Casa Michara – Romantic Hideaway with Garden & Sea Views

Sunset dinners, starry skies, and timeless Amalfi charm in the heart of Praiano.

Step into the soul of the Amalfi Coast at Casa Michara, a beautifully preserved 17th-century villa nestled in the vibrant center of Praiano. Perfectly located just a short walk from the Main Church of San Gennaro, charming restaurants, cafes, and bus stops No. 6 and 7, this elegant home offers a seamless blend of historic charm and modern convenience.

A 15-minute scenic walk—down approximately 350 stone steps—leads to the stunning La Gavitella Beach, while Marina di Praia is just a 5-minute drive or 15-minute walk away. You’ll be well-connected with easy access to public transportation, making it simple to explore the entire Amalfi Coast.

Optional fold-out bed for a young child (available on request at an additional cost – max occupancy: 7 guests)

3 full bathrooms

A bright, comfortable living room with sofa, armchairs, flat-screen TV, and SKY international channels
