Comfortable villa for large groups, with private pool, hot tub, terraces galore and its own Saracen tower in Massa Lubrense on the Amalfi Coast
If you’re looking for space and relaxation on the Amalfi Coast, look no further than Villa Stella, a 340-m² property for 12, set in a rural idyll close to Massa Lubrense. It is just a short walk to the centre of town (500 m) while the faster-paced town of Sorrento is around 4 km away. The views from the villa are truly spectacular, sweeping across a characteristic landscape of terraced hillsides carpeted with olive and lemon groves, and beyond Massa Lubrense towards the Bay of Naples.
The villa comprises two sections: the main house and a 17th-century Saracen tower. Both sit in attractive gardens with a small above-ground plunge pool (3 x 5 m) with sea views. The first terrace (terrace 1), accessed from the ground floor living room, has tables and chairs, a pizza oven and barbecue. The living room leads into the laundry area.
On the first floor, the second living room has a dining table for 12 and is situated next to the kitchen. Two first-floor terraces provide more outdoor space. The first (terrace 2) is accessed from the second living room and has a table and sofas. The other (terrace 3) is accessed via a flight of 18 stairs from terrace 2 and has a gym area, a hot tub for four and sun loungers.
