Villa Lysis

What can I say! This was one of the most beautiful spots in Capri. The sea, the view, the villa and the quietness were perfect.

Villa Lysis in Capri is a dreamy spot with breathtaking views and a unique charm. The villa itself is steeped in history, with an eclectic style that reflects its artistic past. Walking through its rooms and gardens feels like stepping into another era. The peaceful ambiance makes it a perfect escape from the busier parts of Capri. If you’re into art, history, or just want a serene place to soak up the island’s beauty, Villa Lysis is a fantastic visit—ideally in the late afternoon for magical lighting!

One of the loveliest places I’ve ever visited, even though it’s a bit far and uphill from the town. Most of the time I was completely alone in the area and it was magical. :)

This villa has a fantastic view to around. The garden is full of flowers and the building is open to visit. You can also go to roof of it to take photos.

SCAM! Don't purchase your ticket until you are at the Villa Lysis. We purchased tickets on the 29th of September at 1 PM at the Giardini di Augusto ticket's office. We then walked to the Villa Lysis (40 minutes climbing), and when we arrived, it was closed. Another dozen of people were in the same case than us. We called the phone number, which was not able to provide me with any information. They just told us to go back (another 40 minutes walking) to the ticket's office where we bought the ticket for reimbursement. When arrived at the ticket's office, they told us they didn't knew about the closure, and they couldn't reimburse us the tickets. They advised us to send an email to a manager, Mrs Frederico. We did it, and two days after, still no answer or any excuse. Such a poor client service, and a scam on top of it. This deserves to be signaled to the local police to prevent others to be scammed like us.

Villa Lysis is breathtaking. It was worth walking 45 minutes from center of Capri. The path also is beautiful and you will see a lot of villas of local people and lots of lemon garden. When you arrive you will be surprised by the design and gardening of Villa Lysis from 1904. You can buy tickets in advance or inside of Villa.

You can't miss this place! The story of the villa and it's first owner was super interesting. The building and the gardens are gorgeous

Beautiful location. Great views. Interesting history. However, very long walk with lots of hill, but its very cool to see the local villas.
