A spacious flat, tastefully decorated, with everything provided for a comfortable stay.
Situated in a busy street, but noise is subdued when the window is closed. We stayed 16 nights and only on the night of a public holiday were we aware of excessive street noise. We slept well every other night.
The flat is 2 mins. from the station and funicular, and all kind of shops, restaurants, etc. are in the immediate vicinity, as is the tree-planted promenade with a view of Vesuvius.
Castellammare is not a pretty town, but is an authentic working town with few tourists. It is lively in the evenings and perfectly safe. From this town we visited Pompeii, Ercolano, Vesuvius, Naples, Paestum, Sorrento, Amalfi, Atrani, Salerno, Vietri, Oplontis, Boscoreale and the two villas of Stabiae. We also walked to the summit of Monte Faito, then down to Vico Equense. Breathtaking views. From Sorrento we took buses and walked to various villages in the Sorrentine Peninsula. We could have taken the ferry to Capri, but decided to stay on Capri next year.
We enjoyed returning to the flat each evening, either to eat there or to dine out. "Ristorante Bistrot da Gaetano" was our favourite restaurant. Excellent quality, very friendly service.
Catello was very helpful and available had we needed advice. We enjoyed the local wine he left!
We are very glad we chose this accommodation.
