A Perfect Italian Stay!Our stay at this beautiful Meta home was absolutely unforgettable. The home itself is the quintessential Italian home-charming, comfortable, full of character. It’s centrally located, just a short walk to the train station making it easy to explore.What truly made our stay special was the incredible family who owned the home. They went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, even having a cooking class that is one of our favorite memories from the trip. The hospitality, warmth and attention to detail were unmatched.If you are looking for an authentic experience that captures the heart of the Amalfi Coast, stay here. We can’t recommend it enough.

Fantastic Home!
Four of us stayed at this property for 5 nights and we loved it! It's just like the pictures- gorgeous views and beautiful home. You can easily see the Mediterranean from the patio.The neighborhood is quiet and very scenic. The property owner was very welcoming and helpful during our stay. It's close to the train station in Meta and it only costs €1.5 to ride to Sorrento We would stay at this home again!

Gorgeous Italian Home
Loved this amazingly beautiful home! Even better than the pictures. Large beds, lovely decor, and vast veranda looking over the sea. Great location for bus and train travel. We were able to walk and take public transportation everywhere (including Sorrento, Positano, Naples, and Pompeii). Some great restaurants in Meta too! Would highly recommend this property!

Family reunion
Casa Dorothea was a fantastic place to stay for my husband and I plus our 2 adult offspring who are not home much these days. Meta was a lot less touristy quieter than Sorento but the train station was only a 3 minute walk if we wanted to go to Pompeii etc. The apartment was spacious and beautifully presented and just as described, we loved staying there. Dora, Lorenza and Alfonso were all so friendly and helpful, a huge thankyou

Meta review
The place was great and as shown on the site. It was very clean set up very well with all items that we needed. We did not cook but the kitchen was well stocked if we had. The train station is within a few blocks which is great as it allowed us to go to Sorrento, Pompeii, etc. Sitting on the patio and watching the sunsets which were magnificent was one of our favorite things. Would definitely stay here again!!

Beautiful Property with Fabulous Views in a Great Location
We stayed at Casa Dorotea May 20-26. It was a wonderful property and Lorenza was a fabulous host. We arrived late evening and she met us and helped us get settled. She and her family have lived at Casa Dorotea for generations and the property was very well cared for. She gave us restaurant recommendations and tips on how to get to Sorrento which was 4 miles away (like taking the train vs. the bus). We absolutely loved the patio and would spend our nights sitting outside taking in the views and talking about our day and planning our next. In the morning, we would wake up to the birds singing sweet songs to us, and we enjoyed the smell of the flowers and lemons as we would sip our coffee on the patio. Overall, one of the most fabulous places we've ever stayed at and hope to be able to vacation there again!! Dave and Kristi Laufenberg

Beautiful Apartment
This apartment is the most beautiful place I have ever stayed. The coffered ceilings and orange groves are enchanting. We had a little trouble finding the parking, Meta does not have great cell coverage. I also wish the heat had been working, it was Christmas week and my 85-year old mother was uncomfortable without it.

Wow! It’s the best word to describe this home! Everything was as beautiful as the pictures and more. Lorenza and her daughter were kind and helpful and we wish we would have booked a longer stay. You will not be disappointed! If we had stayed longer we certainly would have booked a dining experience or cooking lesson. This home will be my inspiration to return to this area of Italy, hopefully very soon. Thank you for sharing this wonderful home with us!!

Beautiful home
This property was lovely...very spacious and decorated impeccably! One issue was ants...they were all over our bed and bathroom...made a very uncomfortable night's sleep. We purchased ant killer spray, but it didn't do the trick. We contacted host as instructed, but no answer. However, once we contacted VRBO, we were given information and an attempt was made to rectify issue.

Family stay
Casa Dorotea is a beautiful house to stay in while visiting the Sorrento area. Lorenza and her mother are wonderfully accommodating. They responded very positively by bringing us a space heater as the weather was unseasonably cool for a few days. The house is large and provided plenty of space for our family of 7.
The train station is about a 5 minute walk and then it’s a short 7 minute ride into Sorrento.
We found the neighborhood quite charming and very typical for Italy. The beach is an easy 20 minute walk. There is a grocery store nearby but its open hours weren’t always convenient.
We would definitely recommend Casa Dorotea for anyone planning to explore Sorrento, Pompei, or anywhere in the Campania region.

Great property, quiet location.
Property is great - exactly as described although read carefully - it does have air con but this is just in the bedrooms. The outside terrace is wonderful but the dining room is very exposed to the sun and gets very hot. Fans were needed in the rest of the property. Meta is quiet. There are some restaurants and small shops around but limited number. Some travel widens the choice. Piano is walkable and Sorrento is easily reached by train, the last back is 10pm. The station is conveniently close to visit Pompeii and Vesuvius, and Sorrento, and fares are very cheap. Boats go from Sorrento round the coast or there are buses but roads are windy. Overall would recommend staying here as long as you are happy using the train a fair bit.

Beautiful spacious apartment
Unexpected extra costs were not apparent up front e.g. €100 for cleaning and having to pay for electricity. This soured out last day. We were told it was a deposit but there was never any intention of giving any back. This makes me sceptical about using you again, and let’s face it there is plenty of competition!
