Villa Rupa is a unique
property, a place where
man's tenacity has
rendered possible that
which seemed impossible.
The result is the
creation of an earthly
paradise where tradition
intermingles with
imagination and where
fantasies can literally
take flight.
Built into the rock
walls above the sea, the
property is perfectly
integrated into this
very special natural
background.
Geographically, Villa
Rupa lies about half-way
between Sorrento and
Positano, but the
sensation when you enter
the gate of the property
is that of entering a
dream world. It is
unlike any other place
you have ever seen. Its
characteristic
micro-climate has
allowed the creation of
a garden rich with
tropical plants.
Passing through the
house and exiting on the
other side you will find
even more surprises.
First you will find the
external kitchen
furnished with a grill
and a pizza oven
followed by the
panoramic terraces, the
swimming-pool (8x3m)
with hydro massage and
finally you will reach
the marvellous grotto
with a corner bar and
the "pensatoio" - a
quiet spot for losing
yourself in pleasant
thoughts - a terrace
with breathtaking views
which ends this
enchanting walk and
where a Peregrine falcon
has made its nest
-perched high on the
rock face.
The legendary islands
called Li Galli are a
constant part of the
panorama from the house.
Due to its special
location, this villa is
not considered suitable
