About this property
Welcome to the enchanting Villa I Faraglioni – a true oasis nestled in the heart of Capri, an island off the coast of Italy belonging to the famed Amalfi Coast. This exquisite holiday destination promises an unforgettable retreat that combines elegant living with the rustic charm of the Mediterranean landscape.
Perched atop a hill, Villa I Faraglioni boasts panoramic views that stretch across olive groves and the iconic terracotta rooftops of nearby villages. The villa's prime location ensures that you're immersed in the captivating beauty and tranquillity of the island while still being conveniently close to cultural and gastronomic delights.
The villa's traditional stone façade and terracotta floors are harmoniously blended with modern comforts. With spacious living areas adorned with classic Italian furnishings, you'll find the perfect balance between cosy relaxation and refined style. The dining room is flooded with light, making family breakfasts an excellent way to wake up and prepare for the day. In addition, each of the five double bedrooms is elegantly furnished in white and blue shades, with tiles underfoot to keep cool in hot-weather months.
As you step outside, a lush garden embraces the villa, inviting you to bask in the Mediterranean sun. You can unwind in the private pool while soaking in the breathtaking vistas of rolling hills blanketed in vineyards.
Villa I Faraglioni's strategic location is a gateway to an array of experiences for those who wish to explore. Discover the nearby cuisine at family-run trattorias, and lose yourself in the cobblestone streets filled with artisanal shops and charming cafés.
Whether you want to savour Italy’s world-class cuisine, traverse incredible natural landscapes, or unwind on sweeping sandy beaches, Villa I Faraglioni caters to your desires. It's a destination where the past and present intertwine, offering an idyllic escape that captures the essence of Capri’s jet-setting allure.
Nestled on the sun-kissed island of Capri in the heart of its main port town, the exquisite Villa Piazzetta beckons you to a holiday experience that seamlessly blends luxury with the allure of the Mediterranean landscape.
Marina Grande is just a short walk away, and plenty of restaurants, boutiques, bars, shops and supermarkets are here. What used to be an ancient fishing port is now a bustling port with regular ferries and boats, and it’s a pleasant place for a stroll. In the town, kick back in the sand on Spiaggia Marina Grande or venture further to discover the nearby aristocratic residences, many of which were occupied by artists in the 18th century. Villa San Michele is full of ancient art, made famous by a book written by its former owner, Dr Axel Munthe. Other landmarks include a ruined castle, Castello Barbarossa, Museo Casa Rossa, and Scala Fenicia – a steep, lengthy staircase leading from the marina to the mountain's peak, with scenic views of the island and sea.
From the villa's location, the azure sea and rugged cliffs are easily accessible, offering opportunities for boat trips to uncover hidden coves and grottos. Notably, the Blue Grotto is the most renowned one, while Grotta Bianca and Grotta Rossa are also worth a visit. The nearby Arco Naturale is an alluring coastal path with an enormous arch and viewpoints at different heights from which you can admire the beautiful landscape. If you can’t get enough of the views, ride the chairlift to Monte Solaro for panoramic views. Forte Orrico – the fort that Napoleon's army first took in their conquest of Capri – is also worth the hike, with sweeping views of cliffs and boats cruising on the azure sea.
