Loved the old farm house feel - reminded us of Grandparents’ houses! We enjoyed watching the horses across the street. And it was so close to DuPont Forest! We had a few rain showers come through which were relaxing to watch from the covered porch.

Laura and Nerissa were nice guests and good company.
Thanks for the nice words
Laura e Narissa sono state ospiti piacevoli e di buona compagnia.
Grazie per le belle parole.
Beautiful villa, which stayed cool even in 26-28 degree weather. Everything was well set up, and Sonia was available to help if we needed anything
The villa is 15 minutes walk from San Giorgio di Cremano station, and from there you can travel to larger cities, Pompei, Vesuvius, etc.

a quiet haven in Napoli
Through Sonia and others we found out Napoli people are very caring for their guests.
Ciro the taxi awaited us at the airport, as agreed with Sonia, with a colorful sign, to bring us to the secluded gardens with our holiday rent.
One of the top features of this place are the gardens, and the terrace, because every morning you can sit outside and enjoy your breakfast besides the fruittrees, flowers and palmtrees, shaded from the sun, or you can sit in the sun.
The circulare will bring you to Napoli, Ercolano, Pompei and Sorrento, where you can take a cheap regular bus with stunning views to Positano, for a daytrip.
We walked to the circulare train, i think its 1 km, perfectly doable, but beware, the last train goes about 21.30, then one has to take a night bus from Garibaldi. Nightlife is one big party so its easy to loose track of time..
Warm recommendations, Dirk Jan

Lovely Cottage in a Classic Villa Setting
This cottage is a recently converted outbuilding of a classic Italian-style villa that features beautiful gardens and fountains and an adjoining citrus grove. It is very ample for two and could accomodate one or two others, with supplemental bedding arrangements. It has tile floors, great details, a fireplace, lots of light. The bed is very comfortable. The kitchen and bathroom are new and function well. It has a “split” air conditioner/heater of ample capacity. It is very quiet and seems quite secure, with parking included. The family lives next door in the main villa building. Sonia, the family member who manages the property, is easily reachable and very helpful.
If you’re driving, the house is easily reachable from the E45 autostrada. If you’re on foot, you’ll have to walk about one-mile from the nearest station on the Circumvesuviana train line (San Giorgio a Cremano). It’s a pleasant walk - partly through an urban stretch and then along a country road. You can reach downtown Naples on the Circumvesuviana in about a half hour (but note that the trains don’t always run that frequently). You can reach Herculaneum on the Circumvesuviana in about fifteen miniutes and, from there, take a bus to near the crater of Mt. Vesuvius. Note that the “National Park of Vesuvius” is actually quite urban in its lower parts; it becomes more of a real natural park as you get to higher elevations.

We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay in Villa Raffaela and that the holiday was enjoyable. Thank you for your warmth and kindness, I hope to see you soon.
Siamo felici che abbiate gradito il soggiorno in villa Raffaela e che la vacanza sia stata piacevole. Grazie per la vostra cordialità e simpatia, spero di rivedervi presto.
Accueil très chaleureux de Sonia, l'appartement est en tout point conforme à l'annonce, il a un côté rustique mais il est tres bien équipé et est très bien situé pour visiter Naples, Pompéi, le Vesuve etc...Stationnement à l'intérieur. Je recommande ce logement.
Très belle demeure avec un jardin splendide, parfaitement situé lorsqu'on cherche un peu de calme, bien que le centre ville /gare soit assez proche (20min à pieds). Pizzeria familiale à 5-10min à pieds. De la Gare de San Giorgio on rejoint facilement Naples/Ercolano/Pompeii
Un bon point de départ pour le Vésuve, Pompéi, Herculanum. Un peu à l'écart de la ville, mais au calme. Terrasse magnifique, fleirie, jardin verdoyant.
Accueil chaleureux et attentionné dans une très belle propriété, au calme. L'hébergement est joli, confortable, très bien équipé, et climatisé. La terrasse est super (prévoir l'anti moustiques). Pompéi et Naples accessibles en train.
Sonia est une hôte charmante et très sympathique.Elle s’assure que l’on manque de rien .Le site est superbe et tres tranquille .L’appartement tres bien climatisé,tres propre,on n’y manque de rien.A 15 min de la gare .Un sejour genial..et en plus elle fait son propre miel qui est succulent…si je reviens je retourne chez elle…merci encore Sonia
Plusieurs petites attentions à l'arrivée
Stationnement sur place sécurisé
Logement propre
Bel environnement dans la propriété
Accès facile au Vesuve
Facilité d'accès à la gare pour Naples ou Sorente
Merci à Sonia et à sa maman
La situation de la Villa Rafaella correspond à ce que nous attendions : entre la ville de Naples et le pied du Vésuve que l'on voit , très imposant, dès que l'on sort de la Villa. Les jardins sont bien entretenus . On peut s'y détendre, au soleil ou non, dans un grand calme. En saison estivale, on peut faire ses repas sur une terrasse très accueillante.
Le coin est très calme.
Enfin, aucun problème de communication avec Madame Sonia Testa qui a su nous aider .
Sonia und ihre Mutter sind sehr liebenswerte, freundliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeber.
Die Villa Raffaela liegt in einem wunderschönen abgeschlossenem Grundstück. Wir haben in einem Nebengebäude gewohnt, welches gut und zweckmäßig ausgestattet ist. (u.a. eine Waschmaschine). Das Auto kann man auf dem Grundstück parken. Von dort erreicht man Neapel Zentrum mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln in ca. 30 Minuten ( 10 Minuten Fußweg und Zug (1,60€ pro Strecke und Person).
Vesuv und Pompeji sind ebenfalls gut zu erreichen. ( Tickets müssen: Stand 09.2021 online reserviert werden .
Nochmal herzlichen Dank an Sonia
Das Grundstück ist eine Oase (erstaunlich ruhig und mit netten Sitzplätzen in einem schönen Garten mit kleinem Seerosenteich) jenseits des Trubels von Neapel. (Einziger Nachteil sind die Moskitos im Garten, aber es waren nur vereinzelte. Im Haus hatten wir keine.) Das Häuschen ist geräumig, die Küche gut ausgestattet, die Matratze prima, die Klimaanlage hat gut funktioniert. Sonia ist freundlich und war immer schnell erreichbar, wenn wir Fragen hatten. Mit der Bahn (und Fußweg) erreicht man den Hauptbahnhof von Neapel innerhalb einer halben Stunde (wenn man die Abfahrtszeiten kennt und die Bahn pünktlich fährt). Als Ausgangspunkt für Pompeii und Ercolano Scavi sehr geeignet. (Eine Anregung bzgl. der Anfahrt hätten wir: Unser Navigator hatte die Adresse nicht gefunden, so haben wir das Haus bei unserer Ankunft fast zwei Stunden umkreist :-(. Eventuell wäre es gut, noch ein paar Anhaltspunkte zu bekommen ;-).) Fazit: Wir können den Aufenthalt uneingeschränkt empfehlen und würden jederzeit, wenn wir nochmal in die Gegend kommen sollten (und es lohnt sich, hier mehr Zeit zu verbringen!), wieder in der Villa Raffaela übernachten. Liebe Sonia, nochmal danke für den angenehmen Aufenthalt!

It was very nice to meet Tamara and her husband and to help make their stay pleasant, I hope to see them again soon.
La propriété est très agréable avec ses orangers et sa terrasse. Le logement est bien conçu pour un séjour de plusieurs jours. C'est facile d'aller à Naples, à Pompéi, à Sorrento, le vésuve depuis le logement grâce au train Circumvesuvio bien pratique et des lignes de bus. cependant il faut faire attention aux horaires des trains car les horaires s'arrêtent assez tot le soir. C'était plus difficile pour le réveillon du nouvel an (pas de train, pas de bus, pas de taxi). Le logement convient mieux pour un couple avec un véhicule. Point positif: situation très calme, loin du bruit de la ville.

Merci pour votre avis, ce fut un plaisir de vous accueillir!
J'espère vous revoir bientôt, peut-être en été, pour profiter au maximum de la terrasse et du jardin fleuri.
Grazie per la vostra recensione, è stato un piacere potervi ospitare!
Spero di rividervi presto magari con la bella stagione così si può godere al meglio la terrazza ed il giardino fiorito.
We stayed in Sonia's beautiful place for a few days with our 2 year old son. Sonia is a great host, directions were clear and the place is such that you have your own privacy within the grounds.
Only 15mins from the seaside and very close access to the motorway, perfect to visit Napoli, Pompei and other sites around.
The calm and quiet of Sonia's property will also be appreciated after a day in the very busy Napolitan life ;)
Everything you need inside the housse even if you were to stay longer than us.
10/10 would recommend !

Niet goed bevallen . Nachtrust verstoord door de muggen.
Gastvrouw toonde geen enkele interesse , gaf geen enkele informatie over de omgeving en liet zich niet zien .
Het huisje was ruim maar gedateerd.
Douche en toilet zeer beneden de maat.
Adres zeer onduidelijk, ondanks Tom Tom , Google Maps en hulp van diverse lokale bewoners. De gastvrouw was hiervan niet onder de indruk,

Lovely garden and terrace, charming hostess
If I’m honest, apart from the Herculaneum excavations, I found the Naples area a bit disappointing. But this property made the holiday a good one anyway. Sonja is a perfect hostess, available and helpful if needed, but otherwise thoughtfully absent so I was left in peace. She very kindly arranged a taxi from and to the airport, a most useful service. Two things stand out: the terrace and garden, with orange trees and shrubs, are very lovely, and the bed is very comfortable, so I slept very well indeed. San Giorgio a Cremano station is only 10 minutes’ walk away, giving access to Pompeii, Herculaneum and Naples by train and metro (but walk carefully - the traffic is insane).

Goede uitvalsbasis voor uitstapjes naar Pompeii, Herculaneum en Vesuvius
De plek is ideaal om vanuit hier alle moois in de omgeving te ontdekken. Het huisje zelf is ruim, het ligt zeer rustig en er is een mooie tuin. Toen wij er waren was het helaas behoorlijk koud en vochtig, daardoor ook last van muggen. De elektra is aan vervanging toe (kortsluiting bij gebruik van de oven). De gastvrouw was wel bijzonder behulpzaam en vriendelijk. Let op, vraag vooraf een zeer duidelijke routebeschrijving , van de straat waaraan het ligt zijn er namelijk 3 in Ercolano, dat was erg verwarrend...

Une villa paisible et accueillante
Nous avons séjourné 10 jours dans l'une des deux dependances de la villa.
L'accueil par Sonia fut chaleureux et cordial.
La maison parfaitement équipée, calme et sécurisée est conforme à la description. C'est un point de chute ideal pour visiter la Baie de Naples. Une gare ferroviaire à 1200 metres de la villa dessert les principaux sites touristiques de la région.
Encore merci à Sonia et sa maman pour leur disponibilité qui nous ont permis de passer de paisibles et reposantes vacances.
