Villa in Positano

Villa Trara is a luxury apartment with a spectacular view, part of an old villa elegantly built and furnished, located in the heart of Positano.
The house offers all comforts and privacy in a peaceful environment. From the panoramic terrace you can admire the bay of Fornillo with the Saracen tower of Clavel and the islands of Li Galli. The Three islets, Syrenusse for the ancient Greeks, are a mythical place where the sirens tried to enchant Ulysses with their song. The island of Li Galli was home to the choreographer Leonide Massine and then the dancer Rudolf Nureyev.
The apartment is on two levels.
The upper floor has exclusive access to the terrace with outdoor furniture, majolica benches with cushions, a large dining table with chairs under a wisteria covered gazebo and a low table where you can enjoy an aperitif at the sunset.
Also on the upper floor there is a fully equipped kitchen (dishwasher, oven, freezer, tableware and kitchenware), a living room with sofas and armchairs, a dining area with fireplace, and a double bedroom with ensuite bathroom with shower.
The lower floor has of a master bedroom with two panoramic windows, an ensuite bathroom with antique tiles, extralarge bath/shower, and walk-in closet. Also on the lower floor there is a bedroom without window (only air conditioning), with a double murphy bed and ensuite bathroom with shower.
The house provides air conditioning throughout (cooling and heating), Wi-Fi, bed linen and bath towels.
The villa is located a few steps down the main road and in its vicinity there are restaurants, newsagent, supermarket, pharmacy, hairdresser, barber shop and a bus stop for the shuttle bus. The beaches are within walking distance, either from the main road or down the famous antique steps known as “la scalinatella” that leads down to the beach & main harbour in just a few minutes.

Piera’s place is perfect for our stay in Positano

Piera’s place is perfect for our stay in Positano. Clean, extremely spacious, not to mention the absolutely breathtaking views from the huge veranda and bedroom. Sunny and breezy during the day, and well-lit at night… Every room also comes with its own AC so it’s perfect during the summer. You have to climb up some stairs to get from her place to the main road, but for Positano’s standard it’s a lot fewer steps than most. It is also very close to many good restaurants and shops, and a short walk to the center of Positano (main beach). Piera was a very friendly and helpful host who went out of her way to make sure our stay was as comfortable as possible. Even though she doesn’t speak English, she made sure her friend who does was there to explain the workings of the apartment for us. She was also quick to respond, and overall communication with her was great. Thank you, Piera, for your warm hospitality. We truly enjoyed our stay at your place! We highly recommend Piera and her place in Positano, and will definitely return to stay here if we visit again in the future.

We can’t wait to come back one day

We stayed at Pieras’s home for two weeks in June + July. It was even more beautiful in person than it was in pictures. I literally couldn’t believe the view out every window and from the expansive terrace. I had to pinch myself a couple of times. We were met by Piera’s helpful nephew who was able to help us with our luggage and give us a tour of the home as well as answer all of our questions about wi-fi, etc. There are 2 bedrooms downstairs and one bedroom upstairs with ac in every room (you’ll definitely want to have it on over the summer). The home is within a five minute walk to some of the best restaurants in Positano (Da Vincenzo and Next2) and a 10 minute walk to a small market that has everything you’ll need for your stay as well as prepared foods for breakfast and dinner. It’s about 327 steps down to Fornillo beach (the local beach) or a longer walk if you want to avoid the stairs. It was a magical stay and we would highly recommend Piera’s home. We can’t wait to come back one day.

Piera was fantastic. The villa in Positano is amazing

Piera was fantastic. The villa in Positano is amazing. This is one of the rare places where the photos are not as good as reality. The views are so amazing, the terrace balcony is excellent. The location is actually really good, it is close to the main road with 1 and 1/2 flights of stairs so not too bad with luggage for Positano. Really close to some great restaurants. Or just go to the supermarket 250m walk, get your coffee in the morning or do antipasto platters in the evening on the balcony. The place has so much room. Two good double bed, bedrooms. Another with a wall pull down bed which is a double which was fine. Lounge dining and kitchen. Good walk straight down path to Positano maybe 5 min. Hire your own runabout one day, another hire a boat with driver to Capri and back. We really loved this place family of 5, kids 12, 10, and 5 plus Nan. – perfect for 6 people. Positano is beautiful, as is the villa, and Piera was super helpful

Our initial thought was Wow!

Our initial thought was Wow! The views are amazing and the home though beautiful is very homely and spacious. It is very close to a supermarket and great restaurants. Maria was available with any questions and is very helpful and friendly. There are 220 stairs down to the beach and of course 220 stairs to climb up also, so brace yourselves. I cannot fault our stay it was incredible and we would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone.

This was a beautiful place in a perfect location in Positano. Quiet neighborhood at night but bustling during the days and evenings. Breathtaking views and walking distance from the beach, pier and plenty of shopping and dining. The property was lovely and had everything we needed and wanted. Piera is responsive and friendly and we would love to have the chance to visit again someday!

Piera’s Villa is absolutely lovely!

Piera’s Villa is absolutely lovely! The pictures do not do it justice. So elegant. The views are to die for. You could spend your entire vacation on the terrace. It is the perfect home for a family of 4-5 or two couples. Fortuna was so helpful with check in and any other issues/questions we had. I highly recommend this Airbnb. Coffee and aperitivo time was our favorite time of day to spend looking at the expansive views. Piera’s home was comfortable and gorgeous.

Piera’s place is absolutely wonderful

Piera’s place is absolutely wonderful. The terrace is beautiful, comfortable, and even larger than we were expecting from the photos. The views are breathtaking, and the place itself is lovely and quite comfortable. Piera was very responsive and helpful in advance of our trip, helping with transfers and even a dinner reservation, and her friend Signoria Fortuna was wonderful about meeting us at the beginning and end of our stay, despite the fact that we were delayed on our way in. All in all, a fantastic experience at a fantastic place!
