Walk with the Gods

Walk with the Gods: Campania

This recently renovated home in the centre of Praiano is spread across two floors and offers priceless panoramic views of the Amalfi coastline from not one, but two private terraces. Boasting authentically Italian interiors across two kitchens, and two dining and living rooms – think terracotta tiled floors, domed ceilings and awesome archways – this stunning home is sure to seduce. Perfect for socialising as a group as well as sneaking in some quality time with your loved one, this home epitomises the delights of la dolce vita. You’ll love taking your morning coffee out onto the first-floor terrace while gazing out to sea and topping up your tan while lazing on the sun loungers before whipping up bowl of sea food spaghetti and choosing between two swoon worthy alfresco dining spots – beneath the parasol or surrounded by greenery.

Alternatively, head up to the second-floor terrace where you’ll also be able to lounge as well as barbecue to your heart’s content. Why not prepare a caprese salad to accompany your feast of fresh fish and be sure to have a sundowner in hand come sunset. Trust us, you’ll never tire of those sensational Tyrrhenian Sea views.

Your home’s location on the east side of Praiano means you’re within walking distance of both La Praia beach and local eateries as well as the town’s best fish restaurants. You’d be a fool not to sample some sea urchins, plates of paccheri pasta with red prawns and pistachio cake, all washed down with a zesty Limonce Mojito. If you feel the need to walk off your indulgences, you’ll also be able to join the Path of the Gods, the Amalfi Coast’s most impressive hiking trail.
