Just outside of Sorrento, this two-level penthouse apartment offers a super convenient location just 500 metres from the beach. While parking is a little tricky here, you can easily explore the local area on foot, with many restaurants and bars within walking distance. There are also great transport links to the Amalfi Coast and neighbouring towns and villages like Positano. The star of the show here is the private terrace, which offers beautiful views, a small private pool, an outdoor Jacuzzi bath and an alfresco dining area.

Home truths:
*This home is spread across two floors with lift access between them. There's also a ground-floor bedroom for those with reduced mobility.
*At full capacity, one guest will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the master suite. We think this bed would be bed suited to a child.
*The twin beds here can be pushed together to form a double bed. You'll need to request this in advance.
*You won't find a welcome hamper or basic essentials here, so we'd recommend packing some bits and bobs to get you started. The nearest supermarket is 600 metres away.
*Though there's no washing machine in the apartment, you'll find a shared laundry room in the basement.
