Amalfi Coast Rental



Welcome to my blog.  Travel has long been the dream come true for people everywhere.
No matter where one lives, there is an innate, insatiable desire to Go.  One destination that never fails to please is the Amalfi Coast.  I would like to dedicate this effort to helping travellers like you, avoid the possible pitfalls of property rental here in the place which I have called home for my entire life. When you begin your search for an apartment or a villa the first difficulty you will encounter will be how to choose a beautiful property from websites full of beautiful rentals.  Each property is managed.  The agency which manages the rental is as important as the view from your terrace.  In fact, if you arrive at the airport in Naples but your baggage does not arrive, it could take an hour or two to execute the proper paperwork ensuring prompt delivery of your bags.  A simple delay like this could result in a bad beginning to your Holiday.  If you find your way to the apartment but no one is there to meet with you, you are on your own.  If you do not speak Italian even a friendly neighbour may not be able to help.  This scenario and a host of other reasons is why you should choose a villa or an apartment from a local agency.  

Local agencies maintain offices here on the Amalfi Coast and nowhere else.  An agency's address should be visible on the web site, not hidden.  They should have no Switzerland or Hong Kong office, their location should be clearly stated, in Amalfi or Positano or Maiori, the largest towns on the Amalfi Coast.  This in itself will save you money.  The agencies located outside the borders of the Coast offer no support while you are on holiday and none when you check in.  A late night check in with tired children after a long flight in an unfamiliar place is no way to start a vacation.  Some of these non-local agencies do not even make themselves available for telephone inquiries.  What they are good at doing is knowing exactly how much of a balance you owe them.  The agencies located on the Coast strive to cultivate relationships with the property owners.  They do their very best to please their clientèle.  These people are the only ones who offer instant support...from check in to check out.  If you have a problem, a question, no matter, they are a phone call away.

Remember, some "Summer" rental companies provide great advertisements.  They are quick to learn tricks which they know may beat the legitimate competition through links in nonsense pages.  They write reams of complete foolishness in their pages so that they will pop up for any 'key word' search regardless of it's true pertinence to your travel concerns.  But there is one thing that they are NOT good at, one thing which they can NOT offer; Real Guest Services.  You cross an ocean, travelling thousands of miles in an aircraft to get to Italy's stunning Amalfi Coast and you arrive to No Service.  There is a better way to do business.  Local agents doing business as it should be done.  With personal service as the key to your Holiday enjoyment.



Because of our dedication to personal client service we are not just the Best but the fastest growing local rental agency on the Coast.

We are a staff of 7 experienced members.  Most of us are fluent in English, some in French and some German and, of course all of us in our mother tongue, Italian.  We can offer Russian telephone support on request as well.  What else could a tourist need when discovering the most memorable of all Coasts?  How about maps, information and logistics on guided tours, updated bus schedules, important tips on local food stores, fruit and veg markets, restaurants, bars and clubs, we know what we are talking about, we live here. 
We'll make you aware of updated events which will take place during your stay and most of all we will be at our local office to provide service during your holiday whenever you need us.  You can count on being served by an English speaking assistant and/or someone manning a mobile device constantly scanning incoming emails.  Internet access at our office in Amalfi will always be free of charge to our guests and if you wish a private connection, if it is not provided by the rental property, we can rent you an ADSL stick.  We also have mobile phones available for rent ready to receive free roaming calls from overseas!
