Villa Sophie is lovely and was perfect for our family of four (2 adult sons). The home was beautiful and relaxing (especially the terrace where we enjoyed meals and just enjoyed the beautiful view. Everyone was super helpful and friendly. We loved our time here and would absolutely stay here again.
Incredible views! Best location! True Amalfi Coast experience.
We had the most amazing experience at Villa Sophie and in Praiano! The villa itself was beautifully decorated and we felt immediately at home on arrival. But the main terrace is the real heart of this villa. There are lounge chairs for sunning and a shaded area for al fresco dining or lounging. The views are incredible, and you will want to spend your time watching the crystal waters against the dramatic cliffsides. From the top terrace (yes- there’s a second terrace!), you can look down to Marina di Praia, which is an intimate beach cove. The path to the beach is picturesque. The marina is where you can also get a quick water taxi over to Positano. Franco (the villa’s local contact) was a wonderful help in recommending and arranging local restaurant reservations. The villa also had fruit, water, and snacks, which was an unexpected treat. Although there were not many steps, we appreciated the porter, who took our bags up / down at arrival and departure. Overall this location and villa are unbelievable - we can’t wait to return!!
This villa was unbelievable! First, the view was unparalleled. You could enjoy this breathtaking view from the living area, the bedrooms, the covered terrace and the sun terrace! We enjoyed the view every moment we were there, whether it was waking up with our coffee, resting in the afternoon, or cocktails before (an after) we went out.
The villa itself is beautiful and very comfortable. Everything you could need is there and the layout was just perfect for our group. We definitely appreciated the comfort of the beds and the private bathrooms for each bedroom. The kitchen area was just so convenient for our stay and it was such a lovely bonus to be able to make dinner at the villa and dine al fresco on the terrace. The maid service was a nice bonus as well. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. We appreciated all of their good advice and enthusiasm.
Most importantly, LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION!
Praiano is definitely the place to go if you want a less crowded and unhurried feel. Everything you need is right at your fingertips without the crush. The Marina di Praia is directly below the villa and has a lovely beach where you can spend some time swimming. There are a number of restaurants at the Marina area which is super convenient. If you want to take a water taxi to any place along the Amalfi coast, just a short walk to the Marina. You can be on the boat in moments! We went to Positano, Capri, and Amalfi via a water taxi to do some explorin
