La Gemma di Praiano♡

Would definitely stay here again!

9.0

The location was perfect a 2 minute walk to the bus stop. The views from the deck were amazing and the property was spacious. The host was very accomodating making sure we found the way to the accomodation and organising us transfer back to the airport.

− The only thing we didn’t like was that the coffee supply in the kitchen was empty :(

Great view but disappointed with ants throughout the property when we arrived.

The view was phenomenal. However, there were ants everywhere…in the lower level kitchen, the middle level in the bedroom and all over floor in sitting area & on upper level living room. Very disappointing. No water or coffee provided to us; no laundry soap even though it advertised a washing machine & limited toilet paper. As we were leaving the host was bringing in 6 large bottles of water & 6 rolls of toilet paper. The host was helpful with recommendations for restaurants & things to do.

− Ants were everywhere when we arrived. Disappointing! It would of been nice to have some bottled water & coffee & tea for the morning. Plus we had to buy laundry soap & toilet paper.

Wonderful stay for relaxing

Gorgeous place with a beautiful view. The location was wonderful as it was a 5 minute walk from a nice spot for breakfast and no less than 6 impeccable restaurants.

− The trash pick up was a little confusing but that was probably more our issue being American

Very good

Spectacular terrace but Amalfi Coast too crowded. Limited mobility by staying at Praiano.

We stayed 11 nights in the house, in May 2023. The terrace has a spectacular view on Positano, it is THE asset of the house. The bed and the bedlinen are great. Air conditioning (which we used as a heater because of the cold rainy weather) at each of the 3 levels . The bus stop is nearby and reachable without stairs (a big asset at Amalfi coast). The decoration is regional and elegant.

− We would not recommend staying at Praiano: no ferries, only a SITA bus in the direction of Amalfi and of Sorrento and a bus from Amalfi Coast Mobility to Positano. The Amalfi coast was much too crowded for its infrastructure: when the busses are full, they don´t stop, even at Praiano (which is one of the big stop). We hat to wait for more than 1,5 hour to get into a bus in the direction of Sorrento (on our departure day, we had to reach Naples). In Amalfi (start stop!) we had to wait for more than 1 hour in the wind and rain to get into a bus to Praiano. Private transfers are incredibly expansive (and even though they have to be booked well in advance) and not an alternative. We hat 7 days of rain out of 12 days: the house is not made to be inside: very humid. House has 3 levels, only one with windows (the ground floor, same level than the terrace, with a sofa and a tv). Sleeping room and bathroom a level downstairs (with small windows at ceiling level, which can´t be opened). Kitchen and toilet next level downstairs (cellar level, without windows at all, very humid). No dish washer. Because of the humidity, our wet clothes could not dry inside. To eat inside, we had only the table in the kitchen/cellar level without windows. Communication: reaction time is too slow.

Superb

The location is perfect for Praiano. Close to the bus stop and taxi pick up. A very short walk to the small shops and restaurants. The view is stunning. Everyone told me were I am staying is one of the best views in Praiano. You see the sunset ever day. The apartment was spacious, the bed was very comfortable. It was easy to arrange a time to be let into the apartment and the host was very kind to me. As it was still quite cool, and I came from the tropics I was happy to discover that the AC could also function as a heater! If you stay here be sure to go to Saghir, a small restaurant bar. The owner is a real character, plays great music and loves to dance. A great restaurant is Il Pino overlooking the sea, delicious sea food and another really good restaurant is La Moressa also with stunning views. All walking distance. The closest restaurant is just down the steps from the apartment, the owner is very friendly.
