LOCATION

Villa Licosa lies in a very private position surrounded by nature; immersed in a maritime pine wood, steps from the Sea. The estate lies in a protected area, part of the Cilento National Park. The terraces surrounding the villa are filled with scented jasmine, honeysuckle, and bougainvillea. There are long comfortable cushioned inbuilt benches all along the front of the house and a separate palm covered outdoor lounge area with sofas and coaches with spectacular views overlooking the sea making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy a cool drink or read a book. Candlelight and the sound of the sea gently lapping on the shore a stone’s throw away makes this a truly romantic spot.
