As the sun sets behind the fabled Isle of Capri, a ferry approaches Amalfi. A dolphin breaks the surface of the Mediterranean sea. It is time to raise a glass of local Lacrima Cristi (tears of Christ) wine and toast another glorious day in Sorrento.

The Mare Villa with its extensive terrace is just above the garages. 

Villas Sole and Mare share a private stairway to the sea that is found in the arched area at the lowest level. 

Villa Sole has four parking spaces, two inside garages and two outside.

The wonderful terrace just goes on and on, punctuated by graceful columns.

The outdoor dining room has a roof for comfort and shade on the hottest days. 

The swimming pool is up the few steps on the left of this photo. The terrace is so large, it has been used for weddings. Our visit was late on a November afternoon. Sorry to say our photos suffered from both aspects of the timing. Cushions for the terrace furniture were already stored for the winter.

Comfortable cottage-style sofa and chairs tempt you to look away from the ever present blue of the Mediterranean and sky above.

Cool white walls of the inside dining area.. 

From the dining room towards bedrooms.

Pretty turquoise tiles carry through out the dining and kitchen. Note the large refrigerator and diswasher.

The kitchen, too, has a view.

The master bedroom adjoins the living room.

Bathrooms sparkle with glass tiles. Note small amenities such as the makeup mirror.

Sunset paints the view from the terrace towards Mass Lubrense. Bougainville and other blossoms decorate the villa.

Terrace view over the road, and sea.

The pool with a privacy fence is a liner-type, but you don't see the sides and it is large and deep.
