Torre Di Cesare By Resort Bookings - Maiori, Italy 

Torre Di Cesare By Resort Bookings details:  Torre di Cesare offers villa rentals along the coast and about two miles from the city of Maiori. Maiori sits in the deepest inlet of the Amalfi Coast at the mouth of a river and boasting the largest beach in the area. During the middle ages Maiori was the primary harbor of the Amalfi Republic housing arsenals and military headquarters. It was surrounded by coastal fortifications some of which remain today. Torre di Cesare has a converted Saracen Tower which has dominated the Amalfi Coast for centuries standing guard over the Mediterranean in perennial salute. The 16th-century tower sits on a sheer cliff above the sea built to observe and prevent pirate raids and other invaders who once encroached upon this coastal paradise. This property also consists of two independent villas. Originally this area was almost inaccessible on land due to the protection of the insurmountable mountains looming behind. Torre di Cesare's grounds stretch from the panoramic coastal road down to the sea following a delightful and perfectly-tended Mediterranean garden with a Jacuzzi tub high on a ledge above the sea and a sauna hidden behind a rock looking onto a pretty inlet. There is also a succession of panoramic terraces furnished with benches and tables made of valuable Vietri ceramics. A swimming pool with a Jacuzzi can be enclosed in glass for winter use. Next to one of the residences there is also a large covered outdoor dining area with a table for up to 22 people. There is also a daily onsite caretaker (from 8am to 4pm) who can advise you about the area in addition to giving you assistance at the property.
