About this property

Appartamento Ulisse I: A characteristic two-story cottage located in an isolated position, on the slopes of a hill which is covered with olive groves.

Appartamento Ulisse I is a characteristic two-story cottage located in an isolated position, on the slopes of a hill which is covered with olive groves. It sleeps two people. From Appartamento Ulisse I you will enjoy a nice view of the valley. Appartamento Ulisse I is 35 square meters (375 square feet). It features a shared swimming pool, private terraces and winter heating.
You will be roughly 3.5 km (2.2 miles) from Ravello, where you will find restaurants. You will find a grocery store at 500 meters (550 yards), the stop for the SITA bus Amalfi - Ravello line at 400 meters (1300 feet) and the closest beach (Castiglione di Ravello beach) at 2.5 km (roughly 1.5 miles). You will reach Appartamento Ulisse I from the parking area going up an external stairway which consists of approximately 25 steps.
For a succesful stay at Appartamento Ulisse I we recommend having a car. You will be able to park it inside the entrance gate. The parking space is suitable for at most one car. Appartamento Ulisse I is one of the holiday homes available in a small complex (you can find these holiday homes on this website). Please find a general description of the complex below, and please scroll further down for a description of Appartamento Ulisse I.

The apartments Ulisse are part of a small complex consisting of an ancient villa and two annexed buildings.


The small complex is situated on the slope of a narrow valley known as the Valley of the Dragon; it is located directly above the residential area of Atrani and beneath the residences of Ravello.


Guests will have access to a large garden that extends onto terraces along the steep sloping sides of the valley, as well as a lovely swimming pool equipped with umbrellas and sun loungers. Here you will be able to enjoy Wi-fi Internet connection too.


Please note: each apartment has its own assigned place on the swimming pool area.


Stretched out in the sun on the terrace surrounding the pool, you will be able to enjoy a rich and strikingly unique panorama. If you raise your eyes upwards, you will see just above you on the rocky outcroppings on which Ravello clings to the cliffside, and in particular, the terrace of Villa Cimbrone, known as the "Infinite". In front of you, you will see the opposite side of the valley, where jagged cliffs alternate with lush terraces cultivated with lemon groves. Below, framed by the nearly vertical walls of the valley, your gaze will find the glittering gem that is the town of Atrani, as well as the ocean beyond. The ancient pedestrian path and stairway that links Ravello with Atrani and the sea passes just in front of the house.


Descending by this path, you will pass through the center of Atrani, where you will find stores and restaurants; here, you will also find easy access to the beach. The pathway contains 300 stairs.


Please note: there is only one parkng space for each apartment, if you need a second one please contact us.

The apartment is within the villa complex with some steep access points by car and walking
The apartment is within the villa complex with some steep access points by car and walking. As long as you are fit and able then this is no problem. It is a well kept site, very quite (although we went in October) and all amenities provided. Friendly welcome and any problem was resolved quickly.

Peaceful, private & perfect views from a choice of 3 balconies.
Overall a lovely property in which to holiday. Some words of advice though; be prepared for lots & lots of stairs/steps so a level of reasonable fitness & mobility is required. Finding the property was a bit of a mission due to its location on a long stretch of a controlled one-way system, it’s very easy to drive past especially with how the locals drive - they are either tail-gating or invariably on your side of the road when cornering, very impatient & inconsiderate - Driving throughout the Amalfi Coast is not a pleasant experience & very stressful & I speak as someone who has driven throughout France, Germany, Holland & Belgium. At the Villa Rosa, parking is fine but the property road has very tight corners as it’s built on a steep hill, the smaller the car you can hire the better for your own piece of mind. Amenities on site are good with a swimming pool, laundry room all sited amongst bourghanvillia, olive & lemon trees. The site manager (Mr Nicola) does not speak any English, so do brush up on your Italian. He is a charming & helpful man & on a couple of occasions gave us some fruit grown on the premises. Our Appartanento Ulisse (No.10) was at the top of the hill so we benefited from the last rays of sunshine when the rest of the complex was in shadow, perfect time for sharing a bottle of vino. Inside the property it was clean, tidy & basic. The nearest place to walk to is Atrani, with Amalfi just round the headland. Atrani is small taking approximately 300 steps to get to but has a beach, small shops and various eateries. Just bear in mind the 300 steps back to the accommodation! So, to summarise; lovely location, friendly & welcoming locals but be mindful of your fitness. We visited mid-June when the temperatures were mid-high 20s (perfect for us), but come high season & factoring in all the steps it would have been more challenging.
