Villa Imperati - Splendid villa with private pool overlooking the sea
Villa Imperati is an exclusive luxury villa located in the most panoramic and peaceful area of Praiano, featuring a private sea-front swimming pool, a large terraced garden, and stunning open views over the Amalfi Coast. The property is designed for guests seeking generous spaces, privacy, and high-level comfort, experiencing the villa as a true Mediterranean retreat immersed in light and scenery.
The villa is set in a private area of the village and cannot be reached directly by car. Access is only on foot, via a scenic path of approximately 400 meters with about 100 steps, typical of Praiano’s layout. This requires some physical effort but guarantees silence, no traffic, and a strong sense of exclusivity, while remaining close to main services and points of interest.

LOCATION AND POINTS OF INTEREST
Villa Imperati is ideally located for guests looking for a quiet and panoramic base to explore the Amalfi Coast:
•Path of the Gods – direct access from the pedestrian path above the villa
•Main beaches (Marina di Praia and Gavitella) reachable via scenic walks or local transport
•Bars, restaurants, shops, and bus stops within a few minutes’ walk downhill
•Shuttle and bus connections to Positano, Amalfi, and other coastal destinations
Note: All services and points of interest are reached by going up or down steps, in line with the typical urban layout of Praiano. This is part of the authentic local experience but makes the property more suitable for guests accustomed to walking.
ACCESS AND PARKING
Villa Imperati is located in a pedestrian-only area and cannot be reached directly by car. Access is exclusively on foot via a scenic path of approximately 300 meters with about 100 steps. For this reason, the villa is not recommended for guests with mobility issues or those who do not enjoy walking and climbing stairs.
Upon request, a paid porter service can be arranged to assist with luggage.
•Private paid parking available on request at approximately 650 meters (advance booking strongly recommended, especially in high season).
•Public paid parking available at approximately 200 meters, not reservable and often crowded in high season due to limited availability.
GETTING AROUND
Thanks to its strategic location, Villa Imperati allows guests to explore the Amalfi Coast easily even without a car.
•Boat excursions from Praiano (Marina di Praia – approx. 1 km): the most scenic and relaxing way to reach Capri, Positano, Amalfi, and sea-access-only coves.
•Public buses (SITA and Local Bus – stop approx. 200 m): practical and economical, but often crowded and slower in high season.
•Private driver: offers flexibility and comfort; advance booking of at least one day is recommended.
•On foot: the most authentic way to experience Praiano, involving steps and elevation changes.
•Scooter rental: greater independence, recommended only for experienced riders on narrow and busy coastal roads.

Excellent Stay, Charming Location
The house and the property manager were excellent and helped us tremendously throughout our stay. It was nice to stay there and not in Positano, as Positano is extremely crowded. The little town in Praiano is very cute and has everything but the steps are treacherous to get back to the houseto get down to the main street.

Great Villa with stunning views of Positano
This house is beautiful and was a very nice place to stay in the heart of Amalfi. The access to the house requires a 5 minute walk with many stairs so definitely keep this in mind and try to arrange a porter to take your luggage if you have a lot to carry.

Wonderful Stay!
My family of five had a wonderful stay @ Villa Imperati. It was a perfect place for us to come back to and relax by the pool after venturing out all over the Amalfi coast. The views are breathtaking and there are so many great restaurants right near the villa - the location is great. Francesco was very attentive and helped us navigate our stay here and helped with arranging day trips and transportation which made our stay - stress free. 😊

Great stay in Praiano
Francesco was a great host. He was very responsive, and very helpful when it came to local recommendations and services. Check in was easy and the place was very clean with a great layout for a family. The kids loved the pool. Overall it was a great stay. One thing worth noting, it does take a little work to get to the closest store so bring your sneakers.we would definitely stay here again.

Best View and Nice Property even though finding the place and a lot of steps.
Dear Hangcheng, so happy to read that you appreciated the beauty of our accommodation. The steps and the stairs are the weak point and the strong point of our beloved Amalfi Coast: they allow you to reach breathtaking views. For this reason we indicate them in the details in the descriptions of our accommodations. We really look forward to host you again! Anna - SMAAC Amalfi Coast Team

Wonderful stay in Praiano
we loved our villa. Praiano is a gem. The management team was super helpful. The villa was spotless and the pool was refreshing.
Only area is the airconditioning the master does not cool that room. I would add supplemental air or add some fans.

Nice quiet stay with view of Positano
The property manager was great at always answering all our questions. Glad we used the Porter service for the stairs as it can be quite difficult if not. Overall great nice place with shops and bars close by. Just be prepared to make the trek down stairs and back up which can be quite difficult for older folks or those not in decent shape. Great communication!

Fantastisk utsikt och fint hus!
Det är många och långa trappor i Praiano och till huset gick det inte att köra fram med bilen men vi fick hjälp att bära fram våra väskor. Eftersom vi reste med stora barn så var trapporna inget problem. Huset hade en underbar utsikt och var fint! Huset låg i nära anslutning till trapporna som leder upp till Gudarnas Stig.

Paradise in Praiano
We loved every second of our stay at this property. We had two adults and 4 kids who were able to spread out and have our own space while also enjoying all the wonderful gathering spaces (like that beautiful pool!). The views of the coast were breathtaking. And whatever you need on or off the property, Francesco and his management company were extremely attentive. They helped us with restaurant recommendations, boat excursions, transportation to different activities, anything we could think of! They were so kind and helpful. This was a very special property and we hope someday to return to experience all the Amalfi Coast magic.

Praiano
Overall a great stay and good value for the price. As mentioned there is a lot of stairs but that is to be expected in this region. We had a hiccup with the pool but the manager was great and worked with us on that. He was very helpful and quick to respond with anything we needed. The house seemed to have all the essentials, the only thing I thought was missing is a espresso machine. We ate out all the time but that would have been nice for the mornings.

We had a wonderful time at Villa Imperati!
We loved the views, the beautiful architecture of the villa, the art work on the path ways, the people in the town of Praiano. Che Bonta, the cooking class down the street at Il Rifugio Dei Peccatori, the Kasai Restaurant, etc…
The Villa was somewhat difficult to get to but worth the walk and climb. Transportation to get anywhere is not overly easy, there is a walk/climb (paths and stairways) about half a mile to down to town and up to the villaacross to a street to meet cars. Requires luggage porting and drivers to get to most destinations, shoppingrestaurants. But it is a good work out and kick start to bring healthy work out when your vacation is over! :)

Wonderful!
Absolutely breathtaking views of Capri and Positano from the top of the villa. Pool wonderful in the heat. Trip of a lifetime. Norman was fantastic in his communication and helped book loads of restaurants and a trip to Capri - expensive but definitely worth it. Thank you Norman!
Porter strongly recommended for taking heavy luggage upto the property. Download the video or have internet so you know how to reach the villa - the streets are a bit of a maze.
5 stars.
Grazie mille!

Beautiful home!
The pictures don’t do this property justice! It’s beautiful and spotless. The views are incredible and the pool is perfect. Norman was a wonderful help—did an amazing job food shopping for us and talked us in when we got a little turned around at check in. Just know there are about 220 steps down to the Main Street, bust stop etc. it’s pretty steep and significant—granted all of the coast is this way. Get the porter at check-in. It’s just worth it. The home is lovely and Praiano is a delightful escape from the craziness, although a quick bus ride to everywhere.

Wow..What a villa and facilities in an excellent location!
We have just returned from 10 days at this villa in Praiano! Wow, this was a fabulous villa with all of the necessary amenities and in such a fabulous location. From the views, to the facilities to the pool (to cool off) and the overall homely feel, it was one of the best villas we have stayed at! Also, excellent support from Norman and the SMAAC team whenever we needed anything, any ask was actioned quickly and made the stay very comfortable! Thank you!
Nothing specifically from the villa or facilities. Just bear in mind the steps to walk to the village (around 190 vertical steps for most direct route). We used the longer route which was a hill walk but you still need to be mobile and fit!! The walking is worth it though! I would highly recommend the porter service for the bags and parking permit, helped tremendously. All can be booked through SMAAC

Villa Imperiati - Praiano
The villa was clean, spacious, well equipped, and as described. It was also in a fabulous location! The property management company was very easy to work with from beginning to end. While we chose not to use them to book any “extras” such as excursions, etc., we thought that was a very nice touch and would be quite useful for travelers seeking that type of vacation and those types of services. When we did have a “problem” (there was a power outage following a thunderstorm), it was handled immediately and professionally. We were also impressed that there was a level of trust and respect when it came to the check out process and our payment of occupancy tax, which we did not have (in cash) when we checked in...but because we had established a rapport with our management team throughout our stay, it was okay that we just leave the cash for the occupancy tax on the kitchen table as we departed. This made for a very easy check out day for us which we very much appreciated.
