Palazzo della Storia is a remarkable villa, achieving the unusual feat of delivering an ultra-glam experience in a historic 17th-century residence. It’s been part of the same family for almost four centuries and their passion for the property is almost tangible. It’s all the more remarkable for its location, just 300 m from central Amalfi’s Piazza Flavio Gioia. Access to the villa is from the piazza, via 300 steps or in the public lift (from 8 am to midnight).
Extending over 300 m², the villa boasts two terraces. Sip your morning espresso, feast al fresco or relax back in the lounge chairs on the first (150 m²) of two terraces, with mesmerising views over the sea and Amalfi town. A second terrace, accessed from the living room, dining room and bedrooms also provides sea views as does the jacuzzi (3 x 2.3 m).
Interior spaces are every bit as ravishing, featuring high, vaulted ceilings, exquisite furniture and distinctive Amalfi coast style. Communal spaces include a living room with double doors through to the dining room and a sleek glossy white kitchen with colourful ceramics. The utility room has a guest bathroom with toilet and sink.
