Relais Villarena Nerano - Massa Lubrense

Once the elegant seaside residence of the Marquis of Villarena, Nerano's Relais Villarena has been skillfully transformed into attractive apartments ideal for those looking for a peaceful retreat in which to stay whilst visiting Italy's spectacularly beautiful Amalfi Coast.

The immaculate terraced gardens, so typical of the area, are distributed on three levels. Here, amidst the fragrant citrus trees, one finds Relais Villarena's swimming pool, panoramic solarium, furnished gazebo, and children's play area. From the apartments and the terraces, a stunning view of the Bay of Salerno and the Li Galli islands can be admired.

The individually appointed apartments, have all been named after the islands clearly visible from this part of the coast. They are: the Gallo Lungo, the Brigante, the Isca, the Rotonda and the Vetara. The apartments are tastefully furnished and equipped with every modern convenience. All four apartments have either a kitchen or kitchenette. The Isca, is a charming little double room, extremely popular with young couples. Close to the residence, the Suite Gerania and Camera Zodiaco are the ideal choice for those seeking additional privacy.

Guests dining at the '"Dolce far Niente restaurant" enjoy delicious local cuisine, prepared with the Amalfi Coast's abundant fish and seafood and the vegetables cultivated in the Relais' organic farm, and a superb selection of the region's wines. The terraces of the restaurant provide an attractive venue where to host an intimate al fresco wedding reception.

When they are not relaxing on the sunny terraces or taking a dip in the pool, guests may choose to head to the beach of Nerano, just a kilometer away from the Relais. For those wishing to explore the area, staff of Realis Villarena will be please to organize trips to nearby Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello, or further afield to Pompei, Naples and the island of Capri.
