Immerse in bright landscape and fascinating heritage: Positano, Atrani and Ravello, a mixture of memorable sights and unique environments. Historical accommodation located over a cliff-edged promontory overlooking the bay of Naples and the Vesuvius.

"There are few places in the world for hiking, like the Amalfi Coast. The Path of the Gods winds through vineyards hanging on the sides of cliffs that allows you to imagine life in the ‘old world’ with the most breathtaking view of the Mediterranean. Italy was a feast for all of my senses."
