“Terrific property - big thanks”
+Everything was great ... the pool and the large pool area is just fabulous. Angelo was super-helpful and always quick to respond, e.g. when we needed help with the barbecue .. we were very grateful for that. We loved the location ... ordinary, not glamorous, but that suited us fine! ... all the glamour stuff is not far away if you want it, and the very-walkable train station for Naples was great fun (tho' for a late-evening return you need to pre-book a taxi at (say) Pompeii Scavi, as the green connecting line closes early). Sole 365 just down the road is a great supermarket (fresh meat, cheese, good wine selection); Pizza e Pacchieri is a fab pizza takeaway (better than Lupin up Via Tricino, tho' that was fine too) and also has great takeaway wine (Piedirosso from Cantina Santarpina). Only problem was the familiar tension between 'so much to do, yet so great to chill' - a terrific place for chilling! Would love to return ... BUT Sorrento, Positano were busy, going on too busy, in late May, would HATE to try them.in full summer - stick by the pool instead! Thanks to Angelo ... arrivederci? I do.hope so!
−Only negative was lack of welcome folder/property information about e.g. recycling and rubbish collection ... but Angelo made up for that, so it didn't matter. He lives across the road - always available, but NEVER intrusive! 😃 (and made check-in very easy when unsure of arrival time)

“Beautiful and spacious.”
+This Villa is really beautiful, spacious and perfect for what we needed. I travelled with my mam and my uncle who has dementia. We each got a bedroom and my uncle had his own en suite bathroom aswell. The grounds and the views I could have happily looked at everyday for the rest of my life and not had enough, truly stunning. There was ample eating space with a dining table in the kitchen, 1 outside the kitchen on the terrace, and a very large table in the poolside kitchen. Down by the pool is where we spent most our time. You have a working sink, fridge and BBQ, aswell as plenty of seating, table football, sunloungers, a large cushioned swing, a hammock and lots of cover from the sun. The villa is fully secure and private with automatic gates at the front. Inside the villa we found everything we needed, from a welcome package of food stuff, cutlery, crockery and cooking pots and pans. There is a sliding door cupboard we jokingly called the "Aladins cave". This had your washing machine, iron and board, washing detergent and softner, aswell as all kinds of helpful things like a first aid kit, bug spray, plug adapters, wine glasses, bigger cooking trays, suncream and so much more. The
−Negatives: 2 of the double beds are very comfortable, but I found mine in the 3rd room far too hard for me. Thankfully we had spare mattresses as we didnt need the single beds, so i just used those on my double frame. There are 2 fridges outside but we could not get one ( a drinks fridge) to work, but we had space in the main one anyway. Whilst the en suite shower worked great for my uncle, the shared one never stayed at a consistent temperature, quickly changing from hot to cold to hot again. The location does not have very much around and anywhere you want to eat does not open until after 6pm, so we regular ended up on the local train to pompei (7mins slow walk, €1.50 each, and runs frequent from 8ish in the morning until around half 8 at night) Local dogs do bark a lot but this didnt bother us, and there are fireworks going off everynight.

+Clean and comfortable, good amenities, large pool and great location for trips to Vesuvius and pompeii. Town isn't full of tourists which we liked.

“We had a fantastic holiday & stay at this beautiful Villa & it was a great base to explore the surrounding areas”
+The outdoor dining areas & BBQ were lovely & the pool was just fabulous! Really comfortable & spacious bedrooms inside & it was spotlessly clean & well equipped. The owner left us a lovely welcome pack with lots of goodies which was very much appreciated! Plenty of parking space within the Villa grounds too (we had two hire cars).
−We loved the property overall but the kitchen/lounge area is very small for 6 adults, however this room leads onto a spacious outdoor dining veranda so we used this most of the time. The plug sockets are sparse in the bedrooms and we struggled to find ones that fitted our EU adapters - We also experienced intermittent power cuts a couple of nights in the area but it wasn’t down for long periods and didn’t really affect our stay. The sun loungers could do with updating as they were a little bit uncomfortable.

“An amazing stay at a great villa with brilliant owners”
+We had an amazing stay here. The owners were absolutely amazing. They helped us with a taxi when we missed the last train, ordered a takeaway on the first evening, airport transfers, trips and were available to help throughout our whole stay. The villa itself was amazing, so much space inside and outside that even with 6 adults and 2 children, we didn't feel on top of each other. The pool was opened up for us which was perfect for the kids. The train station and supermarket are a short walk away (both very cheap too) and it's a peaceful area with a great view of Vesuvius An absolute pleasure to stay here and I would very much recommend it for anyone considering this area Easy and cheap to get around and the town of Pompei is 5 minutes on the train and full of restaurants

“Fantastic stay at Villa Salvius”
+We have just returned from a wonderful stay at Villa Salvius. The rooms are spacious and comfortable and all have air conditioning in them. The pool is fantastic. There is parking space for a car however we chose not to hire one and used the local train system. The train station is around 5 minutes walk from the villa. It was very straightforward to use and we were able to visit Pompei and Herculaneam and Sorrento. There is a local supermarket around 10 minutes walk. The area itself is not geared towards tourists and there weren't many places for eating out unless you travelled further out however we were happy to eat at the villa on the days we remained local. The villa owners were in regular contact and answered any questions quickly. They live across from the villa so were very close if needed. They even arranged our transfers to and from the airport. Overall it was a fantastic stay, we would highly recommend. The kitchen / living area is quite small. We managed well as a family of four but I could see how it might be more difficult for larger families. There is however a large terrace which runs around the outside of the villa with lots of space and large table. There is also a

“Thankyou Villa Salvius we had a fantastic time and would definitely go back.”
+Superb Villa for relaxing with friends or splashing fun with the family Located off the main road the villa is surrounded by agricultural land and other private dwellings and is very peaceful We arrived to a warm friendly welcome form the owners farther who happily showed us around the villa and gave directions to the local train station San Pietro and supermarket Sole 365. There are 3 large double bedrooms and a large 4th room housing a single and a bunk bed, very clean and spacious one double was equipped with an ensuite and the other bedrooms shared a shower room. The kitchen is well equipped and opened onto a large, covered terrace great for eating breakfast. The external space is excellent with plenty of sun loungers and seating. There is a BBQ provided, coals and lighter fuel are available at the supermarket ( 5 min walk ) along with a good selection of meats, cheese, and beers. We lit the BBQ on our first night and it was perfect underneath the covered external garden room which has running water to a stainless-steel sink, refrigerator, and a large dining table. The pool was a good size and was cleaned every morning, it was a nice relief to shelter from the mid-afternoon sun
−There is not huge choice of restaurants and bars within a short walking distance, but we did discover Picciò Pub, ( 5 min Walk ) turn down the side alley to the restaurants entrance and you will receive a warm welcome.

“A great villa and perfect for a family holiday.”
+The villa is very spacious and perfect for a family. The outside space is large and the pool is fantastic. The outside dining areas are both perfect. The villa is 2 mins walk to the station where you can jump on a train to Naples or Pompeii. The owner is very helpful and stays in touch throughout the stay.
−My only recommendation would be for more cutlery and plates/serving bowls. It would be good to have one set by the pool and another at the house.

“Really beautiful villa with amazing pool and wonderful hosts.”
+Amazing pool and garden area. The hosts were extremely friendly. Big bonus for coffee and breakfast items, and even better a full pizza for the family because they knew we were arriving late. Lovely people.

“A brilliant family trip to Pompeii and other sites around the area. The house was so lovely and defiantly somewhere we w”
+The property was very clean and comfortable with plenty of space to comfortably sleep 9 people. The bunk beds made for a great room for the kids. The outdoor space was amazing. The huge pool was very clean and there are loads of poolside furniture. there is also a large covered eating area poolside. The property was located only 10mins drive from Pompeii and was a great base to explore the local area from. The owners were really great. Angelo met us on arrival and happy to help with any problems as he lived close by.
−The kitchenette was very small and not ideal for a large group. it made cooking for 7 people very challenging. There was also no lounge area in the property so no ideal place to hang out in the evenings as being October it was a little too cool to sit outside.
