I had a wonderful time in Naples. Mauro and Grazia and their two boys are very welcoming, helpful and very nice people.

The place was spacious, clean and confortable. The room has a big bed and private terrace ideal for coffee in the morning overlooking Naples and the sea.

The living area and open plan kitchen is also spacious with plenty of seating areas and quirky decorations – absolutely amazing. There is another big terrace also overlooking the sea and the bay of Naples with barbeque, lounge chair and dining area. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to cook, some basics like pasta, olive oil, tea coffee sugar, etc… and even breakfast items.

Although the living room and big terrace are shared with the family, they give you plenty of privacy. You also have your own outside door.

The house is located half way down a very steep road ( Via Capodimonte). The bus ( C63) will drop you at the top of the road and you’ll need to walk down to the house. Other buses ( R4, 168, 178 ) will drop you a bit further back, but its only a very short walk. In my experience take the first bus that arrives as they are not very frequent. The area is very traditional, typical with old buildings and a great sense of community. A true Italian neighbourhood feel. There is a wine and vegetable shops at the top of the road where you can buy any basics. There is also two pizzerias, coffee shop and bakery. Going down the road to the city centre (only 10m walking) there is also a big market which sells food and clothes etc.

Mauro is a spectacular host. Always ready to help, and give you the best possible experience of Naples. He will advise you on the best spots to eat, see and drink. A true friend and I’ll be forever grateful.

Will definitely come back
