Villa Serena is an elegant and welcoming three-story villa located in an isolated position, on the slopes of a hill which is covered with olive groves. It sleeps ten people. From Villa Serena you will enjoy a charming view over the Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius and of the sea. Villa Serena is 300 square meters (3230 square feet). It features a private swimming pool, gorgeous private terraces with a view of the sea, a private patio, two private gardens, air conditioning (please read description below to check in which rooms the units are installed), winter heating and WI-FI Internet access.
You will be roughly 2 km (1.2 miles) from Sorrento, roughly 800 meters (half a mile) from restaurants, shops and the stop for the SITA bus Amalfi-Sorrento line. You will find the closest beach at 2 km (roughly 1.25 miles). You will reach Villa Serena from the parking area going down a short walkway that cuts through the garden and includes approximately eight stairway steps.
You will not need a car to stay at Villa Serena. If you do have one, you will be able to park it on the premises, free of charge inside the entrance gate.
Villa Serena is tended by a caretaker, who resides in an apartment with separate entrance on the bottom floor.
When you are at Villa Serena, in its garden and on its terraces, you will find yourself in front of a fascinating panorama above the sea: right below you is the picturesque promontory of the cape of Sorrento, which seems to plunge into the blue of the sea with its verdant color due to the cultivation of olive and lemon trees. The green is interrupted here and there by white dots which are the result of the reflection of the sun on the walls of some country houses. Blue in the horizon is the arch of the Gulf of Naples and the islands of Ischia and Procida.
By looking around, you will see a splendid and very well-cared for garden rich in flowers: the air is clean and plant-scented, and the peacefulness is just perfect: you will feel glad for having chosen Villa Serena as your vacation home!
The garden lies before the sun and the scenery. The garden is fenced-in, really well-cared for, lush and abundant in flowers and trees, with hydrangeas, roses, geraniums, olives….
In front of the entrance to the villa, you will find a spacious portico under which there is large table with chairs which is perfect for meals outdoors amidst the flowers and facing the sea. A large green lawn lies before the ground floor of the villa: on the lawn you will find a large umbrella and several deck chairs facing the sea scenery.
An area of the garden placed next to the kitchen features a barbecue and a wood-fired oven ideal for pizzas. If you wish, under the guide of a true pizza chef from Sorrento, you will have fun preparing your own pizzas!
A small stone stairway of about twenty steps framed by lush bushes of hydrangeas will lead you to the lower level of the garden, which is also like a large terrace overlooking the sea and the sun. You will find a beautiful swimming-pool with a sinuous shape surrounded by a sun-drenched area. Near the swimming pool there is a gazebo shaded by a white awning. The swimming pool area is furnished with a small bar and a bathroom with shower.
At Villa Serena you will have a daily (except for Sunday) cleaning service and linen change.
In addition, a kind lady responsible for the house will be willing to assist you everyday with all her discretion to make sure your stay at Villa Serena is perfect. She will give tips to any excursion you may feel like taking or even assist at organizing upon-request dinners in the villa with meals, music, or fun use of the wood-fired oven to make pizzas. She is definitely a friendly and precious person in the house; a person truly appreciated and cherished by all the guests of the villa for far!
