Campania Villas & Campania Holiday Rentals

Stunning swaths of coastline, ancient ruins, millennia of culture and bustling, flavorful Italian cities, Campania, which is home to world-renowned destinations of Naples, Pompeii and Capri, encapsulates the essence of southern Italy. Until visiting Campania, it’s hard to say that one has truly experienced this country.

Indeed, Naples is perhaps an even more exciting city than Rome. While there is no shortage of ancient ruins and intense mythological reference points and archaeological excavations at nearly every step, Naples is the veritable capital of southern Italy. The city brings together the passionate, fiery, cheerful, warm and inviting aspects of the local culture which have made southern Italy such as beloved destination for travelers throughout the world. It also offers some truly fine holiday apartments.

It is hard to know where to begin when listing attractions in Naples. An obvious place to start out would be Mount Vesuvius. Its last major eruption, which decimated Pompeii, was nearly 2,000 years ago. A number of minor eruptions have taken place since then, as Mount Vesuvius is still, technically, an active volcano. Don’t worry, though: it’s not likely to erupt anytime soon. Hiking excursions on Mount Vesuvious are delightful, and quite popular. You can rent equipment in the city. Visitors to holiday homes Naples should also check out the Castel Nuovo, La Guglia di San Domenico, and the breathtaking Castel dell’Ovo. Naples is also a major transportation hub, with a major international airport and ferries departing regularly from the Gulf of Naples.

Once you’ve had enough of the hustle and bustle of the big city, the island of Capri is a perfect destination to escape to one of the world’s most stunning and dramatic coastlines – at least for an island that comes with so much exquisite food, wine and historical import as Capri does. Despite being world famous, Capri is also a romantic weekend getaway for many Italians. Trust the locals, and plan your own romantic getaway in one of the fine holiday villas Capri has to offer. Among the countless jaw-dropping attractions on Capri, it is recommended that you absolutely don’t miss the “Funiculare”, an inclined railway taking you from Marina Grande and offering you breathtaking coastal views on your way to the city of Capri.

Ancient Pompeii, which was taken – yet miraculously persevered – by volcanic ash is much more than an archeological curiosity. Indeed, visitors of all professions and interests will be given pause when entering the ruins. To see, up close, these people and places trapped in time is truly incredible.

Campania is far from “undiscovered”, so it is very important to book Campania holiday accommodation well in advance throughout the year, especially in the peak season of the very busy summer months. Lodging in Campania holiday homes or holiday apartments Campania is quite comfortable, and often comes accompanied by exquisite cuisine with a generous helping of warm, southern Italian hospitality.
