Aurora
Europe / Italy / Amalfi Coast
Villa Aurora, a historical Caprian country residence in a Neapolitan style dating back to the early 17th Century, is one of the few island villas still intact from that era.
Overview
The present owner has painstakingly restored the villa and, due to the workmanship and superb interior decoration inspired by its themes of art, this historical residence retains all of its initial charm. Thanks to the careful restoration carried out by the owner, the villa, while being transformed into an exclusive historical residence, has maintained its historical and architectural features. Behind the villa’s green gate, one finds an enchanting world so idyllic peace that takes one into is paradise. Steps ornamented by columns lead through the garden up to the main entrance. In this glorious setting, with its century old trees, marvellous displays of flowers, and a peacock-blue pool hidden amongst the flora, one remains amazed by the hospitality at hand.
The overwhelming lounge is adorned by arch shaped ceilings, paintings, chromatic lighting, larges sofas in blue velvet, and coffee tables. The beautiful floor with ancient hand painted tiles spreads through the villa from the living area to the dining room to the winter garden: the dining room boasts a glass-topped table and 10 chairs and interfaces with the kitchen, which is accessible only to the staff. The winter garden offers glass walls opening into the garden, allowing its greenery and natural light to spread inside the home, while its numerous white sofas lend for comfortable seating on a cool evening.
The villa offers seven unique and elegant bedrooms including a two-bedroom, two bathroom garden suite, all meticulously restored and furnished, immersed in the exquisitely scented and marvellously colourful "literary garden", equipped with every modern comfort. The rooms are accessible from the ground floor by a flight of 23 steps. The bedrooms have been beautifully furnished in a way that perfectly complement the style of the renovated building. Guests can find sheer relaxation in their spacious bathrooms, which boast, according to the theme of their room, a Turkish bath, plunge pool, duplex shower, or Jacuzzi. Most bedrooms have glorious, flower-covered terraces with superb views of the sea or the gardens. All rooms have air conditioning, LCD satellite television, DVD, safe deposit box, mini bar, and high-speed internet access.
Garden and Pool
Villa Aurora’s elegant swimming pool is immersed in its lush garden. Besides the pool lies the outdoor Jacuzzi. The contrasts of the green colour of the pool, the water, and the stones create a sublime harmony, diffusing calm and serenity, making the hours spent at the poolside moments of sheer relax. Guests will love a refreshing dip in the pool, a drink whilst soaking up the sunshine, or a delicious snack. Descending the ancient flight of stone steps, one finds itself in the wonderful "Secret Garden" – the fruit of the loving attention of generations of women who have tended to it over the years. Bushes of Viburnum Mariesii, the Datura with their "Angel's Trumpet" flowers, pomegranate trees, passion flowers, and arches of climbing roses create the perfect setting for a moment of reading, music, or quiet meditation.
