Apartment La Vite

Description from the owner

Apartment La Vite is one of the quietest places in Praiano, far from the busy road and set among pine trees, gardens, and olive trees. It has a fantastic view of Positano, and the islands of Capri and Li Galli. This apartment has been recently refurbished and everything is new and functional. The kitchen is equipped with a four burner stove, an oven, a fridge and modern appliances. Cooking meals is a pleasure in this kitchen. The apartment consists of an air conditioned living room with sofa bed where two extra people can sleep at an additional cost of Euro 80 per person, per week. There is a TV and stereo, a small bathroom, one air condition...ed double bedroom with en-suite bathroom with a bath tub and shower. Framing this beautiful apartment is a large terrace with outdoor table with chairs for relaxing evenings under the light of the moon. You access to La Vite through a lane of about 500 meters and approximately 80 steps. Free parking is possible on the road about 500 meters from the apartment.

A car would be useful, but not necessary as there is a frequent bus that loops Praiano and Positano every hour until late, whilst to reach Amalfi and Sorrento you will simply catch a bus which runs along the main road, reached by a ramp of about 200 steps. There is a grocery shop located about 600 meters (10 minutes walk) from La Vite, or through the 200 steps, or by the shuttle bus you which loops Praiano and Positano you can find other shops and attactions.

  Perfect Place and Location - A Must!

  Left on 06/13/2012 for a stay in June 2012
  
  

  I have just returned (11th June) from 10 days here with my partner and wow, it was fantastic. The apartment looks exactly like the pictures, with lots of little extras there to make your stay even better (free wifi, tonnes of cooking equipment, ironing board, mosquito candles etc, etc). The views were amazing and Praiano itself is a quiet town compared to neighbouring amalfi and Positano, but you can get there in 15mins via bus for 3euro’s. The balcony is a lovely sun trap, with a view of the sea and almost the whole of Positano. There’s a lot of steps in the area, c200 down to the road and c500 to the beach – so if you have bad knees, back or hips this would be the only reason to reconsider if your physical health isn't decent. We had an amazing time and for me it was great value - this place is a hidden gem not to be missed.
