What
customer think about our service:
Thank
you Agenzia Torre for your part in a really fantastic holiday!
Our flat was perfect for a couple, clean and comfortable, and
we had a really beautiful view of the bay from our balcony.
We found Amalfi had a lot to offer, we spent our time walking
along the ancient mule paths from Amalfi into the mountains
and surrounding villages.
We walked through terraces of lemon groves and vineyards heavy
with fruit, and higher up were treated to amazing panoramic
views over the bay and surrounding mountains. Wooded areas of
pine and chestnut were carpeted with a profusion of wild pink
cyclamen. Locals anywhere in the villages and paths were very
friendly and even offered us lemons or grapes from their family
terraces. We found the countryside behind the bustling tourist
centre of Amalfi wonderfully rustic; locals still use donkey's
and mules to carry loads of firewood up the steep paths where
many of the houses are still not accessible by road and farmers
can be seen carrying basketfuls of lemons to the market on their
backs.
The sounds of the valley include the dull clinking of the bells
of goats and mountain sheep and the regular church bells throughout
the day keep accurate time to the quarter hour! Every village
has several churches and chapels which are decorated with intricate
mosaics, painted ceramic tiles and frescos. You can see beautiful
coloured fish amongst the rocks when you go snorkelling just
a few metres from the beach and try travelling the Neapolitan
way - by boat. From the boat you can see how the pretty pastel
painted houses cling to the steep limestone cliffs above and
there are ruins of both Saracen and Norman fortifications dotted
along the coast.
The holiday and relaxation worked its magic, we came back engaged
to be married!

Bon
Giorno Fortunata;
I can't believe we have been home for a month. We just wanted
to say hello and thank you again for all your help and hospitality
when we visited the Amalfi coast.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at "La Volta" apartment in
Pontone which was even prettier than its pictures. Although
the village is very quiet it affords an authentic experience
of Italian life in the Amalfi area.
Now that it's November, we especially miss the beautiful weather
we enjoyed in Italy and meals on the terrace.
We hope you are doing well and enjoying some rest after your
busy summer.
Best regards,
Anita & Earl Slone

Dear Fortunata,
I would just like to say thank you for all your assistance
before we went to Italy and to let you know we had a wonderful
time in Amalfi on our holidays. The apartment was very nice
and the area is very beautiful.
We found the people of Amalfi very kind and friendly and your
son were very helpful to us.
We intend to return to the area in the future and I hope we
could do business again.
Thanks
again for everything.
Best
wishes.

Dear
Fortunata,
Just a short note to thank you for your assistance during
our stay in your interesting and beautiful town.
Although the weather was not good to us we had a thoroughly
enjoyable time. The Amalfi Coast is very lovely and it was
exactly what we had expected. At least we can say that we
have seen the peninsular hills covered in snow - very scenic
when contrasted with the beautiful blues and greens of the
sea, and the cliffs. People here cannot believe we saw Vesuvio
covered in snow!
The apartment Anna was also lovely. The views are as spectacular
as we had hoped. My only regret is that we could not sit out
more and enjoy the panorama, but then thats the risk we took
coming down in February!
We will visit Amalfi again I am sure, though we will probably
fly in only for a weekend, rather than drive and stay for
a week. We will be sure to contact you when we do.
Kind regards

Dear
Fortunata and family
I
am writing to say thank you very much indeed for all your
help and hospitality during my stay in Amalfi.
The
apartment was delightful, with everything to hand for a thoroughly
enjoyable holiday. It was an adventure finding new things
to try from the alimentari and the supermercato, making my
way back up to the apartment through the maze of passages
and stairways. It was nice to know you were nearby, and so
welcoming and helpful if I had any questions. My visit to
Ravello was lovely, and I managed to find my way back down
the many steps to Amalfi without making too many wrong turns!
The weather was wonderful and I felt really well-rested and
refreshed when I went home again.
This
was my third holiday in La Divina Costiera, I just cannot
take in the beauty of the scenery and every time it takes
my breath away. I keep meaning to try somewhere else as Italy
is such a beautiful country but somehow Amalfi draws me back!
I am sure I will be back again soon, and I will definitely
follow your suggestion and try one of your many other lovely
apartments next time. I keep telling everyone they must visit
Fortunata and stay in Amalfi!
With
many thanks

Chère Madame, Cher Monsieur,
Ce
fut un réel plaisir que d'occuper la spendide propriété
que vous m'avez louée à Castiglione di Ravello.
Tout
y était réuni pour un grand moment de vacances.
Merci

Dear Fortunata,
Again thank you for all your help!
"We are truly pleased with the service we received from Agenzia
Immobiliare Torre! Prior to, and during our stay, Mr and Mrs.
Torre and their agency accommodated all our requests, eased
our worries, and provided very helpful hints for travel in
the area. From the first time we stepped foot in Amalfi, they
treated us more like family than like customers. Everyone
went out of their way to be helpful and to give us a true
glimpse of the generosity, beauty and good spirit that abounds
in this town and the surrounding area. Our apartment was superb,
and our stay was delightful. Grazie, Mr. and Mrs. Torre!

Good
Morning,
I am writing to thank you for the lovely time that we spent
in Amalfi.
We rented the Villa Francesca from yourselves and it was absolutly
fantastic. The Villa was everything that you advertised that
it would be and was perfect for us as it was right in the
middle of Amalfi. As for Amalfi itself We were amazed at how
beautiful it was, the setting was perfect for my brothers
wedding and I can confirm that all of us had a fanastic time.
Thank you so much for the use of the lovely villa. Yours very
much in appreciation

Dear
Fortunata,
Thank
you so much for the week we spent in your lovely Amalfi apartment
Tania.
We had a wonderful holiday, and we all thought Amalfi was
just great - a beautiful place, and everything you need just
outside the door.
The views were amazing, and we took some very nice walks,
especially the one past the papermills (my legs were sore
for a while!)
Everyone was really friendly, and by the end of the week we
had learned the Italian words for the food we wanted to buy
in the shops. It was all very good fun.
The apartment was ideal too, and very well equipped. We loved
sitting on the balcony in the evenings and watching the world
go by.
It was easy to cook in and everything worked out really well.
Just an idea - the English (or some of them) like to make
a lot of tea, therefore a kettle might be useful. Also a bread-knife?
And we had a little bit of trouble with the electricity in
the kitchen - the oven seemed to make the electricity go off
sometimes, we didn't know why. Just to let you know!
Anyway thanks again for a really enjoyable holiday and all
the things you did to help us.
Very best wishes
Ted
and Kate Mole.
