Nonno Luigino in Vico Equense

The rooms were okay and the food was quite good, but the place lacks the charm of a typical agriturismo. The owner didn’t seem to care about the guests in general. We were forced to dine inside due to an event outside that went on late, disrupting our sleep. Also for breakfast we weren’t offered to have our food outside. It’s a shame given that the property has beautiful views. When we asked for a farm tour, she ignored our request. Additionally, we were incorrectly charged for drinks we didn't order, which we had to resolve at checkout. All in all I would only recommend the restaurant of this property but not the accomodation.

The pool area was not greate. You needed to pay for the sunbeds and umbrella. And you had to wear a swim cap and pay for it. The stuff at that area was not friendly. The room was ok and clean. Good food. But not super nice atmosphere.

The location (Vico equense) is perfect if you want to combine Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast with Pompei and Naples. The drive up from the town to the agriturismo is quite challenging at first, but you'll get used to it and it's not hard to find.

The agriturismo has only a few rooms. We were upgraded to a small selfcatering appartment, which was very nice of them. Not really suited for self-catering though, so if you're looking for that I wouldn't recommend it.

Although there are just a few rooms, the place is very lively with a lot of groups visiting (eg school classes and a communion-celebration). This is nice, bit also a bit uncomfortable with all these people looking at you while you're at the pool sunbathing...

The agriturismo is a working farm, but unfortunately there isn't much to see there.
Yes, there are some pigs and chicken, fruit trees and vegetables, but they don't really tell or show you. They sell homemade products (both food and beauty).

The swimming pool is quite small, but nice. There is a children's playground. Wifi is available in communal areas (not in the room). There aren't a lot of nice places to just sit and relax or read a book. So it's the swimming pool or leave to explore the area.

We didn't eat at the restaurant (it opened at 8PM, which is quite late for a Dutch toddler and was closed for a few days during our stay), but it's supposed to be good. Breakfast is nice (bread, Nutella/jam, some cakes, fresh fruit) but there isn't much variety and orange juice is horrible like in whole Italy (why don't they just squeeze oranges???).

Staff is very friendly. Some speak English. They adored our toddler and he loved them. They go to great lengths to accommodate any request (like a packed breakfast when we wanted to leave early).

Offer a bit limited as regards the catering services, with a price / quality ratio not balanced. Appreciate the commitment to enhance the structure. Service is not very attentive, but overall acceptable.

Beautiful setting, comfortable spacious rooms, good food and friendly, accommodating staff. The downside was the way in which the animals were kept. All were caged and had very little room to move around. The chickens were at quite a high stocking density and didn't seem to have access to the outside. The same seemed to be true of the goats. The pigs were kept on bare concrete and had no bedding - they didn't look at all happy. There was a sow which looked to be heavily pregnant and was kept in the same conditions. Maybe this level of husbandry is acceptable in Italy, but as veterinary surgeons with a particular interest in animal welfare, my husband and I found it very distressing. It seriously marred our stay. We would have given a 5 star rating if the animals had been happier, but because of the animal welfare issues we have given only 3 stars. We wouldn't return. There were also kennels nearby and the dogs barked all night - obviously not Nonno Luigino's fault, but our sleep was rather disturbed.
