Infinito Luxury Residence, Atrani (Amalfi Coast)

EliseRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This place is beautiful! The views are amazing, and do not disappoint. The wall to Amalfi is only about 11 minutes from here, and extremely manageable. It was nice to stay in Atrani, which was a but quieter than Amalfi itself.

The home of the Gods (24/7 support)

EmilyRating, 5 stars5 days ago
Anna’s place is truly a dream. The pictures don’t do it justice. Inside and outside views are incredible. I’ve stayed in Positano before but really enjoyed the smaller town feel of Praiano and highly recommend it!! There are several yummy restaurants in the area that are within walking distance and again the views are just stunning. Anna was very helpful, communicative, and responsive when we needed her. I also left my watch behind and she’s been kind enough to mail it back.

Penthouse terrace Napoli

Sue And RonRating, 5 starstoday
Lovely apartment with all amenities one needed Luigi was a great host and provided information as needed and met us at apartment and helped with luggage There are a few stairs to navigate so this was helpful Very hot in Naples which meant we could not use the beautiful outside balcony until after dark It is also worth mentioning that it is on the flight path for airport and planes start overhead around 0600 Minimal restaurants around so a fair walk to dinner

La Casetta B&B

MeaghanRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Regina is a great host and has a beautiful room. It comes equipped with everything you need. The washing machine was a huge plus. The location was great and very walkable, although we did struggle to find the place despite the directions. We walked to Posides and messages, Regina walked to meet us and was very nice! View from the balcony is amazing.

The Four Dames

ShannonRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Esther’s Airbnb was perfect for our Positano trip! Esther was very responsive when we had questions (some of which was already in instructions she provided ahead of time oops haha) and she still was willing to help! The Airbnb was perfect and had great amenities including shower gel, shampoo, etc. We loved her local recommendations as well. I would definitely recommend this place as it’s very close to the bus stop! (You need to use the bus to go down to the main area of Positano- do not try walking unless you want to do 30+ flights of stairs haha)

MIRTO SUITE- PEZZ PEZZ Amalfi Coast SUITES

CaitlinRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
I cannot recommend this listing enough! Praiano is quieter and less hectic compared to Positano and Amalfi and it was an amazing location for our few days on the Amalfi Coast. Pezz Pezz is the perfect location close to so many local restaurants and easily walkable down the steps to two beach clubs (One Fire and La Gavitella) as well as a lovely cocktail bar overlooking the sea (Cafe Mirante). La Gavitella also hosts a cooking class at their restaurant that can be accessed via the steps from the AirBnB. The hosts are very attentive to their guests and make check-in and check-out smooth and easy! The hosts were also kind enough to book a Taxi for us the evening before our departure so we could catch our ferry in Positano hassle free! The space is exactly as listed and incredibly clean and well kept. The views are exceptional and the surrounding area is safe and quiet. We would have loved to stay a few more days but are hoping we can make it back in the future!

Villa Rosario Amalfi

ZachRating, 5 stars5 days ago
Silvio and Leonardo are great hosts and amazing people. They are super friendly and attend to any need or question . The place is absolutely beautiful (one of the best views in Amalfi) and it was super clean. The apartment is also very large (much larger than we expected). Beautiful patio to sit on and relax at night and very peaceful location. Amazing hosts, we will be back.

Casa della Feluca

ChrisRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Wow! This place is worth booking for the views alone. We spent hours just sitting on the huge patio and staring out at the mountains, town and water. Pictures don’t do it justice, and you have to see it in person. The apartment itself is also wonderful. Exactly as described with lots of space and very clean. Plus, Claudia and her family are so kind. They were very proactive and helpful anytime we had questions. Thank you! We hope to be back one day.

POSITANO -B&B "ALL FRUIT HOUSE" -WI-FI -AC FREE

CarolineRating, 5 stars5 days ago
We LOVED Carlo’s Airbnb! It was a great location - private with a great view but still within easy walking distance (with some stairs). The place was very clean, great A/C, and a pretty outdoor balcony. The hosts were so communicative, responding quickly and reaching out with instructions, recommendations, and tips proactively. They also helped us organize transportation which was extremely helpful. Truly a lovely host and the best experience - highly recommend!

“Girella” Positano - A/C, Wi-Fi, Patio w/ seaview

JavierRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Gabriele was very attentive to anything we needed and the place was very clean, especially the bathroom. He also gave us plenty of recommendations of grocery stores, restaurants, coffee shops, pastry shops, and gelato shops that were near the location. It was a great place for 2, but just beware (especially in the warmer months), it will get your legs burning and you will be breaking a sweat to get there. All in all, we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend!

We had a wonderful stay at Casa Della Nonna. Salvatore was awesome. He greeted us when we arrived and was available throughout our stay. He also made restaurant suggestions and reservations for us. He arranged car services for several of our car trips. The house is very comfortable and pretty. The view is spectacular. Very private and comfortable. Thank you Salvatore for making our stay in Positano perfect.

Celebrity Suite - Big Terrace on the Sea

SydneyRating, 5 stars5 days ago
Raffaella’s place was amazing and would definitely stay again! The view was absolutely stunning and the room was very nice and clean, just what we needed. The location to meet for check in was a little confusing at first but we found her quickly. Rafaella’s brother was able to carry our luggage up and down when we came and left which was a huge help since there were so many stairs. Additionally and most importantly, my boyfriend proposed here on this beautiful balcony and I cannot thank Rafaella enough for everything she did to set up and prepare it for him. It was perfect !!

Casa Wanda Sea view apartment

NicholasRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Marinella's place was incredible. The most beautiful view from the living room that never got old throughout our stay. It was deceptively spacious and very clean. Only a short walk to the centre of Positano. Marinella herself was a friendly and very hospitable host who was quick to respond to messages and made check in and check out easy and stress free. We wish we could have stayed longer!

Dreamer's home

KevinRating, 5 stars1 month ago
This is my second time staying at Giovanni’s and I have to say it is one of the best views in positano in my opinion. It is certainly a hike to get up to the property but if you’re in reasonable shape it is fine and the views make it worth it alone. Highly recommend to anybody interested in staying here!

The Gem ~ᴘʀɪᴠᴀᴛᴇ ʙᴇᴀᴑʜ~

ChristinaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Our stay here exceeded our expectations. The view is gorgeous, the space is clean and extremely functional, and the location is perfect. The town is busy and bustling with tourists and locals. Embrace it. Take it all in. Lots of stairs as is typical with Positano. Take it slow. No need to be in a hurry. Take advantage of all the stairs by stopping to take in the views and get photos.. The shopping in the area is great and Vito's family owns and operates a clothing store/brand and a handful of local yummy restaurants. Even though we didn't have a lot of time to spend at our private beach, it is amazing and there is a small dock where you can arrange your boat tour to pick you up. The family that owns this bnb are so sweet and accommodating. The host is very responsive with any questions and even arranged a taxi on a day we felt like doing a little less walking. I woul definitely book this space again. Until next time..

CENTER Panoramic HUGE TERRACE WIFI

KellyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a lovely stay. The pictures of the view of Positano do not do the balcony justice- it is even better in person. We were extremely happy with the location of our apartment. The inside was very cozy, giving authentic Italian apartment vibes (nothing too flashy or fancy but everything you could need :)) Overall would recommend this apartment!

"Positano Hill Apartment" Comfortable & Charming

JoannaRating, 5 stars1 day ago
As soon as we booked Giulia’s property she was warm, welcoming and immensely helpful. She answered all of my many questions and provided very useful tips and recommendations weeks and days prior to our arrival. Once we arrived she greeted us at the meeting point and helped carry our bags to the property. She made us feel right at home and my only regret is that we couldn’t stay longer!

Casa Misia amazing view on Positano and Capri.

JenniferRating, 5 stars1 day ago
I cannot say enough good things about our experience. Everything from start to finish was just perfect! The apartment is located near the town center and is within walking distance from several amazing restaurants, the beach, the bus stop, and amazing shops including a grocery store. It also has the most beautiful view! Anna was extremely helpful leading up to our stay and during. She organized car transportation, dinner reservations, as well as a chef dinner hosted at the apartment, with several courses that were all family recipes and unique to the area of Praiano. This experience was worth every single penny! We really fell in love with Praiano. So many restaurants with the best food and very kind people, with zero crowd from the surrounding areas. We cannot wait to come back someday!

La Meridiana Azzurra - Blu view

CeliaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Great place in a wonderful setting. The views of Positano were spectacular from the outdoor patio. Having access to the elevator was very helpful especially when checking in and out. Be aware that there are a number of steps up to the access gate after a short walk from the elevator. Highly recommend this unit

Breathtaking view - Casa Caldiero Villa Il Riccio #1

MarkRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a great stay this week. Grady and Francesca were very hospitable and helpful with communication and recommendations. The villa was well appointed and close to restaurants, shopping, the water and ferries. A perfect base for exploring the Amalfi coast. The view from the villa was amazing! We will miss this great spot for enjoying wine on the terrace every night and coffee each morning. Positano was incredible! We got to experience this great community when Napoli won the Series A championship in a viewing party downtown. Overall a perfect vacation. Ciao!

Your guide to Positano

All About Positano

Nestled on southern Italy’s Amalfi Coast, Positano is a dreamy, vertical seaside town that boasts stunning pastel-colored villas perched on the faces of the cliff sides along the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea. The intense aroma of Positano lemons, a treasure of the Amalfi Coast, perfumes the air of this seaside village. You can taste these famous lemons infused in local desserts, salads, fish, and liqueurs, including limoncello, Positano’s favorite digestif.

From local art and crafts to custom-made leather sandals, hand-embroidered silk dresses, and ceramics adorned with vibrant colors and intricate patterns, Positano offers an exciting shopping experience that highlights local talent, artistry, and tradition. For a midday refresher, enjoy an afternoon aperitivo, a beloved cultural ritual consisting of a pre-meal drink, at one of the many spots throughout the village. Catch spectacular views of the sunset as shades of pink, orange, and red softly illuminate the cliffside town. In the evenings, you can explore Positano’s restaurants or head to a cozy espresso bar.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Positano

The best time to stay in a condo rental in Positano is during the spring and early summer months when temperatures are pleasant enough to take a refreshing dip in the sea. In the spring, vibrant bougainvillea flowers in various shades of pink and purple bloom, adorning streets and terraces around the town. During the fall and winter months, Positano is much quieter in comparison to the bustling spring and summer seasons. Temperatures usually dip during this time, and you can expect frequent rainy days. During the winter be warned that many shops, and restaurants close and reopen in the spring.


Top things to do in Positano

The Church of Santa Maria Assunta

In Positano’s town center, a few steps away from Marina Grande Beach, you’ll find The Church of Santa Maria Assunta, an important part of the city’s cultural and architectural landscape. The Church’s majolica-tiled dome, dazzling in shades of green, blue, and yellow, is one of Positano’s most iconic and beloved symbols. Set against the backdrop of the glittering sea, the magnificent church can be seen from various streets and spots throughout Positano and makes for magnificent photo opportunities.

Montepertuso

Just north of Positano is Montepertuso, another Amalfi Coast town, which is easily reached by car, bus, or foot. If you decide to walk over, expect to see spectacular views of Positano and the Tyrrhenian Sea. In Montepertuso there is a short hike leading you to the towering mountains above the town containing a unique geological formation, a massive hole in the stone face. Though the trail includes many stairs and a steep upward climb, you’ll be rewarded with spectacular views of the sea and surrounding landscape.

Spiaggia Grande

Spend the day on the black sandy beach of Spiaggia Grande. There is a small section of the beach reserved for public use, where you can lay out or play in the azure waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea. Cocooned in the seaside cliffs overlooking the water, Spiaggia Grande provides stunning views of the surrounding landscape and the colorful cliffside village.
