Ocean view
Enjoy the view of the sea.
Philosophy and sea view – await you at Casetta di Diogene, a gem at tranquil Conca dei Marini, not far from Amalfi.
The charming maisonette apartment with its typically Amalfi-style cupola ceiling is sure to fascinate romantics. The lovely apartment is dedicated to Diogenes, the ancient Greek, pre-Socratic philosopher, whom you will 'meet' more than once during your stay – in the books of renowned Italian author Luciano De Crescenzo.
His daughter Paola and her husband Raffaele have not only turned once deserted Casetta di Diogene into a real gem, they have also furnished it with a lot of papa Luciano’s writings. So, make yourself comfortable in the reading corner in the apartment’s gallery, dive a bit into the life and teachings of Diogenes & Co. and in between let your gaze wander out through the window onto the deep blue of the sea. THUS SPAKE BELLAVISTA A bella vista also awaits you on the furnished and partly roofed terrace a few steps below the apartment.
As the plants and trees have meanwhile grown, the view might be somewhat restricted. COMPLETELY RENOVATED – WITH ELEGANZA AND STYLE The inside of Casetta di Diogene can be described as small, fine and quite individual in design and layout.
The gallery was installed to gain more space and to separate the sleeping and living areas. A narrow spiral staircase runs up to the gallery with double bed and air conditioning (warm/cold). There’s also a small reading corner with comfortable chair, book shelf and reading lamp. The apartment’s living area has been designed with style and a love for detail.
Furnishing includes a sofa bed (3rd person), TV, WiFi, dining furniture and a kitchenette (incl. refrigerator, gas stove, mini oven), where you of course find crockery from Vietri sul Mare.
The kitchenette’s hand-crafted worktop and range hood made of a modern kind of cement contrast with the bright, high walls and catch your eye immediately.
The old wooden table fits well with the apartment’s modern ambience. Beautiful to behold right in the morning with your first cup of coffee – the view of the sea and of Conca’s church built onto a rock face. In the bathroom below the sleeping gallery, the recess in form of a pointed arch above WC/bidet and the striking tiles are quite remarkable.
A masonry shower cubicle and a washing machine have also been fitted into the small bathroom of Diogenes. PARKING – please note: Casetta di Diogene is located in a traffic-calmed zone, for which guests will receive an access permit and where a few chargeable public parking spaces are available.
On request, a private parking space (extra charge) near Ristorante Bontà del Capo can be reserved in advance.
The accommodation is not directly accessible by car! IL TEMPO E LA FELICITÀ (TIME AND HAPPINESS) That's the title of one of De Crescenzo’s books and it could be the motto for your holidays at Casetta di Diogene.
Given the terrific coastal landscape between Positano and Vietri sul Mare, moments of joy and of being wowed will be aplenty. They are physically challenging, but if you are fit enough, you might give them a try: the idyllic stepped paths (ca. 600 steps) you can walk along to the beach of Conca dei Marini. A shopping facility, bars, restaurant La Bontà del Capo and trattoria-pizzeria La Piazza are about 300 m from the accommodation.
At Bontà del Capo, you can take part in a guided Lemon Tour (not on Sundays) and 'dive into' the culinary traditions of your holiday region. A tip for those who want to make do (at least partly) without a car: the scooter and bike rental in Via Roma.
The vehicles can also be rented by the hour. The towns of Amalfi, Positano, Praiano, Ravello and Sorrento are easy to reach by public means of transportation. Bed linen & towels and use of air conditioning included Deposit: € 150 - due upon arrival Visitor’s tax – due on site: € 1 /person per day; charged as of age 12 (no responsibility taken) Private parking on request: € 20 /day Check-in (15:00 h - 19:00 h) & check-out (by 10:00 h) – Please note the fees (to be paid on site) for late check-in/early check-out: - Fees for late check-in: 19.00 h - 20.00 h: € 30 // 20.00 h - 21.00 h: € 40 // 21.00 h - 23.00 h: € 50 - Fee for early check-out: A fee of € 20 may be charged for check-out before 08:00 h.
