Sorrentine Sea Breeze

With sweeping views of the Bay of Naples, this villa is a dreamy place to stay. Naturally, the outdoor spaces are the biggest draw – there's a private swimming pool, a covered terrace ideal for alfresco dining, and a panoramic sitting area perfectly positioned to watch the coastal sunsets. Though the interiors aren't quite as mesmerizing, they're comfortable and cosy. Two bedrooms can be set up with either twin or double beds, while a sofa bed can accommodate an additional two guests for a fee. And you can't beat the location. Sorrento (6 kilometres away), Positano (12 kilometres away) and a sandy beach (5 kilometres away) are all within easy reach by car.
