Capri villa rental with pool near the Blue Grotto – Villa Il Gardino is a rare find, a private villa with pool in a garden setting that offers breathtaking views across the Gulf of Naples to Mount Vesuvius on the mainland. Tucked away on the edge of Anacapri, Capri villa rental Il Gardino is within walking distance of a restaurant, shops, beaches and the famous Blue Grotto and its crystal-clear waters, where you can swim after 5 pm. Add to that the high quality of the accommodation and you are sure to agree that this charming villa is a very special place indeed.
Villa Il Giardino has been owned by the same prominent family for decades and has been restored with excellent taste and attention to detail using a thoughtful blend of antique and contemporary furnishings. Partly air-conditioned, with televisions in every bedroom and a myriad of extra services available by arrangement, this house is ideal for those seeking total relaxation. The local restaurant is just a stone’s throw away, but if you prefer to eat in without having to cook, they will deliver to the villa for you. If you are also planning evenings out, a ten-minute drive will bring you to the legendary Piazzetta, which is the center of Capri for locals and tourists alike – the hub of the island. Boasting pavement cafes, elegant restaurants, glamorous shops and famous nightclubs, it is arguably the most fashionable square in the world.
Culturally there is plenty to do on Capri: the villa is only a ten-minute walk from a Roman archaeological site, of which there are several on the island, and there are film, dance and folklore festivals as well as live music and concerts by moonlight. If you like walking you can climb up Monte Solaro to reach the island’s highest point (or take the chairlift instead!) to enjoy stunning panoramic views. And one particular bonus offered to guests staying at this Capri villa rental with pool near Blue Grotto is the use of the villa’s car (see Extras below), giving you the freedom to explore Capri very easily. If you decide to travel further afield you can also take the car onto the ferry and visit some of the major attractions on the mainland: the Amalfi coast, Sorrento, Positano and Pompeii. Villa Il Gardino would make the perfect base for a truly unforgettable holiday in one of the world’s most stunning locations.
