Lovely place to stay for exploring the surrounding area. Comfortable accommodation. Friendly owners. Lovely balcony with sea view. Praiano is a quiet town and very peaceful.

Great views, friendly village
Amalfi coast is perfect for early spring time! What you should know: Amalfi coast means climbing steps! 65 to Casa Chicca paradise, and steep ones, but every single step is worth to climb. So many breathtaking views, beautiful details in the house and all around, gardens and lemon trees. Little problem with moisture, as we were the first guests of the year, but Paola took care immediatly.

It's my third time and lovely as ever. As I'm older the stairs were a bit challenging. I would buy it if it was for sale. Ms Paola [the owner] was good. Recommend to anyone if can handle stairs. Wonderful property! You were top class.

Casa Chicca is perfect for a couple looking to explore Praiano and the Amalfi Coast
Casa Chicca is perfect for a couple looking to explore Praiano and the Amalfi Coast. The apartment is nestled under the church at St Luca Piazza and the views from the terrace are spectacular, perfect for a glass of wine at the end of a day sight seeing or hiking. We woke in the mornings to church bells and the thud of lemons falling from the lemon tree. The apartment is equipped for basic cooking but there are lovely restaurants close by. We would recommend La Posteria, Restaurant Franchino and Kasai Restaurant. Restaurant La Moressa is close by but we found the food mediocre and over priced (it seemed popular for take away pizza). Paola [the owner] was very friendly, she met us from the square and brought us to the apartment, although it is easy to find as long as you can make your way to the church. Paola also helped us arrange transportation back to Naples airport. This was our second holiday to Praiano and we will definitely return to Casa Chicca.

The accommodation was clean and consistent with photos and descriptions, the terrace was a real bonus. Perfect for a quiet and relaxing holiday.

Perfect stay if you want to explore the Amalfi Coast but don’t want to stay in a overcrowded Positano. This accommodation offers everything you need. It is close to the center street and has an amazing view over the sea where you can have your romantic dinner. The accommodation also provides all the essentials for a pleasant stay. A fully equipped kitchen and even a washing machine. Definitely would book this again.

Fantastic apartment, we were a couple and it was perfect for us
Fantastic apartment, we were a couple and it was perfect for us. The location is convenient, very close to the square and to the local minibus stop (if you know the Amalfi Coast you know that you can only move by public transportation there... Comfortable and cheap!). The owner is a real gem, very kind and helpful! Everything was perfect, highly recommended!!! A place where come back! Truly a great vacation! Summer In Italy is a truly amazing company! We have traveled a lot and have had the opportunity to try different booking agencies, and I must say with no doubt that Summer In Italy is truly above average both in terms of availability and courtesy - always present and available! Excellent and highly recommended.

Ruhige Wohnung in zentraler Lage
Die Wohnung punktet vor allem mit ihrer grossen Terrasse und der zentralen Lage. Obwohl direkt am zentralen Platz vor dem Dom gelegen, ist die Wohnung sehr ruhig. Beide Straende Praianos sind fusslaeuig zu erreichen. Die Bushaltestelle nach Amalfi und Sorrent erreicht man zu Fuss in ca. 10 min. 3 Supermaerkte zum Einkaufen erreicht man in ca. 5 min. Ein Urlaub macht hier also auch ohne Auto viel Spass. Und die Vermieterin ist sehr nett sowie hilfsbereit. Die Kueche ist fuer zwei Pesonen gut ausgestattet.
