Villa d'Arte

Villa d'Arte: Campania

Located right in the heart of Sorrento, this home is an art lovers' paradise. Tucked into the palm trees and citrus groves and just moments from the sparkling Tyrrhenian Sea, you’ll have the best of Amalfi’s coast and culture. With a collection of fine artworks, sumptuously stylish furnishings and a beautiful natural setting, this getaway provides total relaxation in any season.

The interior is a classic oasis bathed in natural light. Ornate antiques, enigmatic statues, architectural accents infused with drama, tropical plants and rich textiles create a luxurious blend of romanticism and modernism. An expanse of glass opens up the main living space where you can enjoy conversations and a glass of spumante, while there's also a gorgeous patio area complete with a dining table from which to savour the Amalfi sun. Before settling into the sleek loungers where you can enjoy your new book, enjoy a light sweat session in the villa’s gym. You’ll love refreshing in the sparkling pool and enjoy a fresh juice post-workout. Make the most of your alfresco dining room with a barbecue dinner before sharing some Limoncello as the sun sinks beneath the palms.

The lively Sorrento is only a short drive if you’re seeking a day around the harbour – make sure to sample an array of fresh seafood at Porta Marina. Our suggestions for the area are Museo Correale di Terranova, the famous Piazza Angelina Lauro, and the town centre with its statues of Torquato Tasso and Sant'Antonino – don’t forget to grab a gelato as you go.
