About this property

Villa Volare: A splendid villa with the fascination of the typical and ancient mediterranean houses, with Free WI-FI.

Villa Volare is a splendid villa with the fascination of the typical and ancient mediterranean houses. It sleeps eight people. From Villa Volare you will enjoy a thrilling view of the sea and of the coastline. Villa Volare is 160 square meters (1720 square feet). It features a private swimming pool, two wide private terraces with a view of the sea, a private garden, air conditioning (please read description below to check in which rooms the units are installed) and WI-FI Internet access.
You will be in a pedestrian precinct, in the seventeenth-century historic center of Praiano, where you will find restaurants and shops. You will find the stop for the Flavio Gioia bus Positano - Praiano line at 120 meters (390 feet) and the closest beach (Marina di Praia Beach) at roughly 1 km (0.6 miles). You will reach Villa Volare from the street level going up a 150-meters (490-feet) public walkway that includes approximately 62 stairway steps.
You will not need a car to stay at Villa Volare. If you do have one, you will be able to park it at approximately 200 meters (220 yards), for a fee, in a public parking lot (being the lot a public one, parking spaces can not be reserved). If necessary, you can park free of charge along the public roads (the actual distance might vary depending on the availability of parking spaces).

Villa Volare is part of the historical center of Praiano, which consists of a cluster of white houses on the highest area of a steep slope of a hill overlooking the sea. The houses are nestled around the beautiful bell-tower and the eighteenth-century church of San Luca.


In this area of Praiano, almost all the houses date back to the eighteenth century. They feature white façades often decorated with stuccoes, patios below masonry arches sustaining terraces facing the sea, and sloping gardens filled with flowers and citrus trees around. To walk through such extraordinary village, declared World Heritage site by UNESCO, means climbing narrow stairways and pedestrian streets.


The whole area is made for pedestrians, except for the only access street to the main square. Here you will not find streets packed with tourists; all you will see are the kind inhabitants of the place. And you will be able to experience the fascination and authentic beauty of the Amalfi Coast: one not changed by the actions of tourism!


Villa Volare lies in a secluded position, having been built chiefly on a rocky steep slope. Once you have crossed the entrance gate, a beautiful white staircase - flanked with pots full of flowers - will lead you up on a terrace which is the access to both the house and a second larger terrace (through an external flight of steps) where you will find the swimming pool and the garden.


Villa Volare will enchant you for sure! You'll face only the blue of the sky and the sea, while both sides show the green coastal outline spotted with the typical white houses in Praiano.


The clean and lemon-scented air, the vivid colors under the Mediterranean sun, and the harmony and beauty surrounding you will make you happy for being alive and enjoying your vacation in such a great place…

Gorgeous views and very spacious and value for money
The property was spacious with many areas to relax. Amazing rooftop views and pool and places to sun bake. Kitchen was well equipped and all 3 rooms had separate ensuites. Very happy with the space we had for 3 couples. We did have a leak in the middle of the night which was quickly resolved in the morning and the property manager was apologetic and happy to resolve. I would definitely come back again.

Our group of 4 adults loved staying at Villa Volare
Our group of 4 adults loved staying at Villa Volare! The location was excellent in a nice, quiet village and the VIEWS were phenomenal! We so enjoyed spending time on the terraces relaxing, eating meals, and just taking in the fabulous area. The little grocery was a short walk away and there were many restaurants within a short distance. Would highly recommend! Excellent service from Summer In Italy, very communicative, and enjoyed the newsletter with tips and advice. Also appreciated their recommendations for transfers and private chef. Would definitely use again!

What a great place to stay
What a great place to stay. I can't think of a single thing that I would change about the house. Everything was exactly as pictured in the listing. Kitchen was well-equipped. Pool was great, view was great... Everything was fabulous. The owner met us and directed us to the house... Very responsive. He had clearly thought about what guests would want. I found Summer In Italy to be responsive and the whole process was straightforward. No surprises.
