After a walk from the town center we arrived at the villa. Entrance was promising. After we had payed our 6 Euro's we came in a garden in great need of new plants, re-decoration, paint, cleaning... The view's are great (but these views are also availlable at no cost at any place along the coastline). I wonder why and who... More

The view from the Gardens was outstanding. It was early spring so there was limited flowering of the plants, however, the garden was in serious need of tending and showed signs of neglect.

I'd seen pictures on these gardens and was so pleased to visit them. The walk there is lovely through the cobbled laneways looking out on the Valley of the Dragone. The gardens are quite extensive so allow yourself plenty of time to take it all in. The views are spectacular walking along the Avenue of Immensity and entering the Terrace... More

I have been in this place with local friends. To arrive to Villa Cimbrone you have to walk through narrow small streets, which is very nice, as you can also smell the air of lemons and other typical local plants... When you arrive at th egate you have th eimpression to enter in a fairy tale...the house (I didnt enter... More

Great exercise getting to the top, but when you get there, and go inside, the gardens are gorgeous (though I'm sure they would have looked even more beautiful, but many flowers and roses were just starting their bloom). The view from Terrace of Infinity is breath-taking!

If you are staying in Amalfi, take the Sita bus up to Ravello (cost is 2.50 euros). The bus stops by a pedestrian tunnel. Walk through the tunnel and then go to the left. It is about a 10 minute walk to Villa Cimbrone. At one stage , you can either go left or right. Don't worry. Both routes end... More

If you are visiting the Amalfi Coast you should spend at least a few hours in Ravello and walk through the Villa Cimbrone Gardens. The views of the coast from far up above are stunning and you will never forget them! The gardens are beautiful as well. It was well worth the trip and a great location to eat lunch... More

We found this gorgeous property with the most incredible views and huge lush gardens. After a week of breathtaking sites, this is where we choose to spend our last day on the Amalfi Coast. It was so beautiful we are looking at staying at the Villa on our next visit.
