Luxury rentals in South Italy

Villa Elizabeth

The sights, sounds and scent of the sea are a feast for the senses at Villa Elizabeth. Perched on the Amalfi Coast near Conca dei Marini, this gorgeous vacation rental offers a spectacular location for an Italian getaway. Reserve its three bedrooms for a holiday with family, an escape with friends or even a sun-kissed honeymoon. Get close to the sea on the villa’s multiple levels of private terraces, which spill down the hillside toward the water. There are lemon trees and vegetable gardens (to whose produce guests are welcome), an outdoor kitchen with a barbecue, a seasonal saltwater pool and a swimming deck at the shoreline. Inside, a blue and white color scheme is a nod to the seaside location of this luxury property. The tiled floors were handmade in Vietri and flow throughout both living rooms and the fully equipped kitchen. Both sitting areas have TVs, and Wi-Fi is available in both the indoor and outdoor living areas. The three bedrooms at Villa Elizabeth are divided between two separate “cottage” areas; all three have double beds and sea views. The first cottage has one bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and one with a shared hall bathroom, and the second has a primary suite with a shared hall bathroom and its own terrace. The second cottage also has an additional double bed, if extra accommodations are needed. The villa is set just off the road between Amalfi and Positano, a short distance from the scenic beach at the Fiordo of Furore, making it easy to spend a day exploring both towns and the glorious coastline in between. It’s also possible to rent a boat and leave right from the villa’s sea-level deck on an excursion to Positano or Capri. Copyright © Luxury Retreats. All rights reserved.
