Villa Grà - Enchanting Villa overlooking the Sea

An ode to the beauty of the Amalfi Coast, Villa Grá is a stunning interior-designed holiday home with panoramic views over the sparkling Tyrrhenian sea. The name of this very special villa is taken from the Irish word for 'love', inspired by the roots of the Irish owner, and in its every corner this home shows love for its enchanting surroundings.

This stunning villa, with direct vistas over the bay and the local church belltower from many of the rooms, terrace and fruit tree-shaded garden, has just been fully restored to an exceptional standard. Hand-painted floor tiles in a typical Amalfi Coast pattern, bespoke paint colours, a hand-made kitchen and bespoke bathrooms with specialist finishes elevate the interior to a luxurious level, while honouring the crafts and landscape of the local area.

Painstakingly sourced antique and mid-century furniture and decorative pieces, from etched Murano glass pendants to beautifully restored Deco armchairs and original artworks bring a quality and attention to detail rarely found in homes available to rent.

The villa is organised over one floor:

• Raised Garden with sea view, shady fruit trees and sun beds & snooze chairs
• Large terrace with direct vistas over the sea and the local church belltower
• Dining Room opens onto terrace with dining table
• Charming living room with sofa, armchairs and TV
• Hand-made kitchen - fully equipped
• 1 double bedroom (bed size 160x190) with access to the main terrace
• 1 double bedroom (bed size 160x190) with infinity view of the sea
• 2 bespoke bathrooms, both with shower (1 ensuite to master bedroom)

Villa Grà is located in the heart of Praiano east side, off one of the typical small paths of the town. The villa is about 25 minutes' walk from La Praia beach, where the best fish restaurants are to be found. To reach the villa, guests will follow a path of about 200 metres, with about 60 steps. A porter service can be arranged (extra cost). The nearest private car park is about 500 metres away (local parking fees are charged).

Within walking distance, there are:
• Few restaurants (Moressa, Kasai, M'ama...)
• Grocery store and Butcher
• Local bus stop - about 50 meters
• SITA bus stop - about 500 meters
• Praiano main beach, La Praia (25 minutes on foot)

Enjoyed our stay

Enjoyed our stay, the apartment was so clean and instructions to find it / work everything were super clear. It was clear a lot of thought and care had gone into setting up the apartment, with everything you could potentially need and more being catered to within the apartment. The apartment itself has top end equipment, whether it was within the showersthe kitchen utensils and made it very easy to feel at home. Overall very impressed by the standard set and would recommend to anyone.

Fantastic Stay!

We stayed at Villa Gra in Praiano. The location is fantastic with a beautiful view of the sea from the very large and very private patio. The villa itself is clean, well maintained and seemingly newly renovated with high quality finishing and furnishings. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and spacious bathrooms. We definitely got lucky with this - a great find. There's a bus stop 2 minutes from the villa if you're lucky to catch one, which happened to us 3 times, it's much less expensive than a taxi. Some great restaurants in Praiano - no need to be in the busier towns for good dining if a quieter setting is what you're looking for.

Villa Grà in Praiano

We just returned from a lovely visit to Villa Gra and recommend it highly. The SMAAC website provides a wealth of information which is enormously helpful prior to departure and throughout the stay. Praiano is a gem away from the hubbub of Positano and Amalfi, with a handful of very good restaurants nearby. There are 40-50 very manageable, gradual steps to reach the Villa. The villa’s setting is very peaceful and the view of the coast from the terrace and from the master bedroom is spectacular. The villa decoration is exceptional with Murano light fixtures throughout, and with furnishings in the colors and style of the region. The equipment is state of the art, and in fact we had to read the manuals provided to address an error message on the AC and unlock the cooktop. Both Francesco and Rosa in the SMAAC office were very quick to respond. We used the villa as a base camp from which we hiked the Path of the Gods, and ventured over to Amalfi for the day. The family and dog in the adjacent property are a little noisy on occasion but as we were away much of the time, it was manageable and on one occasion SMAAC kindly phoned them. SMAAC was very helpful in arranging transport to/from the Villa to Naples. We give SMAAC very high marks for its professionalism and responsiveness, and recommend the Villa for an enjoyable stay.

Unbelievably Gorgeous

Francesco was so hospitable and checked on us daily and sometimes twice. The view was utterly incredible from the master bedroom and from a private, charming outside sitting area. The decor was beautiful and added to the warm inviting ambiance. Sleeping was easy as it was quiet and dark if you desired. It was hands down literally perfectly splendid! Can’t say enough about the beauty of the accommodations as well as Praiano. Anyone who gets to stay here is very fortunate.
