About this property

Limoneto degli Angeli, authentic Amalfi Coast experience among the lemon trees

From a family summer home to an American film set!
Il Limoneto degli Angeli offers its guests an ancient eighteenth-century tenement, modernly renovated, equipped with an enchanting lemon garden, with a panoramic view of the town of Minori and the Mediterranean Sea. The interiors are furnished with artistic Vietri majolica floors, and are equipped with all the necessary comforts for a relaxing stay.

Our beloved garden is home to timeless calm, authentic scents and the magic of the Amalfi Coast thanks to its renowned lemons cultivated with love and dedication by our family for 20 years. Sitting and relaxing in the garden, pampered by the silence of nature and the evocative panorama, will be for our guests a pure and authentic way to fully enjoy their Amalfi experience.
In March 2019 we dealt with a group of "special" guests, welcoming an entire film crew that chose the Limoneto as a set in which to set the film "In Keaton's lemon garden". This ambitious project, centered on a tormented love story between two different cultures in the shadow of our lemons, will be nominated for 2 of the most important independent overseas festivals!

Il Limoneto can be reached on foot in just a few minutes from the town center. On the Minori seafront there is the main bus stop and the port where the ferries leave: our guests can explore the whole Coast by land and by sea! Public transport is also well connected with Sorrento, Salerno, Naples and Pompeii.
The entrance road to Limoneto is located at a local panoramic bus / shuttle stop in service for the whole day.
Minori is a strategic choice for a stay on the Amalfi Coast: it is in its full center and retains the charm of authenticity not contaminated by tourist overcrowding. Small and picturesque, it is also renowned as the "City of Taste" for the excellence of catering and local gastronomic proposals.

Lovely place to stay

We had a wonderful stay here. Minori is a perfect base for a family holiday on the amalfi coast- far less busy and touristy than amalfi itself, with good restaurants and bars and a legendary cake shop. The welcome we received from Mario and his family at Limoneto degli angeli was delightful -and the house itself is very comfortable and cool - especially welcome on a hot day. We loved being able to sit on the shady terrace under the lemons during the hottest parts of the day, with its stunning sea view. perfect.

Beautiful views of Minori

Lovely old property located above Minori accessed by steps which definitely keep you fit. Lovely terrace (shared) with stunning lemon trees and seating to enjoy views particularly In warmer days . Sadly it was too chilly during our April stay to benefit from this in the evenings but we did take advantage on our last morning enjoying family time there .The house inside is quite small for 2 adults and 2 large teenage boys - I would say there is too much furniture to enjoy the space. The front door brings you straight into main bedroom which was strange . The room is nice but there is no black-out curtain which meant the outside light shone into the room which made falling asleep difficult if you are not used to light . The bathroom is very small and dated and shower quite restrictive but it was ok for our short stay . The hosts are onsite and very welcoming and pleasant and on our last day they kindly brought us croissants and some homemade limoncello which were delicious . The house is a great location for exploring Amalfi and we loved Minouri with its lovely bars and restaurants and not as crowded as other places on Amalfi .

Loved our stay in the Limoneto

We had a wonderful stay in Mario’s place- the lemon garden was magical, Minori charming and still authentic. Mario really went out if his way to ensure we had a great stay. We enjoyed meeting his parents and even got to experience the lemon harvest. Location was perfect for us, and we even managed to persuade the kids to walk up twice to Ravello. Highly recommended!

Our Wonderful Stay at Limonetto

We had a wonderful stay here. Mario had great communication before we arrived. When we did arrive we were met by Mario’s parents who showed us where to park for €10 a day (just round the corner). We then went and spent time with Marios parents in the apartment. They showed us around the lemon garden, showed us round the apartment and where everything was kept. The greeted us with home made lemonade and also let us try some typical Italian lemon salad. We met them a few times throughout our stay and they were so loving and kind. Couldn’t fault the place. There are lots of steps but this is typical for the Amalfi Coast. We walked to the next town Maiori and spent a day at the beach there (although there is one in Minori also). We took the bus to Amalfi, (10-15mins) and the from there, took the bus to Ravello (15mins) total cost €2.20. We then walked down from Ravello to Minori and the path literally went past Limonetto front door. It was gorgeous views. One night we cooked dinner and ate out on the terrace, it was lovely! Very peaceful place and would stay at Limonetto again.

Wonderful stay in the lemon grove

We had a great stay at Mario and family’s place in the lemon grove! I cannot say enough good things about the host family…they really went above and beyond. Even after many unexpected delays in getting there, they still met us and showed us the way to the house and then showed us around the place. They left some goodies for us, which really was a sweet gesture and left us with a good feeling after a somewhat frustrating day. It changed our moods and cheered us all up once we met them and found how gracious they were. And what a character-filled house. It was very comfortable and charming. The lemon grove was beautiful. It was by far our favorite vrbo on our trip. We would have loved to stay longer. The town is pleasant and doesn’t feel touristy. There are several spots to eat and to grab some groceries. My kids could have spent all day on the beach finding cool rocks and watching the waves. There are several steps involved in getting to the place, which will help work off all the carbs you will eat :) And the walk is very beautiful and interesting. We highly recommend this place and would go back if we are ever fortunate enough to get the chance!

Limoneto with beautiful garden

We loved the garden at Limoneto. It was so relaxing to sit under the lemon trees and look out at the Mediterranean Sea. It seem to be a bit of a hike up the hill, but once we discovered the secret stairs going down, it only took five minutes to get to the beach. It’s advisable to take the Golf Cart service up the hill though. There are lots of stairs leading to the villa, but by the third day, we were used to the stairs and actually enjoyed the exercise. Mario is a great host and provided lots of useful contacts for a day of voting and for drivers. This is a lovely property owned by a lovely family.

Beautiful property with amazing hosts

This gorgeous property exceeded our expectations! We immediately fell in love! Mario and his family were the most gracious hosts. Every single time I sent Mario a message to ask questions, I received a response in minutes. The lemon grove on the property was beautiful and it smelled so lovely. My teenage daughter fell in love with the property’s cat, Eduardo. I seriously considered sending my husband and two teenage daughters back to the US and staying a couple of weeks alone at the property because it broke my heart to have to leave this amazing place.

Amazing views, clean, stocked with items for meals and coffee/tea. Greeted at the home by the family along with homemade limoncello from their own lemons. This drink was fantastic! They helped us with a porter and taxi service. Used What’s app which was convenient. Hospitality was amazing! Everyone should visit! Wonderful family.

Serene and authentic

Located on the side of a hill, overlooking Minori and the sea is this gorgeous little apartment with a grand terrace. We spent 12 days here, mornings on the terrace eating breakfast and evening drinks before dinner. Hosts were welcoming and available and full of surprises. The village small and we soon were on buon giorno greetings with the locals. Great restaurants and pastry cafes and ferry access to all the other Amalfi coast towns made visiting the area easy. Coffee, tea and staples were complimentary at the Limonata. So made Day 1 easy to settle in. Loved it to bits.

Lemontopia

If you have spent hours pouring over where to stay in the Amalfi coast like we did, searching for a little slice of heaven to take your family to, then Villa Limoneta is it. Words fail to describe the beauty and magic of this place. We are seasoned travellers (travelling with 2 kids under 9 and one senior) accustomed to luxury and/or humble stays. The home was humble but very much loved which you could easily see by the attention and care paid by the host. You have every modern amenity (even a/c and washer that you don’t typically expect to see in Italy and it was the perfect location / town to see everything on the coast without the tourist crowds. We arrived and were warmly greeted by the Hosts (Mario and family) with gifts. Communication was always prompt, informative and friendly and the apartment was very clean with comfortable beds and adequate space. I should mention the stairs; for older seniors in the heat wave we experienced (36) it may be a bit of a challenge but the kids and us loved it and the pay off at the top was well worth it. This villa is set high on top of the mountainside amidst an ancient lemon tree grove with views of the ocean. To say it is surreal is an understatement. Every chance we got, we had wine with lemons hanging over our heads, scenting the ocean breeze. Just incredible. My little girl nicknamed this villa Lemontopia; I second that and add heaven. We will surely be back. Grazie mille Mario and Family!

A small little paradise

The location is perfect! Mario and his family were gracious hosts. They are generous and so incredibly helpful. The house is on the stairs to Ravello, the lemon trees are so beautiful, and the view is breathtaking. We visited other towns, but Minori is where the real charm is. If we ever find ourselves back in Minori, I wouldn’t want to stay anywhere else!

Can we give more than 5 stars?!

Wow! We were welcomed with open arms and loved the home baked goods. We even received a personal trip to the grocery store. The property is so charming with many thoughtful touches throughout. Perfect location, close to the stairs to Ravello, lemon walk to Maiori, the beach and many delicious restaurants. The lemon garden overlooking the town and coast was a perfect way to start and end each day. Minori’s quieter port makes it the best place to ferry hop along the coast. We are looking forward to our return…soon. Gene & Claudia

Comfort in the lemon garden

We had a great stay here. Mario and his family were so friendly and welcoming. The house is comfy and clean. Although the two twin bedrooms are small, our adult children and dad (granddad) managed just fine. Definitely take a taxi to the house (to the stairs directed by host). The house is a short distance from the town centre, which makes for pleasant walk after dinner etc, but would have been difficult to drag luggage if we had arrived on the ferry. The garden at the house makes the stay even more enjoyable. As did the homemade lemonade and other welcoming treats from the host. And really don’t miss the outdoor shower. It is truly refreshing after a long day of walking and swimming and eating.

Magical House with Amazing Views and Lemon Garden

Our family had an amazing week stay at the limitato house. The house has everything you need and I cannot say enough about the hospitality Mario and his family showed us. We were gifted with a can of tomatoes from their garden, spaghetti, olive oil, cofee, cakes, and they brought us some homemade limoncello. The lemon garden is beautiful and our kids enjoyed picking the lemons to make fresh lemonade. In the afternoons we would sit out in the garden overlooking the amazing coast! Minori is a wonderful city and staying at the limitato house made our vacation amazing! Thank you Mario

Home away from home....actually nicer than home

Fantastic apartment in the quiet town of Minori. Great location with easy access to paths, trails, ferries and public transportation. Practically in the middle of the Amalfi Coast, it was easy and quick to get to Positano and Salerno, and everything in between....and up. Minori lacks the " tourists" making a nice quiet place without lines and noise. Perfect place to relax and recharge. Mario and his family were the best hosts we have met.

Simply wonderful

We really enjoyed our stay at the limoneto and Minori. The hosts are very friendly and helpful, Mario's father even picked us upfrom the bus station. They welcomed us with homemade lemonade and fruits and vegetables from their garden. One evening, when we came home, we found delicous cakes on our doorsteps. The appartment has everything you need to cook and relax.The absolute Highlight ist the terrace with the lemontrees and a wonderful view over the sea. We even enjoyed walking up the stairs after eating in one of the very good restaurants. So we all had wonderful holidays and are already dreaming of coming back again!

Unter Zitronenbäumen

Charmante und gut augestattete Wohnung mit grossem Zitronengarten und tollem Meerblick. Der Strand und das Städtchen sind in wenigen Minuten über rund 260 Treppenstufen erreichbar. Alternativ fährt ein Shuttlebus ganz in die Nähe, aber auch von dort gilt es noch einige Treppenstufen zu überwinden. Wir wurden sehr herzlich von den Gastgebern mit selbstgemachter Lemonata empfangen. Der Kontakt zu den Gastgebern ist unkompliziert und sie stehen jederzeit unterstützend zur Seite. Parkplatz (ziemlich teuer) unbedingt vorher anfragen, da es im Ort fast keine öffentlichen Parkplätze gibt und diese noch viel teurer wären. Wir können uns sehr gut vorstellen hier noch einmal Urlaub zu machen!

Long Awaited Vacation in Amalfi

Limoneto was a fabulous place to stay for our family vacation. The 5 of us stayed their for 2 weeks, and while we left for a bit to visit family in Avellino, we used our Minori home base to relax and go off on day trips. We met both Mario and his family, wonderful people who made us feel at home. The house was exactly what we were looking for--a wonderful patio to enjoy morning coffee and an evening drink for the end of the day. The rooms were clean and inviting, we even took advantage of the outdoor shower on a few occasions. The downtown Minori area had enough to meet our needs, yet feel like the small town that it is. I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't return someday.
