Description

Villa Barbaro is a luxury villa which can accommodate up to 24 people. It is located on the hill between Amalfi and Atrani, in a unique panoramic position: looking from one side you see Atrani, with its intricate maze of houses built on top of each other, from the other side you see Amalfi and its blue sea. The villa is isolated from the noisy traffic, but at the same time is a short walk to the centre, immersed in lush lemon gardens. From the main road you climb a flight of steps (100 approx) till the gate of the Villa: once arrived you will feel repaid for the effort: the sun, the blue Mediterranean sea, the view will enchant you. In 2010 lift from the main road is planned. The villa is new built on the original XIII century monastery of St. Francesco monks. There is also a small walking path going up on the mountains once used by monks for their spiritual retreats. The villa is built on three levels, and you can access from the ground floor or from the top floor. Everything is new and the atmosphere is very elegant: all interiors are decorated with barrel vaults painted with flowers and subtle colours, original wooden beams refurbished, hand painted ceramic floors with bright colours and volcanic stones contrasting the immaculate white walls. Main entrance is on the top floor, where are located all the common areas: the living room is sumptuous. Great arches and columns create three different areas in the large open space living room, equipped with white sofas, coloured armchairs, tables and chairs, ensuring a relaxing indoor stay. French balconies open in Amalfi direction, and offer a stunning view over the sea. From the living room there is a small flight of steps leading upstairs to a small double room with big terrace overlooking the sea, the ideal spot for a couple of bride and groom in case you think to Villa Barbaro for your wedding! Same from the living room you access to the kitchen and, trough a big sliding glass door, to the main terrace. The kitchen is big and bright, with professional stove top and oven, which allows both a great chef and a basic cooker, to prepare fantastic dishes. On one side you will find a very long built-in kitchen, decorated with Vietri ceramic tiles and wood shutters. The kitchen is complete of all cooking tools and equipment, traditional oven, microwave, large refrigerator, washing machine and dish washer. The kitchen communicate with the terrace through a French door. The view from the terrace is breathtaking: it lies over the picturesque Atrani, in a high position, and dominates the tower bell, the majolica cupola, the small coloured houses and the sea. It is the ideal place for pleasant moments of relaxation, kissed by the warmth of the sun and the heady scent of the lemon orchards. And you too will feel the emotion of being suspended between sky and sea. It is very large, with part of it in grass and part in ceramic tiles. From the beautiful swimming pool you can admire a wonderful view over the sea and the town of Atrani. The terrace is equipped with sofas, sun beds and stone benches. Also there is a big roof on a side covering a dining area, which can accommodate up to 30 people, equipped with stone benches, tables and armchairs, and a wood oven to cook a fabulous pizza. At the two lower floors there are the bedrooms: All guestrooms are newly built, equipped with LCD screen, air conditioning and heating, decorated with high vaulted ceilings, wooden beams, hand painted ceramic floors with bright colours and volcanic, as for the rest of the villa. Each guestroom has its own private bathroom, both with bath or shower, hairdryer, mini bar, balcony or window with front sea view. On the fist lower floor there are seven guestrooms, while on the ground floor just four, and allow also a private entrance from the main gate. Outside the lower floor another beautiful terrace with a hammock suspended over the glorious view. Some bedrooms allow an extra bed (up to 4 extra beds no extra charge).
