Address
Via Amerigo Vespucci, 13 - Massa Lubrense

Nerano is a small fishing village in Massa Lubrense, halfway between Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast, and right here, in what was once the ancient estate of the Marchese di Villarena, you'll find Relais Villarena, with its villas, apartments and rooms ready to give you the seaside holiday you've been dreaming of.

Your villa by the sea

La Rotonda Deluxe, Il Gallo Lungo Superior, La Vetara Deluxe, Il Brigante Comfort, L'Isca Standard Room, Il Palmento Superior Double Room and La Gerania Deluxe Neighbor: these are the accommodations at Relais Villarena, each with the warm atmosphere of a home. Every apartment has a living area with kitchenette and, above all, a terrace with views over the sea and Li Galli, the romantic islets of the Amalfi Coast, and direct access to the garden.

For those wanting even more privacy, the independent accommodations: Casa Simi and Casa Teresa, two small gems for hopeless romantics, and the Private Villa for those wanting exclusive space entirely their own.

The garden of relaxation

A typical terraced garden of the Sorrentine Peninsula. Each terrace holds a pleasant surprise: one for relaxation with pool and Jacuzzi, a sea-view solarium terrace for sun worshippers, and the tasting terraces with the cellar for local product tastings. A short walk leads to the beach of Nerano for a wonderful day at the sea.

The pleasure of "Not Restaurant"

This is not a traditional restaurant, but something more genuine: the "Not Restaurant" at Relais Villarena is a culinary experience where authentic Italian flavours and personal connections come together. Guglielmo, your host, guides you through the house specialities: paccheri al profumo di mare, traditional recipes and the unmissable spaghetti alla Nerano.

Villarena is also an organic farm and guests can join Wine and Food Tastings, wines, DOP extra virgin olive oil, jams, honey and limoncello, or buy them online through Villarena Selection.

"Mamma Mia" cooking classes, individual or group, are organised by Relais Villarena for those who want to learn the secrets of local cuisine, then put them into practice by cooking dinner for everyone.

Boat Adventure and experiences

Capri and the Amalfi Coast hide caves, sea grottos and secret beaches. The Boat Adventure takes you to discover them by sea, the best way to experience the coast. From Wine and Food Tastings to cooking classes, every experience is designed to connect you with the land and its culture.

Events and weddings at Relais Villarena

The "Not Restaurant" is perfect for special events: weddings, birthdays and wedding banquets. The breathtaking landscape of the Sorrentine Peninsula, the intimate and romantic setting and the scent of citrus provide the perfect backdrop for unforgettable celebrations.

Fantastic experience, I was looking for a place where I could relax completely, and Villarena Relais was the perfect choice, the parking is literally 2 steps away and the staff is very professional and attentive to every detail, as for the property it is simply fantastic, I loved the pool! I also recommend trying the restaurant (in addition to the truly fantastic drinks), seeing is believing 😍

Thank you Guillermo and your amazing team, for such a fantastic week in July! Daniela was a superb host and you all made us feel so welcome. Nothing was too much trouble from advising us to collecting us, to arranging the amazing cooking class and wine tasting experience. Nerano is such a lovely place and the villa itself is so comfortable. We all loved the pool and slept so well in our quiet comfortable rooms. We’d love to return and lie under the lemon trees again!

Authentic Italian hospitality

Another truly authentic Italian stay with Guilielmo and his wonderful staff. We have visited Massa Lubrense and the Amalfi coast many times but have found the experience at Villarena to be our favourite holiday place of all. Their attention to detail and genuine Italian hospitality are second to none and the staff go out of their way to make our holidays especially memorable. We couldn’t recommend a visit to Villarena highly enough. We’ll be back again as soon as possible ☺️

Map

Nerano is a tiny little coastal village between the historic seaside town of Sorrento and the legendary Amalfi Coast. Relais Villarena is the perfect place in which to enjoy a relaxing vacation by the sea and a great base from where to explore the treasures of Italy's Campania region: situated within easy reach of the towns of Positano, Amalfi and Ravello, the archeological sites of Pompeii and Herculaneum, the city of Naples, and the Island of Capri.
