A Scalinatella

Property Description

What the Rough Guide says about Amalfi: 'Occupyng the southern side of Sorrentos peninsula, the Costiera Amalfitana lays claim to being Europes most beautiful stretch of coast, its corniche road winding around towering cliffs that slip almost sheer into sea. By car or bus, its an incredible ride'.

Atrani is an extension of Amalfi really, and was indeed another part of the maritime republic,' twin of Amalfi ', place of investiture of the Duchy and residence of the Nobles... ,with a similarly styled church sporting another set of bronze doors from Constantinople, manufactured in 1086.
Its a quiet place, which benefits from all the attention bestowed upon its neighbour, with a pretty, almost entirely enclosed little square, Piazza Umberto, leading onto a usually gloriously peaceful ( and free ) patch of sandy beach - hard to believe the bustle of Amalfi is just around the corner.

Travelling through Italy Florence & Rome, another good reason for coming here is that it has a great place to stay!

"How tourism discovered Atrani": after the Romantic Grand Tour came the sixties , the years of the economic boom and the sweet life ..Dolce Vita... the young lions who divided the Summer between Capri Amalfi and Positano

Atrani soon became the place to be for actors, producers, artists of all types and adventurers : Jackie Kennedy who danced barefoot on the tables of Chez Checco, Rossellini who turned the town into an exclusive cinema set...In the footsteps of these VIPS , tourism exploded....
