5 Cilento villages to visit within 30 minutes of Villa MaLuGio
Cilento is dotted with villages that seem frozen in time. Here are the five we recommend to our guests, all within half an hour of the villa.
Castellabate
Touring Club Orange Flag, set of 'Welcome to the South'. Narrow alleys, panoramic terraces and the Castle of the Abbot.
Acciaroli
The village of centenarians. Frequented by Hemingway, today one of the chicest spots in Cilento, with marina and seafood restaurants.
Pioppi
House-museum of Ancel Keys, father of the Mediterranean Diet. Green seafront, transparent sea, authentic atmosphere.
Pisciotta
Village perched above the sea, kingdom of menaica anchovies. Labyrinthine alleys and unforgettable sunsets.
Velia (Elea)
Ancient Greek colony where philosophers Parmenides and Zeno lived. Archaeological site immersed in greenery, with the Porta Rosa, the only Greek arch surviving intact.
