Villa Grà - Encantadora villa con vistas al mar Grà

Villa Grà was the perfect place to home-base for our week on the Amalfi coast. The villa is located more-or-less in the center of Praiano, countless stairs above the waterfront and seemingly equally countless stairs below the Path of Gods trail, but within walking distance of numerous great restaurants and trails. The view from the main bedroom, yard, and large patio is breathtaking. The villa is creatively decorated, and well furnished and maintained. While there were only two of us staying there, there was plenty of room for another couple. We ensured we witnessed the spectacular sunrises from the patiodining table each morning and enjoyed winding down on the patio each night, listening to the sounds of the town and the nearby church bells marking time. Our host, Fransesco, was super helpful, offering suggestions and arranging transportation when we needed it. We could not be more pleased with Villa Grà and the SMAAC team.

Attractive well equipped apartment in a residential area near the top of the town of Praiano with plenty of space to sit out and good sea views. Praiano suited us well as it is quieter than its nearby neighbour, Positano, but still has great views, is attractive and has lots of lovely friendly good restaurants and bars within walking distance ( albeit uphill home). A local bus service operates from the bottom of the steps up to the property which helped in getting around and there is also a small grocery store close by. SMAAC who manage the property provided an amazing very useful digital information pack and can arrange boat trips and transfers etc. They were very responsive to any queries.

Notre séjour a été merveilleux!

Apartment was very nice and as described, very clean, well equipped and comfy beds. We would highly recommend this apartment. Host is very helpful.

We just returned from a lovely visit to Villa Gra and recommend it highly. The SMAAC website provides a wealth of information which is enormously helpful prior to departure and throughout the stay. Praiano is a gem away from the hubbub of Positano and Amalfi, with a handful of very good restaurants nearby. There are 40-50 very manageable, gradual steps to reach the Villa. The villa’s setting is very peaceful and the view of the coast from the terrace and from the master bedroom is spectacular. The villa decoration is exceptional with Murano light fixtures throughout, and with furnishings in the colors and style of the region. The equipment is state of the art, and in fact we had to read the manuals provided to address an error message on the AC and unlock the cooktop. Both Francesco and Rosa in the SMAAC office were very quick to respond. We used the villa as a base camp from which we hiked the Path of the Gods, and ventured over to Amalfi for the day. The family and dog in the adjacent property are a little noisy on occasion but as we were away much of the time, it was manageable and on one occasion SMAAC kindly phoned them. SMAAC was very helpful in arranging transport to/from the Villa to Naples. We give SMAAC very high marks for its professionalism and responsiveness, and recommend the Villa for an enjoyable stay.
