Built in the 1970s, it enjoys a breathtaking view of Capri and the Gulf of Naples. It is located in one of the most beautiful corners of the coast of Massa Lubrense, less than ten minutes, by car, from the center of the village.

This description refers only to the property called "Il Geco" subject of the description below. The second property can be occupied by the owners or their guests. Access to the villa is through an avenue of a private park with automatic gate on the provincial road Massa-Marciano (via IV Novembre, 36). The swimming pool, used from May to October, is filled with seawater; it is about 10 m x 6 m wide with a depth ranging from 1.5 to 3.5 m. The terraces around the pool, imposing directly on the sea, require assistance for children, as there are no complete fences. There are deckchairs and sunbeds. Bathing in the pool is a unique experience and you can get the impression of being suspended on the sea.

Beautiful villa , very spacious , a bit old but still in good condition, only the kitchen is not up to the standard but will be completely renewed before the summer I was told by the housekeeper. The communication with the housekeeper Sonja was excellent and she was always immediately available to answer questions and help when needed, suggest restaurants etc. The views from the terraces are incredible, Great pool and a bit tricky but private access to the sea for a swim in the morning or evening are a plus. Perfect place to relax, very private. Hope to be back some time . ##### konstantijn m.

Sonia, the property manager was very responsive anytime we had a question. Sonia recommended a local couple to cook us dinner our first night and it was amazing! Tips for your stay - Purchase groceries before or have Sonia have them delivered as it is a trek to the store. Use Sonia recommendations for transportation, we were a group of 7 and found some services concerned about driving a big van down but Sonia’s connections had no problem making it down and were very prompt with pick-ups. Would stay again. ##### Shelly M.

You cannot beat the view from the deck of this house. It is so beautiful! The location is very nice too! It is far enough away from the chaos of busy Sorrento but close enough to visit all of the nearby attractions and charming towns very easily. The owners were very accommodating and wanted to make us happy, which we very much appreciated. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking tools, plates and pots. There are two refrigerators, which came in very handy for our large group. The house does need some upgrades. We were apparently the very first renters so we made some suggestions, which included adding screen doors so the living room can get some air without mosquitoes. We also recommended they provide ant traps for guests, as the lower bedrooms and kitchen had some pretty bad problems. They probably need to have it sprayed regularily. We recommended they clarify that the villa has two separate floors with bedrooms but not 2 separate villas. The house was clean. The house manger was a lovely young lady who put together a book of helpful suggestions and recommendations for tours, restaurants, train schedule etc. This was very useful! She also met us in the town square to have us follow her on bicycle to the villa so that we would not get lost. This initial introduction was very charming and memorable! ##### Robin C.

The place is on the older side (furniture, bed, bathroom), but the view and the opportunity to all have our own bedrooms is great. The pool was lovely and the terrasse to all eat together as well. Great responsiveness of the manager, making everything easy. ##### Corinne B.

Nello's Villa was the perfect location to visit Sorrento peninsula for a week. The village of Massa Lubrense was walkable via the path above the olive groves. Restaurants and Marina were great and the locals made us feel like family. Coming back to the villa after busy days in Capri or hiking path of gods in Amalfi or touring Pompei was the best. The pool and outdoor verandas and views were so relaxing. Sonia, Persico transfer service and Ms Titina were amazing to work with and made our vacation so much easier. I recommend Persico car service over renting a car for sure. They know the property well and the drivers had incredible recommendations for so many beaches, wineries, restaurants etc.Our adult children did rent scooters for the week which were handy for nearby exploring of Termini and Nerano and going into to town for groceries.

The house is so spacious and clean and the property manager helped us with every aspect of our stay . There was a road race the weekend that we stayed and she helped us determine when there was a window for us to leave for our cooking class. I was most worried about how we would get to town and back as we did not feel that we could drive on the coast.

Twice This is my second stay in Nello’s wonderful villa by the sea. The first time was in March of 2020, as COVID began to impact Italy. Nello and everyone that works with him to care for the property took such amazing care of us back then that we just had to come back.This time, we brought our friends and family with us and spent 5 wonderful nights. At arrival, Sonia met us in the Massa Lubrense town center and showed us how to get to the private community where the villa is located. At the end of a winding driveway, we came to a gate that opens onto a little piece of heaven.The villa is perfect whether you want to have a large group together on a terrace or in the large living room, or if you want to find a quiet place to be alone. The smells of the sea, olive trees, and rosemary greet you at every turn. If you take Nello’s recommendations for cooks to visit the villa, you will have amazing food served by wonderfully kind people.Leaving the villa, there are several paths to walk up into the town center, or down into the harbor through lemon, orange, and olive groves.My only disappointment was realizing that the time had come to leave again.

The grounds alone are beautiful … the pool … the sea. It was all just perfect! Our host was amazing. Only thing I would change is more pillows and towels. But we did wash them so as it wasn’t ideal to do laundry it didn’t take much to do it. I would give this property a 12 out of 10! Just beautiful ##### Lina S.

Sonja was a friendly, helpful, excellent communicator. She met us all in town on the first day and drove us to the property, which, admittedly, would have been hard to find on our own. Its seclusion is definitely part of its charm however. Honestly it feels a bit like heaven to enter the beautiful villa, see the phenomenal view, swim in the salt water pool, and eat delicious home cooked meals with family and dear friends on the patio overlooking the Gulf of Naples and Capri. We had two phenomenal meals cooked by a lovely, local couple who are the real deal and there were enough leftovers for lunch the next day! Sonja also helped arrange transportation and made reservations for us at two local restaurants which were also lovely experiences. Honestly, we all had to pinch ourselves a bit, wondering if we were in a movie setting or if the beautiful villa, grounds, pool and view were actually our real life for a week! The kitchen was sparsely stocked, so be prepared to buy your own paper towels, laundry detergent, etc, but this doesn’t detract from the 5 star review - everything else was way too spectacular - it’s just a warning to be prepared for this. Also, the owners are right, you really can’t rent this villa without also renting a car. But ignore all the hype about how hard it is to drive on the Amalfi coast. My husband actually enjoyed it, most of the time! We will enjoy our memories of your stunning villa the rest of our lives. Thank you so so so much!! ##### Natasha W.

This villa has it all: well appointed old world charm and modern amenities on a private lot that provides a space for really slowing down. For those seeking the true relaxation of southern Italy, this property can’t be beat. Located in Massa Lubrense, away from the hustle and bustle of Sorrento and Positano we were still within reasonable distance of everything we wanted to do. We spent a lot of time in the Villa because once there you never want to leave, but also did get to visit some of the attractions of the area. As for the property management, both Nello and Sonja were a joy to work with and were extremely accommodating of our questions and needs. Could not imagine better hosts. A huge thank you to both of them and we will definitely be back! Finally, as a suggestion to others considering renting this same property, we rented only the property on this listing but were lucky enough to have the whole place to ourselves. Upon seeing the space, however, we realize if we were to come back we would like to make sure we have the same situation, as having another family share the pool and common areas would detract a bit from the whole experience. If your group is big enough, we suggest you consider renting the whole house. ##### Fatima V.

We had 10 adults and two babies under two. There was plenty of room to spread out. We hiked down to the water several times and enjoyed the sunset. Very relaxing. ##### Susannah B.

Plenty of room for the 12 of us, but great space on the main floor and outdoors for us all to hang out together too. Sonja was a dream to work with and was very communicative both before and during our visit. I would gladly recommend this Villa to anyone. We hope to visit again soon! ##### Amy F.

Property Manager is knowledgeable, available and very helpful. Views of Capri, Naples and Vesuvius. Relaxing sound of the boats passing buy. Spacious home.

We had great contact with the owner Nello before we arrived and the check in process with Sonja was also great, she helped us with all our questions about the area and gave us tips for the perfect stay. We were a group of 6 adults, we chose the location because we wanted to explore Naples and the Amalfi coast with our vintage Vespas, I can only recommend this to everyone. The area is really beautiful, you have a great view of capri and the gulf of napoli from the terrace. The house is very spacious and has everything you need. I can only recommend the cooking service of titana, who cooked for us one evening with a seafood menu. I repeat myself but there was nothing to complain about, just perfect. Thanks to Sonja and Nello for the great service! Kind regards Hubert, Tom, Daniel, Jürgen Sigi and Daniel II ##### Hubert W.

We were a group of 15 and the experience in this home was beyond our wildest hopes and dreams. The home is presented just as it looks in the pictures. If ever we had questions or needs they were addressed immediately. The home was clean, comfortable and helped create the best lifelong memories! Everyone on the house team was suburb and I found we were treated like long lost family instead of paying guests of a rental. ##### Dallas F.
