Description of the Sorrento vacation villa rental
Villa Miragalli is located where the enchanting Amalfi coast begins on the Belvedere hill of Colli di Fontanelle in one the most beautiful place of Sorentine Peninsula.
Here all relate with the Sirens. The Sirenuse islands in front of the house, the sea which, in the luminous calm of Summer reveals its beauty. The boundaries of water and sky barely defined with their pearly sparkle and traces of blue on the gentle currents.
This is the view from the balcony and the large garden of Villa Miragalli.
A path winds down to Saint Elia village dipping into a verdant valley full of Mediterranean oaks, brooms, carobs and wild olives, home to the fox and peregrine falcon. Only a lonely rock is left of the splendid arch, mentioned by Norman Douglas in his book "The Siren Land".
In this wonderful Villa you will find a nice kitchen fully equipped with the last comforts, linked to a dining area furnished with a nice large table in lava stone and a bench built in a stone wall, from here you can exit on a garden trough a wide window that face the breathtaking panorama of the Li Galli islands and the Positano and Amalfi coast.
Flowers, plants threes and stones makes the garden magic, creating the perfect spot were you can relax your self on a beautiful hammock or sitting on a comfortable sofa under a beautiful gazebo, you can also enjoy the fantastic barbeque (BBQ) built in rock stones. Back to the house, you can enter the living area from the main entrance, there is a nice sofa were you can sit and enjoy the heat of a beautiful fireplace or, if you can, play the piano! From here you have access to the kitchen and the two bedrooms.
One of those is the master bedroom with a bigger restroom a queen-size bed and a balcony facing the amazing sea view, the other room have the same size, with two confortable beds as well, in the living there is a wide a comfortable sofa-bed for 2 people, next door to the bedroom there is a toilet and shower. There is also another toilet with W.C. and wash-hand basin, anyway you'll be able to fit in the house maximum 6 person (4+2 pax).
The Villa is perfect gated and there is plenty of space to park two cars, fully furnished with A/C, central heating, satellite TV 's with DVD/VCR and a PS2, cordless phone, alarm and free WI-FI Internet connection.
The house it self it 's 149 square meters (1600 square feet) with a garden of 1500 square meters (16095 square feet).
This place is so much more than you can see or imagine! Anyone wanting to experience the Amalfi coast like the locals do it, should come and stay here.
The villa was very clean and much more spacious than we had anticipated. I am a tough critic who usually stays at the Westin when traveling with family in the U.S., and enjoyed this villa to the fullest. Evening dinners on the grand terrace, candlelight, wine, cheese from the local merchants, grilled beef on the charcoal... The views from the villa cannot be described, as the rest of the Coast.
The beds were very comfortable, and the availability of a washing machine and dishwasher on the premises were very much appreciated. The owner, Bruno, could not been more accommodating. He is an excellent resource and a great gentleman.
For good wines, go into Sorrento, as several shops have an excellent selection of brunellos, super tuscans, and other regional favorites. The mozzarella is the best in the world; don't miss it.
And please, don't make the same mistake as I did: driving into Naples! Take the boat directly from Sorrento, and add 5 years to your life.
Please feel free to email me with any questions.
