Property Summary
Nestled on a hillside above the bay of Positano, Italy, Palazzo Santa Croce is a magnificent historic residence distinguished by its striking burgundy facade and an extraordinary layered history that spans several centuries. Originally built as a monastery, this exceptional villa evolved over time into a treasure trove of art, culture, and architectural beauty, enriched from the 18th century onwards by rare and precious objects brought from the Middle East and other corners of the world, a legacy of Positano's strategic position along the ancient trade routes of spices, silk, and imported goods. The merchants who passed through left not only works of art but also a profound blend of cultures and traditions from ancient civilizations, all of which remain visible in the villa's remarkable décor. From the early 20th century, Positano became a haven for artists, and one of the most notable residents of this villa was Edward Ghillausen, a member of the Bauhaus movement, the celebrated German artistic and philosophical school, who lived here with his wife until the year 2000. Their presence, and that of the artists and literary figures who visited them, added yet another layer of cultural depth to this already extraordinary property. Throughout every room and corridor, you will breathe art and culture in an atmosphere that is as intellectually stimulating as it is visually captivating. The villa accommodates guests across 4 suites and 1 single room, offering a level of comfort and refinement consistent with a 5-star luxury hotel. Included in the holiday experience are a daily butler and housekeeper service, continental breakfast, and a full suite of utilities. Wireless internet connectivity via Wi-Fi is available throughout the property, ensuring you remain connected while enjoying the timeless surroundings. The villa features an indoor heated pool with Jacuzzi, and the grounds include a garden adorned with orange and lemon trees and bougainvillea, offering a sensory immersion into the colors and fragrances of the Amalfi Coast.

From the main entrance, you step directly onto a grand terrace where the panorama of Positano and the sea unfolds before you in all its splendor. This terrace is elegantly furnished with ancient tiles depicting sacred scenes, terracotta vases of varying dimensions, and comfortable sofas that invite you to linger and absorb the scenery. The terrace connects through 3 separate entrances to the kitchen, the dining room, the lounge, and the staircase, making it the natural heart of the villa's communal life. On the lower floor, access is provided to a terrace with a solarium and an outdoor Jacuzzi, a perfect setting for relaxing in the open air while enjoying the warmth of the southern Italian sun.
