September 2017 - Fantastic apartment. The pool and villa were well maintained. Our living room was huge and all the other rooms had very generous proportions. Just missed a bit of outside space but we had a lovely balcony that overlooked Atrani. The grounds were beautiful and in a really lovely spot.

Mr Nicola [the caretaker] was brilliant and helped us with our bags when we left.

Loved staying here. Was very safe.

Really pleased with the level of service we received. Will definitely book a holiday through you again.

Travel tips

  • The villa is in an amazing spot in Atrani but just be ready for all of the steps up and down each day.
  • There was also a lot of people walking past the villa so make sure the shutters are closed if you are inside.

September 2017 - Great but not for everyone due to the steep entrance into the complex.

Summer In Italy were good, would recommend.

Travel tips

  • If arriving by private transfer from airport ask driver to stop at supermarket to get shopping, plus we offered our driver a tip for driving down the steep entrance.
  • Hundreds of steps down to Atrani.

Travel tips

  • Lovely place if you like to be away from very touristy sites. Great to get a feel for Italian seaside living.
  • Be prepared to climb steep steps. Count on needing a car to get to Ravello.

Travel tips

  • Make sure you bring everything you need to make a home from home: books, local info and basic cooking ingredients -- also a willingness to speak Italian, or at least a phrasebook -- the caretaker is very nice but he speaks no English.
  • There are fabulous restaurants all around especially Ravello -- if you don't want to drive to them, take some sturdy walking shoes as the path to Ravello is pretty strenuous --worth the effort, but you'll need a torch at night if you want to avoid the main road.
  • Take care if you're driving to the villa, especially on the entrance to the drive -- there are two metal bars sticking out of the gate for no conceivable reason, and they're very easy to hit if you approach at the wrong angle. We scraped our car on them during the week we were there.

September 2015 - Bigger than average apartment with a fantastic views.

Unfortunately the apartment had no attached outdoor space to enjoy, although you were able to use the swimming pool/terrace.

Staff were friendly and helpful although they spoke limited English.

Nearest town of Atrani was unspoilt and had a genuine Italian feel to it.

There was easy access to the other towns by bus, car or foot if energetic.

We really enjoyed our week here.

Yes, it is indeed correct: there is no private outdoor area for Appartamento Ulisse (you will be able to use the shared outdoor areas, of course).

August 2015 - The location was excellent and the quality of the villa very good. The view from the swimming pool and from our apartment was exquisite. The setting in the valley and the view up to Ravello and down to Atrani were beautiful.

Easy access to Atrani and Amalfi on foot were a real plus for evening promenades and meals. The trek back up hill kept us fit. We even walked to Ravello along the ancient pathway.

The only downside was not having a proper balcony to enjoy the view of the sea but the large windows did enable us to see the view from our living room.

July 2015 - A super location midway up the valley between the less touristy coastal village of Atrani (10 mins max walk - down quite a few steps!) and a 5 mins drive up to Ravello. Atrani has its own distinct character and small beach. For an extra 5 mins walk there is a lovely cliff walk around the headland into Amalfi proper, were all the tourist facilities are (shops, boats to Capri etc are).

We loved the church bells in the morning! The view from the living room balcony takes your breath away. The shared pool is fantastic and garden surroundings perched on the cliff side are excellently maintained, peaceful with spectacular views.

The driveway off the main Atrani-Ravello road into the apartments involves a few tight bends as one descends to a small car park - not suitable for large cars (we had a Ford Focus - any larger would have been a challenge).

Overall a very relaxing location - highly recommended - we will probably go back!!

June 2015 - My family enjoyed the area and villa very much.

We didn't find the 355 step down to Atrani that difficult. The restaurant at the base of the steps was great for their food and friendly service. The bus system work well once you got use to it and the town of Amalfi was very close to walk to.

Everything was wonderful!!

Summer in Italy was great. Your web site and fast communication and service made it easy to decide to use you. From beginning, during our stay (we ran into complications which you helped us out with) to the end made our stay very enjoyable. Thank you

July 2014 - Greatest plus to Appartamento Ulisse is it's location. The walks to Amalfi, Atrani and Ravello are beautiful and doable, Ravello a bit longer and hillier but oh what a gorgeous hike.

Atrani beaches less touristy thus beaches are not as crowded as Amalfi.

We enjoyed the morning hillside walks to Atrani for breakfast and swim.

August 2006 - The apartment was clean and as described. Plenty of room for our group of four, 2 adults and 2 children aged 9 and 10. Excellent welcome and helpful manager.

Location was certainly different. We didn't hire a car as we didn't fancy taking on Italian drivers and we found it was absolutely fine.

We regularly walked the 300 steps into Atrani to buy supplies and eat out and we also walked the 15 minutes to Amalfi a couple of times. The ancient steps were fascinating taking you under the houses of Atrani and Amalfi. We also walked up to Ravello and found it well worth the climb. Particularly being able to spot our pool from the Villa in Ravello.
