Wonderful guy, gorgeous Villa!

Absolutely beautiful place. Guido was also incredibly helpful arranging a cooking class for us and a driver for us to get to Sorrento. He was extremely communicative which really helped.

Absolutely perfect

I rented out this property for a bachelorette trip and could not have been happier with our host and accommodations. Guido was highly communicative and went above and beyond to help me plan a memorable trip for the group. The apartments themselves were stunning - each apartment has a gorgeous view of the coast and was equipped with all the amenities for a comfortable stay. The guest house is also situated just a short walk to town and the bus station making this an ideal spot to experience Ravello but also check out some of the other nearby towns. I can’t say enough how thankful we were for Guido’s help throughout the trip and have every intention to return!

Stolfi Family

The property was beautiful and bright. The Amenities were very nice. Guido reviewed all the appliances with my daughters and how to use the coffee make. There was plenty of coffee for morning coffee and cream in the refrigerator. There were little snacks that were a nice touch. The cleaning lady was pleasant and responsive to our needs. The whole place was extremely clean. Guido was a great host and offered to help my daughter's boyfriend find food when he arrived, since we were out. He also drove us to the airport and was very accommodating. I highly recommend this villa for a family gathering.

Great apartment with spectacular Views

My husband and I stayed in O'Sole Mio for four nights and absolutely loved it. The views of the ocean and mountains from the apartment are spectacular. We were there in January, and watched the winter rain storms roll in off the ocean and the fog envelop the mountains as well as the nightly amateur fireworks displays down in Minori. The villa is conveniently located in town across from the auditorium and a short walk to town center, restaurants and shops. You could not ask for a better location. We took a couple of day hikes starting from the villa along trails and roads to other small towns in the area, all with wonderful views of the ocean. The apartment is newly remodeled, very clean and comfortable, nicely furnished and the pictures and descriptions on VRBO are accurate. There are two French doors out to two small balconies and the unbelievable views. The kitchen is set up with everything you need to cook a meal with some tea and coffee for us to use. The heaters worked very well (it was cold and rainy during our visit). We were very comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this apartment. The owners were extremely nice and accommodating, very responsive, informative, professional and a joy to work with. They own a ceramics shop in town which is a beautiful treasure, and impossible not to buy something! We miss our apartment already and feel it provided a home base for one of our favorite travel experiences in Italy! Madalina and Pascal, thanks for sharing your beautiful villa with us!

Great experience

The apartments at La Dolce Vita are clean, comfortable, and have an amazing view of the coast. Guido was a fantastic host. He arranged drivers, a boat rental, and recommended restaurants. When the AC stopped working, he had it fixed within a few hours. Complimentary coffee and snacks were in each unit. We couldn’t have asked for better.

Lovely hosts and incredible view.

Guido and Benedetta were wonderful hosts and La Dolce Vita is beautiful. Three apartments comfortably fit our family of 8 adults and a baby, and there was nothing better than enjoying an espresso in the garden while looking out at the breathtaking Amalfi.

Great view great location

Arriving in quiet Ravello from the bustle of Positano and Amalfi was delightful. We stayed in the Carp Diem suite for 4 nights and it was spacious, sparkling clean and very quiet both day and night. The views over the towns of Minori and Maiori and the Gulf of Salerno were wonderful. The apartment was well stocked with dishes for 4, a dish washer an almost full sized refrigerator and a washing machine. The king sized bed was very comfortable. There is a lovely lower garden area with large cushion loungers to enjoy the sunny days. It is only a short walk to the heart of town where there are several restaurants to choose from and a couple of small grocery stores to buy some provisions. We would highly recommend staying here.

Excellent stay!

We rented the Nettuno room for 7 nights for our honeymoon. It looks exactly like the pictures on the website....which is always nice. No one likes surprises! Madalina met us at the villa and explained everything very well. You could tell right away that it had been renovated recently as everything was extremely clean and modern. The kitchen was well equipped and we had everything we needed. The free WIFI only worked on the balcony and the TV was small (one good English channel with sitcoms, dramas etc) but we did not use them much as the view from the balcony is amazing. It looks like the same view as you see on all the postcards! We were very very happy with our stay and would recommend it to everyone. Thanks Ciao Location - located fairly close to the main square in Ravello (5 min walk slightly uphill).

Apartment stay for two adults and two teens

We stayed in the O Sole Mio Studio. The views were absolutely stunning but, the apartment had issues that detracted from our stay. Madalina was very kind and met us upon our arrival to take us to the apartment. It requires a walk down a large set of stairs, then a climb up a steep set of stairs to reach the apartment. This is not unusual but something to keep in mind if someone in your party has special needs or health issues. Madalina showed us how to operate everything - which is quite hi-tech, as the place has been redone. In the morning, we woke to no hot water. We were unable to reach her but, later, received an email explaining how to turn the hot water heater back on, which required us to enter the apartment next door (which fortunately was empty) going out onto the balcony and pushing a button. How would we ever have known that? The next night - the heater did not work. Since we were visiting at the end of November, the apartment was freezing. When we told Marina's husband the next day - on our departure - he replied that it sometimes happened. In fairness to him, there was a language barrier, but it did not seem like he believed it was that big a deal. Had it been summer, these issues would not have seemed such a big deal since we could have handled a cold shower and no heat. The studio was pristine and well decorated with truly spectacular views from the balcony. But, they need to work out the bugs in the equipment, especially since the price was somewhat high for the size of the apartment.
