Côte amalfitaine - Il Monaco avec descente privée à la mer. AVRIL MAI 15%OFF

This house, the location and Giovanni are all amazing. We cannot wait to come back to your beautiful home.

View was outstanding! A few minor glitches like no sheets on one of the beds, no umbrella on the sea pad but Mr Giovanni was amazing to get us what we needed pronto.

Easy access to small town of Minori and lots of ways to travel like water taxis, bus, etc.

Was the perfect ending to a whirl wind Italy tour.

Would book this house every time! You always have reservations and doubts when you choose a home in a foreign land, sight unseen. But, don't hesitate to book this house. It has everything you need, the views are spectacular and the access to the semi-private swim/sunbathing pad right on the water is unbeatable. However, there are some tips that I hope others will find helpful.

It is no joke that the front door is literally on the main street.You have to look left and right before stepping out of the front door. The frescoed bedroom in the photos, though very pretty and comfortable, is immediately to the right of the front door, so you will hear cars, motorcycles, buses all night long. We used the sleep fan app on our ipads to create enough white noise to allow us to sleep just fine.

You may be told that there are around 70 stairs to get down the path to the water. We counted more like 190. If you have orthopedic issues, or aren't in decent fitness, this will be a difficult climb. That being said, the platform is a beautiful spot and rare on the coast from what we observed.

The coffee makers are not what we are used to in the US! Do not expect to find an electric coffee maker. There are 2 espresso makers for making coffee on the stove. Google Moka Espresso for directions.

Although the address of Il Monaco is in Ravello, Minori is the closest town - about 3/4 mile walk (turn right out of the house). Others have noted that you are walking on the narrow, main road with no sidewalk. Just stay close to the side of the road and you'll be fine. Bring a couple of flashlights for walks at night so cars can see you. Minori is a great little town with plenty of restaurants, cafe's, shops and little grocery stores and produce shops.We carried backpacks into town a few times and loaded them up with waters, breakfast food, fruit, coffee and snacks.

The town of Ravello is worth visiting, but very difficult to get to if you don't have a car. It is at the top of the mountain above the house. There is a path up that we walked of about 1,500 stairs. We also tried the bus which took almost 1 hour with a transfer in Amalfi. Taxi will cost 60 euro!

Take the ferries everywhere from Minori (including Capri). They are fun, convenient and inexpensive. You don't need a car here (good luck parking) if you are willing to walk. If walking is a problem, I wouldn't advise the Amalfi Coast anyway - there are stairs everywhere you go

The property was just lovely exactly as described and Anna was fantastic to deal with. Giovanni our host was truly amazing and so helpful he made our stay very special. The only suggestion I could make was we would have liked an awning or some sort of patio cover outside to use during the day as there is not a lot of shady spots on the property and it’s was hot! Overall a superb property we loved it.

This incredible property exceeded our expectations and we did not want to leave. The walk down to the water was beautiful and well worth the steps. Anna’s guidance with the booking was perfect and Giovanni was so warm and helpful! Thank you!! Grazie!!
