We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Villa Isabella in Minori, Italy! Emanuela communicated with us the day before and while we were driving, making arrival stress-free.
Since parking in Minori is limited, we parked in Maiori at Hotel San Francesco (Villa Isabella’s owners). Angelo unloaded our bags into a 4-person Piaggio Ape trike, parked the car, and shuttled us to Villa Isabella just minutes away, carrying all four bags up the stairs while we walked slowly behind him. He is hands down the hardest-working bellman we’ve ever met. Anytime we needed the car, Angelo arrived within five minutes—amazing service.
Villa Isabella’s location is perfect—right in front of the beaches and central to everything. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and offered lovely views of the ocean and town. The balcony and terrace were perfect for relaxing, enjoying wine, and watching the sunset—a very romantic setting. Martina at Hotel San Francesco arranged our day trip to Capri, which was fantastic. The ferry took us past the Faraglioni di Mezzo (o Saetta) for photos, circled the island, and docked at Capri. She also recommended two of Minori’s best restaurants, Taberna 33 Bistró and Ristorante Giardiniello Minori – Costa d’Amalfi, noting that dropping her name would guarantee a reservation. We loved our stay and would return in a heartbeat. From communication and staff service to location and comfort, everything about Villa Isabella was exceptional. Highly recommended!
