Vista Serena and Italy Perfect a great combo
by Andrea WolfWe were very pleased with our 60th birthday get away at Vista Serena. The Italy Perfect folks were very helpful and once we made it to Vista Serena all the team there were fantastic. We were greeted by our hosts who was just delightful and help in any way she could to make our stay wonderful. The first night she recommended a wonderful family-owned restaurant up the street for dinner. We visited it a number of times. The local market within walking distance was very helpful to keep us stocked of food for our family of 8 as well as stopping into the clothing linen shop that has been there for over 80 years was also a win! We did have to utilize the ride service quite a bit we all agreed that was better than trying to drive the curves of the Amalfi, not to mentioned it made it so everyone could enjoy Limoncello. Since we had 8 family members we would have needed a very large van and none of us would have wanted to drive that on the Amalfi. So highly recommend Private Day Tours by Gianluca! He was very accommodating and willing to try to get us a car when we needed it spur of the moment. I will say taking the local taxis from Sorrento was easy to get back to the Villa and a bit more cost effective as long as you knew exactly how to tell them to get to the villa, the castle on the hill finally did the trick as a landmark for most. We would love to come back and enjoy the beautiful Villa and wonderful linen sheets as well as see our host.

"Over the moon" with our villa!!!
by Sally & JohnThis review is for the neighboring apartment with the same management: We were absolutely "over the moon" with our gorgeous villa, the beautiful grounds and gardens, and the amazing staff! And, well, then there are the incredible Galli Islands right in front of you... The villa is impeccably maintained by the attentive, friendly staff, and they worked hard to be sure all our requests were met. The location of the villa is ideal - walking distance to a few local restaurants and a delightful cooking school (Antico Casale), a short drive to Sorrento, and also close to Positano. There is a terrific car service/tour service (PrivateDayTours.com) which we used extensively. The service is actually located in Piano di Sorrento. Our 4 weeks at Vista Galli flew by - it was a perfect vacation in every way.
