VILLA MEZZANOTTE – POSITANO

Overview

Town : Positano

Beds : sleeps 9 persons.

Distance: 16 km from Amalfi & approximately 60 km from Naples airport

A historical hillside monastery from the 1700s built as an Episcopal residence can only enhance the beauty and magic of Positano. Recently purchased by a local, this villa has been beautifully restored into what it is today – a magnificent villa of tranquillity but with all the original features for fun! – most of all it’s an industrially equipped kitchen.

Palazzo Mezzanotte with its magnificent lacquered doors, richly painted ceilings and stucco decorations resembling fine lace work has an interior space of apx 500 sq mts & apx 50 sq mts of exterior space between garden and terrace areas. In the 1920’s Edward Ghillausen , famous artist and representative of the Bauhaus took the Palazzo as his residence where he remained till his death in 2000 at almost 100 years of age. He filled the Villa with art and love and became one of the town’s most treasured residences. Closer to the sky than to the sea, this villa is truly heaven on earth!

And now even closer with THE LONG-AWAITED ELEVATOR FROM THE MAIN COASTAL ROAD OF POSITANO! This elevator will be ready for the summer season of 2024!
