Overall: We truly enjoyed our stay at Villa Flora! The owner was gracious and quickly fixed the few minor plumbing problems we noticed when we checked in. The view was fabulous, the outdoor area was splendid, and we enjoyed our ocean access too! All the rooms were comfortable and the décor was amazing! Enjoyed Most: I enjoyed the views, the gardens (lemons, limes, figs, table grapes), and the Mediterranean décor, tile floors, lots of shells in glass cases, and white and blue walls. The pool and the ocean access were wonderful too! Enjoyed Least: The neighbors were noisy on several nights, once until 11:20 PM. There's not much that can be done about that though. Surrounding Area: We enjoyed the neighborhood grocery store, the sea walk to several restaurants, and the proximity to Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast! Nearby Events or Locales: Masse Lubrense is the nearest small town. We were able to walk to the harbor area of Masse Lubrense where there were several seaside restaurants. Tips or Restaurants: We had one meal catered by the cooks while we were staying at the Villa Flora. It was excellent, one of the best meals we had the whole 3 weeks we were in Italy!!! It was also an economical option, quite a bit less than we were spending at restaurants. I would recommend that future renters consider having these two ladies cook at least two or 3 meals. It's not every day you can eat in your swimsuit under a beautifully draped portico table with friends or family! The restaurant '... Michele' was also very good with great views of the marina and the ocean. Directions: The directions were good. I would add that the last turnoff is near a large pine tree - and that the road down to the villa is very narrow. Tell drivers to proceed with caution between the parked cars and the rock walls - and to keep a lookout for the convex mirrors which can warn you of oncoming traffic around the hairpin curves in the access road. We did have a GPS which was helpful. Check In Out: Check in and check out was very smooth.
