Walking

After approximately 15-20 minutes, you will see Villa Lysis on your left at Via Lo Capo, 12. The villa is slightly elevated, so you may need to walk up a small incline to reach the entrance.

Bus

From Piazza Umberto I, walk to the nearby bus stop (Capri - Piazza Umberto I). Take the bus towards Anacapri and ask the driver to let you off at the stop for 'Villa Lysis.' The bus ride will take about 10 minutes, and from the bus stop, it's a short walk of about 300 meters to the villa. Just follow the signs pointing toward Villa Lysis.

Taxi

While taxis are available in Capri, they can be more expensive. From Piazza Umberto I, you can easily find a taxi stand. Inform the driver you want to go to Villa Lysis, located at Via Lo Capo, 12. The ride will take about 5 minutes, and you'll be dropped off directly at the entrance.
