The view of the sea were breathtaking. The hotel was immaculately clean and tidy. Room was lovely and spacious with reasonably priced mini bar. Enjoyed having breakfast delivered to room to eat on balcony. Bed was very large and comfortable. Up to date electronic equipment and carving points. Amazingly powerful monsoon shower and large bathroom space for toiletries, etc. All staff were lovely and friendly throughout our stay.

View of the beach was incredible from our room. We paid a lot but we thought the hotel would just be "okay" thinking it was just the average price for hotels in the resort town, but in fact we were blown away by the facilities and quality of service. The breakfast buffet was incredible as well.

Room was clean and had everything we needed for a budget stay. No view, but the little balcony helped us wash clothes. Good size, strong shower. Location was good but a little further from the centre than anticipated - take your time on the stairs, there's more than you think! The absolute best part of this place was the view from the bar / restaurant area. We enjoyed a bottle of wine waiting to check in and it was beautiful. A special breakfast the next morning which I'll remember. V friendly staff!

The beauty of the town is unreal, but it is built on steep hillsides which means that narrow roads and switch backs are not recommended for the unseasoned driver not used to such terrain. If you're not in shape when you get there, you will be by time you leave. There are many, many, many steps and paths around the town. It's very picturesque but also very demanding physically. Probably not the best town for the elderly or those with physical challenges. Taxi's are the best mode of transportation though there is a good local bus system however, busses only come by hourly, and because of the congrestion they are rarely on time.

The views of Positano are amazing .
The views of Positano are amazing . Everyone is really friendly and the food amazing . You need to be fit to get up and down the hills and steps. There were 3 really good restaurants very close to Florida residence and they were all good but our favourite was Saraceno D’oro had the most amazing pizza and lasagne and the staff were all really good

One of the most stunning places I've ever visited.
One of the most stunning places I've ever visited. Relatively unspoilt as it's difficult to reach and very expensive. Felt like an exclusive holiday location. Colourful buildings springing out of the hills, beautiful climate and STUNNING flora and fauna. All in all, one feels like one has been dropped into paradise on earth. Visiting in April is to be recommended as it feels neither too hot nor too crowded. I can't sing its praises enough. Travelling can be tricky if you have older people in your party - almost every route around the town involves steep steps. Spoilt for choice in terms of eating - we didn't have a bad meal. Shout out to Il Capitano (higher end) and Il Fornillo (slightly more reasonably priced). Recommend day trips to Pompeii and Vesuvius, the Amalfi coast (from Positano to Maiori), boat trip to Capri and Anacapri, and Sorrento.

Positano is absolutely amazing, but be ready to walk a lot...
Positano is absolutely amazing, but be ready to walk a lot of stairs, on very very steep trails. Respectfully, this place is not ideal for unfit people. Depending if you’re staying close the beach or on the upper side of the city, you will either have to take the stairs with your luggage or get a taxi, which is not cheap there.
There are a lot of good restaurants to choose from, and also very affordable, even though the city is rated to be quite expensive.
The beach is relatively small, so don’t expect to find a spot to lay down on the sand if you’re travelling during the summer season. As we visited in march, the weather was 10-18 degrees Celsius, which was prefect, also we avoided the crowds and the Mediterranean summer heat of June-August.

Is picturesque.
Is picturesque. Very hilly so if you have mobility problems would be best avoided. It is expensive even for little things like snacks I found it financially beneficial to have a proper meal. Other than that an enjoyable place to visit.

The Amalfi Coast is a beautiful destination to visit in...
The Amalfi Coast is a beautiful destination to visit in Italy. Originally, when booking this location, I thought the area was sold out-it was hard to find accommodations. But once we arrived we learned that the entire Amalfi Coast pretty much goes silent from November to late March. The area has limited restaurants open as well as hotels. So we were lucky we found a home in which to stay. Use the bus SITA to buy a trip to Amalfi to spend 4-5 hours. Well worth the 3euro cost. Other locations available too on this bus line. Sorrento can be visited as well using the public transportation. The winding roads leading from Sorrento to Positano and then to Amalfi will leave you spell bound. Sharp drops, scenic ocean views and the lovely speckle of homes up and down these cliffs is just breath taking. Highly recommend a visit to the area.
We loved everything about Villa Magia. The concierge went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful, arranging transport and luggage pickup, making lunch and dinner reservations, and all around ensuring we had a great stay. The facilities are great and the view from the main terrace is the best in Positano in our opinion. We liked that the hotel was accessible to the center but not right in the middle of the crowds, and our stay felt very relaxing. Also highly recommend their terrace restaurant Luna, excellent menu and again great service.
The room was incredible and modern. The view from the room and the terrace are breath taking! Everything was very clean and Valerio our host is an amazing person! Everything was well organized and Valerio helped us a lot with coordinating our transfer and recommending the best restaurants. We also stayed in other hotels in Positano however the service and hospitality we received at Terrazza Zaffiro was the best. We are looking forward to come back to this beautiful place.
I loved everything about the property. From the aperitivo terrace, the restaurant, the coffee, the room and it’s balcony, the overall service of the staff including Rosita who brings so much happiness to the hotel with her disposition and helpfulness, to the pool, and overall grounds. The location is stellar! Also, they are pretty much able to organize anything you need. I don’t understand how the hotel isn’t 5 stars. It’s better than some 5 stars hotels I’ve stayed in :)
This was the most beautiful luxurious hotel. We stayed here for our honeymoon and felt like we didn't even need to leave the facilities to have an incredible time. The breakfast was wonderful and they even delivered it to the room. The Turkish Spa and jacuzzi were lovely, and they even had several beautiful outdoor areas where you could enjoy drinks from the hotel. There is even private access to a wonderful little beach. This a great find for Positano!
location is Amazing! The Villa was immaculate, comfortable more like a 5 star hotel. The staff essentially was available for every need we have, booking taxis and tours whatever we needed and made sure everything was perfect! I recommend Villa Aldo Marino, our Hostess Viviann who saw after each request,and Staff Marco who made us amazing breakfast every morning and of course Aldo who helped with the luggage and smiles…. Bellissimo Villa Aldo!
Cada Pietro is a place to be in Positano, it’s really well located just beside the main road( which is the best way to get to town and avoid the hundred and hundred steps ) nice restaurants close by ( at main road). The place was so clean, spotlessly. The owners are so welcoming and helpful and the bed and shower was the best I got during my trip to the Almafi Coast/ Capri. Great value for money! Literally a 5 star guest house !
Amazing stay at Hotel Poseidon for our honeymoon - we checked in the day after our wedding and had the most amazing stay. The staff were exceptional and the service throughout our stay was top class. We were upgraded to a suite with fantastic views across Positano and also received a lovely welcome bottle of Prosecco. The restaurant was exceptional and one of the best meals we had on the Amalfi coast.
Clean functional room with a large balcony and sun beds. Private enough. Bathroom: sparkling clean. Tiled floors: spotless and welcoming.
The owners were gracious and kind and professional. We felt welcome and pampered.
Access to Positano center and Praiano was easy by car. Buses available but we did not take any. Hotel shuttle available but we did not need it. All good !
This is one of the best hotels i stay at in Italy, the location, the cleanliness, the magic view, and most of all, we were hosted by an amazing kind person Antonio. He helped us a lot before the arrival on the way arounds, the luggage and recommendations in where to eat and go during our stay. Thank you Antonio for making our stay an outstanding experience.
Everything was amazing. The host was 5 stars with us from the start to the end. Always helping us, always caring about us and asking if we needed any help.
The house is perfect, it has everything that you need and it has AC. The only problem is the amount of stairs you have to climb to reach the house but Positano is full of stairs.
It was perfect.
The hotel deserve to be 5 stars. My room had a full view on the sea with a big balcony. The bed was so comfortable, our room was well decorated with a bottle of champagne waiting for us. All The personnal were so nice so kind and was helping us to carry our luggage from the stairs of positano. They made our stay there memorable.
Grazié mille.
The hotel was so beautiful, the staff was so sweet and helpful. Also, the breakfast was our favourite in the entire 2 weeks in Italy. The hotel is located a 5min drive or 20min walk to center of Positano but they have free shuttle service so it was super convenient!
Highly recommend this beautiful spot :)
The view was breath taking! The breakfast area overlooks all of Positano- great for photos! There are also two other rooftop decks for beautiful sunset photos. The brunch was exceptional and the service was 5 star! We were very happy with our choice of hotel and it was our favorite of our whole trip.
This hotel is by far the best value for money you will get located in the heart of Positano with a breathtaking view of the Positano hillside as well as the beach. Giuseppe, the hotel manager was also very kind and welcoming, and always made sure all our needs were met.
The room and the the hotel area in general was super clean and well looked after. Close to the city centre but far enough to have a lovely romantic staying experience.
As a huge bonus it is located just above the best beach in Positano - Arienzo.
The best hotel we have stayed in during our trip to Italy
Breathtaking view of the sea.
The staff were extremely nice and helpful
Do not use google maps to get to the hotel as we did, you will end up clamping more than 1000 stairs steps.
The views are exceptional! Tess was amazing! She provided some of the best breakfast I’ve had with staying at hotels. She arranged the porters for the luggage and the transportation to the villa! 5 stars and definitely will be back.
Very polite and helpful staff. The rooms are simple in typical old Italian style but very clean and comfortable. This hotel has one of the best views of Positano. Location is just great- close to the beach, shops and restaurants.
Espectacular place with amazing view, Carla is amazing. She contact us and gave all the information needed for our stay in Positano. Carla’s breakfast was the best on our stay in Italy! 100% recommended!
