Welcome to our charming holiday home built in an ancient building tower, located in the picturesque hamlet of Vettica, in Amalfi. Positioned majestically on a cliff overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea, the Our tower offers a breathtaking view of the Amalfi Coast. Once you arrive, you will be greeted by the imposing structure of ours tower, which stands proudly among the olive and lemon trees typical of the Coast. Upon entering, you will immediately be captured by the welcoming atmosphere and the peculiar design of the house, characterized by bright interiors and spacious, furnished with taste and attention to detail. The tower is spread over different levels, offering a variety of spaces for relax and enjoy the tranquility of the place. The bedrooms, elegantly furnished, they offer comfort and privacy. But one of the things what makes the structure fascinating and equally distinctive is the presence of an incomparable bedroom, created inside an ancient cistern. This evocative environment still retains traces of its former glory historical past with stone walls and an atmosphere full of charm and mystery, ensuring such a place as perfect for living a unique experience
