Torre di Civita
7 Bedrooms — 14 Guests
An exclusive clifftop estate surrounded by lush gardens and vast terraces offering panoramic sea views
Perched 300 metres above the azure waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea, Torre di Civita offers a remarkable luxury escape on the Amalfi Coast. Set atop the dramatic cliffs near Ravello and Atrani, this exclusive villa effortlessly blends Mediterranean history with modern Italian luxury.
Originating in the 10th century as a medieval watchtower, the property was later transformed into a peaceful 14th-century monastery. Centuries later, it became a playground for royalty and high society. Today, it has been meticulously restored into a luxury, five-acre estate with complete privacy and breathtaking, 360-degree views.
Spanning five acres of lush, terraced Mediterranean grounds, the estate features scented citrus orchards, centuries-old olive groves, and flourishing vegetable gardens that supply the villa’s kitchen daily. Within the grounds, a beautiful swimming pool surrounded by stone decking provides a tranquil space for relaxation. For wellness enthusiasts, the outdoor entertainment area also features a fully equipped gym with sea views and a unique massage room carved directly into the living cliffside rock.
Across the estate, nine panoramic terraces boast stunning sea, mountain, or village views. The terraces provide ample space for sunbathing, al fresco dining, or hosting unforgettable events under the stars. From the terraces, winding paths lead down to a secluded cove with crystal-clear waters.
The estate comprises a historic main villa, plus independent stone cottages. The main villa spans three thoughtfully designed floors that celebrate indoor-outdoor living. Stunning interior design balances historic monastic architecture with modern high-end comforts, showcasing soft neutral tones, local tile work, and expansive windows that frame majestic vistas of the Gulf of Salerno.
At the heart of the estate, a traditionally styled drawing room features high ceilings, a grand focal fireplace, and towering windows. This space leads to a formal dining room with a stunning chandelier overhead and a large, fully equipped chef’s kitchen.
12 meticulously appointed bedrooms across the main villa and guest cottages comfortably sleep up to 14 guests. The accommodation includes a plush master suite in the historic stone tower, offering guests private, uninterrupted 360-degree views of the coastline below. All bedrooms offer en-suite facilities, and most feature sea-view balconies or terraces.
Fully serviced by a resident team of staff, Torre di Civita serves as a serene, secluded sanctuary away from the crowds on the stunning Amalfi Coast.
