Villa vacation rentals in Gaiola Island

Massimo is a wonderful host. Its obvious he enjoys welcoming guests. During our holiday, we kept asking for his advice and he was always on hand to help us. This made us feel very secure. On the practical side: When we arrived at the flat he had provided us with so many useful things like jams, bread, milk, olive oil, toilet roll, washing up stuff, shampoo and mosquito stuff. The only thing to note is that the flat is located in a Marina which is a slight distance from the 'town' of Vica Equense. There is a local bus that goes from the Marina but it's sometimes full. If any of your party have mobility problems then you need to consider that. We loved coming back to the peace of the Marina and its lovely restaurants.

Great hosting by Franca and her husband, very available and adorable! Ideally located accommodation because it is quiet while being close to Naples by transport (train 10 min walk from the accommodation then Naples center 15 min by train). Excellent pizzas right across!

Our travel plans to visit Naples had very specific requirements. We wanted to take the train instead of driving. We needed to leave the dog in the house while we were in Naples. Vincenzo’s place was absolutely perfect. It was a 10 minute walk to the train station and less than 30 minutes into Naples. The car had a secure enclosed parking area in front of the house. The house was clean with simple furnishings and super pet friendly including a protective scratch panel on the front door Most importantly Vincenzo was super responsive to communication. Anna greeted us, walked us through the house and checked in with us from time to time to see if we needed anything. The house super clean, spacious and quiet in spite of being off a main road. It’s close to the downtown with plenty of shops and restaurants. We highly recommend Vincenzo’s place especially if you’re traveling with a pet.

Antonino was a great help and responsive host. The place was super nice and we enjoyed our stay!

Alessandro was the perfect host - so very friendly and helpful. The house was amazing - The photos And description don’t do it justice. It’s so much bigger than we imagined and really quirky with its different levels. The kitchen was better equipped than any we have been to before and the fruit and wine on arrival very welcome! The outside space was a huge bonus and so peaceful Amidst the town. Great location - only 5 minute walk from the station and 6 minutes on the train to Sorento. Pompeii easily accessible by train. We love your house Alessandro - it comes highly recommended!

This place was a beautiful oasis. More beautiful than the photos can show. It’s a perfect fenced property that our small dogs enjoyed. The house is really charming and tastefully decorated. The garden is huge and really tropical and well maintained. It was impeccably cleaned and well stocked. I loved staying here, thank you!

My family and I stayed at this location and it was a fantastic stay for our time in Naples. Everyone was taken aback by how beautiful and large the space was including the terrace. Dominico was very responsive and helpful. He even came to unclog a toilet for us. There is ample space for a large family to live and entertain and just enjoy the beauty of Naples. There's a great beach within walking distance where the locals go. They also rent kayaks there for the bay of Naples. The gelateria and cafe at the top of the hill are fantastic! Finally there's a pharmacy and a grocery store all within walking distance. There are 2 major businesses lines at the top as well. The only thing I would say to warn other guests about is the neighbor in the unit below. The best thing I can say is to keep the noise to a minimum as much as possible at night and simply ignore the woman below. Don't let her detract from your vacation because this house and location are wonderful. Thanks again Dominico!

Beautiful property. The Gardens the house the views are all outstanding. We enjoyed our stay! Mike was a perfect host. We will definitely come back. The region has so much history.

I can’t express how grateful I am that we stayed at this beautiful property hosted by Florestano and his daughter Elly! Elly from the moment we arrived made sure our stay would go smoothly with directions for easy transportation and recommendations for her personal favorite local restaurants (They were amazing…). She was very friendly, attentive, and helpful! The property and views were incredible! I will be thinking about the views from the balcony in the morning/sunset for a while! We enjoyed our stay very much and would love to be able to stay at this location again!! 10/10

Lorenzo was so friendly and helpful. I got my foot run over in Rome so we could not have the walking everywhere trip to Italy we had planned😭I could not walk on it for few days but we just hung out on the beautiful patio area with the most incredible gorgeous views. Lorenzo got some groceries and drinks brought in for us and we were set. He had an ice pack ready for me and suggested a wondeful healing cream.... wondeful host and very kind man. We would recommend this beautiful place to anyone!

Antonio was amazing and helped us with a boat tour and recommended great restaurants.!! Amazing host!

This rental worked out well for my family while we visited from the US. The house is in a peaceful, quiet, and private area. We did our research on the area and we knew this was in the country and not walkable. You really need a car if you’re going to stay here. This isn’t a negative in my opinion, just want other renters to be aware. The host was very kind and responsive. We would stay here again.

This was the best Airbnb we have had! Antonella and Patricio were great hosts. We did the pizza party which we highly recommend. Patricio shared some oranges and eggs from the property as well. We swam, enjoyed the beautiful view, and explored the property. Feeling Italy helped us book our boat to Capri, and we used Antonella’s driver contact for transfers.

Our 3-night stay in Praiano was the highlight of our trip—we only wish we had stayed longer! Francesca and Agostino were incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful. After a train delay in Naples, Agostino went out of his way to arrange a taxi for us and greeted us upon arrival, even though we got in late. He showed us around and even provided delicious snacks and treats, which were so appreciated after a long travel day. Waking up to the breathtaking views was incredible, and our kids loved swimming in the jacuzzi overlooking the ocean. The location is perfect—close to restaurants, the beach, and the bus stop to neighboring towns like Positano. We loved how quiet and charming Praiano is and are so glad we chose to stay here. Francesca and Agostino clearly take pride in their space and have thought of every detail, from the beautiful decor to all the modern luxuries and amenities. We would absolutely recommend this place to others and hope to return for a longer stay someday!

Giovanna’s place is true luxury with awesome host, great view, premium rooms, and wonderful gardens. We were welcomed by the host who gave us complete tour of the home, local recommendations and also had a cute ‘present’ for us in the form of welcome drinks 🥂 Due to weather we couldn’t have pool but the whole property is so mesmerising that we even forgot about pool. Photos do not do complete justice as this place is much more beautiful than photos. We can’t wait to come again 😊 Already missing our morning tea with the view. This propert is a true gem, premium luxury with super helpful host. Thanks for having us at your place!

The views from the house are amazing!! Must watch sunsets! Large space house. Many patios!! Not walkable as we expected. 12-14 minute drive to amazing town of Sorrento! 4 minute drive to the awesome town of Massa Lubrense. We were tired from our travels to house at check in. Olympia made reservations for a nearby restaurant the owner of the restaurant picked us up!!! What service. We chartered a boat to Capri from Massa Lubrence NOT Sorrento. Very convenient!! We would definitely stay there again

This house is really quite incredible! The layout and design of the apartment is fun, artistic, spacious and eclectic! The shower is big with great pressure, and there is a lot of outdoor space you can use! The host lives above you, in the main house, so they are always available to help out! We meet Anna’s daughter, Francesca as our greeter! She was incredibly kind, very helpful, quick to respond and she even booked us a reservation for dinner at one of the places she recommended! You are close enough to Napoli for day trips, but you are just out of the way to avoid the bad traffic! Lots of stores within walking distance to satisfy your needs! Would definitely stay at this apartment again! The hosts are truly amazing and the apartment is wonderful! Thank you Anna and Francesca for everything!

We had a lovely stay at the beautiful loft. Anna made us feel right at home with her kindness and numerous recommendations. The house is spotless, and the garden is amazing. We highly recommend visiting Napoli and staying with Anna! 🌞

Great location and a hidden little gem in this area, the pool was a lovely extra aswell on hot days. would love to come back again. would highly recommend

We had a great stay. Gerardo made the check in flexible and easy. It was clean and the view to the Vesuvio is great.

Super stay! Very happy, thank you!

Very clean and good location and room, it's like a hotel.

Sergio and his wife are very welcoming. The space with an outdoor dining area was as expected. The pool is a real plus and big enough to hang out. Kids loved cats. We're hoping to be back!
