LOCATION
This property, situated waterfront on the Island of Capri, stands out for it’s unique history, location, and internal decor.
Villa Camelia lies directly seaside, right above the shore line, immersed in a vast area of gardens and terraces. The property is built above the former villa Palatium or The Palace by the Sea, of Roman Emperor Tiberius. Some of the original villa’s remains can still be seen in parts of the property.
Villa Camelia lies in an area of Capri, which today is called Palazzo A Mare. It’s fabulous location allows guests to reach Capri down town and The Piazzetta in 5 minutes by cab.
From the terrace of the property, one’s eyes are captured by a superb view out on to the Peninsula of Sorrento, Mount Vesuvius, and the Bay of Naples. The entire plane of Capri, with the port of Marina Grande, Villa Lysis, and the townhouses of this infamous village can be seen from the gardens. On the opposite side of the property, the view expands towards the hillside of Monte Solaro and the bright white Fenicia stairs of Villa San Michele, just where Anacapri village begins.
