Good to know

All-round care

All round good vibes: everything to make it feel like a holiday from the moment you arrive.

Equipment

At A’ Cràpa Mangia, each apartment has its own terrace complete with a sea view. Enjoy it in comfort, around the table, stretched out on one of the sun loungers and pleasantly shaded by generous parasols. For a quick cool-down after sunbathing, jump under the outdoor shower.

A good night’s sleep is essential on holiday. Our extra-long beds and orthopedic mattresses invite you to rest and drift away with ease. Bed linen, towels, tea towels and tablecloths are included in the rental price, and free Wi-Fi is available across the complex. High chairs, cribs, children’s beds and bath stools are also available, as well as yoga mats for sporty guests. Just ask!

We love to cook. That’s why our kitchens are well equipped with a fridge, a gas hob and an oven. Pots, pans, glasses and crockery are on hand, allowing you to prepare your favourite dish or a new local one. For the baristas among you, we’ve got espresso machines and milk frothers. There are even juicers to help you start the day right or for a refreshment in between.

We offer our guests water in glass bottles, for the sake of the environment, and because we think it tastes best that way. Grab water from the farm shop and pay when you check out.

Finding the right temperature is an individual endeavour. Make yourself comfortable. We charge for firewood, heating and air conditioning according to consumption.

Young and old should feel equally at home with us. We also have entertainment offers especially for children. For toddlers and babies, we provide cribs, high chairs and bathroom stools at no extra charge.

Well-behaved, small to medium-sized dogs are welcome to stay in specially adapted apartments for an additional cleaning fee of €90. These apartments have terraces with a secure area for dogs to run free. Dogs must be kept on a lead though, as our estate is also home to free-roaming cats. Our sofas, armchairs and beds are of course reserved for our two-legged guests.

When is check-in and check-out?

Check-in starts at 4 pm, check-out during low season until 11 am, or during high season until 10 am. Individual arrangements are possible on request. Keys and access to the grounds will be provided on arrival from the check-in time. If you arrive late, you’ll still get to your key without any problems, even outside our office hours.

How does check-in and check-out work?

We’ll contact you by e-mail ten to 14 days before your arrival. You will receive directions as well as the telephone number for opening the automated entrance gate. For transfers, we’ll clarify that your arrival time has not changed. On arrival, you’ll get a short tour of the estate’s common areas and your apartment. If you leave before 9:00 am, the final bill will be prepared on the previous day. Simply leave the keys at the door or on the table and you’re good to go.

Is there Wi-fi?

Free Wi-Fi is available throughout the estate.

What is included in the room rate?

The total rent also includes a linen change after a 7-day stay. This doesn’t include heating or air conditioning, as both are charged separately according to consumption. For stays of less than six nights, a cleaning rate will be charged additionally, with the price depending on the size of the apartment. Extra cleaning can be organised for a fee of €12/hour. We also offer laundry for €6 per wash. You will get your clean laundry back to hang up to dry in the Cilentan breeze.

Does the accommodation offer breakfast or other catering services?

We rent self-catering apartments. In our self-service farm shop we offer a daily bakery service and some basic necessities. We have milk, butter, fruit juice, honey as well as fresh eggs from our hens. You can also buy home-made olive oil and water in glass bottles at the farm bar.

Please help yourself to the fruits and herbs as they ripen across our grounds.

In Santa Maria (a seaside district of Castellabate), a fruit and vegetable market takes place three times a week. On Saturdays, a weekly market offers everything from clothing to fruits, vegetables, and cheese. You can even order fresh pasta from us which we’ll pick up for you in San Marco.

Would you like to start your holiday with a stocked fridge? We can happily organize your first shopping trip before you arrive. Just get in touch with us.

Is it possible to book just one or two nights?

Of course you can stay with us for just one night. However, we charge an extra cleaning fee for stays of less than six nights.

Do you have any tips for good restaurants nearby?

Lots of them! And for all tastebuds. But beware: here in the countryside, restaurants have days off and opening times vary according to the season. Let’s have a chat on site and find out together which one is right for you.

What can you do in and around A' Cràpa Mangia?

This region has endless posibilities. You can go swimming, hiking, cycling, hop on a motorbike or play tennis and padel. There are numerous excursion destinations in the immediate vicinity (Castellabate, Punta Licosa, Punta Tresino, Agropoli) and memorable day trips (Pompei, Paestum, Vesuvius, Naples, Amalfi Coast, Salerno, Capri). Head to our activities page for more inspiration. But what we particularly recommend before you start planning, put your feet up and relax in the resort.

We offer transfers to and from the airport, as well as to and from the train station in Agropoli. On the way over you can even take the opportunity to stop off at the supermarket. A bus service to the neighbouring village of Santa Maria departs twice a day from the nearest bus stop about 300 meters from the estate. Shuttle services can also be organised on request.

If you cancel up to four weeks before the arrival date, 50% of the rental price will be charged. After that 80% of the rental price will be charged.
