Villa Ketty

We recently stayed at Villa Ketty - and I have to say it is one of the most beautiful and relaxing places I have ever been - and I have traveled a lot - all over the US, Mexico, the Caribbean, England and Paris. It is owned by a very nice family and they are so nice and hospitable and they make a huge breakfast of homemade casseroles, cakes, fresh bread, jams, juice, fruits, sauces, meats and cheeses that are to die for! Theres olive, lemon, lime, fig and orange trees on the property and they keep chickens and a duck to get fresh eggs to make their own food. Beautiful big pool on property and spacious rooms with large patio balconies with some. The Ketty family is so nice and welcoming - Signora Ketty and her husband, her two daughters- Denise and Sylvia and her son in law Antonio and I cant forget Chiro, all make sure you have a wonderful time. Denise and Antonio cook the breakfast extravaganza and Sylvia is an artiste that paints all the plates, glasses, tables and pottery used there - we bought a couple to take home as souvenirs. They offer free shuttle rides into and back from town. They also own a wonderful restaurant in town, Pizza Metro, that we also recommend. Just make sure you call ahead the day of your arrival to meet at the pick up point - dont try to drive up the mountain yourself like we did - you'll never make it with the hairpin turns!

Wonderful place to stay, Sep19, full of old world traditional decor and family friendliness (reminded me of my Mam-gu's in South West Wales when I was a child) blended with modern luxury (eg.pool was excellent). Excellent unique breakfast! Excellent sea views of Vico Equense (wonderful town with easy connections as on main train line Napoli to Sorrento)! Worth paying that bit more to stay at this villa, a step up in class v usual hotels. Ardderchog!! Bellisimo! Diolch/grazie mille Ketty and famiglia for the croeso/welcome!

What can I say from the moment we arrived to the moment we departed the owners and family could not do anough for us. Beautiful views, lovely rooms spotlessly clean, lovely pool and amazing breakfasts. We so enjoyed our stay, Thank you.

The breakfast is the most amazing thing you could ever have. Everything is either home made or made by a local farmer. The eggs come from the happy chickens in the end of the hotel garden, the cheese is from a local farm and the tomatoes are grown in their garden. The make their own fantastic bread and pastries! The service is so personal, caring and fantastic in all ways. They offer great touristic advice and drive you into the town centre or train station whenever you want. Everyone is so nice and friendly. Would definitely come back here and will recommend to all my friends and family.

From A to Z this place is amazing. The place itself is beautiful. Hospitality of Ketty and the whole family is above great. There are so many good things to say but I just Think you should try it for yourself. Honestly.

As a family of 4 we loved our stay at Villa Ketty. Definitely our favourite accommodation whilst on our Italy trip. The Ketty family went out of their way to make sure we enjoyed our stay and I will not hesitate to recommend Villa Ketty to family and friends. The location was great for exploring the area and the best breakfast we’ve ever had!

Villa Ketty is one of the most beautiful and special places I have ever stayed. The family who run it are all so warm, friendly and welcoming. Breakfast is not only delicious but stunningly presented and the views are incredible. Cannot recommend enough and cannot wait to return!

Villa Ketty is an exceptional place for so many reasons. What a find! The property itself is stunning -- a spacious, multi-level villa bedecked with lush greenery, lemon and orange trees, flowers of all colors, baskets of fruit. Everywhere you look, there's beauty in abundance. The view is of the beautiful town of Vico Equense's and its harbor to the left, and Mount Vesuvius to the right. The hosts -- Antonio, his wife, and extended family -- take Southern Italian hospitality to a new level. They are so very good at making their guests feel warmly welcomed, with home-baked pastries on arrival, and just the right amount of attention to your needs and wants. Breakfasts are extraordinary -- Antonio grinds wheat for the biscuits early in the morning. Food is fresh from the garden, and the spread is like nothing you've seen. Ripe tomatoes, ricotta cheese, fresh orange juice, Neapolitan pastries, cured bacon and ham, honey from the villa's beehives, different jams, sugared strawberries, croissants, the perfect cappuccino. The villa is a very pleasant 10-minute walk to town, but if you don't feel like walking, Antoniio's father-in-law will drive you. It's a convenient location if you're traveling to Capri, Pompeii and Herculaneum -- it's a quick walk to the Circumsuviana train, and from there a quick ride to those excavation sites. Or you could just relax and bask in the gorgeousness of Villa Ketty.

Absolutely perfect. The staff and family owners are wonderful hosts and go out of their way to make you feel welcomed. A free shuttle is available to take you to and from the train station or their designated parking area for your car at their renowned pizza restaurant. The cliffside view from the rooms is stunning. Breakfast was stupendous. Highly recommended.

Fantastic place, people and breakfast! Would recommend to anyone!
