The villa is ideally located, in a residential area, two train stops away from Sorrento (approx a 5 min train journey) and the train station itself is 5 mins away (but there is absolutely no sound of trains from the villa).
Piano di Sorrento is a quiet suburb, relative to Sorrento, but has a number of shops and some great restaurants within a 5-10 min walk.
It was a great base to travel on day trips to Positano, Amalfi, Capri, Pompeii, Vesuvius and Herculaneum without the need to rent a car. (Coach trips start from Sorrento.)
The villa itself (with 4 bedrooms) is only two years old and is well appointed. Rooms were cleaned, towels replaced and beds made, every day, The room was light and airy and it was nice to have a balcony to sit out on (there was also a nice communal outside terrace).
Included in the price is parking, which is handy if you are renting a car ( the villa is in a gated area.)
The breakfast (included in the price) is fantastic and really sets you up for the day. As well as a choice of cereals, yoghurts, rolls, hams and cheese, there was a selection of homemade cakes/pastries - Teresa makes wonderful cakes (she should really open a bakery)!!!
A short, and reasonably priced, menu is available (pasta, risotto, sandwiches) should you wish to eat at the villa, as an alternative to going out.
The hospitality provided by Salvatore and Teresa, was the best I have experienced anywhere I have stayed.
