This place is beautiful!
Villa Jenny is gorgeous, a ton of space on a beautiful piece of property. A little off the beaten path if you want to be in Sorrento but within walking distance to beach and everything in Piano Sorrento. Francesco is very accommodating for driving anywhere you want to go and can take you himself on a driving tour of the Amalfi coast and Pompei. He also has great recommendations for restaurants and quick places to grab a bite. Also make sure to ask Rosa to make you a traditional Italian meal. She’s a wonderful cook. Only down side to our stay was that we were traveling in April and the villa is not heated, so we made good use of heaters and blankets. I think it would have been amazing to stay here in the summer with all the windows open and the breeze coming in off the sea.

I just returned with 3 friends from a 12 day Italian adventure. We hit Rome, Florence, and finished our trip at Villa Jenny and it was absolutely perfect!
The villa is incredible...beautiful, historic, very clean and the views are breathtaking. I already miss mornings on the terrace and walking through the garden. We hired Francesco as our driver for our entire stay at Villa Jenny and that was one of the best decisions we made. He was very knowledgeable about the area around Villa Jenny, Amalfi Coast, Naples and much more! He was not only a driver, but a fantastic tour guide who took us to places that we never would have found without him. If you are staying at Villa Jenny, do not think twice about booking Francesco! We also had Rossa come over to cook dinner for us. Everything was fresh and delicious and she taught us how to make gnocchi which was a lot of fun and the best gnocchi I've ever had. I highly recommend having Rossa cook a few meals. Her cooking is much different than what you will find in the restaurants and something that everyone should experience. We had her come our last night at Villa Jenny and wish we would have had her there another night but just didn't have enough time. Emma, the house manager is great as well and very helpful. With Francesco, Rossa, Emma, and the beautiful Villa Jenny, Sorrento was the best part of our trip. Thank you Vito for all of your suggestions and a beautiful villa - everything was PERFECT!
Villa Awesome!!!
This villa is extremely awesome and cool and HUGE!!!! There are 2 bedroom areas and 3 floors. The first bedroom area is very large and good for a large group of adults. The second one is smaller, with a lower ceiling, 2 bed "rooms" 1 daybed, a nice bathroom, a breakfast kitchen , and the giant balcony!!!!!!. Quite a ways up, but great for a group of kids up to 5, 2 in each of the "rooms," 1 on the daybed. Great views,amazing garden with tons of stuff and ping-pong table, 1st floor big kitchen, nice living room + dining room. Rosa, the housekeeper, made us some gnocchi, thin meat,and tiramisu for dessert! Awesome!! Luv Rosa's cooking!!! I❤️Villa Jenny!!

Stunning Vista
We had a wonderful time at Villa Jenny this summer. The house is so grand and gives you a great sense of time gone by. The huge airy first floor with 20+ foot ceilings and beautiful stained glass is amazing. Three large bedrooms on the 2nd floor all had views and big opening windows. It was warm when we were there so we put the floor fans to work. The beds were older but still comfortable. Children stayed in the top floor which had THE BEST VIEW of Piano di Sorrento. We had fireworks two nights right from the bay! Those rooms are pretty hot to sleep in but also had fans.
The garden was huge and fun to wander in and the kids played table tennis. There is no access to the grotto at the far end but it is interesting to look down into. The elevator to the beach is right across the road 5 paces. It is a very busy street but we did not find it a problem. There are restaurants in walking distanceof the villa but the best part for us was having Rosa teach us to make gnocchi - such a fun experience. She is delightful and a great cook.
We highly recommend doing this at least once during your stay.
The only downsides of this place are the busy road, some mosquitos in the garden, no A/C, some of the antiques you need to be careful around.
“Shangri-La” in Sorrento, perched above the Bay of Naples
Our group of five adults stayed at Villa Jenny in Piano di Sorrento for two-weeks, and from the moment we arrived we were made to feel like family by the owner and the caretakers of the property. The villa, which has breathtaking views from its perch overlooking the Bay of Naples, is nothing short of stunning. We felt as if we’d been transported back in time to a bygone era, but without sacrificing the comfort of modern amenities.
The descriptions and photographs of the villa on the owner’s website are accurate, but do not capture the ambience that makes this villa so special. The living spaces are cavernous, filled with many pieces of period furnishings and decorations, and the lush gardens which surround the outside terrace make you feel as if you’ve landed in paradise.
We enjoyed several Italian meals prepared by Rosa, a delightful woman who lives near the villa, and who was always ready and willing to assist us during our stay. Emma, another charming young lady, handled the greeting and check-out process with a smile; and Mario, the gardener who does such a fabulous job tending the gardens, was always cordial and willing to chat with us.
Finally, we emphatically recommend villa guests contact Francesco Ruggiero (+39) 333 6098988, a local driver and guide, to arrange airport and local transfers in his comfortable Mercedes van. In addition, he offers reasonably-priced excursions to the Amalfi Coast, Ravello, Naples, Pompeii and Mt. Vesuvius, which we thoroughly enjoyed. Francesco’s knowledge of the Sorrentine peninsula, combined with his jovial and heart-warming personality, make him unique.
We have no reservations whatsoever about recommending Villa Jenny if you want to visit the Sorrento area. Our only regret was that we had to leave, but hopefully we’ll return to this little piece of paradise in the future.
Rare Find - a Jewel indeed!
We were two families who stayed four nights and wish we had stayed longer. We barely scratched the surface of things to see and do, and meals to have. We took two day trips one to Capri and one to Ischia - both were wonderful. We had rented a car which was completely unnecessary so left it in the garage the entire time. Next time we'd rely on Francesco who was wonderful and and drove us to Naples. The Villa is simply incredible, like walking into another time, and the past is palpable and the beauty of Sorrento framed perfectly. Vito was extremely helpful and quick to respond. We feel extremely lucky to have been able to experience the Villa Jenny.
