Summer In Italy was great to work with. Communications were always timely and accurate.

Would love to return some day

June 2022 - We had the best 4 nights. The location is fantastic, restaurants and a super market near by. The view is breathtaking and we would love to return some day.

We were guided around the property on arrival and shown how to work everything. I knew if we had any problems they would be have been addressed but we did not. We appreciated the baby cot as well.

Can’t thank enough Luciana [the owner] and Carmela [the caretaker] and all the Summer In Italy staff for all the advice provided before we landed. I emailed them multiple times and they replied every time with information and advice. Fantastic company, the help given is very much appreciated.

June 2022 - As per the listing - excellent location, lovely space, good local recommendations.

Great stay - thank you.

Felt like we were in our own summer home instead of someone else's

June 2022 - Casa Lauro and Summer In Italy were the best choice for our Positano experience! From the booking with Luca to the owner and property manager, the process was smooth and seamless.

The house is perfectly clean and maintained and is right off the street so no carting of luggage up steps. It is located about mid mountain so the walk up and down from the beach is not overwhelming. We usually walked down the steps and back up using the road.

Our group of 5 felt like we were in our own summer home instead of someone else's. Could not recommend any more stronger!

Fantastic place, incredible views

May 2022 - 7 of us stayed for 4 nights and it was such a fantastic place. Lots of bathrooms and more than enough space. The views were incredible.

The host also gave me a gorgeous little ceramic gift when leaving.

Excellent location at street level with an excellent view

April 2022 - We were only there for a short stay but what I can tell you is I would definitely book it again should I return in the future. The location is excellent and the fact that it is at street level is a big plus! The view is excellent! The proximity to restaurants and shopping is good. There's a bus stop just a few steps away from the front door.

For us Americans, the beds could be softer. That's really the only thing I can tell you to improve.

Summer In Italy guys were very kind and easy to work with as well. And the newsletter really helped us prepare for the trip. Thanks so much for getting our vacation off to a great start!

Such a beautiful, well kept home!

September 2021 - This place was incredible! Such a beautiful, well kept home! We were very comfortable with more than enough room for everyone. There are two terraces with the most beautiful views.

Easy walk to the beach, restaurants and shops.

We loved our stay and can’t wait to go back!

The owner/hosts were lovely and kind. We really appreciated meeting them.

Summer In Italy was a perfect way to book! I’ll use again in the future and recommend to friends! Thank you!

We enjoyed the villa very much

October 2019 - We enjoyed the villa very much - the location was good with it be half way down the hill and just a few steps off the street.

The villa was more spacious than we’d imagined, perfect for the three couples which we were. The car park was convenient, a short walk uphill.

The beach is pebbles, but I enjoyed the water. It’s best to walk first thing in the morning, Positano is so crowded after 10 am.

Summer In Italy have been excellent from my first contact with Luca, assisted by Andrea - should we return to Italy, I would undoubtedly contact Luca for all his assistance and advice. Thank you to you both.

October 2019 - Great location and value!

Great location, great views - steps to restaurants, shops and groceries

September 2019 - Casa Lauro was fantastic. Great location, great views - steps to restaurants, shops and groceries.

August 2019 - Beautiful home in a perfect location. We will be back!

A lovely place to stay!

July 2019 - Casa Lauro is a lovely place to stay! The villa itself is even bigger than the pictures. Our family of 4 only used 2 of the 4 bedrooms. It really is 2 homes in one! The terrace has a beautiful table and a spectacular view (both during the day and at night)!

The location is excellent with restaurants and shops very close by and the steps to the beach are just down the road.

We loved it here and would highly recommend it!

Travel tips

Loved the views from the terraces, great restaurants within walking distance, air conditioning

July 2019 - Grazie Luigi and Luciana! Your home was elegant, tastefully decorated, and had spectacular views! The air conditioning was a bonus because it was so HOT.

Better than the online photos

July 2019 - The views from the outside patio, kitchen and bedroom windows and bedroom patio with views of the Tyrrhenian Sea and Island of Gallo Lungo were absolutely breathtaking. The on-line photos don’t come close to depicting the true ambiance of the Villa.

The Villa was equipped with EVERYTHING we needed for our trip – plenty of places to sit and eat and chat. The Villa had a unique collection of art, décor and Italian heritage wall and shelf collectibles. One of the rooms on the lower level did not have air conditioning. We were there during the Italy heat wave, but due to the configuration of the Villa and sea breezes we never felt uncomfortable.

The owners Luigi and Luciana and the Summer in Italy contacts Anita and Andrea were superb. They offered good tips on dining, suggestions on transportation and excursions and arranged to meet us VERY EARLY for check-out on our departure date.

June 2019 - Best Place on Earth!

We had an absolutely wonderful time!!

June 2019 - Wonderful villa located in the best spot of Positano. We had an absolutely wonderful time!!

Would highly recommended it to anyone. Perfect for a large family or group. It was spotless and had everything we needed.

I would definitely use Summer In Italy again.

The villa is amazing

May 2019 - The villa is amazing, beautifully kept and spotlessly clean.

The bedrooms are all comfortable and each one has a it’s own bathroom which was good. The kitchen is well equipped and has a homely feel to it. The two terraces are lovely, the small one was good for early morning sunbathing and the other great for eating together.

The location is good although a bit of a walk up from the beach! Altogether a lovely villa that I can highly recommend.

My experience with your company and the villa was very good. Well done!

It was everything we wanted

April 2019 - We were absolutely thrilled with our stay at Casa Lauro. It was everything we wanted. It was close to the city center and the beach and directly located on the main road. This was especially important for my 73 husband.

You guys were a joy to work with. You replied right away to any questions I had. I started working with you about 9 months ago and have been completely happy. Completely satisfied with your services and am grateful you were there to help.

Travel tips

Perfect Positano

April 2019 - This villa and owners were lovely.

One aspect that I had a hard time determining from the pictures and maps was if this villa was centrally located enough for me. I was hoping to be able to walk and find everything we needed. As it turned out the villa was perfectly located about halfway between the beach and the top of the hill where the bus stop is located. Each was easily reached by foot. Food shopping is done locally by foot as well and just around the corner.

Everything and more!

September 2018 - The Villa was everything and MORE!! We were 6 women and the Villa was very spacious and clean. If ever we are in Positano again, that's where we'll stay.

I was very happy with Summer In Italy. You always answered my questions in a timely and polite manner.

Thank you!

Spacious and clean

August 2018 - The villa is well maintained and clean. It is also spacious and well decorated.

The host was friendly and very helpful. The balconies are beautiful and have excellent views from the top.

Will definitely consider renting again with a group of 6 or more

July 2018 - We loved Casa Lauro. The location was perfect!

Excellent service and communication leading up to the trip. Summer In Italy were lovely to deal with during every aspect of the trip.

My family had an absolutely wonderful time at Casa Lauro

July 2018 - My family had an absolutely wonderful time at Casa Lauro and I would visit there again without question. The home is exactly as pictured, with breathtaking views and two perfect outdoor terraces. The A/C, though we only had to turn it on a few nights when we were lacking the typical cool sea breeze, was helpful as was the washing machine.

It is right in the middle of two major pathways - one right down to the center of town near the beach and the other to the smaller, beautiful Fornillo Beach. The home is high enough to have amazing views, but low enough on the hill for the walk up and down the stairs to be reasonable. There is a market and several restaurants right in the area just steps outside the door. We used a driver who came recommended to us so our travels to and from Positano were seamless. The check-in and check-out process was easy and on time so there wasn't one hiccup to our entire visit.

I thought Summer In Italy was fantastic - you were responsive and everything was taken care of on time and as promised. Your recommendation for Claudio Lucibello as our driver was excellent. He was a wonderful driver - knowledgeable, professional and kind. Thank you!

Travel tips

I enjoyed the villa very much

July 2018 - I enjoyed the villa very much. There were seven of us in our party and we had plenty of room and space and, for my first stay in Positano, it was in a good position and a great view.

Summer In Italy provide an adequate service and would use them again.

Travel tips

This villa was PERFECT!

July 2018 - Absolutely perfect spot for a large group. We had 8 people and it worked out beautifully! 4 bedrooms and 4 baths, 2 terraces overlooking the gorgeous sea - who could ask for more? This villa was PERFECT!

Close to restaurants, the grocery store (tiny but well stocked), and an easy walk to the beach. The villa itself was clean and well equipped, spread out and very private. We loved it!

Summer In Italy was easy to work with - the whole experience was a pleasure. Very easy to get in touch with - they were right there when we checked in and there again when we checked out. Very good company to work with. If I ever get the chance to work with them again, I will! All 8 of us in my party agree! Thank you for a lovely (and easy) experience!

Travel tips

What a fantastic large home in a great location!

June 2018 - What a fantastic large home in a great location! Great separation of bedrooms ideal for our extended family and we spent many evenings enjoying the views from the large terrace.

Travel tips

There was so much to appreciate about this lovely home

May 2018 - There was so much to appreciate about this lovely home during our five night stay. There were three couples and we each had our own space in the home with a comfortable bed and bath. The outside terrace with a large and colorful tiled dining table and chairs provided the perfect place to hang out, eat and enjoy the beautiful views. The kitchen was well stocked - you can tell there have been many delicious meals prepared there! Plenty of cookware, dishes and glasses and a big plus was the dishwasher and American coffee maker! This is obviously a family home and there were many personal items throughout that made it feel welcoming and homey.

The location is right off the street, which is a big plus, and if you stay on the street it’s a nice walk down to the main center of town, or you can take the stairs directly to the Spiaggia Grande. Positano was a highlight of our Italy trip and if we ever make it back again I would want to stay in Casa Lauro.

Everything you need for a lovely stay: wonderful views, peace and quite

April 2018 - Casa Lauro is a beautiful villa which has everything you need for a lovely stay: wonderful views, peace and quite. The villa has everything you need, apart from a safe which some people would like. It is situated on the main road down to Positano village and beach, where there are not a lot of steps but still a good walk down to get down there. As you know you have to get back up again, but as we were there for only 5 days we managed it. All in all a great time had by all as we were there for my son's wedding.

Summer In Italy where brilliant. They answered all our questions big or small and replied very quickly. If going to Italy again I would without hesitation book with them again, very professional.

Travel tips

Very nice property with many amenities

October 2017 - Casa Lauro is a very nice property with many amenities, including a full modern kitchen with full size range and refrigerator. The terraces were very pleasant with lovely plantings and good views.

Travel tips

We had a fabulous time in Positano

October 2017 - We all were amazed at the location, cleanliness, view, and lovely design of Casa Lauro. The art and books in the home added to its warmth and uniqueness. Never have been in a laundry room with a better view! We had a fabulous time in Positano.

Very impressed with Summer In Italy. Answered my emails and questions promptly. Polite and friendly. Thank you for providing us with a wonderful accommodation.

Travel tips

Perfectly located

September 2017 - Casa Lauro is a beautifully appointed house, perfectly located on the main road in Positano. It was within walking distance of the downtown but far enough to allow for peace and quiet.

We loved this house and the owners and managers were very helpful and accommodating. They were wonderful!

We found the booking and reservation process very easy. Summer In Italy were able to answer all of our questions in a timely manner, which we appreciated.

Travel tips

We really had a magical time!

July 2017 - Casa Lauro was a dream come true. It was more than perfect for our family. Everything was clean, spacious, beds were comfortable, the views were unreal and it felt like our home away from home. Our families enjoyed our stay so much we plan to come back and stay longer! We really had a magical time!

I honestly can't think of anything the owners need to do. They were so sweet and professional. It was an honor to stay in their home. Thank you!!

Summer In Italy has been so responsive and accommodating. I appreciate how you helped with providing great solutions when we had either simple or complex questions. Thank you for all your help and we plan to share your company with all our friends! They are all already asking how we found Casa Lauro.

Travel tips

Wonderful time and wonderful place

July 2017 - My family loved Casa Lauro. We all had a great time. There was plenty of room. Probably more than we needed! The balconies were very nice and there were flowers everywhere. The views from the balcony and from inside the kitchen and family room were awesome. If we didn't go out to a restaurant, we ordered food from the local grocery store a short walk from our place. Wonderful time and wonderful place.

Summer In Italy is excellent. Right from the start every question I asked was answered and Luca and everyone that answered me was prompt and courteous and couldn't have been nicer. In fact, in a few months I'll be contacting you to start helping me with another trip to Italy for 2018. Looking forward to it! Talk to you soon!

Travel tips

Loved the villa and the location

June 2017 - We so enjoyed our stay at Casa Lauro. We loved the spaciousness, the lovely outside terraces and the location. As another reviewer mentioned, the location on the main street was a distinct advantage. We were within a short walking distance to numerous great restaurants and a market.

The views are stellar and although you're located on a main street the villa was very quiet and private.

This was our first trip to the Amalfi Coast and having picked the villa after seeing the online pictures we weren't sure it would be everything it appeared to be. It was all that you see and more. Would love to go back with another couple or two. Just writing this review is making me nostalgic for our time there. We would definitely stay there again if we are lucky enough to find ourselves in Positano!

Summer in Italy was awesome! We asked them numerous questions before we arrived and they were always very quick to respond. This is so valuable when you're traveling internationally and aren't completely familiar with the area you're going to. We would highly recommend Summer in Italy to anyone vacationing in Italy and plan on using them in the future when we travel to other parts of this beautiful country.

Travel tips

Perfectly located

September 2016 - We absolutely loved our stay at Casa Lauro! The house is perfectly located right on a main road, which if you have been to Positano before you know how rare and important this is. Some homes may be 300 large steps up or down, but the front door of this house is located right off the main road yet it wasn't loud. The views were fantastic and terraces were both great. The home was also very well equipped with everything you could want. We will definitely go back!

Summer In Italy did a great job and was excellent with the communication process.

Travel tips

Wonderful place to stay

September 2016 - What a fabulous villa. Brilliant location. Views incredible. Even the laundry room has the most amazing view!! We were in Positano for my son's wedding and were a party of 7 adults staying at Casa Lauro. Some of the furniture are obviously antiques, beautiful floors and tiled bathrooms. An absolutely wonderful place to stay.

Luigi and Luciana, the owners, are a really lovely couple and must (quite rightly) be extremely proud of their beautiful home. They were extremely helpful, but never intrusive.

Found Summer In Italy by chance. Excellent service from start to finish. A great team of staff, who are all fluent in English, and who keep you informed of everything. Very professional. Would recommend them highly. I've been the in Travel/Aviation business for over 40 years, and were very impressed by their service and attention to detail.

Travel tips

Very spacious and well designed!

August 2016 - Casa Lauro is very spacious and well designed with privacy for 3 couples. Fully equipped kitchen and plenty of dining space in a fabulous outdoor terrace. The location is street level which makes unloading luggage a breeze. The villa is located at the beginning of the town very close to shops, restaurants and plenty of views. It takes about 10 minutes to walk to the heart of the town, all down hill. The steps to the beach are very close and convenient. We enjoyed out stay very much.

You were all perfect! We thank you very much. Hope to see you again sometime.

Beautiful villa

May 2016 - Beautiful large villa with great views in excellent location. Would recommend for large groups.

Summer In Italy were excellent and friendly.

Excellent

September 2015 - We had an absolute ball at Casa Lauro! The villa was clean, in a fantastic location in Positano and had amazing views!

Casa Lauro was even better than the photos and completely blew our expectations. We had a group of 6-7 stay comfortably, each room had its own bathroom so it was nice to stay together but still have privacy.

We would thoroughly recommend anyone looking for accommodation to stay here. We loved Casa Lauro and can't wait to come back!

We found Summer In Italy on the net, thank goodness for that! Our whole experience was fantastic. The pre-arrivals directions and advice was particularly helpful. We will definitely recommend Summer In Italy to our friends, family and hopefully we have the opportunity to use this site again soonI

July 2015 - Casa Lauro is very well maintained and the owner has put a lot of effort in keeping it in good order and to give guests feeling of home.

July 2015 - We had a great time staying there. It is spacious with great views and hosts are very nice.

We had a very wonderful experience with Summer In Italy from the booking to the detailed instruction of the preparation of trip. It was pretty accidental that I booked with Summer In Italy because I didn't have many other choices available with a last minute booking. Summer In Italy was hiding at the second or third page of google search result and I was lucky to have found a place through this web site. If google would have listed your site more in the front, it could have saved me more time looking.

Travel tips

Fantastic

July 2015 - We just returned from a month of travel and a week was in Positano. Casa Lauro is fabulous. The property is large, we were a party of 7 and everyone had plenty of space. The kitchen has everything you need to cook, the bathrooms are clean and nice. The sheets and towels are that of a home not a hotel.

Casa Lauro takes you away from the busy hustle of Positano. It's peaceful and easy to relax in. The bonus is that it enters on the street, its accessibility is excellent and its walk ability to the beach is good (about 10-12 min walk to the Spiaggia Grande di Positano, in town).

We, as a group, loved it and would return given the opportunity.

I felt we had great service from Summer In Italy.

Excellent

May 2015 - Casa Lauro was without a doubt the best place I ever rented for a vacation.

The view was incredible. The location could not be beat. It was just above the fray, but close enough to walk to everything, either by the winding street or by the stairs. But even better --- most of the best restaurants were right nearby.

The place is HUGE. There are four bedrooms. Three of them are big enough for couples. One is small for one. The terraces are amazing.

The owners are so kind and the manager of the property was easy to communicate with. They even recommended a taxi driver which was very helpful.

Summer In Italy was highly recommended by many of our friends. Your attention to detail and communication skills were excellent. It was an amazing vacation and an amazing villa.

July 2014 - We loved our stay at Casa Lauro and would recommend it!

For visitors who have not visited Positano before, I would highly emphasize the on-street entrance. Many other homes in Positano would require 50-100 steps with luggage! This home was very convenient, easy to access and had incredible views!

Summer in Italy staff was wonderful and helpful. Thank you!!

August 2013 - A great location, right on Viale Pasitea, with no stairs to the main door! Close walk to beach and shops.

We stayed in the villa with three other couples and we all had our own personal space. Great atmosphere with lots of books and other interesting things dotted around. Great views from all rooms.

We would stay here again.

Excellent

June 2013 - We loved Casa Lauro. The views were amazing. Most importantly, it's at street level. In Positano, many villas and hotels are hundreds of stairs away from the street. Being at street level was a huge plus. The walk to town and beach was beautiful and downhill. The walk back wasn't too bad for the grownups and kids. My 70 year old parents opted for the bus which they enjoyed.

The caretakers, Carmela and Luigi, were a pleasure too.

When visiting the Amalfi coast definitely stay in Positano! This villa was perfect! Dealing with Summer In Italy was great too!

Travel tips

Fantastic

June 2013 - This was a wonderful place for a group to vacation. We had both our grown children and some friends and there was ample room for everyone.

The villa is very large and all bedrooms have privacy. Kitchens very well appointed and if you are a reader in any one of several languages, you will be in heaven! Beautiful books everywhere! If you want to keep the doors open all the time to enjoy the amazing view, remember your bug spray!!! And you will want to keep the doors and windows open because the view is surreal. There was AC in the villa but we didn't turn it on even once.

Go and enjoy!!!

June 2013 - We really enjoyed our stay at the villa. We thought it was perfectly situated within a small walking distance from everywhere!

The house was beautiful and very cozy and homey! It felt really luxurious!!

You've done a great job, with information and contact since we made the reservation. Very professional!!

Fantastic

May 2013 - Casa Lauro was an excellent vacation property. It's location makes it easy to get to and easy to walk to the various restaurants and shops of Positano. While the trip to the beach is lengthy and I'm sure during high season, crowded, there are steps that can be taken which get you off the beaten path.

Three of the bedrooms are very nice, the 4th is very small.

Overall, we had an amazing vacation, in the comforts of Casa Lauro. The hosts also have a relationship with two restaurants for a small discount and this helped.

July 2012 - Casa Lauro is a beautiful, homely villa with stunning views and out of the general hustle and bustle of down town Positano. We had plenty of space and everything was very thoughtfully arranged. We loved it.

To and from the beach there are over 500 steps [local bus available]. We were all a lot fitter after 2 weeks!

Summer In Italy offered excellent service. Everything was very efficient and all the staff were helpful and friendly. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble. Would certainly book with Summer in Italy again and have no hesitation in recommending them.

June 2012 -

Casa Lauro is a true gem in Positano. It is clean, bright and very spacious.

The villa has windows in every room that look out over the Mediterranean. The terrace is lovely. The kitchen has everything one needs. The bedrooms are on the sea side and we all slept well.

The location is perfect. A nice walk through the streets to the beach. There are good restaurants very near by and a grocery store within easy walking distance.

The owners and their manager are so helpful and very generous with advice and help.

There were six of us and there was plenty of room. We all hated to leave and all agreed that we are going back to the Villa again.

Your website is very good and user friendly. You always responded promptly and answered all my questions. Your information about the villa was exact. Thank you.

August 2011 - Casa Lauro is a large, beautifully decorated villa in a great central location in Positano where you can walk up or down the main road to get everywhere. It's an easier walk than taking the steep uneven steps. There is a nice family run food market down the road.

There are two amazing terraces, with excellent views and a large custom table to enjoy a meal. We had 8 people and everyone had enough privacy and places to read and relax.

We loved having a clothes washer, although it was smallish to serve 8 people. Kitchen is large and well equipped. We enjoyed the many books in both English and Italian. We read a few! No need to carry heavy books to Italy! We felt wonderfully surrounded by beauty, art and intellectual pursuits. The air conditioning worked well and was welcome after a day walking in the summer heat.

Summer In Italy did a great job. Grazie.
