The property "La casa del Pittore" (the painters home), is owned by our host Fabrizio and his wife Georgia.
Fabrizio is an artist by trade and was born in this very property! He has a dedicated show room, but we are lucky that some of his pieces adorn the walls.
Such a beautiful man with a deep passion for his hometown of Napoli, he welcomed us this in arrival with traditional breakfast pastries and coffee. Totally unexpected but a wonderful treat!
Being warmed by the late summer sun, we sat and drank our coffee on the terrace, as Fabrizio took us through the details of a suggested itinerary he had prepared for us. He then followed with a story of an octopus he had caught only yesterday in the waters just off the coast here. Very cool!
The property itself is only minutes away from the buzzing Bellini Piazza, and the world renowned Naples National Archaeological Museum is literally just on the corner. It has all the amenities you need; a full kitchen, bath and shower, hair dryer, wifi, etc.
Fabrizio's hospitality is one of a kind. His was a great communicator and he even helped us arrange a private guide for our visit to Pompeii at the last minute. Allesandro the guide was fantastic as well!
I can't recommend this place enough. :)
