Our Picks

Centro
Occupying the 18th-century summer palace of King Joachim Murat at the heart of Positano's central piazza, this elegant property delivers maximum character in the most central location. The bougainvillea-draped garden courtyard and proximity to the church beach make it one of the most romantic settings on the coast.
Centro
A charming, family-run small hotel near the church of Santa Maria Assunta, Villa Rosa offers simple, well-maintained rooms and a terrace with views at some of the most accessible prices in central Positano. An honest, warm alternative to the village's many overpriced poseur hotels.
Centro
Perched directly above Positano's main beach at Via Rampa Teglia, Buca di Bacco is the most animated hotel in the village — the beachside restaurant and bar is the social hub of Positano's high season, and the rooms directly above the Mediterranean action make it the liveliest address in town.
Chiesa Nuova
High above the main village on the hillside of Chiesa Nuova, La Scalinatella is Positano's secret hideaway — a clifftop property offering some of the most dramatic panoramic views on the entire Amalfi Coast, with an intimate atmosphere and genuine tranquillity away from the tourist thoroughfares.
Fornillo
A smaller, more intimate alternative to Positano's grande dame hotels, Eden Roc sits on the quieter Fornillo beach with direct sea access and excellent value for the Amalfi Coast. The family-run character, pool terrace, and laid-back atmosphere make it a popular return destination for guests who appreciate quality without ostentation.
Centro
The uncontested jewel of the Amalfi Coast, Le Sirenuse has occupied its clifftop position above the main beach since 1951, when the Sersale family first opened their ancestral home to guests. The pink palazzo, Champagne bar, and La Sponda restaurant — where every table is lit by hundreds of candles — deliver a version of Italian luxury that sets the global standard.
