About Posillipo

Posillipo drapes down a coastal hillside of villas and gardens overlooking the Bay of Naples toward Capri and Vesuvius. Parco Virgiliano, the fishing inlet of Marechiaro and the protected Gaiola marine park define its languid, green character; Villa Rosebery, an official Presidential residence, signals its standing. This is the city's premier luxury enclave, private, panoramic and car-oriented rather than walkable. Buyers come for the sea-view villas and exclusivity, accepting the lowest yields in Naples in exchange for the most prestigious coordinates in the city.
