La Belle Vie is a private house, built in the late XIX century, literally by the sea, extremely romantic. It was originally a fishermen house, with the nets being sewed at the ground floor and old stories of magnificent fish sailing in the bay. It is said that Ernest Miller Hemingway during his stay in Cilento stopped at Santa Maria and got the idea for his ?the old man and the sea? during his evening conversations with the local fishermen. Since then, La Belle Vie has always been a house of poetry, where guests who become friends come to enjoy their relaxing experience, thinking and talking about the essence of life.
