Virgilio’s Garden

Nos encantó el departamento!! Cómodo, limpio, agradable, tenía un jardín muy lindo en el fondo, pero sobre todo Mena la dueña es una genia, divina y nos ayudó en todo, nos recomendó lugares a donde ir, lugares a donde no ir, supermercados e incluso nos solucionó la excursión a Capri. Es un si rotundo!

Our host was lovely and friendly, and despite only using Google translate, she communicated pretty well. She tidied our room every day, and went above and beyond to check on us. The beds were comfy and everything was clean. The bathroom was a good size with plenty of space to store things and shampoo and bodywash and soap were provided and good quality, as were the towels, which were a good size too. The aircon worked fine. There was basic tea and coffee provided and a kettle and fridge in the room, which was helpful. The location was great for getting to Pompeii and other historical sights. There is no need to get a transfer. The bus and train from the airport are cheap and reliable, unless you are arriving later than about 9.30pm. (In general, the trains seemed much more reliable than buses.) The guy who did our transfer from the airport gave us a quick tour in the car before dropping us off at the accommodation, but we were tired and disorientated and didn't really take much in! He also offered to take us around during our stay, but we declined as we hadn't fully planned what we wanted to do and wanted to be spontaneous, but it is an option, if you want that sort of thing. The rooms are non-smoking, thankfully! The pastries were tasty and the coffee was good.

The walls were thin and we could hear a child at all hours of the night. Luckily I had my ear plugs, but my friend didn't! Slightly misleading wording about the breakfast 'A hearty Italian breakfast is served daily, featuring fresh pastries and juice', when it was a just a pastry and a coffee obtained with a voucher from a cafe across the road, but there are ashtrays on the tables there so not great for non-smokers. There is a photo of a cafe on the website but there is also a photo of the 'hearty' breakfast on a tray in the bedroom, which did not seem to be an option. Maybe the other rooms had a view, but ours didn't have a window to look out of. Just a window above the door for air. We got bitten somehow, despite the mosquito net and it being late October! My fault perhaps for leaving the bug spray behind as the weather was still great.

Everything, Mena is the most welcoming and helpful host. I would definitely stay here again. The location is perfect It is close to the train and ferry to get to the Amalfi, Naples, Pompeii. Breakfast is a delicious fresh croissant and coffee or your choice of drink at the cafe across the road. 😊

Virgilio's Garden felt just like home. The owner is a wonderful lady who thought of and prepared every detail for us in advance. Our room was spacious and spotlessly clean, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. ​Despite the fact that we speak English, she was kind enough to provide all the information about the property in Turkish. I had never experienced such a thoughtful gesture before. She also gave us great recommendations for car rentals, other transportation options, and places to eat that would help us with our vacation. ​Our stay was truly unforgettable. If your travels take you to Castellammare, don't look anywhere else. I highly recommend it. ​I want to thank the owner and all the staff once again.
