It was a pleasure to spend a holiday in Naples at Il Piccolo Cru. Sandra and her daughter Marisa were lovely hosts. Marisa gave us a lot of fantastic tips including restaurant recommendations which made our stay in Naples even more pleasant. Il Piccolo Cru is a beautiful designer apartment located next to one of the best neighbourhoods of Naples. The apartment is much better then it looks on pictures. Furnishing is delightful, bed is great and kitchen is very cute. Ceilings are high and there are two large French windows with mini balconies from the bedroom and the living room so there is plenty of air circulation and no need to use air-conditioning. There is a lot of natural light inside but no direct sunlight which makes it pleasant and cool in hot months (we stayed in June). The building has 24/7 security and it is a very safe place. There is a lift in the building so getting in and out is effortless. The neighbourhood is full of restaurants, bars, cafes, shops, boutiques etc. We appreciated a local supermarket Carrefour in Vomero open pretty much 24/7 where everything on offer would satisfy even the most spoilt connoisseurs. The heart of Vomero which quickly became our favourite neighbourhood of Naples is only 10 min walk from the apartment. There is a metro station (Salvator Rossa) around the corner so all historic areas of Naples are easily accessible. You can also walk to the old town (about 25 min) or take 3 different funiculars (10 min walk) to 3 different spots in the city centre. Using funiculars is a really fun way of getting into city centre. Choosing to stay in and around Vomero is a much smarter option then staying in the city centre for many reasons. The location of Il Piccolo Cru is very smart indeed. Doing trips to Sorrento, Capri, Ischia, Procida, Pompei and Amalfi Coast is easily manageable. Il Piccolo Cru is a great base to explore the wonderful city of Naples and all attractions in its surrounding areas and islands. Thank you Sandra and Marisa for making Il Piccolo Cru our home in Naples! We’ll be back! Marko & Julia
