Agriturismo Serafina

Incredible stay, and the highlight of our Italy trip. This family-run agriturismo is the real deal, and a stunning place to stay. Also, my new hero is Rosa, the woman who basically runs Serafina. She speaks 4 languages, does all the (mind-blowingly good) cooking, baking, agriculture/farming, terrace building, wine, olive oil & cheese making, animal caretaking, cleaning of the guest rooms and probably 5000 other unacknowledged tasks. Her demeanor is efficient and profoundly helpful, direct and focused. She told us that Agriturismos have changed in Italy now, many are more like hotels-- Serafina is one of the few left still growing their food year round, making wine, honey, olive oil, cheese, raising every animal that they serve-- everything Organic to the max (when we arrived, I asked if I could compost an old salad and she asked me if it was organic or not). They are a sweet 4 person family - doing it all themselves! And it's just stunningly beautiful and at the foot of the Path of Gods (which was how I thankfully discovered it). The atmosphere is so peaceful, tranquil and family friendly. We hope to return!

We traveled 10 days from naples to Salerno and this stop was by far our favourite. Domenic, Rosa und Josephine are the definition of welcoming hosts and see all guests as parting the family. Throughout our stay they were always there for us, showed us passionately the inner workings of their agriturismo sad gave their best to make this experience and our day trips as exciting as possible. When we arrived we planned to only dine with them for our first evening. However, Rosas cooking turned out to be so exceptionally good and we were able to taste that all used ingredients were harvested and grown at the Agriturismo and tasted so special that we decided to come back each evening and the diners became the highlights of our days. The farm is beautifully situated in the hills above praiano. You can start your hike right from the door step to degli die, fiordo die furore or Pariano and the beach. The bus stops comfortably close in furore. We were often picked or dropped of at the bus stop by Dominic. The rooms are clean and comfy. We just felt right at Home. Leaving this place was the hardest part and we really hope to be back one day

Trois mois après notre visite, nous conservons un souvenir impérissable de notre soirée chez Rosa. Cet agriturismo justifie à lui seul le déplacement sur la côte Amalfitaine. Le repas était excellent, l'ambiance incroyable, et Rosa est une personne inoubliable.
