Cathy Roberts Oxfordshire, UK - Villa La Pace
We went with my folks and our 2 toddlers, we had the best week ever staying here. The owners were sooo friendly and helpful and we even all got together one evening to eat pizza and drink wine outside while a pizziola man cooked our dinner for us, he comes highly recommended.
The garden is fully enclosed which helps with the little ones but just need to watch them near the pool obviously :)
We rented a car which is a must really if you have a kids and a buggy to lug around.
Can't fault our holiday at all we will definately go again in the future as we loved it so much.
The Hitchens Bradley, North Yorkshire - Villa La Pace
The position and views from the villa were amazing, the pool and outside areas were excellent. The house was very clean and welcoming however it was a little basic for the amount charged. Satellite TV is advertised but there are no British channels. You need to be a confident driver as the roads are steep and windy. When you enter the gate stop as soon as you are inside or you have to back up a steep slope. Overall a great holiday though
Jane Staindrop, County Durham - Villa La Pace
The villa was everything that we hoped it would be; clean, spacious, well equipped and in the most beautiful, quiet, tranquil location. The owners were delightful and brought us several bottles of their delicious wine! They and their agent, Bruno, could not have been more helpful and attentive.
I would suggest that anyone staying here plans their week carefully as travel is very expensive and the villa is quite remote. Once we discovered the inexpensive local bus service to Sant Agnello getting around proved a little easier. Pompei, Vesuvius and Herculaneum are all accessible via this service and then train - very easy. Car hire is probably best for exploring the Amalfi coast and this will cost a lot so make the most of the hire period!
The mini-market at the top of the hill is fantastic as is the pizzeria 'Stelluchia' where the staff are lovely, the food is excellent and good value.
We would certainly make a return visit.
The Surrey gang, Surrey UK - Villa La Pace
We had a lovely 2 weeks in August staying at this villa. The gardens and pool are beautiful and our children (aged 10, 7 and 7) had a great time. They enjoyed picking tomatoes and grapes from the garden. The villa itself is quite basic. The owners were very helpful and gave us lots of advice about day trips, boat trips, etc. The beaches were very busy so we spent lots of time around the pool, a lovely relaxing holiday!
Eric and BonnieAcworth, Georgia, USA - Villa La Pace
We spent a wonderful week at this villa (June 5-12, 2010). The property itself and the views are spectacular. The owners, Michele and Tina, were excellent hosts and made us feel welcome immediately. We are a family of three generations, including three children (ages, 15, 9 and 2) and found this to be comfortable for all. The pool was a favorite of all of us and the gardens were not only beautiful, but provided room for the children to play as well. Dinner at their new table under the gazebo was a perfect end to the day. We had arranged through the rental agency to hire a pizzaiolo to come one evening and we were delighted when this turned out to be Michele and Tina who produced wonderful pizzas for us in the villas outdoor pizza oven. It was the highlight of our stay! Especially the Nutella dessert pizza! Our hosts were most generous. Although no vegetables were ready at the time of our visit, they shared ripe cherries and lemons from their trees with us. A car is a must if you stay here but you will not regret choosing this villa. We would love to return.
