We truly had an amazing time. The villa was everything we wanted it to be and more. The house was truly beautiful and the outdoor entertaining space made it even better. The accommodations were perfect for our group. We had plenty of space and it was so nice to have such a large kitchen with both interior and outside dining. We enjoyed sitting outside and watching the sunrise and sunset and it was so nice to be able to cook at home a bit.
I must also say that all of our excursions were wonderful. The drivers were all well informed and were extremely professional and fun. They made sure we learned the history and didn’t miss any of the sights. Your services were fantastic and Joseph was also very responsive and helpful. Thanks for all your assistance and we will definitely keep you in mind for future holidays. - M.B.
Ambita
Europe / Italy / Amalfi Coast
Ambita is a very charming two-story villa set on a beautiful panoramic terraced garden.
Overview
Just less than 30 steps down the coastal road, and 1.5 miles from the center of Positano, it was completely restored and restyled in 2017 to combine elegant aesthetics with comfort and modern amenities. Surrounded by timeless olive and lemon trees, the villa embraces a seaside décor that incorporates a soothing white and blue palette, tiles glazed with the typical Mediterranean colors, and beautiful “Neapolitan terracotta” floors which derive their unique salmon hue from the composition of the local clay. Nothing restores your body and warms your soul like sitting on the terrace of Villa Ambita while admiring endless sea views and soaking in the balmy, beautiful sunshine of the Amalfi Coast!
Base yourself for a week in this spacious villa, close enough to Positano with its restaurants, shops, and nightlife, and yet set in a tranquil zone. Enjoy your time relaxing with friends or family, and marveling at the impressive and unforgettable sea view. Villa Ambita is an excellent choice if you are looking for a magical place to spend your vacation. Its lemon-scented panoramic garden is your piece of heaven on the Amalfi Coast. The closest equipped beach is only a 3-minute drive away.
Accommodations
Ground Floor
Airy and elegant open-concept living room, with dining and sitting areas. This is the place where you can relax indoors, read during the hot summer hours, watch your favorite show on the large smart TV, and, during colder months, enjoy the fireplace while seated on the comfortable sofas. Through two arched French doors, this beautiful room opens onto the main panoramic terrace. The living room is connected to a fully equipped and modern kitchen, where you can create meals on your own or let the private chef you may hire prepare delicious typical dishes of the area. A guest bathroom with a washing machine for your laundry is also available on this floor.
Outside Features
Dine al fresco under the shades around a beautiful handmade wrought-iron table that sits up to 8 people. Enjoy the terrace’s tranquil atmosphere while lounging outside where everything encourages relaxation, especially the spectacular open sea view.
