Villa GiuGiu, incredible sea view in Sorrento

Amazing view and all the modern comforts plus an extra ordinary host, Claudia. My wife and I greatly appreciated the up to date furnishings including the comfy bed and well appointed kitchen. But that is not all! Claudia herself is a rare find in how generously she shares her food suggestions, day trips, and staff from her husbands 5 star hotel to make arrangements and more. The pantry is well stocked and food and wine await you on arrival. The town of San Agata is special though it sits between Sorrento and Positano on a hill top with drop dead gorgeous views of Sorrento and Mt Vesuvius. While driving here is a challenge, there are good walks to take and a great path into the quaint town. Take all of Claudia’s suggestions on food. Especially the pastry shop and the trip down to Nerano for the famous zucchini spaghetti that lives up to its reputation for greatness. Il contuccio was good but I suspect the rival restaurant there also likely good. What a great find.

Beautiful Villa just outside sorrento. Claudia completely stocked the kitchen with food and the home with everything you need. She was so accommodating and helpful the entire trip.

I actually planned our entire vacation around this villa based on pictures and period reviews and the only regret i had was not staying longer! We stayed 4 nights. Claudia welcomed us and showed us around. The villa is perfect. A short walk to the center if santagata, an adorable little town overlooking Sorrento. This was the nicest property I have ever stayed at. Lots of extra touches and welcoming items. Yhe view is spectacular. Cooked a nice breakfast with fresh food left in the fridge. Also picked some fresh herbs and made pasta for my family. A huge unexpected added bonus was a the availability of the full concierge service from hotel mediteranneo in sorrento. We utilized this for a lovely pool and beach day there with transportation to and from. Overall a perfect way to end our vacation. Thank you villa claudia

Right from the beginning, Claudia was very responsive and provided a lot of great information and recommendations. Her home offers absolutely breath taking views of Sorrento and Mt Vesuvius. Nothing better than relaxing in the hot tub after a long day with that view. Her property is meticulously cared for and the home is well decorated. She was always quick to respond to any questions and gave us many options during check in. The small village Sant Agata (has some great local shops and restaurants) is a short 10 min walk along a lit path and very easy to catch a but to Sorrento - there is even a stop just outside the property. No need for a car (if you are not comfortable driving the winding roads) as the bus is readily available. If you are looking for a quiet place with stunning views away from the hustle and bustle of the town - Claudia's home is it! The Villa and the small town of Sant Agata provides you with a true Italian experience! Thank you Claudia for allowing us to share your home and will be back again!

Claudia, the owner of this beautifully designed and tastefully decorated villa, with views of Sorrento, its stunning coast, the Bay of Naples, and Mount Vesuvius, treated us more like family than guests. She spent over an hour orienting us to her home and expansive property, which provided an abundance of home grown tomatoes, and figs and olives picked straight from her trees, which we ate and cooked with daily to her delight. The house came stocked with wine, spirits, juices, milk, espresso, cereal, breads and snacks. The outdoor dining and cooking area along with the hot tub and rooftop oasis are exquisite and enhance the already stunning views. She even drove us to the town of St Agatha and showed us some of the highlights (local butcher, fish market, freshly made mozzarella vender, and restaurants). Claudia also provided us VIP access to the spectacular seaside Hotel Mediterraneo in Sorrento with access to parking, usage of the pool and jacuzzi. You can hike up beautifully paved cobblestone paths to the village (10 min) or down to Sorrento (50 min), or take a lovely scenic drive with breathtaking cliffside views along the route down to Sorrento ( 20 min). Positano, a must see vision is also a scenic drive (45 min). Undeniably Villa Claudia gets a 10/10. Because of Claudia’s kindness, graciousness, and attention to detail, she made one of the most beautiful places on earth even more exceptional. We can’t wait to return someday soon with friends.
