing at this pretty cove sheltered by towering cliff faces and lined with multi-coloured fishing boats. There are a handful of trattorias and beach bars nearby and those feeling adventurous can even try out windsurfing. 

Hugging the cliffs just twenty minutes away is the enchanting village of Positano, with its picture-perfect buildings, luxurious boutiques and smart restaurants. Other nearby villages worth visiting are Amalfi, Atrani and Ravello with its beautiful gardens. The glamourous island of Capri can be visited by taking a short ferry trip either from Positano or the historic town of Sorrento, which is less than an hour away from Villa Vangelo. 

Those interested in history will also relish the opportunity to visit Mount Vesuvius as well as the fascinating ruins of Pompeii.
