Overview

International high-end travelers have been coming here since the 18th century and the enthusiasm seems not to have faded. The iconic landscape, the crystal waters, and the hospitality-ready towns are paired with the warm interaction of the locals, making the time spent here a memorable one. Near the town of Maiori, Zelaide is nestled inside a verdant lemon orchard, and it has been renovated to meet the needs of the modern savvy traveler. This 4-level villa offers great privacy, superb views, a private infinity pool, and all modern amenities for a comfortable summer retreat. Life is beautiful, especially here!

The villa is reachable via 55 steps from the main road, and a private path (200 meters) on which the guests can use the golf-car at disposal. The bus-stop is just outside the front gate, and from here it is possible to reach all the towns along the coast with public transportation (although not recommended in high season). The beach of Maiori is just a 5-minute drive away. In Maiori you can catch public ferries to Amalfi, Positano, and Capri.

LIVING SPACES

The villa floors are connected via stairs, 44 steps in total.

Ground Floor

The interior décor and furnishing of this house are traditional and they blend perfectly with the original architectural details: cotto floors, vaulted ceilings, and antique wooden doors. The result is a cohesive, fresh, and modern style.  On this level, the spacious bright living room, with fireplace and TV, opens onto the garden and the patio via two glass-doors. A full bathroom is also available.

Lower Level

A separate air-conditioned dining room, with fireplace and mezzanine, is conveniently adjacent to the fully equipped kitchen which also includes a breakfast area and a pizza oven. The dining room faces a furnished pergola for meals al-fresco. A guest bathroom completes this floor.

OUTSIDE FEATURES

The villa boasts an expansive manicured garden, two panoramic terraces to relax outdoors, and a vegetable garden. There are separate areas for dining, including BBQing, relaxing on a chaise lounge under the sun, or for conversations under the stars.

The furnished solarium features an infinity edge swimming pool which can be heated on request for a fee (8m x 4m, with whirlpool corner), and an outdoor shower.
