Perfect family home on Amalfi Coast
Our entire family loved our stay in Praiano. Britta and Francesco were perfect hosts, welcoming us to their home with lemons and strawberries from their garden and helping with car arrangements, activities, and restaurant suggestions. The location was peaceful but close to beaches, wonderful restaurants, and adorable local shops. We hope to return and stay here again.

Incredible property in amazing location
We stayed here for 3 nights and had an amazing stay. The photos don’t do it justice it is really a lovely property with incredible views and in a great location close to shops, restaurants and bars. The hosts were really responsive and helpful when we asked about recommendations for transfers and boat trips etc. We loved staying in Praiano which was a lot quieter and less busy than other towns on the Amalfi but was still close and accessible. We loved having the outdoor areas and found the property spacious enough for 7 adults. Cannot recommend this place enough and would definitely love to stay again!

Great stay in Praiano
We loved our stay in Praiano! The views of the Amalfi coast are spectacular from the front terrace and the side garden. The apartment is beautiful and very clean. We really appreciated staying in Praiano which is more quiet and less busy than the other towns . The host Britta was lovely and very helpful in helping us plan our vacation. Thank you for a wonderful stay for our family!

The perfect spot!
We can't say enough about how great our stay was in Praiano! The location is perfect as both Positano and Amalfi Town are crowded and very busy. In Praiano you get a more relaxed environment and the true flavor of the Amalfi coast and the incredible people that live there. There are many things in walking distance to the apartment (small grocery store, butcher, restaurants, St. Gennaro church, and several beach clubs). The deck overlooks the Tyrrhenian Sea with incredible views of Positano. It is a perfect way to end the day with a glass of wine. There is also a pool off of the back room which was a great bonus. Britta and Francesco are incredible hosts. Britta arranged a car service for us and even brought us fresh produce from her garden. I highly recommend this property, it was actually better than the pictures!

Perfect location with great views and great hosts
In a town where there are a lot of steps, Casa Maria was perfect because it was situation right on the main strip of Praiano which made it very easy to get around, buy food, eat at restaurants without chugging up and down a lot of steps. It was also very quiet and comfortable. The apartment had beautiful views and was very comfortable for our family of 4 and had all the amenities you can ask for. Great hosts and great apartment which I highly recommend.

A wonderful apartment
We had a fantastic time in Casa Maria Cristina. The apartment is lovely and the view is beautiful. The small beach just below was exactly what we were after (many steps to go up and down, but well worth it), and the pool was a very big bonus for the children. Britta is a wonderful host: communicative and helpful. Praiano is less crowded than many other locations along the Amalfi coast, and we thoroughly enjoyed this. The atmosphere is great. There are buses and water taxis that take you to other destinations. We highly recommend, and hope to be back.

Perfect Praiano Apartment!
We loved this spacious apartment and the outdoor space. The location is perfectly situated in the main town of Praiano and the views are spectacular from the space. We dipped in the pool often to cool down after our walks and hikes. The beds were comfortable and the air conditioning help us get an awesome nights sleep. We stayed here for 9 nights and can't wait to come back. Britta was always available and took great care of us.

"L'appartement est très pratique et agréable à vivre mais c'est surtout la terrasse et sa vue magnifique qui font toute la différence. Après avoir silloné la côte amalfitaine, le village de Praiano s'avère bien plus charmant et authentique que ses voisins plus renommés. Enfin, l'accueil de Britta est très chaleureux. Petit bémol : si le but du séjour est également de visiter la région côté Naples, la route est un peu pénible à la longue (il faut compter minimum une bonne heure pour atteindre l'autoroute à Castellamare Di Stabia)."

We had a very pleasant stay in this lovely appartement
We had a very pleasant stay at this lovely appartement. It was very clean, well equiped and had a wonderfull terrace with seaview. The owner, Britta, was very kind and helpfull. She even provided us with some italian food for we arrived very late in the evening and hungry. The location was very good (busstop, grocery, restaurants were very nearby), quiet and just between the also beautiful but more touristic and crowded Positano and Amalfi. We definitely recommand the appartement

Great location!
We loved our stay in Praiano. Great central location for Day trips to all parts of the Amalfi coast. It's nice to be close to all the busier areas but just far away to be in a quieter area for relaxing. The view is amazing from the terrace and the apartment has everything you could need. Britta was very helpful and responsive!

Séjour à Praaino
"Nous avons passé un merveilleux sejour à Praaino. Ce qui nous avait été proposé était tout à fair conforme à ce que nous avons trouvé. La propriétaire nous a très bien accueillis, le logement était d''une propreté irréprochable, elle nous a offert des tomates de son jardin qui étaient délicieuses. La terrase était fabuleuse. Etant venu en voiture de Belgique les propriétaires nous ont trouvés un garage dans lequel notre voiture a séjourné une semaine. Nous avons ensuite utilisé le bus pour visiter la côte amalfitaine qui est une merveilleuse région. Pour visiter Naples, Pompéi, Sorrento et la baie de Naples... nous avions choisi de loger à Sorrento. Nous avons apprécié de séjourner à Praaino car la foule des touristes n''y est pas. Le village ne s''y prête d''ailleurs pas (impossible de promener à Praaino car une seule route la traverse et il faut marcher à la file indienne) mais cela nous convenait très bien car sans la foule des autres endroits nous avons eu l''occasion d''avoir un contact avec les habitants et si nous étions courageux nous avions la possibilité de trouver la petite plage (340 marches pour y parvenir)."

L'accueil était excellent, madame Britta nous attendais avec son fils pour nous aider à monter les valises. Elle nous a très bien renseigné sur le transport en commun, les tours à faire. L'appartement était parfait, et la terrasse exceptionnel. L'épicerie était en bas et ils en a d'autres sur la rue. Belle place pour relaxer mais si vous voulez aller visiter les autres villes, vous attendre à prendre le bus Sita pour vous rendre à Sorrento environ 1h00. Merci Britta pour votre gentillesse.

"La casa è molto confortevole e la vista dalla terrazza merita da sola il viaggio. I padroni di casa sono molto cortesi e disponibili ma comunque rispettosi della privacy degli ospiti. Ci siamo sentiti veramente come a casa ed abbiamo trascorso una bellissima vacanza. Ci è dispiaciuto aver prenotato per una sola settimana e ci piacerebbe tornare fuori stagione per fare un po'' di trekking sulla costiera. Grazie mille a Britta e Franco."

"tutto corrisponde alla descrizione della casa mentre ancora più d''effetto a qualsiasi possibile descrizione è il panorama dal terrazzo : UNICO la casa è ben tenuta, l''igiene a prova di mia moglie (quindi garantita), lo spettacolo visivo eccezionale ; dall''altro lato (ma non è colpa della casa ed eravamo preparati) questo tipo di mare vede difficoltà di parcheggio, di spostamento per le visite alle zone limitrofe (consigliamo l''uso di trasporti pubblici i cui orari ci sono stati forniti dalla proprietaria gentilissima e disponibilissima) e di raggiungibilità della spiaggia . Se si cerca un momento di relax lontano dal caos cittadino è un soggiorno che mi sento di consigliare. "

"L''appartement est très bien meublé,décoré avec gout,l''équipement est de qualité il ne manque rien.La terrasse est très belle, la vue imprenable sur la mer. Seul problème, pas dû à cette appartement en particulier, mais à toute la côte Amalfitaine et à la période estivale: impossibilité de garer les voitures près de votre lieux de location à moins de payer 15 euros par jour pour le parking privé( que je croyait gratuit )à 300m ou le parc mètre à 50m à 2 euros de l''heure!!!Il faut monter 3 étages pour accéder à l''appartement.A déconseiller aux personnes non sportives. Les accès à la mer sont incroyables; 20 minutes d''escaliers en continu, les plages sont minuscules , ravissantes et presques toutes privées donc payantes.C''est la côte Amalfitaine avec tous...ses charmes. Britta est une personne très disponible, elle vous accueille chaleureusement et vous renseigne sur toutes les excursions possibles.Malgrè les aléas de parking, nous avons passé un séjour formidable et n''avons aucun regret."
