Room and bathroom very well equipped and updated. View from room was amazing! Breakfast on patio/balcony was especially nice. Staff goes to great lengths to ensure satisfaction. Many good restaurants are within 5 to 10 min walking distance I'm convinced that anyone traveling to Positano would be pleased with these accommodations. I WILL go back one day!

The family owned hotel people were the best. Always with a happy greeting, glad to help with anything. Restaurant reservations, personal drivers, taxi’s and recommendations for places to visit. Loved our room, view, breakfast prompt in the morning, bar in hotel. We are really looking forward to returning to our hotel soon.
Wine on our terrace on arriving day.
Photo of part of Positano from our terrace.. right before nightfall. Beautiful!
Another view from our room to the wonderful Mediterranean Sea.
