Self catering villa in Sorrento, Italy

Amazing hosts and beautiful villa

October 2024 - Giulia [the owner] and her co-host Lorenzo were amazing. Very responsive and reliable.

When we arrived we were greeted by Salvatore and Giulia and immediately felt comfortable.

They went out of their way to give us history on the villa, great recommendations and even went to get us snacks and drinks with their personal vehicle.

Their villa was beautiful and well equipped with everything listed. Definitely would stay here again!

Beautiful property perfect for families

August 2024 - This property was beautiful and perfect for my family of 9.

The pool overlooked the Amalfi Coast and was perfect for relaxing and cooling off after a long day of visiting tourist spots in the area.

Hosts were extremely helpful and helped us book reservations for entertainment, and even helped arrange for transportation to all of our excursions.

We are so happy we booked this beautiful home while we were in Sorrento!

We loved the villa!

June 2024 - It was a beautiful place. We felt that we were away from all of the crowds and noise. The rooms were clean, nice and everyone had their own room and bathroom!

The caretaker was super nice and kept in touch with us the entire time. He provided drivers for us several days. One evening he and his wife prepared fresh pizzas for us! All of these things were not free, of course, but he was so helpful to us and we would definitely recommend the villa to future travellers.

Travel tips

  • We did day trips to Pompeii, Isle of Capri, and the Amalfi Coast.
  • I was so glad that I had booked the trips and drivers prior to our stay.
  • Getting taxis was a problem at times because Italy was super crowded, and we were up on the mountain.

Beautiful property with breathtaking views

June 2024 - Absolutely beautiful property. The views are breathtaking especially during sunset. The house is set up with everything you need to cook and the rooms are very spacious.

Each room has their own private bathroom plus an additional bathroom and shower downstairs. The host had great communication and even reached out prior to our booking to say hello and make sure we had their number.

When we needed a taxi scheduled they helped arrange that. It’s walking distance to Sorrento, however it’s a very steep descent down stairs that takes about 20 minutes. I can see this being challenging for elderly- so keep this in mind! We did this walk once down into town and it was very beautiful (even did it with a baby carrier), but otherwise taxis were very easy to arrange.

Overall we loved our stay and will definitely book again when we come back to Sorrento!

Beautiful villa with stunning views

April 2024 - Beautiful villa with panoramic views of the entire coast, Sorrento is easily reachable in 10 minutes, the rooms are spacious and very comfortable, all with bathrooms!

The common areas such as the kitchen, living room, patio, and veranda are very beautiful and equipped with every comfort. The environment is very clean, and the staff is always available to help with our requests on what to visit in the area.

The real highlight is the outdoor area, a well-maintained garden despite the season, a very panoramic pool, and then the view...it left us breathless, we seriously thought about sleeping outside on the sunbeds, under the starlight and the lights of the peninsula that looked like a nativity scene!

We will definitely come back, great location to visit the Sorrento coast but away from traffic, and in a very quiet area, the property has everything you need, including a wood-fired oven where they organize cooking classes. See you soon!

August 2023 - Wow, what a view totally Divine. The villa was a superb size for 8 of us. Swimming pool was lovely and immaculate. Brilliant location as we spent a day in Amalfi, Positano and Capri.

Every evening driving home adored our view. We did walk to Sorrento one evening ~ have to be super fit.

Thanks again for a magical week.

Summer In Italy, very professional well done guys, a pleasure dealing with you all.

Trust Carmine[the caretaker], he's the king of Sorrento! Would recommend his pizza night, the best pizza we've ever eaten! He also organised many amazing trips for us, including beautiful wine tasting. All very reasonable price.

Good price!

Villa Futura has the most breathtaking views of Sorrento, Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius

June 2022 - Villa Futura has the most breathtaking views of Sorrento, Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius. When we got out of our cab to see the view we literally all gasped.

The garden and patio were a great size and all 8 of us would have lunch and dinner together around the beautiful large table under the pergola. It was stunning. The villa itself is beautiful and spacious with the living room and bedrooms being particularly comfortable and well presented.

Carmine, who looked after us and managed the villa was wonderful and helped with anything we needed, he was always responsive, friendly and full of charisma. Carmine arranged for a dinner to be cooked for us at the villa by the most fantastic Filomena! This was the most delicious meal I have experienced and Filomena's energy and kindness made it all the more special.

Travel tips

  • We did walk down to Sorrento to do our shopping, while it takes 20 minutes to walk down the hill it will take a solid 40 minutes to walk back up and it is steep! If you are willing to take this on make sure you are fit and have sensible shoes! Other than that you will either need to get a taxi or rent a car to pick up your groceries.

The views are outstanding

August 2019 - Villa Futura has plenty of room and the views are outstanding. Wonderful view of the Bay of Naples from the pool and patio. We had a wonderful time.

Summer In Italy were very helpful with my holiday requirements and also in booking Villa Futura. If I holiday in Italy again I would definitely use them. Excellent Company.

Travel tips

  • Do not hire too large a car as the road to the villa is narrow in places.
  • Definitely take a private boat trip. The property manager of Villa Futura organised a boat trip to Capri for our party which was one of the highlights of the trip.
  • The village of Sant'Agata sui Due Golfi is a short car ride away and you can obtain shopping when you first arrive.
  • There is a large supermarket not far from Pompeii. There are also fairly large supermarkets in Sorrento. We found one which also had a car park.
  • The Foreigners Club in Sorrento is a nice place for lunch.
  • Mr Gregory Restaurant is also very nice and is reasonably priced.

June 2019 - We had a fantastic time. Peace and quiet away from the hustle and bustle of Sorrento. The road leading down to the villa was very steep and narrow but nothing more than you'd expect with the villa nestling into the mountainside.

We had hoped for a slightly longer pool. More of a plunge pool than a swimming pool. The villa was well equipped, beds comfortable and plenty of hot water, just not in the shower on the ground floor.

The website was really good and everything went according to plan.

Travel tips

  • Nowhere is within walking distance. A car is a necessity.
  • Stock up at the large supermarket as you leave the motorway from Naples. Make use of the freezer.
  • Pompeii is a must.
