Guestbook

This was our first visit to the Sorrento Peninsula. Casale Villarena was an excellent choice for us and our three year old son. The villa is in a quiet and scenic location. Our apartment, La Vetara, was well equipped, clean and had terrific sea views from our balcony. It was like being on the film set from Mamma Mia! The evening meals made by Rosa were an absolute bonus. The food was absolutely fantastic - home cooked anti pasta, ravioli, lasagne, all made fresh to order each day with food from Guligimio's farm and washed down with local wine and Limoncello. It was great to return home from our excursions to Capri, Herculaneum, Sorrento, Amalfi etc, and look forward to top class (but very well priced) evening meals in the relaxed atmosphere of the villa.

Estas vacaciones han sido sin lugar a dudas una de las mejores que hemos podido compartir. Nosotros viajamos de Barcelona a Italia con ferry para poder llevar nuestro coche, puesto que habíamos leido que la mejor manera de visitar la costa amalfitana era con vehículo. Al llegar Casale Villarena nos sorprendimos de la gran tranquilidad que había. Es normal, puesto que Nerano es un pueblo de pescadores perchado en la montaña. Cuando nos recibió Guillermo y Giuliano quedamos sorprendidos de la amabilidad y entusiasmo que hechan para que sus huéspedes esten comodos. Finalmente quedamos boquiabertos al ver el apartamento en el que nos ibamos a alojar. Estaba recientemente reformado y la verdad que la decoración era muy bonita. Recomendamos cenar el dia que hagan fish soup en el Casale, ya que es sin lugar a dudas una comida buenísima y el trato recibido es exquisito y muy familiar. La mayoria de los pueblos de la costa amalfitana són preciosos, pero sin lugar a dudas uno de los que más nos gusto fue la Isla de Capri, eso si tendreis que caminar mucho porquè alli no hay vehículos ni transporte público. Buenas Vacaciones! Recuerdos y gracias a Guillermo Sin lugar a dudas volveremos!!! Nora y Hugo

“Saved the Best For Last” We arrived in Italy 5 weeks ago, this included 14 days on a 5 star ship cruising Italy and France. We didn.t know what to expect on the last leg of our journey and could not believe our good fortune when we arrived at Casale Villarena. The view of the Gulf of Salerno was awe inspiring. Our hosts Guglielmo, Mario and Guiliano could not do enough to make our stay memorable. Rosa and Guglielmo are fantastic cooks and made delicious food for us in the evening under the stars. Mario, quite the entrepeneur his favourite saying is "why not" gave us a special tour of the olive groves where we were able to really experience what it feels like to live and work in the hills of Italy. We were able to tour a processing factory for olive oil and met many of the workers who were so happy to show us their work. All in all it was a wonderful experience, probably one of the best experiences that we had. Mario is an excellent guide and a very generous spirit. We would greatly recommend Casale Villarena to everyone. Diane and Don McKendrick Maple Bay Vancouver Island, British Columbia Canada.
