Testimonials

“Perla nel Blu was a BEAUTIFUL house nestled in the hills of the coast with amazing views. We enjoyed the market and butcher at the top of the hill where we could buy fresh ingredients to cook at the house and eat on one of the many outdoor terraces. We also took 2 courses during our stay…..both about 30min away. One a mozzarella making class I. Ravello and the other was a cooking class in Agerola. Wonderful home and generous hosts!”

“Hi Edoardo and Carlotta, Our stay at the Perla nel Blu was amazing. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us – we thoroughly enjoyed every minute we were there! I will certainly recommend it it everyone. My only regret was that we could not see you in person to thank you. If ever you are in Canada, it would be a pleasure to take you out for dinner!”

“The Perla nel Blu is simply amazing. This was our first experience with Airbnb and we had read quite a few glowing reviews before we finally booked it. First, I will start with the location. Conca Dei Marini is a very quiet village away from the very busy centres of Amalfi and Positano, yet only a few minutes by bus or taxi. Like all of the villages also get the Amalfi coast, it is built on a steep hillside (mountainside?) and this means walking anywhere involves going up and down steps. A lot of steps. Edoardo and Carlotta’s assistant, Antoinetta, who is simply amazing by the way, told us distances are measured in the number of steps. I believe the Perla is some 71 steps from the road so be prepared. Everyday is leg day! Conca Dei Marini has a few excellent restaurants including the incomparable Le Bonta del Capo with its extensive wine menu, outstanding views and food to send you to heaven. Other amenities include the local butcher, a few small shops and the Piccadilly Ceramic shop – a must see! The attractions include the Church of San Pancrazio, the former monastery of Santa Rosa (now a hotel/spa with Michelin restaurant) and the Grotta dello Smeraldo. Everywhere you go, you are presented with stunning views. Now for the Perla. It must be the best villa in Conca Dei Marini. The hosts communicated with us every step of the way and made it easy to find. Their assistant, Antoinetta, was extremely helpful and gave us a thorough introduction to the villa. We were also greeted with a lovely gift basket that included local pasta, sauce and limoncello. Perla del Blue is a two bedroom villa with fully equipped kitchen, living room with fireplace (it was August, we definitely didn’t need it lol), dining room and two bathrooms. It is extremely well decorated and features television, air conditioning, a laundry closet. Perhaps even better are the exterior amenities. A set of spiral stairs leads upward to a covered seating area which in turn leads to a upper sun deck that provides an outstanding view of the village and coastline. To the rear, is a fully equipped outdoor kitchen and dining area, and lastly (but definitely not least), is the small pool and hot tub with garden area and hammocks. We spent most our time outside in these areas and it felt like being in a private resort – simply amazing! In summary, we would definitely come back. The hosts are incredibly thoughtful and the villa simply stunning. Thank you Edoardo and Carlotta for making this experience so wonderful! Karel and Christine Baayen”

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay – the property is amazingly well equipped with fantastic outside space. The views are incredible and the pool and garden areas are a delight. We had a few issues that the owners and property manager worked hard to address and communicated very well with us”.

Incredible location on the Amalfi Coast, with amazing view to detox body and soul

The Perla nel Blu is just as beautiful as the amazing view of the Amalfi Coast. Edoardo has decoratede the villa to such a high standardand it is equipped with everything you could need. The Villa is spotlessly clean on arrival and the sheets and towels were changed every three days Edoardo was an excellent host and was very attentive to our needs.

Absolutely adore this Conca Dei Marini gem. The location was perfect being just outside of touristy Amalfi. The hosts were very responsive  and helpful. The house was running and had great amenities! We enjoyed every moment of our stay!

If you are going to the Amalfi Coast, this is the place to stay. The deck (wich includes a pool hot tub and autdoor kitchen) overlooks the beautiful Tyrrhenian Sea. It’s worth it just to have coffee out in the deck enjoying a breathatking view every morning. The villa offers so much more that just gorgeous views: the kitchen met all of our cooking needs, bathrooms were clean, the showers were excellent and the beds were very comfortable (even the fold out couch!). Edoardo and Carlotta are extraordinary hosts and his second in command, Antoinetta, is extremely helpful arranging drivers, tours, and giving advice about where to go and what to avoid. These are peolple who truly care about experience and want you to enjoy every moment you have in Conca dei Marini and the Amalfi Coast. This place is so good I wish I could keep it a secret but if would not be fair to my gracious hosts. I highly recommend this villa to my family, friends and everyone who appreciates a wonderful home in a beautiful location. My wife and friends hope to stay here again very soon!
