Fancy some panoramas? The views from this villa are absolutely spectacular – you can see the glistening Gulf of Salerno, the island of Capri, and even Vesuvius – and a myriad of terraces make them easy to admire. One of the best spots to soak up the scenery is the private swimming pool, but even inside, many bedrooms offer their own vistas. Plenty have kitchenettes and en-suite bathrooms, too – perfect for those wanting a bit more privacy. Location-wise, you'll be near picturesque Massa Lubrense and charming Sorrento. A car is necessary here, as you'll want one to reach all the hotspots up and down the Amalfi Coast.
