About this property
Set within a beautiful gated estate in Positano, Casa Galli invites you into a characterful oasis that effortlessly marries history and Campanian charm. Admire citrus trees and olive groves as you explore the cliffside setting with its shared swimming pool and access to a little beach below.
Casa Galli is set on the ground floor of a traditional Italian house on the edge of the estate, overlooking Positano's main beach. The interiors are simply enchanting with traditional furnishings, pretty fabrics and exquisite tiles alongside contemporary touches such as Wi-Fi and air-conditioning throughout. There are two en suite bedrooms, one with a king-size double bed, another with twin beds and doors opening to the main sea-view terrace.
Soak up the beauty of the Amalfi coast as you relax on your spacious garden terrace overlooking the sea with far-reaching views of the Galli islands. Pastries and fresh bread are delivered each morning, perfect for breakfast with a view, whilst additional services that can be organised at an extra cost include light lunches, wine-tasting and evening meals.
The location is quintessential Positano. Perched on the edge of the village in a cliffside setting, the gated domain (home to four other residences) is framed by Mediterranean flowers and incredible vistas. A shared swimming pool awaits within the grounds (where the old fountain base once was) and the estate enjoys private access to a little beach below, ideal for swimming in turquoise coloured sea. In July and August, a beach bar is set up on the bay to add to the summer ambience.
From the other end of the estate, it’s just a few minutes’ stroll to Positano’s main beach as well as cafés and restaurants, pretty boutiques and the winding pastel streets. Hiking enthusiasts will appreciate proximity to the famed Path of the Gods, while history and art lovers can wander to the nearby Archaeological Museum.
Back at your apartment, enjoy al-fresco meals on your terrace with the village lights twinkling nearby. Casa Galli radiates a sense of refined charm rooted in authenticity in a privileged setting on the Amalfi Coast.
A leisurely walk from the heart of Positano, Casa Galli is part of a beautiful gated complex (home to four other residences) built into the cliffside with the most wonderful sea views. You access the grounds on foot from the coastal road above, then follow the steep paths and steps down to your casa. All guests at the complex share private access to a little bay, reached via more rugged steps, an idyllic spot with sand and crystal-clear water (and a beach bar in the height of the summer).
Step outside and instantly feel the enchantment of Positano. Meander through narrow lanes where pastel-hued homes cling to the cliffs, vibrant bougainvillaea cascades over stone walls, and charming artisan shops invite you to linger. Within a short stroll, you’ll reach the iconic Spiaggia di Positano (750m), the village’s main beach framed by colourful summer parasols and chic beach clubs where you can sip cocktails to the sound of the waves. Slightly more exclusive, take the scenic walk to Fornillo Beach (1.2km), a calmer shoreline that offers space to unwind in serene surroundings.
From Positano’s postcard-perfect harbour, the Amalfi Coast becomes your playground. Board a boat to uncover hidden coves, swim in shimmering grottos or glide across the sea to the stylish island of Capri. Meanwhile, adventurous souls will relish the Sentiero degli Dei ("Path of the Gods"), a breathtaking clifftop hike delivering panoramic views of the coastline far below.
Thanks to Casa Galli’s superb location, exploring the wider Amalfi Coast by boat or car is a breeze. Journey to nearby Praiano for an authentic village vibe, discover Amalfi’s majestic cathedral and vibrant streets, or head up to Ravello, where music drifts through historic gardens perched high above the sea. Each town offers its own distinct charm, adding layers to your Italian escape.
If you crave a different rhythm, cross the peninsula to Sorrento. Just a day trip away, this elegant town captivates with its lemon groves, sweeping terraces and vistas across the Bay of Naples.
