Everyone's idea of a perfect holiday is different. This why we have included different types of interests and activities, with the important overall aspect of being situated in one of the most pleasant parts of the world—let alone Italy. You will have problems avoiding spectacular scenery, beautiful beaches, wild and cultivated flowers, birdlife and butterflies - whether on the coast or in the hills.

The weather is superb from April to October. The best time to stay is May/June and September/October. Spring is best for flowers and the return of the swifts ("Rondini"). The towns can be very noisy and busy in July and August.
Hotels,
apartments and B&Bs are typically small and family run. We have
chosen a small range set in the Castellabate Community. They vary from
c16th to brand new. We have stated the "Best time" for non Italians to
stay in every case.
Sambucus
Vacanze is located in Santa Maria di Castellabate - a commune in the
province of Salerno, southern Italy. The town is only 3km away from the
old town of Castellabate, 12 from Agropoli, 20 from Acciaroli and 60
from Salerno.
