“Perfect Wedding Location & Vacation House” Villa Sgrosso is beautiful. The entire property is perfectly maintained and the owner's are very nice and helpful! We had a wonderful week at the house and everyone enjoyed their time. Our wedding went off without a hitch and both Renato and annalisa were 100% invested in making it such a nice event. They have exquisite taste and all of their recommendations were just as they said. I must thank them for everything. The house is well situated along the coast. It was easier than we thought to walk to amalfi. The city Ravello was wonderful. Lastly, I just have to say swimming at the house was a dream. It makes all the difference to have direct and private beach access!

“Amazing stay!” we were a family of 4, 2 adults and 2 teens and we have a great time in Minori. An instant fall in love with the city, the place and the Braschi appartment. Kids were totally safe. The appartment is well equipped. Nothing was missing! Ac work absolutely fine. The beach is at 2 min walk. Anna give us clear indications, she is a great host and Mr. Franco was a great ressources to give us some hint! We loved it!

“Beautiful apartment” La Tuga was the perfect fit for my family (my husband and I and three children). We loved staying right across from the sea and steps away from restaurants, cafes and shops in Minori. The apartment had a very large living room, two baths and three bedrooms. We didn't use the kitchen but it was nice to have. It was 71 steps up to the apartment but the exercise was good after all our delicious meals! Our weather was on the chilly side so we couldn't take advantage of the being so close to the water, but it didn't stop us from exploring Amalfi the first day and taking an easy walk to Maiori the next day. We had some trouble with the parking spot since we had a large car and it was very tight fitting, but it was convenient to have. We would recommend the apartment!

“Awesome villa!” Before renting this villa I researched a lot of places. I wanted to stay in a small town without so many tourists and really see the amalfi Coast and the people who live there. Everything about this villa is exactly as described. The patio and view are amazing and the price is very reasonable for everything you get. The very best thing of all is the service provided by Mr. Franco. He arranged a boat trip to Capri and a bus tour to Pompeii. He picked us up and took us back home so we didn't need a car at all. He also picked us up and the Salerno train statio9n and took us back when it was time for us to leave. I highly recommend you asking Mr. Franco to help you with your local tours when you arrive. We would definitely stay in this villa again when we return to the amalfi Coast.

“Historic Building” We stayed in the heart of Minori, five minute walk to the sea in a lovely historic building. The apartment had large bedrooms with lovely linens, a nice kitchen were we cooked and a comfortable living/dining room. We were met by Mr. Franco who escorted us to the apartment and parked the car for us. He was very helpful in recommendations for the area. The location was great, close to shopping and the sea. There was always lots do in the evening strolling the beach and we were lucky to have a music festival in the evenings in the square outside our place, where we could enjoy the opera. Minori is close to all the great towns that the amalfi coast has to offer with out the busy hustle.

“Amazing Villa on the amalfi Coast” We booked this villa solely based on Tripadvisor recommendations and we were not disappointed. Il Monaco is the perfect vacation rental on the amalfi Coast. My husband and I spent 4 nights there with 2 other couples in late april to celebrate my 40th birthday. The villa is technically located in Ravello but is walking distance to the village of Minori. We flew into Rome and Mr. Franco arranged for our transportation from Salerno train station to the villa. The driving is not for the faint of heart and I would not recommend it. The villa is spotless and has breathtaking views of the Bay of Salerno. We enjoyed coming back to the villa every night to enjoy our wine and limoncello on the very private patio. We had our own little lemon grove and beautiful sundeck. Each of the 3 roomy bedrooms has a spectacular view of the water and comfortable beds. The kitchen is fully equipped and we cooked breakfast every morning and enjoyed our coffee on the patio. The wi-fi worked fine. There are 2 bathrooms but only one shower in the house so if you are a large party, you might need to use the outdoor shower. You do have to get used to opening the front door directly into the street but the drivers on those crazy roads are careful and it was all part of the adventure! We enjoyed the quiet but quaint little village of Minori. The next day, we bravely hiked the 1,200 steps up to Ravello. It was absolutely worth it. A visit to the Hotel Caruso is not to be missed. We took a driver to La Taglieta, high on the hill overlooking Positano, where we had the best homemade pasta. Positano is worth the visit for shopping and people watching. On our last day, Mr. Franco arranged for a private boat to pick us up on our dock and take us to Capri for the day which was the highlight of our trip. We had such an amazing experience at Il Monaco. Anna made the booking experience smooth and easy and Mr. Franco was always available to us. Simply amazing vacation!

“Amazing memories” I hesitated to write a review about this villa because I wanted to be selfish and not let anyone else know how fantastic it was !!! However as Valeria and Franco are such wonderful people I have decided to share the love ! My husband and I stayed for 11 nights with our daughter and son in law joining us on the last 5 nights . The villa is generous in size however we found ourselves on the deck most of the time . The views are amazing and to climb down the steps to the beautiful ocean is incredible . The ocean is calm and makes swimming a dream . The stairs from the villa to the road are a bit more challenging ( we just took it slowly ) , food in minori is fantastic with great pastries and fresh produce... The local ham , cheese , and peaches are incredible . We can't wait to go back and enjoy the best part of Italy .

“It was a wonderful experience well beyond our expectations.” The apartment was really large and confortable, better than the pictures on the web site. The staff was warm and helpful, without annoying the guests: they were always ready to satisfy our needs. The weather was ok and we had the opportunity to live the Coast: Will be back as soon as possible!

“Absolutely Fabulous” The apartment exceded our expectations.There was nothing we could fault--spacious airy clean, all one could ask for.We had the most relaxing enjoyable week of our 7 weeks away. Thank you very much!!! I wish I was still there!
