Reviews of Villa La Gattaia

Perfect for our group

June 2023 - This villa was perfect for our group of 6 adults. We spent many evenings on the terrace enjoying the incredible view.

The kitchen was well-equipped for what we needed. Bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and exactly as pictured.

Luca was very helpful and knowledgeable. Everything was very well-explained up front. No surprises. Highly recommend.

July 2022 - We had a very enjoyable time. Luca was extremely helpful and went over and above to ensure we had a pleasant stay in Praiano. Highly recommend for families who desire space and a great location.

Amazing views, ample bedrooms and lots of large shared spaces

June 2022 - Villa La Gattaia was perfect for our family vacation on the Amalfi Coast. The views from the large terrace were amazing. Ample bedrooms for each family member and lots of large shared spaces inside and out for the family to enjoy together.

Mr. Luca [the property manager] was awesome. He helped us arrange a boat tour to Capri and was always available to provided us with any information we needed.

Loved Summer In Italy. Easy and prompt communication. We booked Villa La Gattaia for the shared gathering spaces in the home and on the terrace for our family and multiple bedrooms for each family member to have their own space. It was exactly what we were looking for, perfect!

The villa is amazing and in a fantastic location of Praiano

October 2019 - The villa is amazing and in a fantastic location of Praiano. Close to restaurants and market for food. The bus to get to other towns on the Amalfi Coast was just up the road.

Villa La Gattaia had private space for all four couples traveling. Two beautiful terraces to relax on and have dinners. The villa is old but has lots of character. I loved that we had a great place to stay in and it was not in the busy part of the Amalfi Coast like Positano or Amalfi.

Luca [the caretaker] was an amazing host and helped us organize a charter boat and recommended places to shop (he even did some shopping for us to get local chicken and beef).

Great service from Summer In Italy. They were really responsive in answering my questions. Also the links for transportation were great as well. I would highly recommend using Summer In Italy to book places in Italy.

Perfect location

June 2019 - Perfect location, not so many steps.

Excellent location with outstanding views

September 2018 - Villa La Gattaia is in an excellent location with outstanding views and outside terraces, which we spent the majority of our time. A restaurant and the bus stop were very close by too! I would recommend Villa La Gattaia!

Luca, the caretaker met us and was helpful in acclimating us with the villa and surroundings. He directed us to the nearest grocery store, and even drive our groceries to the villa!

Views are absolutely amazing

September 2018 - Villa La Gattaia is an amazing villa furnished with beautiful old artifacts and art. The views are absolutely amazing and we are so please you recommend Praiano to us as this is a beautiful little village set apart from bustling tourist towns of Amalfi and Positano. The local restaurants are amazing and although many steps we embraced the exercise and were thoroughly delighted with our villa.

Don't change anything, Villa La Gattaia is just perfect. Thanks for organizing our Capri boat trip and delivering our cold beer placing it in the fridge.

Thank you so much Luca for your great advice on Villa La Gattaia and staying in Praiano, we are so glad we weren't in the middle of the bustling towns. Everything was just as you promised and we had a fabulous stay, many thanks.

The outside space was superb

August 2018 - Our family very much enjoyed staying at Villa La Gattaia. The outside space was superb and we spent all the time we were at the villa in the fresh air. We didn't really use the inside areas as the weather was so good the whole of the holiday. We all thought the bathrooms could do with a little upgrading but they were all usable.

I felt the booking process through to arrival were excellent and I was always kept informed.

August 2017 - Really great villa with a lot of character. It was a fun place to stay!

Pros: great view, a lot of space, nice terrace. The air-conditioned rooms were very pleasant. The young people who stayed in the non-AC rooms didn’t mind, but it would be good to make sure everyone is comfortable with the arrangement in advance. Cons: the buses were so full we couldn't get to Ravello! And we had dinner reservations/tickets to a concert. The two downstairs rooms feel very separated from the rest of the house.

The booking agents were excellent, I really appreciated all your help in finding the place! I will highly recommend you.

Highly recommend.

May 2014 - We all of us had a very good experience in la Villa La Gattaia.

We greatly appreciate the nice view an the possibilities to eat at different levels depending on the time of the day.

We had a bit of trouble with the dishwasher and we would have appreciate a good knife to cut the bread an the meat but it was so little trouble... A great place, we will talk about.

Very peaceful place and we felt in confidence. Thank you.

July 2013 - My family of 4 had a wonderful stay at Villa La Gattaia in July 2013. It could easily accommodate twice that many comfortably and was more room than we needed, but we like to spread out and location is important to us.

The villa is nicely situated about halfway between Praiano and the marina at La Praia. It has spectacular 360° views looking out toward La Praia.

The upper terrace is a lovely spot to sit and read or enjoy breakfast.

Luca [the caretaker] was an excellent host from the time we arrived to the time we left. He gave us many excellent restaurant suggestions and was helpful with excursions.

The staff at Summer In Italy were perfect. Everyone was very helpful and accommodating.
