relaxing environment and incomparable beauty of Capri have always
been the two key factors in the island’s great success as a holiday
venue. It’s not surprising that Capri was the favourite holiday
destination of Emperor Augustus, who, in an agreement with the then
Greek city of Neapolis, asked for the isle of Capri, conceding in
return the larger and more fertile island of Ischia. For eleven years his successor Tiberius reigned over the vast Roman Empire from his home on Capri, where he also built his twelve legendary villas in the most exclusive and panoramic areas of the island. One of these villas is situated in the splendid locality of Damecuta: sea, rocks and lush vegetation; on one side a view of the Gulf of Naples, visible as far as the peninsula of Sorrento, and on the other the endless blue of the sea. In the vicinity of the Emperor’s villa, close to the road leading to the “Grotta Azzura”, stands the “Mulino”, which, before being converted, was an old farm-house and oil-press. How to get there
