Paestum 501

If you love a holiday on the Amalfi Coast but you are looking for something new, a little bit off the beaten tourist path, and with fewer tourist crowds to contend with during your vacation in Italy then we have to recommend the Cilento Coast. Located just around the corner from Naples and the Amalfi in the province of Salerno in Campania, the Cilento Coast is part of the Cilento and Vallo di Diano National Park with the Archeological Sites of Paestum and Velia, and the Certosa di Padula. It is, therefore, both an area of immense natural beauty and home to some truly incredible historical sites and cultural attractions. That it was made a UNESCO World Heritage in 1998 can come as no surprise and for those who find a villa in Campania and are looking for things to see and do in the region, it offers endless opportunities for beauty, leisure, and excitement. Whether you want to visit astounding ancient ruins perched on cliffs overlooking the sparkling Mediterranean, you want to hike through lush green surroundings that have remained perfect and untouched by man, you want to visit some of the most idyllic beaches in all of Italy, you want to zipline high over stunning valleys, you want to hang out on a boat and enjoy a lazy day bobbing on the water, or you want to indulge in classic local dishes made with incredible regional produce, then this is the place to go!

The 50km stretch of coastline in the southern region of Campania in Italy that is the Amalfi Coast is one of Italy’s best-known and most beloved tourist destinations and for good reason. Those looking to truly escape the mundane routines and surroundings of daily life and leave their stresses and worries behind would be hard pressed to find a location as truly idyllic as this stunning part of the world. Book a villa on the Amalfi Coast and expect impossibly blue waters, pretty little beaches, pastel-coloured fishing villages, thrilling winding roads along rugged cliffs, fragrant lemon groves, and much more besides!
