Villa Zincalo - Holiday apartments in Marina di Camerota

These extraordinary premises are situated in an old olive grove right above the old saracen tower "Zincalo".

Its view is one of the most popular subjects of postcards and illustrated books.

Enjoy the magnificent view to the sea and Marina di Camerota best from the pizza stone oven on the common terrace. All attempts to take your eyes off this splendour might prove vain.

On a little path you will after 100 m reach Torre Zincalo and the sea and from there after another 400 m on foot the pebble/sandy beach Lentiscelle.

On a slope the villa offers three apartments,  one of which is inhabited by the Roman proprietors during holidays.

Moreover there is a smaller separate guest house, the Casetta Zincalo.

This apartment features a large living-dining room, a separate kitchen, three bedrooms (two double rooms, one room with two single bed) and two bathrooms (one with shower, one with bathtub).

From the living room and from the bedrooms you can reach the roofed part of your own spacious terrace. Here, old olive oil amphoras and old stone arches add to a special atmosphere.

This small apartment is partioned like apartment type A (with a large terrace as well), only lacking the third bedroom (one double room, one room with a bunk bed). As the daughter of the proprietores likes to live there every now and then, this apartment is only irregularly available. 

Each apartment has got a heating and sat-TV.

Outside area:

Standing close to the terraces, the thick old olive trees add to the special atmosphere of the premises.

In addition to the roofed common terrace with the pizza stone oven, you may also use a small kitchen (e.g. to prepare the pizza).

On the fenced estate there is a car park.

You can easily see that this property has always been well looked-after and so far only been used privately.

The town centre of Marina di Camerota is some 2.4 km away. The driveway to the villa is a country lane of 200m, branching off the asphalt road.

Marina di Camerota lies in the core zone of the Cilento. Excursions to the north as well as to the south are rather easy. In the south, you can admire the great cliff line near Maratea; in the north of the Cilento, you will meet with highlights such as the small mountain town of Castellabate (World Heritage Site) and the famous ancient Greek temples of Paestum
