Reviews of Casa Mimosa

AMAZING stay!

July 2022 - We had an AMAZING stay at Casa Mimosa! This is our 4th trip to Positano and this is the best house we have stayed in. The views are insane, the location was ideal (very few steps). The house itself is really well done. Just Perfect.

We had the chance to meet the owners and they were great!

Our booking and check-in process was seamless. We liked the house and the price.

Loved the location and proximity to everything in Positano

June 2022 - We loved the location and proximity of Casa Mimosa to everything in Positano and would definitely recommend this house to our family.

Daniela and Giovanni [the owners] couldn’t have been better to us during our stay. We frequently visited their market for some food for breakfast and the wine and limoncello.

We spent 2 weeks at Casa Mimosa and enjoyed every day

October 2019 - We spent 2 weeks at Casa Mimosa and enjoyed every day. The villa is as per the web site photos. The location is right in the center of Positano, within easy walking to shops, ferry terminal and bus stops. Highly recommend Casa Mimosa as a great place to stay and explore the Amalfi Coast.

Daniela [the owner] is the perfect hostess and she goes out of her way to ensure that you have a great time. She was extremely helpful in explaining where to go and what to do on the Amalfi Coast to make the holiday entertaining. Many thanks to Daniela and Giovanni for all their help and hospitality.

Summer In Italy web site is very good, and dealing with them was a breeze. Everything was planned well and confirmed with hours.

Thank you Summer In Italy!

April 2019 - This apartment is beautiful, clean and with magnificent views of the sea and the village of Positano. The panoramic view is as spectacular from the inside as it is from the private wrap around deck outside. The bedrooms are specious and the beds are quite comfortable. The large gate at the entrance offers a sense of privacy, while also being very close to shops/restaurants with only a 94 step hike (which is nothing in Positano).

The owners also own a great little market/wine shop with one stop shopping, just a stone’s through away The are there at 7:00 a. M. through the early evening and eager to help out with questions. Check-in/check-out was smooth.

Thank you Luca at Summer in Italy and owner Daniela!

Perfect location, probably one of the best in Positano

October 2018 - Perfect location, probably one of the best in Positano. The views are incredible being just above the cathedral, the beach and the mountain side yet you don't have to deal with too many stairs. Casa Mimosa is very clean and very sunny with 2 excellent bathrooms and well kited out kitchen. The terrace is wonderful with little table and sun lounges.

Good check-in and advice given on arrival. Lovely people.

Excellent service from Summer In Italy, friendly and well organised with all the right information given, thank you.

Thoroughly enjoyable stay

September 2018 - A thoroughly enjoyable stay on this property. We were made to feel at home. Amazing place and restorative for the soul.

Perfect for our family

August 2018 - Casa Mimosa was perfect for our family of four. The bedrooms were very spacious and the bathrooms were newly renovated and very nice. The living room was small, but we did not spend much time in the house except to eat and sleep!The view was spectacular out the front of the house and we would definitely return.

Casa Mimosa was in a perfect location - close to the beach and shops and very convenient to the restaurants. There were plenty just below the villa and for a short walk up, there were many, many other options.

Daniela and her husband [the owners] were so nice to us and were able to help us with whatever we needed.

We used Summer In Italy a few years ago and were very pleased so we booked through you again and were very pleased again.

There can't be a better place in Positano

May 2018 - Casa Mimosa was one of the nicest, cleanest, and most convenient places I have ever stayed. In my opinion, there can't be a better place in Positano: it is right above the beach, restaurant area, overlooking the church. We loved our stay! It was part of a vacation that we will never, ever forget.

The owners, Daniela and her husband operate a store nearby stocked with everything from fresh fruit, cheese, great selection of wine, and everything else you might need! They are so friendly and helpful.

What you see on line is what you get plus so much more!

July 2017 - FANTASTIC rental. So much to say about this gem of a rental. Just returned from an eight night stay. First time renting on the Amalfi Coast yet five previous times renting an Italian villas. This was my 11th vacation to Italy in the past 17 years and my absolute favorite. I left feeling as though I was more of a local than a tourist.

About the property: only being about 90 stairs from shopping, restaurants and the water is key! Especially when compared to other rentals in Positano. The less stairs the better being key for some. The views are spectacular. We left the large windows open day and night and enjoyed the AC in both bedrooms when sleeping at night. The house was spotless when we arrived. White walls, great accent colors and nicely appointed. We dined out two meals a day so the small kitchen was perfect for our needs. Very nice bedrooms and bathrooms. And I loved the blue tiles in the smaller bathroom. The views are spectacular overlooking the beach and church and Positano above. I could go on and on! What you see on line is what you get plus so much more!

Daniela and her husband [the owners], who work at a near grocery store, are so helpful, nice and engaging. And their to go sandwiches are killer! Plus their shop has everything needed from food to wine to fresh fruit to personal items like bandaids and sunscreen. And their open from 7:30 am - 10 pm and reasonable. The experience in working with Daniela was first rate. Having a bottle of Prosecco in the fridge when we arrived was a nice touch! We encountered a challenge with the keys/door lock sticking and Daniela immediately gave us another set. She also took the initiative to come with a locksmith to change out the lock the next morning so that we wouldn't be inconvenienced. A nice touch!

Here are all the GREAT parts my friend and I experienced through this Summer In Italy (SII) rental: SII's customer service, communication, transactional process and quality of property. The tips and descriptions on where to go upon arrival, etc. SII are first rate. My best experience yet. Thank you to their first rate staff!

We would stay there again in a heartbeat

June 2017 - We loved Casa Mimosa. A beautiful, bright apartment. Everything was modern, a beautiful bathroom and kitchen. We would stay there again in a heartbeat and recommend it to our friends.

Daniela [the owner] was very helpful. She even had a bottle of water and a bottle of Prosecco waiting for us in the fridge and reserved the Porters for the day we left.

Loved it

May 2017 - Loved it.

Location was excellent

September 2016 - We loved staying at Casa Mimosa. The apartment is only 90 steps down to the bottom of Positano to access the beach and the shore front. Location was excellent. There was a stage set up on the beach and local dancers performed every night and we had the best seats in town. Gorgeous balcony, well appointed rooms the bathroom to the first bedroom was a little small but this was a minor issue. It was big enough for four people. Kitchen was small but well equipped and adequate for our needs. Would highly recommend.

Daniela our host met us and helped with our bags. She showed us around the apartment and said we could contact her anytime. She worked at the local wine and grocery store so was at our disposal whenever. Daniela was extremely helpful and we loved Casa Mimosa.

Absolutely amazing!!!

July 2016 - Book Casa Mimosa as it was absolutely amazing and worth the price!

A huge thanks!

Magical place!

June 2016 - We all loved Casa Mimosa, from it's location just above the beach, with not as many steps to how spacious it was, right through to how pleasant and helpful its owner was. The apartment was nicer than we expected!

Daniela, the owner, made it even more enjoyable with her lovely friendly approach. Simply thank you, we felt so looked after and loved every minute in Positano and in Casa Mimosa. Magical place.

Service we have received from Summer In Italy is simply superb. From the very start, with every question and every email they showed what it means great customer experience. Huge thanks to you all, both Luca, Valeria and Melanie. First class experience!

Perfect!

June 2016 - We absolutely loved everything about Casa Mimosa! For our young family of 5 it was perfect! The apartment was spotless. Close to the beach which was exactly what we were after not to many stairs!! Fruit and champagne on arrival was a bonus! Perfect!

Daniela our host was always helpful and friendly. Nothing was to much trouble for her!

Everything about this booking from dealing with Summer In Italy to our accomadation couldn't have been better. We loved our stay in Positano and would highly reccomend Casa Mimosa and Summer In Italy to anyone. Great service couldn't be happier! Thank you, we look forward to coming back one day!

A fabulous week!

May 2016 - We spent a fabulous week at Casa Mimosa! The views are amazing and the apartment is spacious and comfortable. The beach is literally steps away - also shops, restaurants, hiking trails and boats! An ideal location to base a true Amalfi Coast experience!

Outstanding service!

Excellent communication and outstanding service from Summer In Italy. I would recommend your company to others!

July 2015 - We absolutely loved Casa Mimosa.

I don't think you could get a better location in Positano. So close to the beach so only a few steps to climb at the end of each day. An amazing, million-dollar view. And beautiful, recently renovated bedrooms and bathrooms.

Better than a hotel - we would stay again in a heartbeat.

Daniela is a gracious and lovely host and her shop, just at the bottom of the stairs, is very convenient.

We were recommended Summer In Italy by friends. We found the "chat" service over the Internet incredibly helpful when booking. All my emails were answered promptly and I found your company to be extremely efficient and helpful. Very impressed. Would recommend to friends and use you again.

June 2015 - Amazing stay, perfect location, beautiful modern accommodations, very clean, the owners were so nice, helpful and close by if we needed anything.

June 2015 - We loved our stay at Casa Mimosa.

The view was to die for. We thoroughly recommend this casa.

Daniela [the owner] made us feel so welcome and thoroughly spoilt our son with little treats when we visited her store!

Summer In Italy made the process easy and communication with them was a breeze.

Excellent

October 2014 - Casa Mimosa was so comfortable inside and clean.

The huge windows in the living room will give you a full panoramic view of the Mediterranean Sea. We were able to wash our clothes and hang them on a provided rack on the balcony, they dried so quickly... It was so nice to have that feature.

Steps to the house are about 85, but wait!!!! That is about 100 - 150 steps less than most other places in Positano!!!!!!!! Some are even higher. Positano is a beautiful town on a hill and you need to understand that. When that is clear, your vacation will be great.

Our view from Casa Mimosa was so incredible that we were instructed to lock the fence on the terrace at all times because people walking up the stairs try to come in to take pictures of the view. We had the greatest view of all of Positano!

The owners were incredible people... They want to help at every corner and in every way. I want that people know and understand that they are really good people. Also, they own the store under the property and are so personable and helpful. Their store is so nice inside, deli and wine selection are outstanding and they also have amazing fresh fruit and a variety of things needed for your stay.

I will be staying at Casa Mimosa again on my return to Positano.

Summer In Italy suggestions, explanation of what to expect and directions was 100% on point. Thank you. I am so happy that I stayed there Luca. Thank you for everything. I am recommending you to everyone that I know.

Fantastic

September 2014 - Casa Mimosa was perfect, amazing view and great location.

The apartment itself is clean and comfortable with huge windows to take in that breathtaking view. It is right in the center of Positano so only a few steps (relatively speaking) to the shops, beach and restaurants but still very private and quiet.

We were traveling with our three children so it was great to be so close to everything without too many steps for the kids (and us!).

Would stay here again and thoroughly recommend to friends.

We were very happy with Summer In Italy service. Thank you.

September 2014 - We could not have picked a better place to stay.

The view, proximity to ferries and buses, nearby shopping and market made Casa Mimosa a great choice.

We had plenty of towels and a hair dryer. Shower had plenty of hot water for all. Beds were very comfortable and we had plenty of storage to unpack. There was even the TV to catch up on some news. The coffee maker was great and we had all the dishes and glasses we needed.

We only ate breakfast at villa, on the private patio with a gorgeous view of water and town. The view was so beautiful that tourists frequently stopped right outside our patio to take pictures.

Our landlord was so helpful in providing some guidance of where to go and what to see. We shopped at the landlord's market for fresh figs and other fruit, fresh bread, sausage and cheeses and anything else we needed was there.

There was actually entertainment each night at a stage by the harbor that we could enjoy from our apartment.

We looked on line and found Summer In Italy web site - the pictures and description were true - you helped us decide on place with great view - we had everything we needed and had a great vacation with our family! You were easy to work with and a reliable site. It made payment easy and you provided us with anything we needed. You do a great job!

June 2014 - We loved our stay at Casa Mimosa in June 2014.

The views from the terrace and the living/kitchen were spectacular. The bedrooms were roomy and simple. The location was exceptional. 90 stairs and we were right in the midst of Positano shopping and restaurants and close to the beach.

The owners were very helpful and kind. They spoke English well.

Overall, we would highly recommend Casa Mimosa. It was perfect for children too.

Everyone at Summer In Italy was very helpful and nice. All of our questions were answered promptly and thoroughly. It was truly a pleasure dealing with you.

Very good

October 2013 - Casa Mimosa is ideally located. It is reasonably spacious for a family of four. Very clean and well appointed.

Daniela and her husband [the owners] were very helpful and it was reassuring to know they were close by. We have been dreaming about our Amalfi Coast holiday for years. We will now dream about it for many more.

Our stay was thoroughly enjoyable! Would recommend.

September 2013 - The view was unbeatable. I also liked the location. I you have to climb 92 steps to get there but that is nothing compared to the 400 steps others had to climb!!

July 2013 - We had a very good vacation in Positano and very much enjoyed Casa Mimosa and would recommend it.

Casa Mimosa is a small apartment very close to the pebble beach Spiaggia Grande, about 100 stairs and a short walk that is easy compared to other rentals. The terrace overlooks the eastern half of the city and beach as well as the church Santa Maria Assunta with some of the best views in town. Tourists regularly stop for pictures on the stairs just outside the terrace which can be an annoyance but a testimony to the beauty you have at your convenience.

The living/dining room boasts 2 wall length panels of windows with great views of the sea. The kitchen is typical for many apts in Italy: small, cramped, but reasonably appointed. The bedrooms are roomy but A/C in only one of the rooms and inadequate to cool the house so nice for the people who sleep in that room but can be uncomfortable for those in the other room. We kept the windows open 24/7 and that worked well to keep the house bearable, especially with the door open during the day. The bathroom is sufficient but the shower is small. The apt was clean and tidy on our arrival, there was a bottle of water and a bottle of Prosecco awaiting us in the refrigerator when we arrived. Best of all, the owners for the rental run a small grocery store/wine shop/sandwich shop nearby and they are extraordinarily friendly and helpful.

Very good

June 2013 - We loved Casa Mimosa. It was quaint and had awesome views. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony with the view of the Amalfi and the mountains.

Daniela was a wonderful host and helped us with any questions regarding sightseeing or purchases.

The entire experience from beginning to end was great. I would definitely recommend this Casa and seek it out to stay there again.

October 2012 - The location of Casa Mimosa is awesome.

The floorplan is really big bedrooms and a small living room, which I would prefer a big living and small bedrooms. However the location and views far made up for the quirky floorplan. The unit has a well appointed and efficient kitchen.

The location is quite central with restaurants and shopping and the beach just at the base of the stairs.

The owners are very gracious and accommodating and are available if you need something.

I would recommend this apartment and would stay here again. This unit is big enough for a family or a couple people traveling together. It was much larger than we needed (only 2 of us). Overall we really liked the apartment and were happy with our choice to rent here. The location couldn't be much better.

If you come here by public transportation, I would suggest taking a boat, they run all summer and part of the fall from Sorrento or Salerno. We did not have a car, and it wasn't missed here. Public transportation was very reliable, including boats.

October 2012 - Lovely location, great views and good apartment. The website was a good representation of Casa Mimosa. Clean, tidy and well equipped. Picking up the key was easy, the owners spoke English and were friendly with no issues with the security deposit.

Very good

September 2012 - Casa Mimosa was perfect for us. The view from the balcony and the living room was spectacular!

The kitchen was adequate and had all the kitchen gadgets we needed. We didnt cook much but everything we did need was there when we looked (moka coffee maker, wine bottle opener, plates and glasses).

The beds were a little on the hard side (as they are in all of Italy), but we had no issues sleeping.

There is only one AC unit in the 2nd bedroom. We were concerned about this issue but it didn't turn out to be a problem. We simply closed the doors to the bedrooms when we left for the day to allow those 2 rooms to cool down before we came home for bed.

The bathroom was adequate. The one issue we had was that the shower is small and the floor got pretty wet after we all showered. We used the washer in the kitchen to wash the floor mat and simply hung it on the line to dry. Not a big deal for us, but if you are looking for a large luxurious bath, you won't find it here.

The location was perfect. Right in the centre of town. There are 94 steps up to the villa. And the view! I just can't get over how perfect it was! People were stopping outside the gate to try to take a picture of what we got to wake up to every morning!

The owner/family were very gracious and welcoming. Mama checked us in. She spoke limited English and we spoke VERY limited Italian but we were able to check in without issue.

We met the daughters later. They spoke English very well and were able to give us a little history of the town.

Overall I would recommend Casa Mimosa to a friend who is looking for a great value, a spectacular view and a convenient location but is willing to deal with the quirks of a small vintage Italian villa.

July 2012 - Casa Mimosa is a really great place to stay.

It is in a fantastic location, close to all amenities and provides some wonderful views of Positano.

It is a very nice accommodation - clean, practical and ideal as a base for our holiday. We felt very lucky to be in such a good location and really enjoyed our stay there.

The owner was very helpful and friendly and I would definitely stay there again.

Summer In Italy were fantastic - you were all so helpful and it was a pleasure to book with you. I had complete confidence from the first contact to the last - thank you! It was by chance that I found you via the internet, but you would be my first choice for Italy in the future.

May 2012 - Loved being so close to the village and not having to walk as many stairs as the rest of the tourist. The view from the apartment, which is nothing modern but all you need, was to die for.

When we were leaving they even had a very special bottle of Limoncello as a gift for us (yum)

October 2010 - We absolutely loved our stay there. The view was exactly as the pictures show it. I stood staring out the huge windows taking in the view of the beach, restaurants and church every day and night - there was always something to look at.

The location was unbeatable! It was a 1 minute walk down to the beach, ferries, shops and restaurants. Having now walked around Positano I am so glad we did not stay up the hill somewhere. You cannot begin to imagine what a "hill/mountain" it is until you have been there.

I would not hesitate to stay there again and to recommend it to someone else. The only thing some people may not be too fussed on is the bathroom -- it was OK..but the view and location overruled all else for me.

I was very happy for the professionalism of Summer In Italy and felt we were very well informed. We have been back home for less than 2 days and I am already planning a return trip for next year (hopefully). I will check out your website again.

September 2010 - Casa Mimosa has an extraordinary view of Positano and is in an ideal location. I have stayed in Positano numerous times, and I am very familiar with the Amalfi Coast in general. This was by far my best experience yet.

The apartment is at the top of 92 steps, which is nothing compared to where most apartments sit. Plus, you will need a little exercise after all of the gelato! But those steps take you up above the immediate "neighborhood" and give you the ideal view of what is happening in town.

The apartment looks directly down onto the beach, and also the beautiful little church where a wedding happens at least once a day in good weather. Church bells ring daily and that sound is so lovely. Jazz floats down from a nearby nighttime club, if you are sitting on the terrace. No sound penetrates the bedrooms, if you keep your doors closed. Or you can leave them open and enjoy falling asleep to the sounds of the ocean waves and wind mixed with the tinkle of conversation from the restaurants below. It is extremely pleasant and relaxing.

The owners are absolutely gracious and do not hesitate to come if you need something. They are nearby, as they operate a small grocery store just at the bottom of those steps.

The apartment is quite spacious. We were 3 adults and a 2-year-old, and we were very comfortable. We could have easily fit another adult or two.

It was an exceptionally good experience for us, and we still miss seeing the family that owns the apartment. We look at our pictures of the apartment and those we took of the gorgeous view every day and wish we were back there now.

Thank you Daniela and family. We really appreciate your wonderful hospitality.

July 2010 - Enjoyed the stay a beautiful villa. Only drawback was the steps. I had 2 small children with me so they weren't too happy, but fine for adults.

Summer in Italy were very easy to deal with and nothing was any trouble for them. Very professional

June 2010 - Casa Mimosa was fantastic. The view incredible. The location perfect, just 100 yards to the beachfront. And decor really comfortable.

I loved the 1950 original Italian Cubist artworks but they were no match for the panorama over the beach.

Rosa [the owner] was friendly and very helpful.

It made for a perfect family holiday!

September 2008 - Casa Mimosa was a most wonderful location with a gorgeous view from both the terrace and dining/kitchen area. The villa can be seen on many post cards and can be easily be spotted from the beach!

From the property we enjoyed watching many, many weddings as they gathered in the piazza of the church.

The general grocery shop is very nearby, and a young man is eager to assist you by delivering your purchase up all those steps! (We always tipped him for his trouble.)

We also enjoyed "special seating" from the kitchen when the beach below became the site of a dance presentation for a few evenings.

Casa Mimosa is large enough for a family of 5, but may require a little adjusting for 2 couples. One bedroom has a double bed and no air conditioning. The other room has A/C, but twin beds, which could be pushed together. In the kitchen there is no microwave and no electric coffee maker, but who needs those in Italy?

We had a great experience and the caretakers and owners were extremely nice, wonderful people.

I would definitely refer Casa Mimosa and I would stay there again.

I had a great experience with Summer in Italy from the beginning. The website is very efficient and contains nearly every feature I wanted. Once I inquired, all correspondence was handled quickly, efficiently and in a pleasant, professional manner.

August 2008 - We had a great time in Casa Mimosa.

The location and view were superb.

The owners were very friendly and Positano was very charismatic.

Having the supermarket so close is also very handy. They make lovely fresh rolls to take away. And always have a great selection of fresh fruit available. Ideal for a picnic on the beach.

I will definitely book my holiday with you again. The on-line information was very helpful and the photographs were great for helping you decide which type of place to stay in. Also the amount of information provided is so concise.

June 2008 - We had a wonderful time in Positano. Casa Mimosa is located in a very accessible location.

It is only 92 steps from the base of the village, so very close to all the shops and restaurants. The view from the balcony is wonderful, though the balcony is very sparse with only a table and 4 chairs. The balcony offers no protection from the sun and heat.

Casa Mimosa is very modestly fitted out inside. The 2 bedrooms are large, one with Queen bed, the second with 2 singles (that we joined together to make another Queen room). A third single is in with the Queen Bed. We moved this single bed out into the "living room" to provide a sitting facility as there are no chairs/lounge to sit on. The space is shared with kitchen/kitchen table and entry area. This makes the accommodation difficult as no central living area.

Bathroom is very modest.

The views are outstanding from Casa Mimosa and it provides a very central spot from which to enjoy Positano.

The Cathedral is just below so we had wonderful views of the daily weddings taking place.

Thanks for being so easy to book with. Information you provided prior to arrival made it all easy.

May 2008 - This was our third stay at Casa Mimosa. My friends and I absolutely love the villa.

One can not find a more perfect location. The view is amazing, day or night. It's easily accessible and very comfortable. It's been perfect for our group for several years!

Daniela is a wonderful owner. She's easy to get in touch with if there is a problem and she's always courteous and very helpful. We have enjoyed seeing her and her family, year after year.

I have nothing but praise for Summer In Italy. My friends and I have utilized your services for 4 years (and will continue to do so) and our experience has been first rate! Grazie per tutto!!!

September 2007 - This was the most amazing location! I had absolutely no idea the villa was located right off of the town square and practically on the beach. The two large picture windows overlooked the sea and all of the action below.

Do not hesitate to book! This was the best decision I could have made!

The owners were very kind and willing to help us with finding our way around, booking a car service, etc.

I would book again in a heart beat! You will not be disappointed!

Thank you for being so prompt with responses to emails. I really felt like I could trust booking my villa through you. You made it a pleasant experience, and I would highly recommend your services.

July 2007 - Casa Mimosa has an excellent location, you can easily reach the village and the beach not having to walk to many stairs. From the windows in the kitchen/dining area there is a beautiful view of the sea, the beach and the village. The apartment has no living room and the two bedrooms are very dark with no windows, so the apartment it self is not very cosy or charming. There is no comfortable furniture but we moved one of the beds into the kitchen and others around and it helped. At the terrace there is only one iron table and 4 iron chairs - we missed some sun beds.

Positano is like a postcard very beautiful, charming and for pedestrians only. We parked in a parking lot by the end of the road for 20 Euro a day. There is only a small public beach area, so you will have to be prepared for renting a sun bed and an umbrella for 10 euro per person a day.

Some of our biggest experience was renting a boat with a captain for a day, dining at all the restaurants and enjoying the view especially at night. We also saw the lovely Ravello, Scala (with a charming hotel with a breathtaking view "La Margherita"), Amalfi, Sorrento and Capri. At Capri we rented a motorbike - that was fun.

We had no idea the location would be as perfect as it was.

Positano is our new favorite place and we would definitely stay at Casa Mimosa again.

We found you on the Internet - everything about the process was perfect! Loved that we could pay by credit card (other properties made us do a wire transfer) - you guys are awesome!

Excellent

June 2007 - We loved the casa.

The space itself, the views, the furnishings and especially the art work.

The walk from the beach through the tiny village up the stairs to our villa is enchanting.

Excellent

June 2006 - This was an excellent place to stay.

It is always great when the place you stay adds to your vacation, Casa Mimosa did exactly that.

Excellent

May 2006 - We fell in love with Casa Mimosa last year, and couldn't imagine staying anywhere else in Positano. So when planning our next holiday in Italy, Casa Mimosa was the logical choice.

The view is unbeatable and the accomodations are perfect for our needs!

We have booked with Summer in Italy for the past 3 years and will continue to do so. I have had nothing but pleasant experiences over the years and I have recommened the service to several friends! We love you guys! Thanks for everything!

October 2005 - I spent an a great deal of time selecting our apartment and was pleased with my choice. The pictures on the web site were identical to the place.

We arrived late (11:00 pm) and the owners were accomodating, even carrying one of our pieces of luggage up the stairs for us.

The location was perfect. High enough to enjoy the view, but low enough to get to the beach quickly and even pop in and out of the apartment, if needed.

We moved the table in the kitchen to be under the window and loved eating breakfast there every morning. We rarely sat out on the balcony because we had such a spectacular view from there.

Excellent

September 2005 - We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Casa Mimosa.

The most outstanding points about this rental are the kindness of the owners and the incredible location. We could view all the activities on the beach and near the church. Be sure to take binoculars!

Positano is a beautiful place and we also enjoyed side trips to Pompeii, Naples and Sorrento.

Be prepared for lots of steps and an incredible view!! Even though it takes 93 steps to reach the front door, it seemed to us that this rental is as close to the beach as any other in the town.

Great service. Your webpage and e-mail responses are the best! We will recommend you to all our friends!

Excellent

June 2005 - We have traveled to Italy for the past 4 years, spending a total of 8 weeks. Our stay at Casa Mimosa and the town of Positano was by far the best week and the most enjoyable experience!

The staff of Summer in Italy and the keyholder for Casa Mimosa could not have been more accomodating and professional.

We will definitely rent from Summer in Italy (this was our first experience with your company) next year.

Thank You!! Ciao!!

June 2005 - Excellent location - very central in Positano - great views. Owner was there to help us to setup.

Vey accessable (only 88 steps!).

Very good facilities - kitchen was well equipped even though we ate out a lot.

We were very impressed with Positano and would return to Positano and Casa Mimosa again.

Excellent

May 2005 - We fell in love with Casa Mimosa. It is the PERFECT location for those who want to be right in the center of Positano.

The view is absolutely amazing day and night.

The villa is easily accessible, spacious and comfortable with charming furnishings. Everything one needs is provided.

The owner was very nice and helpful in making arrangements for us.

We have nothing but good things to say about Summer In Italy. We have used your service in the past... and will continue to do so. We've had nothing but great experiences. The staff goes above and beyond to provide advice and help to make your stay in Italy as hasslefree and nice as possible! We look forward to working with Summer In Italy in the future!

December 2004 - The owner of this apartment lives very close by and was helpful and friendly.

The view was fantastic - over the beach, ocean and piazza outside the Church.

It was wonderful to watch the locals meet on Sunday morning outside the Church.

I booked through Summer in Italy because of the variety of apartments available. I liked the fact that there were numerous photographs attached to each apartment/villa to help me get an idea of the place. The price was another factor.

The correspondance with me was very helpful, clear and thorough; emails were sent confirming arrangements and I could even check my arrangements online. I couldn't have asked for better service from the agency.

Excellent

October 2004 - Beautiful setting in Positano. Loved Casa Mimosa, absolutely perfect for a group of 4 friends to go away and spend time on the beach, drinking, eating in bars and relaxing.

Very clean appartment. Very well described by the web site.

Loved the restaurant at the top of the hill (when at the beach front facing out to see walk along the path to the right and theres a lovely restaurant looking over the sea).

You web site is very helpful and informative. Will definitely try to be back again!!

Excellent

October 2004 - We enjoyed Casa Mimosa it very much! The view was spectacular and the house comfortable.

The owner was very helpful and friendly.

The location and view were excellent. The church bells were mildly bothersome when we were trying to get past jet lag but that was not a big deal.

Excellent

September 2004 - Beautiful sea view. Very romantic sounds of sea waves at night and peal from the Cathedral. Great location - beach, best restaurants (if you need a giant marvelous portion of Zuppa Napolitana in "Chez Black" or "Buca di Bacco") and marina (if you need a boat to Capri, Sorrento, Naples or Amalfi) are in 1-2 minutes walk.

Spacious and really clean rooms. Very friendly and helpful owners.

We really enjoyed communicating with "Summer in Italy". Momentary answers on any e-mail, maximum of useful information, everything was great!

Excellent

June 2004 - Casa Mimosa was lovely, it was situated in a perfect spot overlooking the ocean. The beach front, shops, restaurants and amenities are easily accessible.

We were a bit concerned about the number of steps that lead up to the property but really this was no hassle and definitely worth it because of the view. We had a very enjoyable stay at Case Mimosa.

One thing was that there was no separate lounge room, there was one separate bedroom and then the other bedroom was also the lounge room - it wasn't a real issue as we spent most of our time out and about and there was a table that was on the balcony.

The owners were lovely, we went to their shop everyday for our supplies, they knew who we were and spoke to us very kindly, they were very helpful with information on local attractions and booked a taxi for us when we departed.

The property was also very clean and tidy which was great and they provided a good service with clean linen and towels.

Summer In Italy was a great service, the website provided lots of helpful information when choosing the villa and also emails were prompty responded too regarding the choice. We chose a villa with Summer In Italy because of the choice of villas, the website which was easy to understand and the prompt response with questions and also a comparable rate.

Excellent

June 2004 - Casa Mimosa far exceeded our expectations. The apartment is very well furnished and spotlessly clean. Daniela [the owner] and her family were delightful and we enjoyed the Italian delicacies and fresh fruit and vegetables from their well equipped shop.

Positano is beautiful and thank you all for making us feel at home in your country.

Excellent

June 2004 - Location was superb, overlooking the beach, the sea and the church, especially the weddings!

The owners were extremely helpful and were always available. Clean, very well presented and very homely. A great place to stay.

We got excellent service from a very friendly Company - would not hesitate to recommend to other people.

Excellent

May 2004 - We LOVED Casa Mimosa!. Both the apartment itself and the family we rented from. They assisted us with reservations and had great suggestions for us in the vicinity.

I would definitely rent Casa Mimosa again and feel very confident in recommending it to others. I especially appreciated how CLEAN the apartment was.

Oh yeah, and the VIEWS are marvelous. :-)

I have already recommended your agency to several of my friends and family. I hope to rent from you again the next time I visit Italy!

Excellent

May 2004 - We very much enjoyed Casa Mimosa. It is perfectly located in the town centre (92 steps up) so you could easily access the beach, shops, be part of the action or soak up the atmosphere. The view, from the balcony and from the picture windows inside, is special.

The apartment was equipped with everything we needed. It was exceptionally clean, decor fresh and pleasant - plenty of space in all rooms including the bathroom, bed comfortable.

Daniela and her family [the owners] were great - very welcoming and helpful. And it was comforting to know Daniela spoke English.

We chose Casa Mimosa because of the website review by another Australian family. We chose well!

Your website and booking process was excellent and seamless. I appreciated being able to check your company details, location, security, the option to fax, etc so I knew who I was dealing with. You provide an excellent service.

Excellent

April 2004 - Casa Mimosa is a great appartment in an ideal location. The location is perfect being right next too the beach and eateries. The huge windows and high ceilings give a wonderful feeling of space.

Daniela [the owner] and her team were very welcoming and very helpful. It made the experience very enjoyable.

This was the first time we have hired a villa for a holiday. Summer in Italy made the experience very stress free and the villa was priced very competitively compared to others we looked at. The owners of the villa were also very helpful which added to the experience. Finally you helped us book our train tickets back to Rome over the phone which would have been too much for our improving Italian. This was beyond your duties but greatly appreciated. Finally your site was easy to use and search for properites. Thanks...

Excellent

June 2003 - Casa Mimosa was great, it catered for our family of four more than adequately. there was ample room in the bed rooms and the living area although not large was very comfortable. Although the apartment was not air conditioned the cool afternoon breeze was welcome and cooled down the apartment well.

It's position was wonderful and even thought there were many steps up to the front door its proximity to the beach and shops and restaurants was marvelous.

Perhaps the best aspect of the accommodation was the wonderful people who owned it together with the local store. They immediately made myself and our family very welcome and could not have been more hospitable and helpful.

If we are staying in the region again we will most certainly contact you regarding our accommodation.

Many thanks for your most professional and friendly service.
