Villa Bianca is 6km from Sorrento, 14km from Positano, 23km from Amalfi, and 23km from Pompeii. Capri is only 10km away. Surrounded by a vast area of natural beauty, located in a private park, with direct access to the sea and views across the Gulf of Naples to Capri. Designed by Italian architect Michele Capobianco in 1964, the two-storey villa is perched on a hillside overlooking the sea and the island of Capri. The interiors feature high ceilings and beautiful tiled floors, with contemporary furnishings and art from large abstract paintings to imposing sculptures. The villa has terraces at ground level and on the rooftop, and a lovely stone-lined pool is perched on the edge of the garden. Steps lead straight down to the beach.
