I don't even know where to begin... Suffice it to say that this was one of my best Airbnb experiences.
First things first - the host is easily the best host I've ever had. Antonella was perfect. From booking all the way through check in and check out - she was informative and communicative. She wasn't overbearing. She didn't share too much or crowd us but she was always always always available to answer questions or offer suggestions. We took her advice a couple times on destinations and the always paid off. She also drove down to pick us up at the entrance to the apartment park when our cab left us a bit far away - so thoughtful. She even texted us as we were leaving to mention that my partner left her skirt - and offered to mail it to us. She's the best - and even if the apartment the apartment wasn't the absolute stunning treasure that it is and if Naples wasn't a truly lovely place, we'd still want to return just because she was awesome. Luckily, Antonella comes along with a fantastic city, and...
...a truly stunning apartment. The photos come close to doing it justice. The terrace is larger than some outdoor patios at restaurants in New York. The place was clean and spacious and tidy. Antonella had everything there that we needed. Because of the cross breeze, you could open the windows/terrace doors and be completely comfortable on an 85-90 degree (Fahrenheit) day even without the AC. But there's two highly functioning AC units to keep it nice and chilly if you prefer. And man, that view... Absolutely breathtaking.
The location is also super cool. It's a 20-30 mins walk from the Teatro di San Carlo and the really interesting waterfront / historic areas. So you should know that. But getting access to those areas by cab or transit is super easy and quick (and the walk isnt bad either). But if you walk in the opposite direction, you really get to experience a different - more lived in / residential - side of Naples. The Vomero district is really lovely and has great shops and food and art. I'm really glad we ventured in this direction as well - we really appreciated the area much more once we did. Just be prepared for some steps :)
I would return again and again if my budget permitted. A perfect stay.
