Ambita

Property Description

Ambita is a very charming two-story villa set on a beautiful panoramic terraced garden. Just less than 30 steps down the coastal road and 1.5 miles from the center of Positano, it combines elegant aesthetics with comfort and modern amenities. Surrounded by timeless olive and lemon trees, the villa embraces a seaside décor that incorporates a soothing white and blue palette, tiles glazed with the typical Mediterranean colors, and beautiful “Neapolitan terracotta” floors which derive their unique salmon hue from the composition of the local clay. Nothing restores your body and warms your soul like sitting on the terrace of Villa Ambita while admiring endless sea views and soaking in the balmy, beautiful sunshine of the Amalfi Coast!

Location Information

Nearest Airport: Naples 1 h 37 min Nearest serviced town: Positano 5 min (3 km) Nearest major city: Amalfi 28 min; Sorrento 42 min Nearest beach: • Tre Villa beach Club - walking distance from the villa; 5* establishment, chic, elegant • One Fire Beach Club (5-10 min drive from the villa) - loud music, fun atmosphere • Arienzo Beach, ample space, similar to Tre Ville, but less elegant Driving times estimated by Google Maps A winding scenic drive along the coastal road, known for its hairpin bends and spectacular views, takes visitors to Positano, Praiano, Amalfi and the spellbinding uphill town of Ravello, with its incomparable belvedere. Any of these popular resort towns along the coast are good bases for exploring the surrounding areas. Buses and ferries run frequently and are the most convenient way to reach other towns while avoiding what could be a challenging drive in the bustling summer traffic. Other excursion possibilities include a boat trip to the islands of Capri and Ischia, a visit to the vibrant cities of Napoli, Salerno, or the gracious Sorrento, or an exploration of Pompeii and Herculaneum - the fascinating ruins of ancient cities destroyed by the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius in the 1st century A.D. The Amalfi Coast offers an abundance of cafes, shops, art galleries and restaurants on its vertical terrain. Most beaches are small pebble inlets of land; thus, the best way to enjoy the sand and the turquoise water is to tour the area by boat and let an expert local captain take you to his favorite spots or suggest the best seaside restaurants. A memorable experience! WHERE TO EAT Rossellinis - One of the finest Italian restaurants, Michelin-awarded and boasting very high ratings. In high season, the restaurant is open only for dinner.

Perfect For Families!

I picked this property mainly for the views, pool, and access to air conditioning and it did not disappoint! Its not located directly in the little town of positano so it’s quieter and a little more slow paced but is still a quick drive to town (less than 10 minutes) that is the one downside though if you do not rent a vehicle (which most people don’t because it is SCARY to drive there) you will end up spending $80-$100 euros each time you want to go to town. With that being said, there is a wonderful restaurant right across the street that you can walk to. Overall it was a lovely place and my family had an amazing time and we would love to stay there again!
