If travelling by public transport<\/h3>\r\n\u2705\u200b From Naples Airport<\/strong>, you can reach Naples Centrale station by Alibus or a fixed-rate taxi. From there, take a train to Salerno (about 1 hour) or, in the summer months, a panoramic ferry from Molo Beverello.\r\nBeware<\/strong>: there are no direct train lines on the Coast. The last leg of the journey is made, as we shall see in this paragraph, by road or sea.\r\n\r\n\u2705\u200b From the new Amalfi Coast Airport<\/strong>\r\nThe new Salerno - Costa d'Amalfi International Airport (QSR), active since July 2024, is the most convenient alternative to reach Amalfi. Connected to 18 international destinations, it is served by Ryanair, easyJet, Volotea, Vueling, British Airways and others.\r\n\r\nFrom here you can<\/strong>:\r\n\ud83d\udd39\u200b<\/strong>take the Airlink bus to Salerno station (40 minutes, \u20ac5);\r\n\ud83d\udd39\u200b<\/strong>board a Bus Italia shuttle (line 8) to the city centre;\r\n\ud83d\udd39\u200b<\/strong>book a private transfer (NCC) or taxi (fixed rates, around \u20ac50 for Salerno);\r\n\ud83d\udd39\u200b<\/strong>hire a car directly at the airport;\r\n\ud83d\udd39\u200b<\/strong>use the Sita Sud direct line to the coast (bookable online).\r\n\r\nYou can find a full article here, where we explain all about getting to and from the new Costa d'Amalfi Airport<\/a>.\r\n\r\n\u2705 By bus<\/strong>: panoramic and convenient\r\nSITA Sud buses leave from Salerno station every hour, stopping in all the towns on the Coast. Tickets must be purchased in advance (App Unico or authorised retailers) and validated on board. Sit on the sea side: the view is worth the price of the ticket.\r\nHere you will find all the information on the Sita Sud service, including updated timetables!\r\n\r\n\u2705 By ferry<\/strong>: the smart choice\r\nIn high season, Travelmar ferries from Salerno's Molo Concordia take 35-40 minutes to Amalfi. It is the ideal way to avoid traffic and enjoy the view of the coast. Trips are frequent and tickets can also be bought online.\r\n\r\nIf arriving by car<\/strong>\r\n\u2705 <\/strong>The SS163 Amalfitana is one of the most beautiful (and challenging) roads in Italy. Tight bends, stunning views, and villages suspended between sea and mountain: an experience to be enjoyed, but with care and steady nerves.\r\n\r\n\ud83d\udd39\u200b If you are coming from the north<\/strong>, take the Angri Sud exit from the A1 motorway and follow the Valico di Chiunzi, passing through Tramonti and Maiori. If instead you are coming from the south, take the spectacular coastal road from Salerno, passing through Vietri sul Mare, Cetara and Minori.\r\n\r\nVilla Santa Maria does not have direct access by car, but offers two options for parking:\r\nFree parking along the road (subject to availability, not bookable);\r\n\r\nPrivate paid parking, located about 200 metres from the villa: the service includes car pick-up and drop-off, with rates varying between \u20ac35 and \u20ac50 per day, depending on the size of the vehicle.\r\n\r\nDue to its somewhat remote location, we recommend that you contact the hotel in advance to better organise your arrival, especially in high season.","perche_te_la_consigliamo":"\ud83d\udc4d Why we do recommend it<\/h2>\r\nVilla Santa Maria is perfect for those looking for a charming holiday, with your feet in the water and your head free of worries. Elegant, quiet and with attentive service, it is the right choice if you are planning a romantic getaway with your other half.\r\n\r\n\u2705 A postcard-perfect location... but with privacy<\/strong>\r\nVilla Santa Maria is the ideal choice for those who want the best of the Amalfi Coast without sacrificing tranquillity. The property is nestled between the rocks and the sea, in a position slightly removed from the centre of Amalfi - which is still just a few minutes' drive away.\r\n\r\nThanks to its exclusive location and the steps separating it from the main road, it guarantees priceless peace and quiet, with a sea view that accompanies you from waking up until sunset. Forget horns, chaos and selfie-sticks: here you will find peace, horizon and privacy.\r\n\r\n\u2705 Panoramic rooms and top services<\/strong>\r\nEach suite at Villa Santa Maria is designed to offer maximum comfort in a refined yet cosy atmosphere. The interiors are bright and modern, with touches of Mediterranean design and well-organised spaces. Most rooms enjoy breathtaking sea views, and some have a private terrace or furnished patio.\r\n\r\nThe services?<\/strong> Air conditioning, Wi-Fi, satellite TV, a coffee machine and even a shared outdoor hot tub for a relaxing sunset dip. And there's no shortage of breakfast: hearty, served outdoors when the weather permits, with local pastries, fresh fruit and proper coffee.\r\n\r\n\u2705 Private access to the sea: a true luxury on the Amalfi Coast<\/strong>\r\nOne of the hotel's real strengths is its private beach, equipped with sun beds and umbrellas. In an area where access to the sea is often limited or crowded, being able to descend directly from the rocks in a private and quiet stretch is a no small added value. No fighting for a place on the beach, no racing at dawn: just you, the sun, the sea and the chance to relax a few steps from your room.\r\n\r\nA rare convenience that makes your stay even more exclusive.\r\nIf you are looking for more beaches to explore during your stay, also read this article!","cosa_vedere_dove_dormire":"\ud83d\uddfa\ufe0f Things to see on your doorstep<\/h2>\r\nWe are not in the heart of the city, so to reach the main attractions you will need to travel by car, scooter or taxi.

Inside, the Cloister of Paradise is worth a visit for its Arab-Norman architecture and timeless atmosphere. Next door, the crypt and the early Christian basilica complete a spiritual and artistic journey of great impact.\r\n\r\nA few steps further on, in the heart of the city's alleyways, you will find the Paper Museum, housed in an old medieval paper mill.

\r\n\r\nIf you are a trekking enthusiast and find yourself on the Amalfi Coast during spring or autumn, the Valle delle Ferriere is an experience not to be missed.\r\n\r\nLocated in the heart of the Monti Lattari, this nature reserve offers a unique micro-climate, protected from northern winds and characterised by high levels of humidity, which has ensured the survival of rare plant species such as the prehistoric fern Woodwardia radicans.\r\n\r\nThe most common route starts from Amalfi and winds along the Canneto torrent, passing through ancient medieval paper mills and watermills, evidence of the paper industry that made the town famous. The path, about 6.9 km long, is considered of moderate difficulty and takes about 3 hours to complete.\r\n\r\nSpring, until the end of May, and autumn are the ideal times to visit the valley, due to the mild temperatures and the lower number of tourists. In summer, the shade offered by the vegetation still makes the route pleasant, but it is good to start early to avoid excessive heat.\r\n\r\nMoreover, you are close to:<\/strong>\r\n\ud83d\udccd Atrani, the smallest village on the Amalfi Coast.

Here you will find a beautiful collection of the experiences we have carefully selected for you.\r\nIf you love good food, the Coast offers unmissable gastronomic experiences: traditional cooking classes<\/a>, lunches in agriturismi, guided tours of vineyards to discover local wines<\/a>.\r\n\r\nFor example, this tour among the vineyards of Tramonti<\/a> can be an original way to experience the coast in a slower way, amidst glasses of wine tintore and authentic flavours.","eventi_dove_dormire":"\ud83d\uddd3\ufe0f\u200b Events not to be missed<\/h2>\r\n\u2705 The Byzantine New Year<\/strong>: a journey through time between Amalfi and Atrani\r\nFrom 31 August to 2 September, Amalfi and Atrani rediscover their glorious past with one of the Coast's most evocative events: the Byzantine New Year.\r\n\r\nThis historical commemoration has its roots in the ancient calendar of the Eastern Roman Empire, which marked the administrative new year on 1 September. For three days, the villages come alive with costumed processions, mediaeval performances, symbolic ceremonies and a timeless atmosphere.\r\n\r\nThe highlight? <\/strong>\r\n\r\nThe investiture of the Magister of Amalfitan Civilisation, a solemn recognition awarded to personalities who have distinguished themselves for their connection with Amalfitan culture. The rite ends with an imposing historical procession through the city streets to the scenic Piazza del Duomo. An event not to be missed, especially if you love history, tradition and costumed events.\r\n\r\n\u2705 The Feast of St Andrew: devotion and tradition by the sea<\/strong>\r\nTwice a year - on 27 June and 30 November - Amalfi stops to pay homage to its patron saint, Saint Andrew the Apostle. We are talking about one of the most popular religious celebrations on the entire Coast, capable of uniting faith and folklore in a choral rite that involves the entire community.\r\n\r\nThe most touching moment is the procession of the saint's statue, carried on the shoulders of Amalfi fishermen along a route through the city, amid applause, fireworks, and the sound of boat sirens in the harbour.\r\n\r\nThe final climb up the Cathedral stairs is a breathtaking and eye-watering feat. Between liturgies, celebrations and folklore, the feast of Saint Andrew is a dive into Amalfi's deep identity.\r\n\r\n\u2705 The Historical Regatta of the Maritime Republics: challenge between giants of the sea<\/strong>\r\nEvery four years Amalfi returns to star in the Mediterranean with the Historical Regatta of the Ancient Maritime Republics. It is much more than a rowing race: it is a great spectacle-event involving Genoa, Pisa, Venice and, of course, Amalfi, in a challenge to the last row.\r\n\r\nIn addition to the regatta proper, in which crews compete on board galleons reconstructed on historical models, there are re-enactments, costume parades, fireworks and parties in the piazza.\r\n\r\nThe next event in Amalfi is scheduled for May 2025: if you happen to be in the area, don't miss it.","da_non_perdere_dove_dormire":"\ud83d\udccc Not to be missed if you are staying here<\/h2>\r\n\u2705 Da Teresa' Restaurant: a romantic dinner by the sea<\/strong>\r\nOn the beach in Santa Croce, mentioned earlier, is Ristorante \u2018Da Teresa\u2019, a traditional restaurant serving local seafood dishes, prepared with fresh, local ingredients.\r\n\r\nThe menu includes specialities such as paccheri con il coccio, spaghetti with mussels and clams, and grilled or acqua pazza fish, accompanied by typical local desserts.

\ud83d\udccd\u00a0Amalfi and its monuments<\/h3>\r\nStaying in a secluded property like Villa Santa Maria, you are likely to choose to dedicate an entire day to visiting the historical centre of Amalfi, then spend the remaining days of your stay relaxing and discovering other villages on the Amalfi Coast.\r\n\r\nAs we also explain in this article, dedicated to discovering Amalfi in a day, the heart of the town is compact, easily explored on foot, and rich in artistic, architectural, and historical treasures.\r\n\r\nThe obligatory starting point is the majestic Duomo di Sant'Andrea, with its iconic staircase and arabesque fa\u00e7ade dominating the main square. Inside, the Cloister of Paradise is worth a visit for its Arab-Norman architecture and timeless atmosphere. Next door, the crypt and the early Christian basilica complete a spiritual and artistic journey of great impact.\r\n\r\nA few steps further on, in the heart of the city's alleyways, you will find the Paper Museum, housed in an old medieval paper mill. Here you can discover the history of the famous \u2018Amalfi paper\u2019 and watch live demonstrations of ancient handmaking techniques.\r\n\r\nAlso not to be missed is the Arsenal of the Republic, a concrete testimony of the town's glorious seafaring past. This exhibition space recounts, with documents and artefacts, the naval and commercial power that made Amalfi one of the most influential Maritime Republics in the Mediterranean.\r\n\ud83d\udccd\u00a0The Ferriere Valley<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\nIf you are a trekking enthusiast and find yourself on the Amalfi Coast during spring or autumn, the Valle delle Ferriere is an experience not to be missed.\r\n\r\nLocated in the heart of the Monti Lattari, this nature reserve offers a unique micro-climate, protected from northern winds and characterised by high levels of humidity, which has ensured the survival of rare plant species such as the prehistoric fern Woodwardia radicans.\r\n\r\nThe most common route starts from Amalfi and winds along the Canneto torrent, passing through ancient medieval paper mills and watermills, evidence of the paper industry that made the town famous. The path, about 6.9 km long, is considered of moderate difficulty and takes about 3 hours to complete.\r\n\r\nSpring, until the end of May, and autumn are the ideal times to visit the valley, due to the mild temperatures and the lower number of tourists. In summer, the shade offered by the vegetation still makes the route pleasant, but it is good to start early to avoid excessive heat.\r\n\r\nMoreover, you are close to:<\/strong>\r\n\ud83d\udccd Atrani, the smallest village on the Amalfi Coast. You can easily reach it on foot from Amalfi.\r\n\ud83d\udccd Duoglio beach\r\n\ud83d\udccd Capo di Conca","cosa_fare_dove_dormire":"\ud83c\udf89 Things to do nearby<\/h2>\r\nJust a short distance from your location, you can easily reach Amalfi, from where you can easily explore the most iconic destinations on the Amalfi Coast: Positano with its picture-postcard alleyways, Ravello with the panoramic gardens of Villa Rufolo<\/a>, or even Maiori<\/a> and Minori<\/a> for a stroll along the seafront or a gastronomic stop.\r\n\r\nBut that's not all: if you prefer less beaten tracks, your base at Villa Santa Maria also allows you to venture towards quieter, more authentic localities, such as Scala, the oldest village on the Coast, or, on the other side, Conca dei Marini<\/a>, Furore<\/a> and Praiano<\/a>.\r\n\r\nIf you are planning a longer stay, we highly recommend dedicating a day to a boat excursion<\/a>.\r\n\r\nStarting from the port of Amalfi you can reach Capri, sail along the coastline admiring hidden caves and fjords, or dive into the transparent waters of the bay of Conca dei Marini.\r\n\r\nSome companies also offer tours with culinary stops and sunset aperitifs: memorable experiences that add an exclusive touch to your holiday. Here you will find a beautiful collection of the experiences we have carefully selected for you.\r\nIf you love good food, the Coast offers unmissable gastronomic experiences: traditional cooking classes<\/a>, lunches in agriturismi, guided tours of vineyards to discover local wines<\/a>.\r\n\r\nFor example, this tour among the vineyards of Tramonti<\/a> can be an original way to experience the coast in a slower way, amidst glasses of wine tintore and authentic flavours.","eventi_dove_dormire":"\ud83d\uddd3\ufe0f\u200b Events not to be missed<\/h2>\r\n\u2705 The Byzantine New Year<\/strong>: a journey through time between Amalfi and Atrani\r\nFrom 31 August to 2 September, Amalfi and Atrani rediscover their glorious past with one of the Coast's most evocative events: the Byzantine New Year.\r\n\r\nThis historical commemoration has its roots in the ancient calendar of the Eastern Roman Empire, which marked the administrative new year on 1 September. For three days, the villages come alive with costumed processions, mediaeval performances, symbolic ceremonies and a timeless atmosphere.\r\n\r\nThe highlight? <\/strong>\r\n\r\nThe investiture of the Magister of Amalfitan Civilisation, a solemn recognition awarded to personalities who have distinguished themselves for their connection with Amalfitan culture. The rite ends with an imposing historical procession through the city streets to the scenic Piazza del Duomo. An event not to be missed, especially if you love history, tradition and costumed events.\r\n\r\n\u2705 The Feast of St Andrew: devotion and tradition by the sea<\/strong>\r\nTwice a year - on 27 June and 30 November - Amalfi stops to pay homage to its patron saint, Saint Andrew the Apostle. We are talking about one of the most popular religious celebrations on the entire Coast, capable of uniting faith and folklore in a choral rite that involves the entire community.\r\n\r\nThe most touching moment is the procession of the saint's statue, carried on the shoulders of Amalfi fishermen along a route through the city, amid applause, fireworks, and the sound of boat sirens in the harbour.\r\n\r\nThe final climb up the Cathedral stairs is a breathtaking and eye-watering feat. Between liturgies, celebrations and folklore, the feast of Saint Andrew is a dive into Amalfi's deep identity.\r\n\r\n\u2705 The Historical Regatta of the Maritime Republics: challenge between giants of the sea<\/strong>\r\nEvery four years Amalfi returns to star in the Mediterranean with the Historical Regatta of the Ancient Maritime Republics. It is much more than a rowing race: it is a great spectacle-event involving Genoa, Pisa, Venice and, of course, Amalfi, in a challenge to the last row.\r\n\r\nIn addition to the regatta proper, in which crews compete on board galleons reconstructed on historical models, there are re-enactments, costume parades, fireworks and parties in the piazza.\r\n\r\nThe next event in Amalfi is scheduled for May 2025: if you happen to be in the area, don't miss it.","da_non_perdere_dove_dormire":"\ud83d\udccc Not to be missed if you are staying here<\/h2>\r\n\u2705 Da Teresa' Restaurant: a romantic dinner by the sea<\/strong>\r\nOn the beach in Santa Croce, mentioned earlier, is Ristorante \u2018Da Teresa\u2019, a traditional restaurant serving local seafood dishes, prepared with fresh, local ingredients.\r\n\r\nThe menu includes specialities such as paccheri con il coccio, spaghetti with mussels and clams, and grilled or acqua pazza fish, accompanied by typical local desserts.
