This beautiful B&B is located on the hills of Furore, just 20-30 mins from Amalfi or Positano. Surprisingly, the views were not the best part of the stay; the family that hosts was. They were the sweetest locals who treated us like family from the moment we arrived. Upon check in, we told “Nona” as we came to call her that we were gluten free. The next morning at our prepared breakfast, we found they had gone to the market to acquire 3 different gluten free bread options for us to enjoy our meal. They made us fresh cappuccinos as we enjoyed breakfast on the balcony overlooking the sea.
We decided we wanted to rent a car so we could experience Italy as the locals would, so “Nona” set us up with a local business who had the best rate we had seen and also delivered the car directly to the house for us.
There are cute family restaurants up the hill in Furore if you don’t want to go 30 mins out for Amalfi or Positano meals. We enjoyed Da Nicole, about 7 mins from the stay and an easy drive.
Overall, we felt safe, clean, and comfortable the whole time. It was nice to escape the bustle of the busier tourist spots while still being centrally located. I would recommend renting a car from a major city (ex if you land in Naples) as local transport via taxi or uber will cost you far more than simply driving yourself, as long as you’re comfortable doing so. Day trips to Sorrento, Positano and Amalfi are simple from...
Read moreA very nice location, high in the mountains near the coast. The view from the location is beautiful. ||The room and the entire location was OK and very clean. Mattresses were poor, much too hard. Breakfast is very much OK, served with own products like eggs and vegetables. Leaving early in the morning for departure means no breakfast or any kind of compensation. You need to understand Italian as the owner and family do not speak English except the daughter but she was not really there. ||Wi-Fi with Apple devices did not work for us and connecton issues could not be solved. Data receiving and calls via Telecom providers at the location is limited due to low provider signals. ||Agerola, 25 minutes of walking, is the location where many moderate restaurants are available and a starting point for many very nice hiking tracks. ||Furore itself has not really something to offer except the nice paintings at many house and the...
Read moreI saw one of the most beautiful sunrises of my life from the balcony, and it was much more affordable than other options I looked at on the Amalfi Coast. If you're traveling without a car, like I was, it is easy to reach by bus from the city of Amalfi (about half an hour and there is a stop right outside the B&B). It is also really well positioned to do the Path of the Gods--an easy fifteen minute walk to the start of the path. The room was spotless and comfortable. Try to book with the hosts directly if possible. My Italian isn't great, so I wrote to them via WhatsApp and that worked out perfectly to reserve my room and get instructions on how to arrive. The real highlight was the hospitality from the owners, however. They are some of the kindest people I've ever met. Not to mention the breakfast was delicious. I couldn't have enjoyed my stay more! Thank you so much...
