Sun-Kissed Cerulean

Holiday Rental Description

Deep blues, sunshiney yellows – how can you not think of the sea when you see these shades? Taking inspiration from Sorrento's nearby harbour and rocky beach, the design of this second-floor apartment is as bright and cheery as the surrounding neighbourhood. There's no doubt it's stylish, but it's also packed with modern amenities that make your stay a dream, from rainfall showers to a kitchen where you'll love rustling up Italian feasts. We adore the quirky touches here, too – our favourite is the stone wall in the shower, which uses the rocky facade of the mountain.

Did we mention the two sun-kissed balconies? Both offer excellent spots to breathe in the coastal breezes and bask in Sorrento's good weather. Whether you're dining alfresco under the shady parasol or sharing a bottle of Italian wine on the outdoor sofas, this is the place to sit back, relax and fall in love with Sorrento.

Location-wise, you can't do much better. Beaches, eateries and shops are all just steps away. Take a stroll along the postcard-pretty marina in the mornings, followed by lunch at a waterfront restaurant. Do some sightseeing in the historic centre in the afternoons, including a wander around Piazza Tasso and a stop off at the Cattedrale dei Santi Filippo e Giacomo. You're also about an hour or so drive from Naples and Pompeii – perfect for day trips.

Home truths:
*At full occupancy, two guests will sleep on a sofa bed in the living area
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot free of charge – please request when booking
*This home is on the second floor and doesn't have a lift – it's also set over two levels, so it may not be suitable for those with limited mobility
*There isn't a washing machine here, but there are a few self-service launderettes in Sorrento
*Parking may not be included, but a car isn't needed here – much of the city is within walking distance, and the bus station and train station are nearby
*The host does not provide a welcome pack so you'll need to bring your own essentials
