On the promontory jutting out from Mount Solaro, on the Anacapri plateau, stands a Roman villa, still fairly well preserved, characterized by a belvedere area, a residential area with a tricliniar hall, at the west end, and another private sector. The terrace of the belvedere develops along the edge of the esplanade, from one end to the other of the promontory, and consists of a long loggia with ambulatory arches and pillars, which runs from east to west, followed by a second raised and curvilinear section. In the first stretch, the outer loggia, originally covered by a small columned portico, corresponded to a second ambulatory inside, equipped with rest seats. At the end of the loggia there is a luxurious residential quarter. Obliterated under the medieval tower is an alcove, preceded by a vestibule and a belvedere terrace; while, to the west, under the loggia are two large living rooms. A torso of a naked male statue was found in a cubiculum (bedroom) in this part of the villa, while some remnants of mosaic floor and ducts for the canalization are preserved on the vast plateau that extends behind the loggia and the belvedere district.
