The Ultimate Guide to Visiting Pompeii (Updated 2025)

"The largest private residence in Pompeii, named for a faun statue in the front courtyard and built in the 2nd century BCE, the House of the Faun has a vast rear courtyard and an exquisite, detailed mosaic of a battle scene — one of the most complete surviving examples of an elite Roman home, even better preserved than many similar sites in Rome." - Matthew Kepnes

I visited the House of the Faun in Pompeii and was truly impressed. Everything is so beautiful and well preserved — the mosaics and architecture are stunning. Pompeii itself left a deep impression on me, and I highly recommend everyone to visit. It’s amazing to walk through a city frozen in time since the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD.

Beautiful but Pompéi it's huge so I recommend a water bottle, sunscreen and comfy sneakers because the road it's a little rocky

This luxurious residence features stunning frescoes, intricate mosaics, and a charming atrium, all centered around a striking statue of a faun, embodying the spirit of revelry and nature. The house's layout offers a glimpse into the lifestyles of Pompeii's elite, with spacious rooms designed for both intimate gatherings and extravagant celebrations. As you explore its beautifully preserved spaces, you can almost feel the pulse of ancient life and the whispers of tales told within these walls. A visit to the Casa del Fauno is a romantic stroll through history, where art and architecture beautifully intertwine to create an enchanting experience.

Amazing house and beautiful garden, don’t expect much from the statue as its very small but beautiful nonetheless.

Wonderful villa in Pompeii, if it is open it is a must visit even though a couple of the items are replicas of the original (Faun statue and Alexander mosaic). The front entrance is beautiful and the layout of the villa to handle both business and personal was very interesting. The mosaics in the house are very detailed and are indicative of a very prosperous owner.

A fairly well preserved aristocratic house that provides a glimpse into the tastes of wealthy Roman society. The house features some of the most famous art pieces in Pompeii, namely the statue of the faun and the mosaic of Alexander and Darius. The rooms are not the star here, but the mosaics make up for that. Definitely a must.

Luxurious villa with a famous mosaic of Alexander the Great. I would definitely recommend to stop by this place

Amazing place. So large. Really need more than one day to take the whole place in. An afternoon is just not enough. Bring your own water. Restrooms can be a ways away.
