Villa Bambù stands on a hill in Maratea, immersed in a typical Mediterranean garden where the colours and scents of nature blend together. We are in the countryside with the mountains in front but in reality at the seaside, in Maratea, the coastal pearl of Basilicata. From the elegant verandas that surround the house, one feels suspended between the sea and the mountains with Monte San Biagio standing out imperiously in front, above which towers the tall statue of Christ the Redeemer and from which one can enjoy a splendid panorama of the coast and the mountains, a scene of incomparable beauty. An old sheepcote that has been restored and transformed into a holiday home, its privileged position allows you to enjoy the coolness of the countryside but also to enjoy the sea and the beautiful beaches of this "pearl" set in the Gulf of Policastro and overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea. The comfortable and functional furnishings are characterised by an elegant style in white and soft colours, in perfect harmony with the typically Mediterranean environment in which it is immersed. The tastefully furnished verandas, equipped with comfortable masonry sofas and elegant little outdoor sofas, and the large French windows that create a constant union between indoors and outdoors, allow you to fully enjoy life in the open air. The villa is located in a residential area but enjoys privacy and tranquillity and is just a few minutes from the centre of Maratea and the small surrounding hamlets where all useful
