During her famous three-week Italian vacation in August 1962, Jacqueline Kennedy stayed at Villa Episcopio in the hilltop village of Ravello. The villa, a historic 12th-century structure that once served as a bishop's palace, offered the First Lady the privacy and "staggering view" she craved away from the prying eyes of the paparazzi. Jackie described the house as "the loveliest in the world," and it was here that she famously relaxed, swam in the Tyrrhenian Sea, and went water-skiing—her favorite sport—at the nearby beach club of the Palazzo Avino (then known as Palazzo Sasso). Her stay in Ravello was a pivotal cultural moment, as it helped transform the Amalfi Coast into a premier destination for the global elite. Today, while Villa Episcopio has faced periods of neglect and restoration, the "Jackie Kennedy suite" and the surrounding gardens remain legendary symbols of the era's glamour. Visitors to Ravello can still walk the same paths she took to the town square or visit the nearby Villa Cimbrone, which she also frequented during her stay.
