Agriturismo Nonno Luigino

Nonno Luigino is an agriturismo property, where you can stay (a hotel with breakfast), you can eat (there is a restaurant open to public) and you can visit their pool (which is open to public). It is much more than this. They produce their own vegetables, oils, cosmetics, lemon products and what is rare and interesting is the production of wheat for producing their own flour. So the top of all the businesses they represent is the restaurant. Their pizza was the best we had in Italy (16 days of travelling and eating in many restaurants), but my daughter claims the same about the pasta she had. As well, in the evening the restaurant was full of local people which is a great indicator of the fact that the food here is good. The prices are reasonable, actually great for the quality you get. We spent 2 nights here and had it as a base for visiting the Gulf of Naples (Herculaneum, snorkeling, Sorrento...). It is one hour of drive from the Gulf, but the way there is scenic as you drive up above the bay, you can see local villages with its lively evenings and the property has amaizing views because it is quite high. Our accomodation had 2 bedrooms and a patio and was next to a lemon grove. It was fine, our daughter just missed a bigger mirror. But at this place you should not stay in your bedroom, you must go out, eat, swim, chat with the people there (the boss is an incredible lady) and enjoy the surroundings.

The rooms were okay and the food was quite good, but the place lacks the charm of a typical agriturismo. The owner didn’t seem to care about the guests in general. We were forced to dine inside due to an event outside that went on late, disrupting our sleep. Also for breakfast we weren’t offered to have our food outside. It’s a shame given that the property has beautiful views. When we asked for a farm tour, she ignored our request. Additionally, we were incorrectly charged for drinks we didn't order, which we had to resolve at checkout. All in all I would only recommend the restaurant of this property but not the accomodation.

The pool area was not greate. You needed to pay for the sunbeds and umbrella. And you had to wear a swim cap and pay for it. The stuff at that area was not friendly. The room was ok and clean. Good food. But not super nice atmosphere.

They treated us like family. Great rooms. Excellent restaurant
