Sorrento

Just an hour safe of Naples, Sorrento is the gateway to the beautiful Amalfi Coast, a 50 km kilometre stretch of coastline within the Campania region of Italy. Sorrento itself is a bustling and vibrant town overlooking the Bay of Naples. The town is famous for the production of limoncello. It’s also known for its ceramic, lacework and woodwork shops. These can be found in the streets around Sorrento’s central square – the Piazza Tassa and along its main shopping street – Via San Cesareo. A visit to Sorrento would also not be complete without heading to its picturesque Marina Grande. This small, sandy stretch of beach is lined with family-run restaurants serving up delicious local dishes including plenty of fresh fish.

Sorrento is certainly an excellent base from which to explore the Amalfi Coast. It has excellent transport connections to other towns such as Positano, Amalfi and Capri whilst also being easily accessible from Naples airport. It’s also a good starting point for day trips to Pompeii and Vesuvius.

All these villas in Sorrento are situated within a 20 km radius of the town.
