  Perfect!

  06 May 2026

  Beautiful hotel on street level in Positano! Rooms are big and updated. Balcony not huge but had a sea view. It was nice we were able to access it at street level as you had the option to walk down the road to the town and beach rather than take the stairs, which you could also do. There is an elevator on the street which is convent for drop up and pick up by a driver. They also offer laundry service which was great as this was our second stay. The staff members were incredible, especially the front desk, breakfast and bar staff. The young man who was in charge of the wine was very knowledgeable. The only complaint was the restaurant meal we had for dinner on our first night. The waitress was extremely aggressive and we felt she trying to push certain items on us. The food there was just OK. The breakfast however was amazing. Omelets made to order, meats and cheeses, pastries, fresh fruit and much much more. And of course the wonderful cappicinos and fresh squeezed OJ. I would highly recommend this hotel for your next trip to Positano! katia Cannavacciuolo, Marketing at Hotel Montemare, responded to this review Dear Guest,Thank you so much for your beautiful review and for sharing your experience. Knowing that you appreciated our hospitality, the efficiency of our services, and the helpfulness of our staff — especially the reception, bar, and breakfast teams — fills us with pride. It was a true pleasure to have you as our guest.Regarding your note about our restaurant, we would just like to share a brief word about the service on your first evening. While promoting our dishes is a natural dynamic for any business, the primary goal that has always guided our philosophy is not selling for its own sake, but rather offering the most authentic hospitality. Our true intent is to guide and advise our guests, helping them discover and enjoy our products based on their own preferences and desires.We are confident that our team member's approach was simply driven by an excess of enthusiasm in presenting our menu, and we are sorry that this was perceived as pushy, resulting in a slight misunderstanding.Thank you once again for your valuable feedback, which always helps us grow, and we hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back to Positano in the future.Warmest regards,

  Absolutely Magical!

  27 Oct 2025

  Where do I even begin? This place is a dream. The moment we walked onto the terrace, the view took our breath away—it's the iconic, classic Positano postcard scene, and it's 10 times better in person. I swear I spent hours just watching the boats go by!But the real heart of this hotel is the incredible team. They are GENUINE in their hospitality. I felt welcomed, not just as a guest, but as family. A massive shout-out to (mention a staff role, e.g., the concierge) who literally went out of his way to book us a last-minute boat tour and printed custom hiking maps. They truly want you to have the best vacation possible.And the food... oh my goodness, the food! Every dinner was genuinely incredible, and the breakfast spread every morning was divine.Do NOT skip the cooking class! This was easily the highlight of our trip. We spent the afternoon with our chef (who was so patient!) learning the secrets to making authentic pasta, stuffed ravioli, and perfect gnocchi. It felt relaxed and hands-on—he let us handle the dough and explained the why behind every step. The best part? Eating our incredible creations on the cliffside terrace as the sun was setting. It was the most magical, movie-like dining experience I’ve ever had.If you are thinking about booking, stop thinking and just do it. Highly, highly recommended!! I can’t wait to go back. katia Cannavacciuolo, Marketing at Hotel Montemare, responded to this review 🤩 A Heartfelt Thank You from the Hotel Family!Your review completely filled our hearts with joy and is the greatest reward for our entire team. Reading that your experience was a “dream” and that our iconic view exceeded your expectations is the highest compliment we could receive. The sight of Positano is indeed magical, but it is even more special when we know it helped create unforgettable memories for you.We are particularly pleased that you noticed and appreciated the genuine spirit of our team. Considering you a part of our family is exactly the atmosphere we strive to create. A special thank you from our [Mention the Staff Role, e.g., Concierge] for your shout-out; the dedication to arranging your last-minute boat tour and custom hiking maps is what we mean by hospitality.And of course, the Food! It is wonderful to know that both dinners and the breakfast spread were to your liking. But the true highlight was your enthusiasm for our Cooking Class. Our Chef is honored to have shared the "secrets" of pasta, ravioli, and gnocchi with you. There is nothing more gratifying than seeing you enjoy your creations, accompanied by the magical atmosphere of the sunset on our cliffside terrace. It is the "movie-like" experience we hope every guest can have!Please don't "stop thinking" about it—just book! We cannot wait to welcome you back home to Positano soon.

  Highlight of Our Trip

  10 Sept 2025

  We stayed at Hotel Montemare in Positano for two nights in September as part of a 13-night vacation, and it was the highlight of our entire trip. The hotel itself is fantastic—modern, immaculately clean, and equipped with all the amenities one could want, including a fitness room, spa, pool, hot tubs, and breathtaking views.The location is superb, just a 5-10 minute walk from the Positano city center and all the main streets you would want to explore. Additionally, there is a direct path from the hotel down to the beach, which requires traversing a few hundred steps, as is to be expected in Positano.Where this hotel truly went above and beyond was with its staff. Every team member we encountered during our stay was incredible. They consistently went out of their way to elevate our experience through thoughtful details, including welcome drinks, meticulous attention to detail, goodnight gifts, and more.If I could give this hotel more than five stars, I would. I recommend that anyone planning a stay in Positano strongly consider Hotel Montemare. katia Cannavacciuolo, Marketing at Hotel Montemare, responded to this review Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us!

  Honeymoon Stay at Montemare

  My wife and I stayed here for 3 nights during the last leg of our honeymoon July 2025. We had an amazing time at this hotel and they are deserving of 5 stars!

  Best hotel in our worldly travels

  30 May 2025

  The best hotel in our world travels. The family and staff create a phenomenal experience combined with location and views. It was hard to leave to explore town because of all the little touches the staff did. From reception to taxi to dinner reservations to bartenders and service staff all amazing. On top of that a great lemoncello class with one of the owners and a birthday surprise. Definitely a place we want to return!!
