We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be coming back soon! The view from our room was amazing, and we enjoyed being in the center of the town. The walk down to the beach was right next to our hotel, which was very convenient. There are several lunch and dinner options next to the hotel, and the hotel restaurant is a great choice as well. The service was spectacular. My fiancé and I stayed for 5 days, and the staff was extremely helpful to help plan the proposal and other activities throughout our trip.

This hotel has THE BEST VIEWS of Positano and staff treat you like royalty here! The jacuzzi in the room with views were spectacular. More options for free breakfast would’ve been nice. VERY HELPFUL how they coordinate porter service for getting luggage to/from the ferry port as Positano steps/hikes daily to/from beaches, shopping & restaurants is insane!
