The villa is lovely - nicer in person than the pictures show. Anna could not have been more accommodating or communicative. She welcomed us with the most beautiful cake baked by her mother and a variety of goodies. The house is well stocked and very comfortable. The patio is just glorious to sit out and admire the most beautiful view of Capri. The pool is a welcome relief on a hot day - and aircon at night is just a blessing to help you sleep. Nothing was too much trouble and Anna offered guidance on local boat services as soon as I asked. She even offered to go to the pharmacy when my son wasn't feeling well. I cannot recommend this house enough - so relaxing and lovely. Extremely clean and well cared for, with a kitchen clearly used by people who love to cook with every appliance and convenience. Thank you for allowing us to enjoy a little slice of paradise for the week.

Luisa and her husband live in the adjacent detached property on site. Luisa is a truly wonderful host. You are welcomed with such warmth and a daily morning daily morning beaming smile. There is a genuine desire to ensure you are equipped with everything you need to enjoy your stay. Luisas English was way better than my Italian, but using Google translate really helped with communication. We had a fantastic stay here, thank you Luisa.
Property
Beautifully 3 bedroom, all en-suite property with small outhouse that has a sofa bed and en-suite shower room securely co-located up a shared driveway.
Million dollar view of Capri is difficult to beat.
Location
Via Spito, Annunziata, a hillside oasis away from the tourist hustle. But close enough for easy access.
It is an advantage to have a car. The bus stop is a 10-15 min walk.

The house was beautiful it felt more like a home than a holiday rental it had everything you could want and more. The views of Capri were amazing. We took a recommendation of the host Anna, preparing dinner for our first night when we arrived. it had been a long day so was lovely to just relax at the house and enjoy the views on the patio and have dinner cooked for you. The food was amazing and delicious, it actually was enough food for two days, so we’ll worth the money, highly recommend it.
We took a boat tour, which Anna kindly arranged for us, to the island of Capri which we would also highly recommend. While on the island we went to the Blue caves, which was a lovely experience and we were lucky as the queue was very short. We recommend going up the mountain on the chair lifts, great views and a great experience. There was a restaurant at the top were you could get food and drinks. Positano and Pompeii are worth a trip.
Highly recommend Villa Luisa, couldn’t say anything bad about it. :)
We had a wonderful time in Luisa’s villa. Luisa, Anna and the family were all very welcoming and friendly. We were so grateful that our late arrival due to a hire car disaster (no car) was met with smiles, provisions in a well stocked cupboard and beautiful, much needed wine! A fantastic destination and lovely helpful people. Thanks for the lift to the bus stop Luisa x
From the moment we arrived we felt so relaxed with a fantastic view and such welcoming hosts. Luisa and her husband Mario couldn’t have done more to make our stay any better. The villa is furnished with care and is well situated. We used public transport and walked to beaches and Massa Lubrense. The whole experience was a dream and the coastline was beautiful. We loved every second thanks to Villa Luisa.

Great location and view, very comfortable
Well kitted out. Great hosts. Even baked us a cake! Good local restaurant. You do need a car. Couldn’t fault it.
We had the most wonderful stay at Villa Luisa. My husband and my two teenage children and I spent a few nights (we wish it were longer) at Villa Luisa. The owners were so helpful setting up a boat tour to Capri and dinner at a wonderful restaurant down the street. We also had a homemade meal by Luisa the first night we arrived. It is a gorgeous villa with everything one would want including amazing views. Large bathrooms, a great living room and a huge, well appointed kitchen all make this a great spot. The property is charming as well.Communication was easy and extremely helpful throughout our trip. This really is a wonderful property with delightful owners. We hope to return!
The villa was very clean and the sunsets over Capri are spectacular!!! Anna took care of all our needs from transportation to dining recommendations. We even had an authentic, tasty dinner upon arrival. Great homebase to explore Amalfi Coast and Sorrento. Bellissimo!!!!
My husband and children (20's) stayed here for 3 days the last days of Sept. into Oct. We arrived at 2 pm from Rome, took one look at the villa and decided we were spending the rest of the day on the terrace. It was perfect! A much needed respite after our time in Rome.
Anna is an amazing hostess. The reviews are all correct - she is an expert at arranging tours, taxis, reservations, etc. We ate at a Michelin star restaurant 100 meters away. We should have gone back the next night but didn't.
We took advantage of a homecooked meal on our arrival night, and it did not disappoint. We ate the leftovers on our last night at the villa.
The villa itself is as lovely on the inside as the outside (which, again, is stunning). My husband and I loved having double sinks in the bathroom after the closet of a bathroom we shared in Rome. I would stay here and rest for days if I could. You do need to allow for travel time to Sorrento to go anywhere on the Amalfi Coast, as it was a 40 minute drive.
Villa Luisa was the highlight of our trip to Italy!
Fantastic place and most welcoming. Beautiful views and thoughtful owners. Sofia was most helpful arranging boat tours/ dinners and providing information.
We couldn't have loved our stay more! Anna, Luisa and Sophie were incredibly helpful in every way from booking excursions, dinner reservations and overall recommendations for the area. They helped us with drivers who were amazing...thank you Roberta & Salvatore! The home was absolutely beautiful with views from the deck that were breathtaking! We would recommend and definitely come back! Thank you so much ladies for a lifetime of memories!
Très belle villa avec plusieurs terrasses donnant sur une vue magnifique de l’île de Capri.
Accueil très chaleureux de la propriétaire qui nous a fait sentir chez nous dès notre arrivée.
Je recommande fortement cette superbe villa.
Anne
We stayed at Villa Luisa with three teenagers. The property was pristine and exactly as described. Anna and Luisa were welcoming and responsive. Anna set up airport transfers and drivers as needed. The property was peaceful, yet accessible to the area. The villa is an easy walk to La Torre restaurant. We enjoyed the pool every afternoon. We rented a car, but driving is pretty intense. If you do not have a car just be prepared to spend $40-50 for a ride to Sorrento. Recommend visiting the marina and eating at Angelo’s. We took two boat tours out of Marina Lobra which provided taxi service. Highly recommend Villa Luisa!!
We concluded our two weeks in Italy with four great days in the Sorrento area. This property is about 15 minutes outside of Sorrento. The property and owners were fabulous. The views of Capri could never grow old. A/C worked great. The property is spacious and comfortable. Getting around is about of is a bit of a challenge.. bus is not too far and inexpensive.. car / taxi are expensive €70 at night to Sorrento.. but the pool was a great benefit .. kitchen well equipped. All in all a great place to be !
My family (husband and 2 college kids) spent a week here. It has a beautiful view and is the cleanest place I have ever stayed. Mama Louisa really takes pride in keeping her place clean.
Unfortunately we did not get to spend as much time here as I would have liked because there was a rare, freak, water main break in a town far away which left us without water for two days. While this was a huge inconvenience because this was the time we had chosen to do our laundry, the hosts tried their best to make things comfortable for us. We were not the only ones uncomfortable, restaurants could not open and the water main break shut down the entire island of Capri so we were thankful to have a clean place to stay. Many people had vacations ruined because of the situation. We just went to Sorrento and spent the day because that city had water. Since our time at the house was cut short, I we will just have to return in order to really enjoy the property and the hosts.
Anna went out of her way to make sure I checked everything off my bucket list, cooking classes, lemon tours, a private boat tour around Capri, Almalfi coast tour and a private driver to and from Naples. She was the best and I really mean the best. I was probably a little too high maintenance for her, but she never complained.
The hosts take great pride in the plants outside and the grounds. The rooms were air conditioned
and clean and the kitchen was well equipped. Did I mention the view? SPECTACULAR!
Villa Luisa is a little slice of heaven tucked away in the splendor of Italy. Our family of four immediately felt welcomed and at ease. We absolutely loved that our hosts were close by to offer local guidance and support, while also allowing us to fully relax and enjoy our time in the area. Check in was smooth, and we were greeted with welcome goodies (homemade olive oil, yes, please!). The pictures do not do this place justice and we wish that we could have stayed longer.
Villa Luisa was more than we could’ve asked for and even better than the description online. This villa is spacious, clean, and the views are breathtaking! The hosts are exceptional and went out of their way to help and responded to our requests very quickly. You aren’t far from center city Sorrento & drivers to & from are excellent as well. We will return!! Oh & Luisa’s lemon cake was delicious!!
What an amazing stay!! The view was absolutely spectacular - even better than the photos. Anna, as well as her daughter Sophia, were so very helpful, and Mamma Luisa was a doll. The driver they arranged for, Raffaelle, made our Amalfi Coast drive very memorable. I can’t say enough nice things about this place - it was by far the best VRBO I’ve ever stayed at. Thank you, thank you!!
We had a beautiful stay at Villa Luisa. Both Anna and Luisa were very welcoming and extremely helpful. The villa is amazing with so much space for our group of 3 couples each having our own bedroom with ensuite. The hosts arranged our transport to and from the villa as well as a day trip along the Amalfi Coast which was amazing. The villa is in a very quiet town with an amazing view to Capri!
There is a bus just a short walk from the villa to take you to Sorrento. You will need to buy tickets from the little supermarket which is on the way to the bus stop. (The supermarket is closed on Sundays so you will need to buy your tickets on Saturday for the Sunday bus). Make sure you download the timetable for the buses or use the Moveit app.
If you had a car to use while staying here it would make things a little easier but the bus works well. A brochure for scooter hire and car hire is provided as well.
On arrival Anna showed us around the villa and explained where everything was and Luisa had made a beautiful cake. They were both so helpful and friendly with great advice for things to do and see.
Thank you for a wonderful stay and I would definitely recommend a stay in your beautiful villa!
Villa Luisa was everything and more. It was in a beautiful location overlooking Capri. We did not want for anything. From the moment we were welcomed to the moment we sadly had to leave we would have to say this was the best experience we have had at a Villa on VRBO. The kitchen was stocked with all the amenities and more. The hosts were incredible from the tours and drivers they booked for us, to the dinner they prepared for us. Deliziosa!! We would highly recommend Villa Luisa.
Villa Luisa is gorgeous! One of the best VRBO's we have ever stayed in. It is spotless, well appointed, comfortable, and in a convenient and peaceful location. We took easy day trips to Sorrento, Pasitano, Revello, Ischia (by ferry) and Maiori. Mama Luisa and Anna are great hosts, helping with everything from travel arrangements and dinner reservations to delicious meals prepared by Mama Luisa herself. This beautiful villa was a 10/10. We were disappointed when our time there came to an end.
The family was incredibly welcoming, helpful and thoughtful. The location was close to all you need, but just far enough away to be peaceful. An amazing location, property, house and experience. THANK-YOU!
