Reviews of Casa Perla

Perfect location and amazing view

October 2024 - We loved our time at Casa Perla. The location is perfect -- very close to the SITA bus stop and walking distance to many wonderful restaurants -- and the view from the terrace is truly amazing.

Michele, the owner, was so very helpful.

Cute apartment in a perfect location

May 2024 - We loved our stay at Casa Perla! Comfortable, cute and convenient location. Especially love that it had a small market and great restaurant nearby.

Summer in Italy was great, I will definitely go to you first if/when we plan another trip to Italy!

The view is unbelievable!!

May 2024 - The owner met us at the casa, showed us around, answered all our questions, provided great recommendations for restaurants. The view is unbelievable!! Wonderful stay in Positano.

If you would like to live like a local, then Casa Perla is an ideal place for you to stay

September 2023 - If you are planning a vacation to Positano and would like to live like a local, then Casa Perla is an ideal place for you to stay.

Aside from the spectacular views of the Positano coastline from the terrace which is ideal for your morning coffee or late afternoon pre-dinner cocktails, the home itself is a real gem in that it is tastefully decorated with a local Italian flair. The home was spotless upon arrival and everything worked exactly as it should.

One key benefit to Casa Perla which is not always mentioned is its location. It sits on a main road within steps of a convenience store (that sells fresh fruit, vegetables, wine, beer, salami and cheeses), café/bar, butcher, and bus stop (Chiesa Nuova). Don’t underestimate the importance of staying at a home located on a main road close to a bus stop in Positano versus somewhere in between two roads where you must walk up or down hundreds of steps (at times with suitcases and bags) to reach your temporary home.

The homeowner, Michele is an exceptional host who is literally at your every beck and call to address any questions you might have about anything to do with the house, Positano, or surrounding areas. Upon arrival, Michele spent about 1 hour with us to show us where everything was located and how everything works (AC, TV, Washer, coffee maker, stove, etc.). Michele also provided us with a very good lay-of-the-land and how to efficiently navigate your way through Positano and other locales along the Amalfi coastline. Michele’s advice was spot on and he helped us to truly experience Positano from a local’s perspective rather than as an aimless tourist.

We absolutely loved it

September 2023 - We absolutely loved it and Michele (owner) was nearby and very helpful! The home is located on the main road so you don't have to haul your luggage up and down steps like so many others had to AND it's very nearby the local bus so getting down to the sea was pretty easy. Views are incredible and furnishings were comfortable.

Communication with Summer In Italy was great and they were very helpful. I would use them again in the future.

Spacious, immaculately clean and very well equipped apartment with a magnificent view

September 2023 - We loved our stay at this beautiful apartment. Spacious, immaculately clean and very well equipped with everything you could want. We used the terrace a lot as the view is magnificent. It was a great place for breakfast or aperitivo.

The location at the top of the hill made it easy for transport and of course meant that we had a lovely view. Would definitely stay here again.

Communication with the host was first rate and he was super helpful and friendly.

What a beautiful location and a fantastic "home away from home"

September 2023 - We loved Casa Perla. What a beautiful location and a fantastic "home away from home". Did not want to leave.

We could have stayed for a month and been ever so content with this home. Beautiful views, everything you need in a home, great proximity to bus stop, grocery store, etc.

I would like Mr. Michele [the owner] to know that we think his property is absolutely the best we have ever been lucky to spend time in Italy. He and his wife know everything about making travelers comfortable and being available to help when there are questions. He was an absolute delight. His home is so clean, smells so good and is fabulous. We wish we were his children so we could come stay for extended periods of time. Our daughter, Desirae, was in contact with him on a daily basis for recommendations for places to dine, questions and just his insight on the Amalfi Coast. He was quick to respond and ever so generously helpful. We loved staying in their home. What a warm welcome from a wonderful man!!!!

Summer In Italy was our first time. We felt like everyone was wonderful reaching out to us and getting back to us. We will definitely do Summer In Italy again. Wonderful recommendations about drivers (we loved our drivers, provided through Amalfi Coast Transfers), your helpful responses, and your tips on the area, etc. Thank you, thank you.

We loved it!

July 2023 - What a view!! While in Italy we stayed in 5 towns... All really nice homes, but none with a more beautiful view than this Positano gem. AC worked very well and the kitchen was loaded with goodies. It’s located right next to great restaurants, number of markets and the stairs down to the beach.

The owner was easy to reach and easy to deal with.

We really enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend it!

The perfect place in Positano

June 2023 - This was the perfect place to stay in Positano. We enjoyed being near Bar Internazionale and the local market, with easy access down to the beaches and restaurants.

The property is beautifully maintained, and the owner was very helpful and caring.

We have only had good experiences with Summer in Italy, on six trips.

Lovely home, helpful owner!

June 2023 - Lovely home, helpful owner! Very charming “cottage” with pretty views, some good restaurants to walk to and a cute market across the street.

Very easy to work with Summer In Italy!

My family and I absolutely LOVED Casa Perla! The location was excellent

May 2023 - My family and I absolutely LOVED Casa Perla! The location was excellent.

We saw many people having to carry luggage up and down steps but at Casa Perla you are able to unload your luggage at the front door. This is a HUGE luxury in Positano.

The home was spacious and had everything we needed. The terrace was our favorite spot as it was large and had the most amazing sea views! Hope we can return some day and stay even longer.

Our host made sure we knew where everything was and answered any questions we had about the area. There is truly nothing I can think of that would improve the property. We loved everything about it.

I found Summer In Italy online and was able to find the perfect property for our stay. I would highly recommend Summer In Italy to anyone as every thing went smoothly from start to finish.

Better than the pictures!

May 2023 - I stayed here with my two daughters for six nights (mother/daughter trip). The apartment was more amazing than the pictures show online.

We used the kitchen to cook breakfast, lunch and a few dinners. The balcony was such an amazing place to have our morning coffee and meals. The view was stunning and we loved every moment we spent at our Positano home.

Michele [the owner] was an amazing host and helped us make dinner reservations and anything else we needed.

Summer in Italy was a great site to book our accommodation through. I will use it again and recommend to friends traveling to Italy.

June 2022 - We loved Casa Perla! Although it was on the main road and a little noisy when sitting on the terrace, the view and convenient location made up for it.

Also, the interior was perfect - well stocked kitchen with breakfast treats - comfortable living room with some English channels on the tv, and a comfortable queen bed!

I loved your website that showed all the accommodations on a chart with the details - particularly the number of steps. VERY important in Positano, even for the younger set. Descriptions very accurate. Also, the staff was very patient with my questions via email and the final information sent with our rental voucher was helpful. We had a dream vacation. Thank you!!

Great house, wonderful view!

October 2019 - Casa Perla is a great house with wonderful view! On street level with a couple of little markets just around the corner.

The owner of the house was always very thoughtful, and made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend.

Very happy with the service Summer In Italy provided. The instructions we received were very detailed and helped us a lot to prepare for the trip. Also very nice to have cell phone numbers available to call in case there was any problem with the house.

August 2019 - We were very pleased with Casa Perla. Stunning view from the terrace!!! I would go back in a heartbeat!

The owners were wonderful.

Very good

July 2019 - Casa Perla is a lovely apartment owned by lovely people. Away from the centre of Positano which avoids the hustle and bustle but the centre is easy to reach via local bus. It is close to a busy road but this did not bother us.

The owners recommended several things to do/ where to eat and all suggestions were good ones! Fiorella and Michele are great hosts and very helpful! Keep up the good work!

Would we return? Yes! But when it is cooler and not peak season.

October 2018 - We loved staying at Casa Perla!

The place was lovely - better than the pictures. Nice kitchen and very comfortable large bedroom. The bathroom had a great shower. The view was fabulous! The location was great - very close to buses and great restaurants. It is right on the main road so there was a little traffic noise but we hardly noticed it.

The owners were so nice and helpful.

Everything was wonderful, so nice that I didn't want to leave! We loved staying here and highly recommend it!

September 2018 - We spent one week at Casa Perla and had a fabulous time.

We had many meals on the beautiful terrace and loved the gorgeous view of the bay. The home was supplied with so many items that we had not planned on. Coffee, tea, sugar were at our fingertips and really saved. Although the apartment was located on a very busy street we never really noticed the noise. Both Michele and Fiorella [the owners] were incredibly gracious and hospitable.

I have recommended this beautiful apartment to friends.

My son is the travel agent that booked our experience at Casa Perla. Summer In Italy made our visit so easy, thank you for your professionalism!

September 2018 - Casa Perla was perfect in every way.

A beautiful and authentic Italian house perched up above the picturesque town of Positano.

The house has a terrace that is hard to leave and is conveniently located near the bus stop.

It really was a home away from home.

Keep up the good work! It was an amazing stay.

September 2014 - We loved Casa Perla... The house is so clean, the bed is very comfy and the whole time we spent there was fabulous... In the home there is everything one could need and the owners will ask you to treat the house as your own home... It's very cozy and the view is amazing!! We spent all our time on the balcony just watching the world go by...

The owners are a fabulous couple very friendly, kind and helpful. They are really lovely and generous people who make guests feel very welcome in their wonderful home full of charming things!!

We had a fabulous time in Positano and Casa Perla was just what we wanted... It is the perfect spot to see and hear all that goes on in the town!! We would certainly go back to Casa Perla...
