Villa Scarpariello Review (Amalfi Coast, Italy)

If you are heading to the Amalfi Coast Villa Scarpariello is the place to stay.  I have definitely found heaven on earth.  It was the first villa that I rented.  I was in charge of putting the trip together, so it had to be perfect.  Villa Scarpariello surpassed every expectation I could have had.  First let me say that the pictures on line are EXACTLY what you get.  The villa sits on a cliff overlooking the Mediterranean (I could stop right there).  It contains 10 apartments ranging in size from 1 bedroom to 3 bedrooms.  Every villa has an ocean view.  The floors are beautifully tiled and the rooms are elegant, yet comfortable.  The kitchens are equipped with everything you need to make a fantastic dinner.

You share the pool, grounds and the ocean with the rest of the guests, but each apartment is very private and we never heard anyone being noisy or felt that we didn’t have our own space.  I went and picked the fresh figs from the trees outside our door to have with our cheese and prosciutto.  I also had fresh lemons and limes at my disposal.  By the way, the lemons do not taste the same in Italy.  They are so sweet you will swear you have never had a lemon before.  And did I mention they are the size of Oranges!

Piero and Dominick, who run the place, are incredibly friendly and helpful.  I am going back there again this year and can’t wait.   If you are looking for the vacation you will never forget you should go here.  It is truly a little slice of paradise.  It was so amazing I almost want to keep it my little secret!
