As soon as you enter the house you will be attracted by the panorama that will be in front of you. Even if you are inside the living room, looking through the glass door you will see only sea and sky. Leaning out, you will discover that you will have a 180-degree view of one of the most beautiful tracts of the Amalfi Coast for the length of your stay. In front of you there will be breathtaking view in its entirety: below you will see a stripe of white house of Praiano, each one surrounded by the green of its own garden, which is roughly interrupted by the blue sea.

The Torre di Grado watchtower and the majolica dome of the Church of Saint Gennaro stand among the houses. On your right, your sight will embrace a wide view of the coast which surrounds the characteristic village of Positano, and will reach Punta Campanella and the island of Capri. The famous Faraglioni of Capri can be seen at the horizon, and, closer, you can admire the small islands of Li Galli.

From Casa Placida you will reach the sea by bus or on foot, with a long stroll to the beach called "Praia", which is at approximately a mile.

Wonderful hosts
My partner and I stayed here during our visit to the Amalfi coast. The place itself was good, as expected. The host is definitely the highlight - Mr. Giovanni treated us with the most delicious figs fresh from his garden, and just a wonderful man to interact with (even though he didn't speak English)

We knew we didn’t want to stay in a town overrun by tourists or businesses that cater to tourists
We knew we didn’t want to stay in a town overrun by tourists or businesses that cater to tourists - thank goodness businesses here close for afternoon rest - good reminder! Great communication with host, home was perfect. I liked Summer In Italy company. You were recommended by a friend who frequently travels to Italy.

Great Views
The views of this place are amazing and the place itself is super cozy. The only downside is it is a walk up a fairly steep hill but what isn't in the Amalfi coast. The owners were extremely kind and responsive with anything we needed.
