Great location

So close to everything in town, but above the crowds. Great set up with 2 floors and 2 bathrooms. Kitchen had everything you need. Easy to take the back streets to shops higher up in Amalfi. As per other other reviews, living room furniture does not encourage lounging, so we mostly hung out in the bedrooms. Lovely cute decor.

Five wonderful days in Amalfi

We found the apartment to be just as presented in the Vrbo listing. It is very close to the center of Amalfi, with all the restaurants, shopping, and grocery stores one could want. We went on many day trips to Positano, Capri, Paestum, and Revello. The apartment is fully furnished and well equipped. The terrace has a view to die for. Yes, there are a lot of steps up to the apartment (116 in fact). But that’s going to be true anywhere in Amalfi, and we found a way to climb mostly on inclines which reduced the stairs considerably (to 77). A fabulous place.

Fantastic!

My husband and I and our two grandchildren ( 20 and 23) stayed 3 nights at Casa La Bifora - not nearly long enough. The apartment is comfortable and beautifully furnished —delightful in every way. The patio is huge! With our own private bell tower :) The location is great. At 74 years of age, we did not mind the 100 steps to the apartment. We went up and down many times a day. Great host! She gave us the information we needed to do a boat ride to Positano and she signed us up for The Lemon Experience, which we heartily recommend. We would return to Casa La Bifora in a heartbeat!

Rental Agency Non-Responsive

We cannot recommend this place, as the rental agency did not respond to our simple request to provide sheets for one of the beds.

Beautiful Apartment with Fantastic Location

The apartment was one of the cleanest I've ever stayed in. Everything was new and in perfect working order. Our host was very responsive and answered any and all questions. If you're choosing to stay in Amalfi, this is the place I would recommend. It is very close the center of town, however you hear no noise at the apartment or on the beautiful terrace. There are approximately 90-100 steps you must climb to get the the front door, however most places are double or triple that.
