Beautiful villa close to Sorrento
Beautiful villa close to Sorrento! We loved sitting on the many porches and enjoying the great view of the sea.
We were able to walk to it from the train station and also was able to walk to several restaurants in Sant'Agnello di Sorrento.
Highly recommend it!

This was the most stunning place I have ever seen
This was the most stunning place I have ever seen. The views alone made it worth it.
The proximity to Marinella Beach (walking distance) and its accessibility was amazing. It is on a private and quiet street with views of Mt. Vesuvius.
I can’t say enough about this house. It was spectacular and I hope to stay here again one day. 10/10

Villa Beniamina is in a stunningly beautiful spot
Villa Beniamina is in a stunningly beautiful spot! We felt so privileged to stay there. It was quiet and away from the crowds of tourists.
It was wonderful to wake up in the morning, step out on the terrace, and see an incomparable view of Mt. Vesuvius and the Bay of Naples. We cooked in the well-equipped kitchen and shared festive meals in the dining room. A well-stocked supermarket is a 10 minute walk away.
Each evening at sunset we enjoyed cocktail hour on the roof terrace or on the piazza in front. We also enjoyed some of the many restaurants nearby. The location is ideal for day trips to Pompeii, Capri, and the Amalfi Coast. All accessible by public transit.
Thanks to our hosts for preserving the marvelous historic 1893 villa and making it available for our enjoyment.

We loved Villa Beniamina
We loved Villa Beniamina! The view was spectacular. There was 8 adults in our party and there was plenty of room for everyone. The location was great, walking distance to many great restaurants, and the beach.
Danila, our host was very responsive to our needs and questions. She was so friendly and helpful.
Summer In Italy was recommended to us by friends who had booked with them in the past. We found Summer In Italy very easy to book through and work with. They were very prompt in responding to our inquiries and they always sent reminders of upcoming payments or other information needed to make our time at the villa enjoyable. I would not hesitate to book with them again.
My husband and I , son , daughter , son-in-law, 13 yr old, 9 yr old granddaughters really enjoyed the place. It was a beautiful location. Rooms for everyone . Loved the terraces. Great area to relax with some wine, etc.
Great restaurants next to Villa . 30 minute walk to Serrento . No problem getting taxis either.
Minor inconveniences: no a/c - we only had 1 night where it was a little uncomfortable, otherwise it was bareable with ceiling fans. There is a washing machine but no dryer, we used the rack dryers while we were there. This is typical of Italy living…so we expected that. And finally, because of the promenade outside the house, it could get a little noisy.

Loved this place
Loved this place. We were a group of 6 adults and the villa made a great base for our stay in the Amalfi Coast. About a mile walking to train station was easy. The villa is a real special treat to stay in with plenty of charm from the glory days of the 60's. It was a real treat to stay in such an amazing villa, with 14 foot ceilings, 1 and 2 foot thick walls, original windows and shutters, directly on the coast with balconies overlooking the whole coast and Mount Vesuvius. Would love to come back some time.
Thanks so much for opening you villa for us to enjoy. It was amazing to see its charm and I especially enjoyed it being original and preserved. We all wish you well when you decide to retire in the area and can imagine the villa when you bring it back to life. Everything worked well for our group and had no issues. Loved visiting with your cleaning lady as it helped us settle in. We all live in wonderful homes in California with vacation homes in the mountains. Your villa gave us an exciting glimpse into Italy's wonderful culture. Thanks again.
Summer In Italy did the most amazing job we have ever experienced. They held our funds through the Covid crisis, and helped us reschedule after (VRBO stiffed us and kept our money on other reservations). Their communication is unmatched and nothing like VRBO and the others. They answered emails immediately, gave us suggestions, helped us settle into the property, and were easy to communicate with. Great job Luca and your team.

Fantastic location and view
Fantastic location and view. Plus, the house is amazing in itself. There are so few villas immediately on the coast like this in Sorrento so this is a special place.
Being so special, many locals and also weddings next door come out to enjoy this location too which makes it quite lively most nights. That’s not too much an issue but since the villa does not have air conditioning, you must sleep with windows open which makes it less fun.
But once you have your coffee or a limoncello on that deck overlooking the water, you will forget about your lack of sleep and fall in love with Sorrento.
Everything worked out well. I’d be happy to book another villa next time.

Villa Beniamina is spectacular
Villa Beniamina is spectacular! The location, overlooking the sea, is outstanding. The train station and grocery store are a short half-mile walk. We always felt completely safe walking.
The villa is equipped with everything you would need for a perfect vacation. We appreciated the washing machine, the big screen TV in the living room. The view from the roof top terrace is outstanding. We could see Mount Vesuvius. We also appreciated the maid service three times per week. We were provided clean sheets and towels half way through our ten day stay.
The owner was very responsive to our needs, and speaks fluent English.
Summer In Italy is a great company - lots of communication before the trip.

The villa is exceptional
The villa is exceptional. It's location / view is unbeatable.
The hosts are wonderful.
We came two years ago and told so many stories about how much we liked it, that different friends wanted to go to the area and stay in that very villa. It was as special the second time as the first.
Summer In Italy was very helpful. They make everything easier!

We really enjoyed staying at Villa Beniamina
We really enjoyed staying at Villa Beniamina. It is a property full of character and charm. The rooms are large, the ceilings very high, and with the wonderful stairwell, hallway and landing - it feels very grand.
The fact that it is an older property means that some aspects are not in the best order, the floors in some bedrooms for example have loose tiles and the upstairs bathrooms are a bit tired. The owners have recently refurbished the kitchen which although quite small was lovely. There is a garden with lemon trees and plenty of shade on a hot day.
The overall impression is of a delightful property in a lovely location.
The views from the villa are amazing! The area outside the villa has a bench and people come to sit and admire the scenery. The downside is that on warm nights young people often congregate outside, playing music and making a noise, making it hard to sleep in the front bedroom. The refuse collectors also make noise in the early hours which could make sleep difficult if you are a light sleeper.
Maria the caretaker is a great asset, she is extremely responsive should anything need sorting out and comes in during the week to clean. She is a warm, friendly person and helped to make our stay very comfortable.
Summer In Italy have been great, very helpful and responsive to all questions.

Villa Beniamina was exactly the experience I wanted for my families trip to Sorrento
Villa Beniamina was exactly the experience I wanted for my families trip to Sorrento. It was a wonderful old world home with lots of charm.
Plenty of room for everyone and property is exceptional. Especially the location. We just could not get enough of the spectacular view...
Maria [the caretaker] who met us at the property could not have been more gracious and accommodating.
Because of its location, for us it was very special as we were able to visit with my husbands family and make wonderful memories. We definitely will return.
The booking process was very easy and the agents provided excellent assistance.

My entire family had a most wonderful stay at Villa Beniamina
My entire family had a most wonderful stay at Villa Beniamina. It is very close to shopping, restaurants, the Sorrento beach and Piazza Tasso.
The villa it self was fantastic along with the outstanding views. I loved everything about it!
The villa has a beautiful terrace with the most beautiful sunset over the Bay which we made it a point to view from the upper terrace every evening with some appetizers and drinks... Amazing!
The highlight of the villa was Maria [the caretaker]. She made everything so very easy. She met us and explained the villa upon our arrival. She also offered chef service which we took advantage of one evening. The shopping, the cooking, cleanup and food prep with amazing presentation and flowers was there for us when we arrived back from Positano.
I would book with Luca from Summer In Italy again. He was very responsive and wanted to be sure that everything was understood. He and his crew always stayed in touch before our arrival to be sure that everything went smoothly.
Great location with an ocean view from the balconies and rooftop terrace. Very spacious with vintage charm, a lovely garden, and a newly updated kitchen that was a joy to use. It was close to excellent restaurants, public transportation, and grocery stores. The service was superb, including a friendly relationship with a neighboring hotel which offered invaluable recommendations and assistance.

Fabulous villa overlooking the water.
This villa has views that are just as good, if not better than the priciest hotels along the coastline of Sorrento. Spacious rooms with comfortable beds. We loved the roof top view of the sunset for our cocktail hours overlooking the sparkling blue waters as we gazed at Mount Vesuvius, Pompei and the Isle of Capri. We were a party of 8 (4 couples) and the villa fit our crowd perfectly.

This place was grand and charming
This place was grand and charming. It was very large and beautiful. The outdoor space was amazing and the views spectacular. We were 3 couples on vacation together and we were able to relax and visit the surrounding area because we felt centrally locates.
Maria [the caretaker] was very helpful and we were able to get around without a car just fine.
Absolutely no problems with Summer In Italy. Feedback was quick and helpful.

Beautiful old villa in great location. Needs some attention as dated but very authentic Italian
Great place to stay, only 25 mins walk from Sorrento centre. Good local amenities and restaurants. Fantastic terrace to watch the super yachts which anchor off shore! A little noisy in the evening as a perfect view point outside but beautiful old villa full of character
