Villas on the Amalfi Coast

Find Your Extraordinary

Amalfi Coast Villa Holiday

Stretching along the southwestern shores of Italy, the Amalfi Coast is one of the country’s most captivating regions, defined by dramatic cliffs, terraced hillsides and glittering sea views. Historic towns such as Amalfi and Ravello sit above the coastline, while the wider area opens the door to exploring Sorrento and the nearby islands of Capri and Ischia.

Our collection of villas with pools in Italy offers an effortless way to experience the Amalfi Coast at its best. Ideal for relaxed, family-friendly escapes, these handpicked villas are chosen by our destination experts for their character, setting and proximity to beaches, villages and excellent restaurants. Whether perched above the sea or tucked into the lush interior, each villa offers a private base in one of Italy’s most celebrated landscapes.

Why stay with us?

Style and character are everything at Oliver’s Travels, and our handpicked villas on the Amalfi Coast reflect that beautifully. Selected by destination experts who know the region inside out, each home is chosen for its individuality as much as its location.

Once you’ve booked, our Concierge Service is on hand to help with the finer details – from pre-arrival shopping and private chefs to housekeeping and tailored local experiences – so your Amalfi Coast stay feels effortlessly special.

Why visit the Amalfi Coast?

If you want sunshine, out of this world food, and plenty of ancient history to explore, it doesn’t get much better than the Amalfi coast. It was the playground of Rome’s emperors for centuries, so if it’s good enough for Caesar, it’s good enough for us! And with such a glorious collection of luxury villas, you won’t be disappointed.

The landscape is typically southern Italian, with green hills and steep, rocky cliffs that tumble down towards the sea. Dotted throughout the landscape you’ll find tiny towns and villages that have remained unchanged for centuries.

If you’re a hopeless romantic, a history lover with a penchant for ruins, or a family looking for a beach to laze on, our villas in the Amalfi Coast won’t disappoint.

Food and drink on the Amalfi Coast

Kick off the day with coffee and the local sfogliatella, a delicious sweet pastry you’ll fall in love with at the first bite.

If you want to eat like a local, make lunch your main meal of the day, and seeing as you’re just a short distance from Naples, the birthplace of pizza, we’ve got a good idea what you should go for!

In this part of Italy the locals still believe in eating seasonally, so all year round you’ll see variations on the local menus, from fresh asparagus in the spring through to black truffles and chestnuts in the autumn. Wash everything down with the favourite local tipple, limoncello, probably the best palette cleanser in the world!

Best time to visit

Our advice: Peak holiday times are between July and August, meaning things can get crowded. To beat the crush, head here during the shoulder seasons of April through to June, and throughout September and October.

Weather: Expect average temperatures of around 20-26°C from April to June, and the mid to high 20s in September and October. July is the driest month.

A combination of the warm welcome you’ll get everywhere, wonderful food and drink, and those gorgeous beaches all come together to make you feel like a local.

Getting there & around

By plane

Flights are regular, with over 100 flights from airports across the UK every week to Naples. The flight time is around two and a half hours from the UK.

By car

Expect plenty of winding roads and traffic if you’re planning to rent a car on the Amalfi Coast. There is also a lack of parking so public transport may be a better option.

By bus

Although buses are frequent, they can often get caught in traffic. You’ll need to buy tickets in advance from the majority of bars or tabacconists. Be aware, buses don’t run at night so taxis are your best option.

By train

Italian trains are fast, clean, incredibly cheap, and very reliable. The two main train stations on the Amalfi coast are Salerno, which connects directly to Eurostar as well as the main Italian network, and Sorrento.

The Sorrento line connects to Naples and the ruins at Pompeii and is an excellent way of getting around to see some of the region’s essential tourist spots. You also get the benefit of a fantastic coastal view along the way.
