“It was positive overall.”
The villa is set in a stunning location with sea views and a beatufully kept olive grove/orchard. However, it was difficult to commute on foot and by public transport due its location in the old town which is situated on a steep hill and the fact that the bus service was limited. However, if you are visiting with your own transport, I should think you will be very happy to have a safe parking space within the villa premises and the freedom to visit other destinations on the Cilento coast. If you are travelly by public transport though, I would highly recommend to visit during the high season as the bus service is extended tiil around 6pm. However, Irene was very generous to offer me a lift to and from the train station or beach when I needed it. The other members of staff, Nicky and Gabriele were also very friendly and helpful.

A quiet place with a stunning view from the mountainside. Our sea-view room was very cozy and full of Italian charm. Irene’s hospitality deserves an extra five points. Thank you for such a warm southern welcome!

“This was our best experience of our 9 week tour of Italy”
We rented the deluxe single bedroom apartment and stayed 6 days. Great in every way. The private balcony made in even better. It provided sun and shade throughout the day with a great sea view and also a hillside vista. A private BBQ gave us additional cooking options. The town of Ascea was warm and welcoming to us even though we spoke no Italian. Everything you require is here. What is not here are tourists so one gets a true Italian village experience.

“Great find and excellent value for money”
Beautiful views, lovely apartment with everything you could need. Spotless throughout. The pool / jacuzzi was great with the same amazing views. The drive up to the apartment was a bit hairy but worth it for the views. We were made to feel very welcome and would definitely visit again

“Overall really great! Definitely booking again if we ever come to this part of italy.”
Perfect and helpful staff! Amazing place. Beach reachable via car or a short hike (going back up is a challenge, though), and they offer a shuttle. A small but sufficient pool with a relax zone and a bar (with very reasonable prices). The nearby beaches are beautiful, free, not at all crowded, and very clean!
