Reviews of Casa Andreina A

Excellent

October 2024 - Very nicely located house, with a very nice view and a great terrace.

Good service from Summer In Italy.

Wonderful location

October 2024 - Wonderful location on Amalfi Coast... Vico Equense was not crowded like other towns. Had wonderful restaurants, which we could walk to. View from balcony was stunning.

Just loved the house

October 2024 - We just loved the house - it had everything we needed but above all was the fabulous view over the Bay of Naples. It was also useful to be able to see the beach from the house to check how busy it was! The terrace was huge so much so that we thought it was shared with a next door property! The property is private and not overlooked. The bed was very comfortable with plenty of storage space in the wardrobes. The main shower worked well. We loved all the large patio doors which opened on to the terrace and made the house feel very bright.

Francesca, the manager, was very welcoming - her English is excellent and she answered lots of our questions.

We found the property on your site and liked your website. Communication all the way through was excellent with a personal touch. The description of the layout of the property could have been better.

November 2023 - A spacious house with stunning views of the Bay of Naples. Meals on the terrace were a delight. Secure garage parking for your car as well.

Easy booking and a warm welcome by the owner on arrival.

Summer In Italy made the booking very easy, with clear information in good English.

Large house with beautiful views

November 2022 - We really enjoyed the stay. The house is very large and practically divided.

An incomparable view of the Gulf of Naples and Mount Vesuvius delighted us every day.

Fabulous location

October 2022 - Casa Andreina A was in a fabulous location and we had more than enough room. The kitchen was supplied with many essentials used for cooking. We enjoyed the many terraces. The swimming beach was very close and quiet.

Francesca [the property manager] was so helpful with any questions we had and directed us to many wonderful shops.

Highly recommended

October 2022 - The apartment is very spacious with two beautiful bathrooms and comfortable beds. The balcony is huge and from there you have a wonderful, unobstructed view of the Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius.

The kitchen is a bit old, but still offers everything you need. The third bedroom is quite small as can be seen in the advertisement, but the other rooms are all large. The apartment was very clean when we arrived, the welcome was warm and competent, everything was as described.

Vico Equense is a charming little town. It is only a 3-minute walk from the apartment to the closest small beach and 10 minutes to the Circumvesuviana station (which runs every 25 minutes). From there you can reach Sorrento by train in 15 minutes, Pompeii in 30 minutes and Naples in a good hour. Almost all other sights are on the train route or can be reached by bus (definitely recommended in autumn: a trip to Mount Vesuvius). A small supermarket with really everything you need can be reached on foot in 12 minutes. You don't even need a car, even if you could park it in the garage that belongs to the apartment.

We had a wonderful time in this beautiful apartment and would highly recommend it.

Beatiful villa

October 2022 - Beautiful villa, close to the beach. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Summer in Italy is great and professionally run and our overall experience was awesome. Luca was responsive and great to work with. Our host Francesca was always available when we had a question.

We enjoyed our stay immensely, view was fantastic, terrace was amazing

May 2022 - We enjoyed our stay immensely, view was fantastic, terrace was amazing. The property is brilliant. We felt safe and secure and accommodation was very well equipped, with 2 bathrooms, laundry room and large kitchen with a full size fridge.

We could not have been more comfortable. The detailed information provided on the property was extremely helpful.

Francesca's english was brilliant and her willingness to personally assist at the local police station when our phone was stolen, I believe, was over and above her duties. Thank you Francesca, we will always appreciate your genuine kindness.

We found this amazing property on line and the staff from Summer In Italy in our dealings with them were prompt, courteous and very professional.

A great base for a relaxing vacation

May 2022 - Peaceful setting with a magnificent view. House is quaint with real local charm. Couldn't ask for a better location - Vico Equense is the ideal spot to be based on the Amalfi Coast.

Summer in Italy were just terrific to deal with - very responsive and helpful. The property manager, Francesca, was very helpful.

Overall, a great base for a relaxing and wonderful vacation.

Booked with you based on reviews we read - they were right. Loved how responsive and helpful you were.

What a beautiful home!!

October 2019 - What a beautiful home!! Tiled floors were fantastic, inside and outside. Loved the terrace with breath taking views. Casa Andreina A was clean, kitchen functional, beds comfortable.

Lucky to have found such awesome rental to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary with daughter and granddaughter.

Excellent

September 2019 - If you are a small group of four or less, this house cannot be best. The view of Mount Vesuvius was absolutely stupendous from the terrace.

Francesca, our house manager, was a delight and very helpful with tips and making arrangements for us.

Summer In Italy is an excellent company. You all could not have been more helpful or friendly. All the paper work and directions were well laid out.

Great view

October 2018 - Casa Andreina A has a great view and it is easy to get to the town and to the train station.

Good information and service from the caretaker, Renato!

Good service from Summer In Italy.

Travel tips

The terrace, view and sunsets were worth seven stars

June 2018 - We loved Casa Andreina A. The terrace, view and sunsets were worth seven stars. The kitchen was slightly dark and there was occasional scooter noise but these are trivial criticisms. We have rented many properties in Europe and this was one of the best.

Vico Equense is a great small town, much more attractive than Sorrento and ideally placed for public transport to Pompeii, Amalfi, etc. The walk up the steps or the road to the town helped our fitness!

Renato [the caretaker] was very helpful, eg arranging a taxi for our return to Naples airport.

Summer In Italy were great, even arranging for Renato to shop for us so that we had the basics on our arrival in the evening. Recommendations were why we chose Summer In Italy. Can't think of any improvements and would certainly use them for our next Italian trip.

Travel tips

An unbelievable view...

May 2018 - The view from Casa Andreina A is absolutely beautiful. An unbelievable view... Amazing. The terrace is a great place to see and enjoy it any time, especially in the evening when you can see lights and fireworks.

Highly recommend Summer In Italy services. Everything was very smooth, no issues, no problems. Great value for the rates. Thank you!

Wonderful place to stay

April 2018 - What a wonderful place to stay! We absolutely loved Casa Andreina and had an unforgettable stay. The view from the terrace on the bay of Naples, Mount Vesuvius and the small port is sensational.

We were there in April when there were not many tourists. We had the impression to be alone. Casa Andreina is in a fantastic position to discover the region, down the hill of a nice little town with great transport links (10 minutes to the train station, which has links to all the towns of the coast). Having a garage is a bonus that we didn't expect. Vico Equense is a town to discover too.

The house is perfect, luminous, with glass doors in all the rooms, well decorated.

We were greeted warmly. Renato [the owner] was very helpful and gave us a lot of information to discover Vico Equense.

We had not heard of Summer in Italy before. They offer an exceptional service. We will certainly look out for this company for next holidays.

Wonderful holiday

October 2017 - Casa Andreina A was exactly as described, great. Wonderful holiday, everything was fine.

Renato [the caretaker] was always a great help with valuable tips.

We booked through Summer In Italy because it met our expectations and already suggested Summer In Italy to our friends.

Travel tips

Fantastic!

August 2017 - Fantastic - good value, wonderful location, property manager very helpful. We really enjoyed our stay.

My experience with Summer In Italy has been really positive - the service was friendly and efficient. I would be happy to use this company again. Thank you for a hassle-free holiday.

Loved our stay

June 2017 - Loved our stay and hope to have the opportunity to stay at Casa Andreina A again!

Renato [the caretaker] was the BEST!

We have booked through Summer In Italy before and we will again - great service and support!!

Travel tips

Enjoyed our stay

May 2017 - We enjoyed our stay very much.

We deliberately came at the end of May to avoid the great heat of Summer (June, July and August) that we had been warned about and found the weather to be perfect for us...

Travel tips

We really enjoyed our stay!

April 2017 - We really enjoyed our stay in Casa Andreina A. The view was stunning. The property was spacious and very clean and tastefully decorated. We had easy access by foot to the local town which was a real bonus. There was quite a bit of passing traffic up and down to the beach but this did not bother us very much.

The manager of the property was very helpful.

We are pleased with the service provided by Summer In Italy.

Travel tips

Very good

October 2016 - Casa Andreina A had everything we wanted - 2 bathrooms, a dishwasher, a huge balcony with a wonderful view of Mount Vesuvius. Our only criticism would be that it rained very heavily on 4 days while we were there and the house did feel a bit damp. If it had been sunny and we could have left the patio doors open and sat on the balcony more often, I don't think it would have been a problem.

Mr Renato, the caretaker, was exceptionally friendly and helpful. He took us for pizza on arrival and to the bus on departure and answered any questions we had.

Service from Summer In Italy was very good and it was easy to pay for the accommodation by credit card.

Travel tips

The best place for us

September 2016 - I'm very picky when I book a holiday, but I found the best place for us - Casa Andreina A was superb. The best things about it were:

a) The spectacular westwards view of the beach bay and Mount Vesuvius during the day, the sunset, and magical light show of Naples at night, all made even better by this long open terrace. The pictures shown don't seem to do it justice. I don't think you can get this type of view even from Sorrento.

b) The closeness of a quiet private beach - which Renato (the caretaker of the house) can get low rates for.

c) The space inside the house, and well laid out.

d) The welcome, helpfulness and friendliness of Renato - a true happy Italian.

e) Very easy train links to Sorrento, Naples, Pompeii etc - you really don't need a car.

Some previous comments mentioned about some traffic noise. In context: outside is a winding road below house level where there is the occasional scooter, car or small bus going down to the beach. But it really is quite minor and becomes non-existent after 7pm ish. There is no way it affected our stay at all. The majority of the time it was peaceful - a bit like country road traffic that's all.

We are going back there another year - no question.

Renato [the caretaker] was there whenever needed, and always with a smile and a chat. He seemed to know everyone. Renato: I must complement you on the house and help. As I said to you - we would love to come back another year. :)

Enjoyable stay

July 2016 - An enjoyable stay in a well-equipped house, with the few shortcomings of the property more than made up for by the very spacious accommodation and absolutely magnificent terrace.

Being offered a car ride to and from our bus stop (the return being at 6.30 am!) was excellent service and very much appreciated.

We have been renting holiday properties across Europe for 30 years, and the information and standard of service provided by “Summer In Italy” is by far the best we have ever had (either from agencies or private owners). You seem to have thought of everything a visitor might need. Congratulations!

Travel tips

Good

July 2016 - We very much enjoyed our stay. Casa Andreina A provided a spacious stay with wonderful views and a fantastically large balcony. There are elements of the property which are a bit 'tired' e. g. the hand basin in the main bathroom is cracked and there were some problems with the electrics/motors to garage doors but in the scheme of things these were 'small beer' and overall we were very pleasantly surprised by the size of the accommodation.

The owner was extremely helpful, arranging to pick us up from the local station and take us back to the bus stop. A big thank you for your help and hospitality.

I found dealing with Summer In Italy extremely straight forward and easy.

Excellent

June 2016 - This is a million dollar view!!!!

The terrace is huge! The access to the beach into about 1-2 min.

The caretaker Mr. Renato is a very helpful and kind man, he gave us a lot of advices and tips.

We would definitely return.

Summer In Italy did a wonderful job! I will recommend you to my friends!!!

Travel tips

Very good

October 2015 - Best bit is the fabulous view of the bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius from the huge terrace running the full length of the apartment which makes Casa Andreina A super enjoyable.

Being at only 5 minute walk to the beach is a bonus!

Vico Equense should be promoted more as the perfect holiday location with much to recommend it.

Travel tips

Excellent

September 2015 - Casa Andreina A was one of the nicest vacation houses we have ever stayed in. We absolutely loved it and it has a view to die for!

The caretaker took amazingly good care of us and even took us to the station on departure.

We thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience.

Without a doubt Summer In Italy is the most thorough, efficient and attentive agency I have ever encountered. A total pleasure to do business with you!!

Fantastic

May 2015 - Casa Andreina A was a fabulous apartment for our family and we absolutely loved the terrace and the view - unbeatable. The accommodation was perfect for us and a great size, lots of space indoors and outside.

Renato [the caretaker] meeting us and explaining things about the apartment was much nicer than just turning up at a place with keys. He was very friendly and made sure we knew that we could contact him at any time if we needed anything. He is a lovely man and extremely helpful.

I found your site quite by accident and decided to book with you as you seemed to be knowledgeable about the area. I am so glad we did as the service we have had from you has been fantastic. We had a super holiday and when we return to Italy we will definitely come back to you to find a property. Very, very impressed with your service, communication and friendliness. Thank you!

September 2014 - Casa Andreina A is a lovely and spacious apartment, with a fabulous large outside terrace.

The view is wonderful, and this is the best feature of the apartment. It was mostly peaceful, though there was more traffic on the small road just outside than we expected in the evening (going to and from the marina).

It's a bit of a trek uphill to the town centre on a windy road (cobblestones road pavement, no sidewalk), but the location makes up for that, given the wonderful views of Vesuvius across the Bay of Naples.

The caretaker visited us during the week to check everything was okay and he was so nice that picked up us at the station on arrival.

We've booked with Summer In Italy before, when we stayed on the Amalfi Coast six years ago (in Ravello) - we've always been very happy with the apartments and the booking process.

Fantastic

August 2014 - Casa Andreina A is an ideal place to stay. Lovely well maintained house with very friendly and helpful owner.

Brilliant service from Summer In Italy the whole way through, from initial enquiries, booking and then helping with any queries and providing advice. Very friendly, helpful and speedy responses - couldn't be happier with the service.

April 2014 - Casa Andreina A is a wonderful apartment with a sensational view! Having a garage for the car was a real bonus. There are steps up to the house from the road but our 93 year old mother managed them with ease! The town isn't far but it is a steep walk.

Everything was perfect - and Renato [the caretaker] was really helpful!

Hadn't heard of Summer in Italy before we found it on the Internet. Shall certainly look out for this company in the future.

Excellent

October 2013 - We absolutely loved Casa Andreina. It is in a fantastic position, in a great town with great transport links, near the beach and with a brilliant pizza take-away at the top of the (very windy) road!

We also found the person looking after the property to be so helpful, with some refreshments in the fridge ready for our arrival.

I found your agency and your service excellent. I would definitely recommend you to others and, indeed, have done so already.

Fantastic

October 2013 - We enjoyed a lovely stay at this rental property. With only 2 of us in this large rental we had plenty of space to roam around!

The outdoor deck/terrace was beautiful and we could watch the boats go by on the water out front. With only 30 stairs to climb it was easy access to the property.

We were met in town and received excellent service showing us the property and checking later that all was going well.

We really enjoyed our stay there.

We had a great experience with Summer in Italy. Easy to book, easy to use the website and great service from all we had contact with!
