Overview
Backed by lush mountains and just a moment’s away from the seafront, Villa Marilu is an elegant holiday home idyllically nestled on Ischia’s west coast. It offers a true delight for the senses in a private resort with similarly exclusive villas.
The villa’s soothing interior combines modernist architecture with Mediterranean flair, evident from the moment you step inside. A spacious open-plan kitchen and lounge welcome you in with its soothing white, blue and brown colour palette, while the large sliding glass doors reveal a glorious view of the grassy lawn and sparkling sea in the distance. Those who love to cook will appreciate all the top-notch appliances and the kitchen in the corner, away from the main relaxation area. The spacious bedroom is furnished to the highest standards with a king-size bed and TV. Both bathrooms feature Italian marble and handmade ceramic tile flooring. In the suite, you’ll find a stunning selection of pieces from luxury Italian brands, furniture crafted by local craftsmen, and Italian marble and ceramic tile flooring.
As you gaze out over the sea, the inviting outdoor lawn beckons you to soak up the glorious sunshine. Work on your holiday tan by relaxing on the sun loungers, or have any of your meals al-fresco in the shade where the outdoor dining table is – It's simply the perfect spot to witness the sun's graceful descent behind the horizon.
When the time comes to venture beyond our peaceful retreat, you'll be delighted to discover that you're nestled in the heart of the charming village of Chiaia. A short stroll will lead you to Spiaggia della Chiaia, a sandy beach, and local conveniences like shops and restaurants.
For further exploration, the town of Ischia awaits, just a convenient 30-minute drive away. Here, you'll find bustling ports, inviting beaches, restaurants, bars, and an adjacent islet adorned with medieval ruins. Don't miss the iconic Castello Aragonese d'Ischia, perched on its islet and a must-visit attraction. Nearby, the 18th-century Palazzo dell’Orologio houses the Sea Museum, a delightful homage to Ischia's rich fishing heritage.
Nature enthusiasts will revel in the opportunity to traverse scenic walking and hiking trails offering sweeping coastal and mountainous panoramas. One of the most enchanting routes is Campagnano, which gives hikers a magnificent view of the Gulf of Naples and leads to the captivating abandoned village of Piano Liguori.
