Perfect place for us
October 2024 - Il Rifugio was the perfect place for us to spend two weeks on the Amalfi Coast. The view is amazing, it is centrally located in Praiano, has all the amenities we needed, and the host provided excellent recommendations for dining and water guides.

Enjoyed the absolute beauty of the view and peace and quiet of the location
June 2023 - After Rome and Venice, we stayed for 6 nights of our honeymoon and enjoyed the absolute beauty of the view and peace and quiet of the location. Multiple terraces overlooking the sea and a private pool. With a fully equipped kitchen and markets within walking distance we enjoyed cooking many meals in the villa.
The bus stop is very close should you want to visit other towns on the coast without staying in the chaos of Positano or Amalfi. We interacted with mostly locals and truly enjoyed the less touristy vibe. We took a boat cruise to Capri which was lovely and hiked Path of the Gods from Praiano.
Outstanding villa and hosts. Highly recommend.

Amazing place
October 2022 - The most amazing view!!! The place was clean and quiet. The grounds and pool are spectacular a lot of love goes into this property. The market is very close and we made breakfasts at the house. Top three properties we have rented. A+++
The place is amazing the people are attentive. Keep doing what you are doing.
I had never used Summer In Italy but we will ONLY use Summer In Italy from now on, we travel to Italy each year. Great communication and responsiveness.
Travel tips
- We walked down the steps to various restaurants for dinner I recommend you cab back after drinks and the steps which are the Amalfi Coast. The parking lot next to the beach is the best place to grab a taxi.
- We also took a boat trip which leave daily from the beach to Capri for a day trip which was amazing.

Loved our stay
May 2022 - We loved it! We did 5 nights and it was so peaceful and quiet. Way better than staying in Positano.
Giuseppe, our host, was amazing as well as Alex the grounds keeper!
We will use your service again. Super helpful.
Travel tips
- Don’t take taxis… learn the bus schedule. A taxi to Positano was 40 euro.

August 2019 - Absolutely fantastic, beautiful views, will return but do not know when.
Everything went well, no complaints.
Travel tips
- Hill climb at the end of the night hard going after lovely food and drink but there is a small local bus that will take you to the villa for just over a euro.

Fantastic
June 2019 - We enjoyed Il Rifugio greatly, one of the highlights of our trip. Very comfortable accommodation and excellent kitchen and bathroom.
Good quiet location, requires some walking or taxi to get to most sites. Parking is a big plus.
Travel tips
- If coming by car, reserve the parking spot.
- Supermarket within walking distance and so no need to buy food on way there.
- Closest restaurant, Kasai, is excellent, we felt the best in Praiano. It's just down a flight of steps from apartment.
- Very obliging electric golf buggy taxi driver Paolo.
- Be sure to go to One Fire Beach.
We are in the process of updating the availability calendar of Il Rifugio.
We would love to assist you securing your dates. Please be in touch for personal advice from our staff!
