  Stunning hotel with views, great position & spacious rooms - Book it - you'll love it!

  13 Sept 2025

  What a beautiful hotel. Stunning! And in such a great position, albeit it's a bit of a steep walk up the hill after a long day at the beach right down below, but once you're up there, it's stunning, with views over Positano. With a gorgeous deck to sit and relax, eat or have a drink overlooking the water, boats, views of Positano, and amongst the vines and bougainvillea and lemon trees, and the HUGE rooms, which were so comfortable, with lots of space for luggage, and a tea/coffee facilities, free wifi, ensuite, and a balcony overlooking the same incredible views, well this hotel is definitely worth a stay. Shops and bars and restaurants right outside, a short walk down the hill to the main beach, but there's so much to see on the way down, and close enough to walk up towards Cafe Positano, and also on the doorstep of all of the best shops, this is a great location. Valeria and the staff were all fantastic, and so helpful, they booked our car, explained how to get around, and were just friendly all of the time. The only issue with this room is the shower is inside a bath, so a little tricky to get into and very small and slippery, so this may be a little tricky for many. But the room was airconditioned, quiet, comfy and spacious and beautifully decorated. No complaints here - we'll be back!

  PRIMO

  16 Aug 2025

  We spent 6 nights at the hotel and this is our 2nd time here. I must say the Staff are Primo along with the owner John and Niece Maria they always impress every time we come. The view from our room was spectacular. Probably the best view in Positano. The rooms are spacious and Very clean. The onsite restaurant, Ristorante Don Giovanni, is so good we ate there every night. Wherever we travel we always seek out the best food so it speaks volumes that we didn’t want to go anywhere else

  Fantastic staff, views, and breakfast

  The staff was so nice, helpful, and attentive. The location is centrally located and the views are stunning. We enjoyed the fabulous breakfast overlooking the water. I can’t say enough good things about the staff — they really helped us when we forgot something at the hotel.

  My husband and I stayed here, the view from our terrace was spectacular! Everyone was very friendly and helpful. A lot of stairs and steps throughout Positano, but that’s okay as you can burn off your pasta! We had a wonderful stay. Love this property!!

  Loved It!!

  Location is perfect, and everyone is incredibly friendly. Rooms are very nice, and the view from our room was probably one of the best in Positano. Anna and Gilberto are two of the best, and most kind people I’ve met in two weeks staying in Italy.
