About this property

The Literary House

Located in the heart of the historic center - a pedestrian area, three minutes away from the stunning beaches and the main square - , The Literary House is the perfect place for those who want to follow the trails left behind by famous authors, such as Torquato Tasso, Keats, Ibsen, Shelley and many others, in an evocative yet modern setting, luxuriously furnished and complete with every comfort.

The front door opens onto a spacious living room, which features a kitchen with induction cooker, coffee machine, SmartTV, free Wi-Fi, and a wide, sunny terrace overlooking the historic alleys, the typical citrus grove and an unforgettable sea view.

The two bedrooms - one of which with private bathroom and design day bed, the other one featured by a tailor-made wooden bookcase - have both a terrace, too, with breathtaking views of the Gulf of Naples and Mount Vesuvius; both have king size beds, open wardrobe and SmartTV.

Moreover, there are another bathroom and a utility room with washer/dryer.

This apartment is really beautiful and comfortable, its decoration is superb and meaningful, and it is provided with up-to-date technology for a comfortable stay. It is well located in the center of Sorrento, close to restaurants and shops. Excellent service and communication with Pierluca. Absolutely a place to recommend for future stays.

Perfect Location!
Beautiful, well appointed apartment in the historic district of Sorrento, no cars allowed so quiet and peaceful. Pierluca was a great resource, arranged parking near the apartment for our rental car and provided great recommendation to local establishments. We used Sorrento as a base to explore Positano and Amalfi and had a blast driving on the Amalfi coast road, if you are from North America its a bucket list drive!

Perfect Place to Stay
Our entire family loved this apartment. The location was amazing it has amazing restaurants right out it’s gates. It is close to everything you want to do or pick up locations. The apartment itself looked exactly like the pictures and was light and spacious, and the views we wonderful! It was hot when we went so the AC’s were a lifesaver. The apartment had the perfect extras like good coffee and a clothes steamer. Then owner was amazing and extremely responsive to the couple of questions we had. We would absolutely stay here again
