Villa Li Galli

5 ^/5 Fremragende   Villaanmeldelser Vurdering Detaljer

The views from the villa are breathtaking. The house is charming, well-equipped, and very clean. The infinity pool and patio area were wonderful places to relax and eat. The only drawback is the treacherous road to the property. The Amalfi coast is known for its narrow and curvy roads, but the final 1/2 mile to the house from the main road is extreme. It is so narrow we had to fold in the side mirrors. It is quite steep with hairpin turns. Our Peugeot hatchback, diesel engine, barely made it. If you are not fearful of the drive, it is a great property.

I had a terrific experience finding our villa and renting it through EasyReserve. EasyReserve was clear and simple, the representatives were responsive to questions, and most everything turned out as described. I turned to EasyReserve when I couldn't find a good travel agent that seemed to be able to help me find a villa. We rented Villa Li Galli not far from Sorrento and Positano. The property is beautiful! I tried not to get up my hopes and expect it to be as nice as the photos, but it was just as nice as the photos, if not better. The pool was such a treat, and stayed clean and swimmable the whole time. We really appreciated the cleanliness of the entire property and the care taken to keep the patio and outdoor spaces immaculate, which we used a lot. Under description, the villa shouldn't be advertised as fully air conditioned. There is only a/c in two bedrooms. The rest of the villa including the third bedroom is not air conditioned. The small third bedroom was unbearably hot. We could have been briefed a little better upon arrival about the mosquitoes/black flies. Because the villa was so hot, we left windows open the first two nights only to be eaten alive by these creatures that left horrible welts all over us. We finally figured out we had to keep the villa tightly closed from late afternoon on, and use bug devices and bug spray liberally -- but if this had been explained to us upfront we could have avoided the pain of the first few days (and come equipped with bug spray)! But having to keep the villa closed made it even hotter. We asked the owner for a fan for the third bedroom and she brought one halfway thru the week and that helped a lot. Fans should be left permanently onsite for this issue. The villa is conveniently located and we found it a great base to visit Sorrento, Pompei, Positano and other vistas. We had to learn to navigate the tiny narrow cliffy one-lane road (with two-way traffic) up to the villa but managed to do so. Rent a small car! We loved having the small restaurant at the bottom of the hill to walk to and get pasta. The two bathrooms were huge and luxurious by European standards. We were delighted to find an outdoor shower by the pool area. We used the washing machine a lot. There was an extra toilet in the laundry room separate from the house, which was nice! We were also surprised to have internet Wifi access on site. We enjoyed that previous renters had left a few goodies like an unopened bottle of wine. We reciprocated upon our departure and left some items that hopefully will be enjoyed by the next. The owner was very nice and responsive. We had a problem one day when two of us had shampoo in our hair showering for a nice dinner out and the water completely stopped for about 18 hours! No way to wash out the soap and no use of bathrooms or anything during this time. We contacted the owner and there wasn't much she could do because there was a reservoir problem of some sort, but she responded quickly and kept us abreast until the water came back. She also kindly helped us book our final taxi back to Sorrento (I would have had no idea how to tell anyone how to find the villa). She was very sweet and responsive. The villa came equipped with clean linens, towels, dishes, pots, most everything one would need to be at home. The cleaning crew came halfway through the week and did a great job. The views from the villa are breathtaking. It's so peaceful there. We enjoyed visiting the towns nearby to visit the markets and do our shopping for our cooking. The local rental office was very nice and responsive when we needed something. Having the 24 hour cell phone numbers and the owner's direct number was helpful. It was a terrific experience for us and we made so many memories. I would definitely like to visit again. I would recommend EasyReserve as well as Villa Li Galli. If I can attach photos later when I have them on the computer, I will do so.
