Villa Moriscos is a dream accommodation, located in a romantic villa built on a peak on the rocky coast, between the road and the sea , at about 1 km from Minori ,a picturesque and lovely town with a curved, sandy beach and an excellent selection of seafood restaurants. In the summer there are also boat connections for pleasant days out to Amalfi, Positano, Capri, etc. The villa is an attractive, old building with Moorish façade, which is commonly found on the Amalfitan Coast due to the frequent invasions of the Saracen during the 14th century.
