Villa Le Cannicelle - Cilento National Park

ENJOY ALL THE ELEGANCE AND LUXURY OF A BEACH VILLA WITH POOL TO RENT IN CILENTO, CAMPANIA – SOUTHERN ITALY

Overlooking the horizon from Villa Le Cannicelle it seems you could literally fly over the sea. As you enter the front gate you are utterly rewarded with magnificent views of the Italian coastline. During the clearest sunny days the blustery island of Stromboli also peeks out on the horizon, and from this natural terrace there is nearly half of Italy opening to your eyes.

Villa Le cannicelle is a modern three-storey villa built in a traditional style, set 164 feet above sea level with stunning views stretching for miles along the Cilento Coast, in an harmony of stone arches that frame glimpses of century-old olive trees and sea views.

Perched on the highest point of Villammare, almost directly above the beach, it is elegantly furnished in a contemporary style and each level is self-contained making it ideal for larger groups. Outside there is ample space for everyone to come together and enjoy the stunning sea views from one of the many terraces of the villa, lounge in the shade of a huge Mediterranean oak tree, soak up the sun around the pool, or enjoy a meal on the rustic “taverna” dining terrace.

The entire accommodation has light, bright and airy atmospheres and is furnished in original and elegant taste. It is the ideal solution for a family and friend holidays at the beach in Italy. It gives opportunities to share holiday time with your loved ones as well as keeping your own privacy when needed.

Moreover the villa is directly managed by the owners with great care and it is positioned on a dominant panoramic hillside facing the sea, just 700 meters from Villammare beach. It commands a spectacular Mediterranean vista – views stretching down to the farthest mountains of the Calabria region (the mountain range that soars above Diamante and Paola) on one side and as far as Punta Infreschi and the wild coastal stretch bearing the same name between Scario and Marina di Camerota on the other side. Two thirds of the estate is covered with lush woodland and cork oak, a plant typical of the environmental niche stretching along the coastline of the Bay of Policastro between S. Marina and Sapri. Surrounded by a big enclosed garden, it is the perfect accommodation for families with children.

The villa is extremely spacious and well equipped with many terraces where to relax, sipping a glass of wine, and soak in the views before dining together on the wonderful covered “taverna” with its traditional Italian style wood-fired pizza oven and barbecue. A little piece of paradise for families and friends wishing to escape their busy city lives and experiencing the authentic Italian “dolce vita” and a truly memorable villa holiday at the beach.

Villammare Beach & Activities

Ah, precious vacations: days and weeks en famille, relax and happiness, abundant quality time with the offspring… The supreme luxury of an happy family on holiday together has no price!

Villammare is the perfect seaside resort for families in search of friendly and charming spots off the beaten track. Breathtaking views from the hills covered with centuries-old cork oaks, treks in the mountains, cruises along the Cilento Coast, mouth-watering regional cuisine, and the special friendliness of the locals will draw you back to this region year after year. The village is lively at summer and there are bars, chalets, and shops. It is not a place spoiled by massive tourism and you will find a friendly athmosphere all around and an autentic glimpse of Italy. Restaurants in the surroundings as well as “trattorie” and “pizzerie” offer very good fish, seafood and delicious local cuisine. The “marina” of Villammare is less than 1 mile therefore you could go there walking from the villa but car is recommended because the last part of the road to the accommodation is steep  (that’s the reason why the villa has such enjoyable views!).

Moreover the Villa sits in the “National Park of Cilento” (UNESCO world heritage site) therefore you could have lots of excursions in evocative natural and historical places, whether to the mountains or to the sea.

Private skippered boat can be arranged on request for tours to Sapri, Palinuro, Porto Infreschi, Acquafredda, Scario or Maratea beaches where you can watch the sunset or visit some of the many natural sea caves with their mesmerizing, colorful reflections. These are holiday memories to treasure for a lifetime.

Daily tours to Palinuro, Marina di Camerota, Scario, Maratea, Santa Maria di Castellabate, Salerno, Napoli, Pompei, Herculaneum, Matera are highly recommended.
