Villa Santa Maria in Amalfi, open May–August.
Perched on the dramatic cliffs of Amalfi's coastline, Villa Santa Maria commands sweeping views of the Tyrrhenian Sea and the terraced villages cascading down the Sorrentine Peninsula.
The villa's Mediterranean architecture rises from the rocky terrain, offering guests an unobstructed panorama of sapphire waters and the legendary Amalfi Drive winding below.
Stone terraces and manicured gardens frame the property's 85-meter elevation, creating intimate ceremony spaces that overlook the coast's most photographed vistas.
We had the most wonderful time at this villa! Everything was perfect from start to finish. The staff were incredibly accommodating and helpful, always going above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Breakfast was delicious every morning — a great way to start the day. A special mention to Salvadore, who was truly amazing! He helped us with anything we needed and made our stay feel extra special. The service he provided and recommendations he gave us made our experience unforgettable. We can’t wait to come back — highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a relaxing and luxurious getaway in the Amalfi coast!
