Villa Scarpariello Relais is a romantic waterfront villa set into the rocks that tumbles down from the Amalfi Coast road to the sea below.
This stunning property features views to fie for, a private access to the sea and a sea watered swimming pool.
It is situated in the coastal part of Ravello and at less than one mile from Amalfi.
The presence of the twelfth-century Tower, antique artifacts, marble statues and of the tasteful decorated interiors, testify the history of this charming place.
Among the many, it has hosted the last sovereigns of Italy, Vittorio Emanuele III and Queen Elena, and guests such as Jacqueline Kennedy.
It's a festival of colours with flowers and plants, the sky above and the sea that is just a few meters away.
Stepping in the relais, one dips in an ocean of peace and beauty.
Amalfi is a stroll away and from there ferries and hydrofoils connect it efficiently with Positano, Sorrento, Capri and Naples.
Buses are cheap and easy to use with a stop situated at the gates of the villa.
If one decides to rent a car, a large free parking is available on site.
The villa is rented exclusively for at least six nights from June to September and four/five nights in April, May and October. It's closed during the winter.
Rates include parking, air conditioning/heating, mid week-cleaning and the final one, usage of the pool (open weather permitting) and of the platform over the sea (both shared with the other guests of the villa) linens and towels, taxes, electricity and concierge service 24h are included in the price. Paying an extra charge, it’s possible to have contiental or American breakfast and extra cleanings.

Villa Scarpariello is heaven on earth. From the sweeping views of the Mediterranean, to the evening breezes lulling you to sleep through open windows, all your cares are whisked away.
October turned out to be the perfect time to visit this amazing property. We were greeted at the door by Dominic, our on-site host. He graciously showed us to our rooms. The steps wound down to the double room, and then down and down again past the outdoor breakfast veranda, through lush gardens, to the apartment Regina.
Apartment Regina boasts views of the Mediterranean from two huge bedroom windows, and through double doors in the living/dining area that lead to the balcony. There was also a small kitchen with a veritable smorgasbord awaiting us after our 24 hours of traveling! Our reservations manager, Emiliano, had arranged a meal of homemade sundried tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, just-baked bread, marinated mushrooms, prosciutto, and 3 little slices of cake. We ate like kings! And then we slept like babies.
Villa Scarpariello really is a great place from which to embark on daily adventures and truly take in the Amalfi Coast. After a lovely breakfast of fresh breads, yogurt, fruit, coffee and juices, we went down to the local town (Minori). It was Sunday and there just happened to be a wedding at the local basilica. Beautiful!
Another day, we took a drive down to Amalfi to catch the ferry over to Capri. There’s nothing like a boat ride with the sea air blowing through your hair! The island was beautiful, and the shopping divine. We took a long lunch and then the ferry back home. We had plenty of time to visit Positano and lie on the beach, hike to the top of the crater at Mount Vesuvius and take in Herculaneum and Pompeii, explore the extensive gardens of Villa Cimbrone, and we even spent a day in Rome on the way home.
If you’re more the stay-at-home type, you really could spend all your time at the Villa and in its gardens. There are tons of little nooks where you can read and relax, a beautiful salt-water pool and tanning deck, and even a place to jump into the sea!
Pier Paulo, Dominic, and Emiliano really made our stay memorable and comfortable by recommending all the best restaurants, shops, and little hidden gems.
Planning a trip to the Amalfi Coast? Make Villa Scarpariello your home base!

I recently brought 30 guests to Italy to celebrate my Birthday. We rented the entire Villa, which is simply Wonderful!! The rooms, the staff (Paulo, Domenico, Rafaelina, Marina), the location and the atmosphere were just perfection. It took me a year of working with Emiliano (Who is also wonderful) to produce the perfect experience for my family and friends. I highly suggest that if you are planning a trip to paradise, run don't walk to the Villa Scarpariello, you will not be sorry. Grazie, Grazie, Grazie! Stayed September 2012, traveled with friendsRecommended for: Girls getaway, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with young children.

We had an absolutely wonderful time at Villa Scarpariello Relais. The views were breathtaking, the sea water pool was great and the staff were charming. We stayed in the Luigi apartment. We would defiantly go back and recommend it to others. The only time I was disappointed was after eating at Villa San Michele. There were no prices and they did not tell us that no matter what we ate, the price would be 26 Euro per person. A small caprse salad and penne with tomato sauce for 4 people should not cost 104 Euro in any Italian Restaurant. I'm not saying to not eat there, 26 Euro is a decent price for a full Italian meal. A full Italian meal includes an anti-pasta, 1st course (pasta), 2nd course (meat and potato), fruit and a cafe; not just an anti-pasta and a 1st course. Other than that, I would recommend staying here to anyone.Recommended for: Pet owners, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

Dear Emiliano, Thank you so much for being a part of our amazing wedding. You have been so kind and thoughtful in helping me and my mother Maureen plan so much of the big week! The dinner at Torre Normanna was simply beautiful and we couldn’t have found it without you. Thank you. We will never forget your kindness and generosity of time and support as we planned the wedding from afar. Your gift was such a nice gesture and we are so fortunate to think of you each time we think about the wedding. Duncan and I look forward to seeing you again when we are next in Ravello. Until then, take care. With love and thanks, Mr. and Mrs. LoganDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

Hello Emiliano, What a wonderful pleasant surprise to hear from you! We think of our stay at the Villa in Amalfi our favorite part of our whole trip and look forward to making the trip again soon! I am very happy it did not rain there when we were there, because we always get too much rain in Seattle. Of course I will be very happy to send you some pictures, I will download some a little later and send them to you. Can you tell me......how Dominic is doing? I think of him quite often and if you could pass on to him that I still have his North Vancouver address in my wallet and am still planning on going by to take a picture for him. Thank you for your email Emiliano, and I willl send some pictures! Take care, EllenDid you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

My fiance and I had a wonderful stay at Villa Scarpariello during the 1st week of September 2010. We traveled the Almalfi Coast in search of a place to get married next summer (sort of a prehoneymoon!). We stayed in Positano, Amalfi, and Nerano and we decided that Villa Scarpariello and the Ravello area would be the best place to gather our family and friends for our special ceremony. We wanted to stay at a place where our guests would get an authentic Italian experience, while staying at a high quality bed & breakfast atmosphere at a reasonable price, with excellent access to the sea (multiple individual levels for sunbathing) and wonderful hospitality, all while being centrally located to the best of the Amalfi Coast. First of all, the pictures on the website are amazing, but you really have to see it in person! The view of Villa Scarpariello and the Bay of Salerno from "View of Infinity" at Villa Cimbrone in Ravello is especially stunning. The surrounding area has so much to offer: from the quaint restaurants with excellent food in Atrani to the grand luxury and history of Ravello. We thoroughly loved the hospitality that Piero and Dominic showed us: Piero ensured our late luggage arrived quickly with no problems and arranged a wonderful lunch at the Villa San Michele and we loved the late evening chats with Dominic about life, love, and wonderful food! We can't wait to come back next summer for our wedding!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2002
About the owner: The secret of the happiness in every work is the passion. Discovering a place through the eyes, tips and secrets of an insider is the way to get the closer possible to the essence of it. I love the Amalfi Coast and the Campania.. all I want is to share with other interested people the magic of these areas.
Why the Owner Chose Amalfi:
Many places in some other areas are just beautiful, this villa has a particular charm and it's in a unique position.
The Unique Benefits at this Villa:
We're located in the coastal part (oceanfront) of Ravello and its center is five kilometres far from us, situated three hundred and fifty meters above the sea. Amalfi is one kilometre and a half away.
At only nine hundred metres far from Villa Scarpariello Relais, there is Atrani, a small fishermen – away from the crowd village, with some nice restaurants where you can taste the freshest products of the coast. Within walking distance, at only five hundred meters, there is the Hotel Villa San Michele with its family run restaurant.
The Campania region is particularly rich in history and culture and the tailor made excursions that I personally arrange are a good chance to explore it in the best way.
To not be missed are Ravello, where the very famous chamber music festival takes place and Positano with its characteristic small roads and steps. These two villages, together with Amalfi, are the most famous localities of my area.
