It is a beautiful place. Lucia is an amazing person and gave us all the information we needed. It is close to the bus station 10 min from Sorrento and yet very quiet and peaceful. Amazing view and the best break fast we've had. We enjoyed it very much and hopefully we will come back soon

There is nothing to complain - just be aware that it helps to have a car - or you can take the bus if you don't mind.

The breakfast is fantastic. There is an open room with a view to Capri, and the breakfast is complete with omelette, fruits, croissants and Italian coffee. One of the best breakfasts I ever had.

Nothing to add here

Everything was excellent during our stay! We are so happy that we had the chance to meet Mrs. Lucia, a person who radiates kindness and exudes so much warmth. We truly don't think we could have had a more wonderful host than her. The breakfast was amazing - so tasty, generous, and filling, we could never finish it all. Mrs. Lucia made sure we didn’t miss anything, and even on the day she had to take care of her husband, she still made sure that my sister and I had options for dinner that evening. She also arranged a boat tour for us to visit Capri on one of the days, and everything went perfectly. The rest of the staff who looked after us on other days were also very kind and welcoming. The villa looks like something out of a fairytale, you can tell it was carefully designed, full of beautiful flowers and charming arrangements that catch your eye. And Totto and the little cats filled our hearts with joy, they were absolutely adorable! Unfortunately, we didn’t get the chance to take part in Mrs. Lucia’s cooking class, but I’m sure it would have been an incredible experience; she is truly an exceptional chef. We wish Mrs. Lucia and her husband good health and continued strength, this kind of business is meant to be run by people like them. As for the location, Massa Lubrense is fine and well connected to Sorrento. The road could be a bit better, as it doesn’t have sidewalks, but even so, my sister and I managed without any major issues. Thank you for a wonderful stay! 🫶

Amazing stay at Villa Lorelei. Beautiful location with a view of the sea, sunset and the Capri island - a nice place to relax. My favourite part of the stay was the breakfast - the selection was brilliant, the quality of the food was very high and the setting was straight out of a travel book.

Excellent location! Excellent Host!! Excellent Chef!! Mamy Lucia was just exceptional, from the smallest of detail to make your stay as comfortable it could be. She was bang on! Literally felt like home, exactly how mother is, she is just amazing. Very warm, smiling throughout, very helpful, very knowledgeable. Coming again next year, and would stay back with her. Also, the best part about her villa is that the bus stop is right in front of her Villa, so commuting anywhere is not a challenge at all.

Nice hillside location with garden view of ocean and Capri. Short walking distance to road side restaurants and bus stop for short 10 minute ride into Sorrento. Eggs cooked to order with fresh local fruit, yogurt, croissants, bread and preserves with your favorite coffee choice all excellent. Enjoyed the company of the loving yellow lab on the patio. Host was very generous and treated us like family.

As mentioned by others: parking is not easy for a bigger car. With our Fiat 500 we just squeezed into a space beside the road, larger cars will likely be sticking out a bit. Having said that: although the road is bendy and people drive fast on it, at least the locals know how to drive, so the risk to your car is not great.

The location overlooking Capri and the sunset over the island was magical. The room with a terrace really overlooks the sea, the other room, while being slightly bigger does have a view on the sea, but not on Capri. Lucia is a very kind host, and a treasure trove of knowledge of the area; well worth doing what she proposes. The breakfast is very copious, keeps you going pretty much until dinner. The croissants and brioches especially are very good. Many sights, beaches and hiking possibilities are easily accessible from the property, at least at the beginning of November.

Arrived on 1st October, so the hot tub had been switched off. Although we were told we could use it. It actually didn't heat up.

Mama Lucia was a brilliant host. Very welcoming and accommodating.

Just one very minor thing. The ceiling in the room was a bit low.

Beautiful views! The room was clean and comfortable. Large grounds with lovely flowers and plants.

Nothing - the stay left us with big smiles on our faces.

Lucia and staff are so warm and welcoming providing you with everything you need and then some! Any question we had was answered immediately from recommendations to ironing(full service) to travel inquiries.

Balcony view was lovely, outdoor jacuzzi very welcome on arrival after a long hot day of travel. Breakfast very good. Room was clean and comfortable good to have a fridge. Bus ok into Sorrento but very busy time and buses very crowded.

Nothing. The room, property and location were perfect.

This is by far the best accommodation we stayed in on a 2 week trip around Naples and Amalfi Coast areas. Lucia was a warm and welcoming host and made us feel right at home. The room is located on the 2nd floor of Lucia's home, however we had full privacy in the room, key access and were able to enjoy both the private deck attached to the room as well as Lucia's large property anytime. Lucia operates a large-scale kicten beside the house which is where we were provided with a huge and delicious every morning. Conisdering a huge daily breakfast is provided, the price we paid was incredible value and worth every cent (€600 for 4 nights). We were the only people there aside from the many cats and dogs which made for a private and fun trip. There is a bus stop 50 metres down the road and costs less than €2 to get to Sorrento in about 10-15 minutes. For this reason, it is a great location for a private stay while also be close to Sorrento and walking distance to the closest beach. We would come back in a heartbeat!

Nothing, I enjoyed every part.

The property is one of a kind. The view is unbelievable and there is nothing like it.

Stayed in June 2024

Location is a bit tricky because it is right off a very tight roadway with buses, motorcycles, cars whizzing by.

A relaxing place to get away from tourists in Sorrento. Mama Lucia was very, very accommodating. The property was perfect for our trip. Fabulous eating- cooking space. One must take her cooking classes- a very fun evening had by all!! Staff was excellent. Morning breakfast was fresh and amazing.

Mama Lucia made our trip. From cooking us THE BEST homemade pizza, from offering us two lifts to Sorrento as the buses weren’t running, she was amazing.

We had an excellent stay. Lucia is a wonderful person and host, we immediately felt like at home. The rooms were comfortable, the breakfast was delicious. The sunset view is amazing. The villa is conveniently located, close to a bus stop and a very good restaurant just one minute walking distance.

Mama Luchia is a sweetheart. The room was very clean and comfortable. Her breakfast was delicious. Take her cooking class if you can! You will love!

The stay at Villa Lorelei was beyond expectations after the fantastic reviews that we read. It was a great base to explore the area, with good bus route links and a nearby trail to the nearest beach. Lucia, herself, was warm and welcoming. On arrival, we had lunch and wine, before recommending local places to visit. We always felt like we were part of a family home and the pets were an absolute bonus. Breakfast was prepared wonderfully and the views of Capri from her beautiful kitchen were a highlight. Couldn’t recommend more highly. Thank you Lucia, family and doggies!
