    'La Clarissa', a romantic cottage on the S.S. Amalfitana, is 800 meters from the pretty village of Minori. Attention to detail, with the large terrace projected on Marmorata Bay, it's ideal for a couple looking for a relaxing corner nestled in the beautiful Amalfi Coast.

Amazing View and Location

My wife and I loved staying here. Everything about our stay was amazing. Breathtaking views from the patio and such a fun city. Close to the restaurants and shopping in Minori and Mario made the check in very easy and was very helpful. This stay was the highlight of our trip to Italy and we hope to return again and stay at this amazing home.

Amalfi Dreams - Nailed it!

Everywhere you look is gorgeous. Mario was the perfect host. He helped us get acquainted with the town and set up drivers for us. Without him, our vacation would not have been as good! The walks to Minori was a delight. The people of the town were warm and welcoming. Catching a bus to Amalfi was easy and inexpensive. I can't wait to go back!!

Absolute dream

Our stay was amazing. The apartment was adorable, the location was great (just a short walk into Minori and the bus stops a few steps from the door) and the private balcony was perfection. Mario is the warmest, kindest, and most helpful host we have ever encountered through our rentals on this app, truly making us feel like friends/family visiting.

This lovely little apartment has amazing views - they more than compensate for any small inconveniences. The spiral staircase could be difficult for some. The apartment is very well equipped inside with clean and modern facilities. Mario was particularly helpful throughout our stay.

Spectacular Terrace View of the Sea!

We enjoyed sitting on the terrace drinking coffee and wine. Mario was exceptionally helpful with arrival, check-in and activity suggestions. Mario arranged a driver to take us to various locations along the coast. This experience was very memorable. We visited in February, outside of peak tourist season so the traffic was manageable. The ten minute walk to Minori along the busy winding road was scary at times. This place is not suitable for anyone with mobility challenges. Taxi from Salerno train station costs anywhere from 75 -90 euros.

A slice of paradise

We had the most unforgettable stay...my teenage son wants to move to Ravello! The view was unbeatable, whether getting dressed in the morning, fixing a snack in the afternoon or drinking wine on the terrace at sunset....a view from every room. Chrystal clear beach and great restaurants within walking distance, bus stop across the street - the location was amazing. We visited the busier towns of Positano and Amalfi and the quieter neighbouring towns by bus and by ferry - we hiked the Path of Gods and Path of Lemons, every location was very accessible. The Property Manager and Mario were very communicative and provided exceptional service. Mario helped us out of a bind on more than one occasion , he was so doting and helpful and always with a smile on his face - the best service we received on our entire 3-week trip to Italy.

The perfect writer’s escape

My spouse and I took a working vacation to the Amalfi Coast to both write and see the area. This cottage is small while providing all that wea needed: small kitchen for simple home meals, a full bath plus small half bath next to bedroom, and small living room. Of course, the selling point is the stunning view combined with privacy. The wide terrace/patio is exactly as pictured and adds so much space. We practically lived on the terrace. Also, Mario, the property manager, is extremely helpful, answering a million questions and even sending a taxi to rescue us when we hiked up to Ravello (it’s 1000 steps straight up!) too late in the day to walk back down in the dark. The cottage is literally on the main coast road, so there is noise from the road, which we quickly adjusted to. Also, unit is on two floors, which worked fine for us. Would rent again in a heartbeat.

beautiful house but a few notes

This property has a magnificent view and plenty of charm. The pizza oven is incredible. However, the parking spot requires a walk down a very busy road to the house. It's a narrow, two-way, winding road with no shoulder, where the cars go whizzing past very quickly. Especially at night, it didn't feel safe to walk from the car to the house. The house also could be better equipped; there were no extra blankets and it was very cold downstairs (we were there in the winter) and there also was nothing provided for us to clean with -- no paper towels, no mop, and no broom which presented problems for us. In spite of these things, it is a beautiful property and a special place.

Fantastic View!

After a bit of difficulty finding this place, our fault for not using google maps! we were welcomed by the property manager who had been very patient with us attempting to locate the apartment. The apartment is as advertised. There is a spiral staircase connecting the bedroom and the main floor that is quite steep but we utilized the outside staircase to carry our bags in and out. There is noise as other reviewers have stated but we live in a large city and were not bothered by the traffic. The view from the patio and bedroom walkout is spectacular! We took advantage of both the bbq and a washing machine. Parking was off site and cost extra. We chose to leave the car parked and walked everywhere. The host provided a few items for our first breakfast which was greatly appreciated.

Amalfi Dreams was a dream come true!

I cannot begin to thank Mario enough for the attention and care he gave my family on our trip to the Amalfi Coast. My sister and I lost our significant others recently and planning a trip without them was nothing short of an act of courage. Mario was always a WhatsApp text away with an answer, a suggestion or a remedy. From beginning to end we felt he truly cared. And a huge thanks to Dario for giving that memorable ride along the Amalfi Coast all the way to Positano in a golf cart! And thanks also for stopping at the Fjord Furore!!! We are recommending La Clarissa/ Amalfi Dreams to EVERYONE we know. The house was perfect! We actually chose to stay and relax there as opposed to over extending ourselves visiting places like Pompeii and Amalfi although both were EASILY accessible. Pompeii we are saving for our next trip. We can’t wait to return to our home away from home. Grazie Mille! Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Charlotte and Catherine from Newburyport, Massachusetts .

16 Sweet Days with an Extraordinary View

We chose this rental for the terrace and -night and day- it didn’t disappoint. The flat was the right size for the two of us and the location - just a 10 minute walk to Minori although it has a Ravello address- made for easy treks to restaurants and stores. We did use the parking for our rental car and it was fine although not on the premises. The spiral staircase was fun but not for those with mobility issues. We didn’t mind the closeness of the street or the traffic. Since this was a longer stay -over two weeks- it would have been helpful to have things like trash bags, soap, etc. for a longer stay. We had to ask for trash bags and we couldn’t find the broom vacuum cleaner for about a week. Mario - the property manager- oversees over 20 properties and so sometimes it took a day for him to get back to us when we had questions. All in all, it was a pleasant stay and -again- the view is unbeatable.

Quaint cottage with sprawling terrace to enjoy magnificent seaside views of the Amalfi Coast.

Our stay at the La Clarissa cottage was spectacular! Our host Mario was friendly, informative and accommodating, he contacted us the day before to arrange a meeting place and time for check in. Mario accompanied us to the cottage for a tour and overview of La Clarissa. Aside from the tricky location of the cottage on the Via Marmorata, (the main coastal road), the location is perfect, just 5 minutes walk to the town of Minori. The cottage was bright, spacious, clean and tastefully decorated. There was plenty of room for 2 of us, with separate living spaces upstairs/downstairs and a bathroom on each floor, the kitchen had everything we needed. The spiral staircase was a bit challenging for my 6’4” husband, however there is a second set of straight stairs outside that lead to the second floor as an alternative. The outdoor space with the huge terrace is why I chose this rental, it was absolutely phenomenal! The La Clarissa exceeded my expectations, I would definitely recommend this rental for a couple looking for rest and relaxation with incredible views of the seaside of Amalfi Coast.Pros: seaside views, comfortable/clean cottage, location near small non-touristy town, plenty of restaurants/shopping, easy access to ferry, bus.Cons: location on busy road with minimal walking space, traffic noise at times, not ideal for children or those with accessibility needs..

La Dolce Vita again

This was the second time we have stayed at La Clarissa - the first was ten years ago - and again it lived up to everything we wanted. The Villa is perfect for a couple although three could work at a squeeze. Its two key features are first the wonderful south facing terrace with its views and where you can watch the comings and goings in the bay below and secondly its walkable closeness to wonderful little Minori a quintessential Italian coastal town with its restaurants, shops and welcoming atmosphere. All too often on the Amalfi Coast you can be perched in a spectacular spot that requires hundreds of steps to reach or a car/bus ride to the nearest town - not La Clarissa! Anna the owner is very approachable and Mario the fixer is always on hand to give brilliant advice and deal with any problems. We had a car so there was extra to pay for the parking spot but it's not essential and anyway the best way to see Amalfi, Positano, Cetara, Capri and Sorrento is to go by ferry. Finally some have mentioned the road which is right outside the front door. It is busy with lots of scooters and yes it can be a bit noisy at rush hour and the SITA buses do hoot at every opportunity but you soon get used to it and in no way does it affect your enjoyment of this unique little gem. La Clarissa awaits - if you love everything that Italy provides you won't be disappointed!

Breath-taking view

The incredible view from each and every room in this adorable villa was quite simply amazing. The tiny kitchen was so well equipped we were able to cook and enjoy the terrace for dinner and drinks and soak up the view as much as we possibly could. The bedroom upstairs was really comfy with an ensuite loo so you didn't need to go downstairs during the night. The spiral staircase was quite steep but gave us no issues at all but if you had mobility issue this may not be the place for you. We were able to park very close by and the manager was amazing, he sent us ideas of where to go where to eat what to see etc and responded so quickly when we contacted him. Generally he was a lovely helpful chap. The bedroom was a little noisy in the mornings with the traffic being so very close but we were aware of this before we booked and the view and the convenience of being so close to the town made up for it. We were up early anyway to soak up as much of the view as possible! We walked each day down into Minori and you are on the main Amalfi drive so the traffic can be a little scary but they are used to seeing pedestrians and if you take care and keep your wits about you it is absolutely fine, part of the adventure really. It takes about ten mins to walk down into town where there are many options for food and drinks and the ferry as well to explore the rest of the coast of you don't want to drive. We totally loved it and perfect for exploring the Amalfi coast from a quiet spot

We had the best time! Mario was beyond wonderful! He knows absolutely everyone in town, has great recommendations, and can arrange transport, boat rentals and golf cart rides not only around town but up to Ravello. Everyone he introduced us to was genuinely kind and our vacation was made even better through his boundless resources. And the best part- he’s a really nice man! My husband and I had an extra special trip due - in part - to all the arrangements and recommendations from Mario. The restaurant next to his office, Lumos, was perfection! The best moist meatballs ever, the kind gesture of Limoncello and the lovely owner who kept checking on us. Also, when in this sweet little town of Minori, You must not miss the best pastry shop - Sal De Riso. Amazing!!The walk from our place to the town of Minori is 10 minutes along a VERY tight road and then several stairs. The door to the house is right on the main road just so you are aware. The inside circular staircase is not comfortable for anyone bigger in size but the outdoor stairs were wide and get you to the patio and bottom floor of the house. The only suggestion I have is to have some sort of anti slip material added to the shower, it’s very slippery. And maybe a shower curtain so everything doesn’t get wet. Great overhead shower head though Overall- it was a very special experience all around! We can’t wait to come back!Thank you Mario & team for creating such special memories for us, we are grateful!
