The Garden of Capri

Step back into Capri’s golden age at this 1950s-style villa. Once a glamorous hideaway for film stars and socialites, it now hosts up to ten guests across a main house and a self-contained annexe. Inside, it’s all candy-coloured stripes, patterned tiles, draped fabrics, rattan furniture and columns – a charming blend of old-school elegance and laid-back island style. Our favourite part? The vast sea-facing terrace and lush botanical gardens, full of hidden corners perfect for quiet escapes. There's no air con on the upper floors, but with plenty of French doors and windows to let in the salty breeze, you might not even notice. And when you're ready for a change of scene, Marina Piccola beach and Capri’s historic centre are a short stroll away.

Home truths:
*The home is split between a main house and a lower-level annexe with its own street entrance, kitchenette, living space and three bedrooms.
*A separate outdoor washroom houses the laundry facilities.
*Only the annexe has air-conditioning, but the main house has plenty of windows and French doors to let in the sea breeze.
*While the home can sleep up to eleven people, the maximum occupancy is ten guests.
*Two of the bedrooms feature a double bed as well as a single bed – it's not the most private set-up, but perfect for families.
*One well-behaved dog is welcome to accompany you during your stay.
