Beautiful Beach Apartment.
This place is located right in the middle of Positano. Close to everything. Very helpful and responsive host. Nicely furnished and spacious inside. Great balcony. We stayed for our honeymoon and loved it!

A casa dei Sasso, breathtaking view!
Beautiful villa with a gorgeous view from terrace. Air conditioning worked great and plenty of room for four adults. Because of the many steps a porter service was needed. Laura was a great help in arranging the porter service.

She was an amazing host, even helped us check in a little bit earlier because I was feeling sick. She responsive and guided us to the apartment. She took care of all our needs, left snacks too which were very welcomed after a long day of travel.

In Villam temporary house
This modern and comfortable oasis was perfect for our quick trip to Pompeii. Adriana was the most amazing Airbnb hostess I have ever had! She was accommodating, communicative and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was five star! The space is inspiring, beds comfortable, rain shower amazing and the garden access beautiful! It’s walkable to a market for food and general supplies and has cafes and some shopping nearby. So glad we found this place!!! It’s only about a 6 minute drive from Pompeii center.

Blackbirds' garden
2 night stay with children in an oasis of calm. Fantastic hosts with great communication, helpful recommendations and the most generous complimentary items I have experienced. A perfect location to explore amazing and vibrant Naples yet sleep in peace and wake up to the sound of birds. We loved Naples and the pizza really is that good. Highly recommended and a 10/10 stay and experience.

Rental House I Gelsomini
What stood out the most was, Chiara. She’s lovely! Kind, knowledgeable, happy to help, patient and basically a delight. She really made our stay with the right recommendations and friendly smile. We are very happy to have met her and have stayed at her family’s place- super clean, cozy, everything we needed.

NapoliStayIn Central Flat in Naples
We had a great time staying here. The location is handy to the historic center with plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby. Livio was very helpful and flexible when travel plans changed.

Blue sea apartment
You HAVE to stay here! The apartment is absolutely beautiful, and the terrace view is gorgeous. Candida was unavailable at the time, but she was communicative and her friend Maria checked us in. She was very responsive, kind and helpful. She gave us a full tour and she provided tons of local recommendations. We would definitely stay here again! (There’s also an elevator so you do not have to travel up all the flights of stairs with your luggage, but there are steps to get all the way down to the beach so be ready for a walk!)

Old town flat Napoli
A nice, comfortable apartment in a very central place. Surprisingly calm and quiet in spite of the huge number of people outside. Emanuela was extremely helpful and friendly. For example, when there was a small issue with the toilet, she had it fixed in one hour even though it was Christmas. Warmly recommended!

EntireApartment SpaccaNapoli

Positano & Capri Seaview garden | WiFi AC
Alessandro is an excellent host. Thoughtful and responsive before, during and after our stay. The villa has everything one would need and expect. Comfortable beds, plenty of hot water, and the essentials needed for a visit to this amazing place in the world. The climb to the villa is not for the faint of heart. Reaching the villa is a significant achievement every time … a solid stairmaster workout. Take Alessandro’s advice and hire a porter for your luggage. Best investment you’ll make while there. Some very nice restaurants and cafes to walk to, many more to enjoy via taxi, bus, etc. THE VIEW is amazing and worth it all. A+ experience in a wonderful, peaceful setting. Book it.

Villa with private pool in Sorrento/Amalfi Coast
Where do I begin? Everything was PERFETTO! The home was absolutely gorgeous with views from two small terraces off of the bedroom and living room overlooking the cliff homes and the bay. The sunsets were breathtaking from 5 different outside terraces that cascaded down alongside the house from the pool down. The delicious homemade lemoncello left for us and the nice breakfast snacks were wonderful with our morning coffee. There is also a menu to have food delivered which was great after a long day of walking. Our host Antonino was fantastic! He stopped in to meet us, helped with suggestions, and helped carry our luggage to the car when leaving. The "supermercato" was cute and more like one of our corner stores but had everything we needed. This was by far our favorite stay during our holiday. Peaceful, quiet, and serene. If I get the chance, I will definitely stay here again. Antoni was accommodating, went out of his way, and was a super, super, super host! I cried happy tears!

Villa INN Costa P

Villa Esposito – Rustic Family Home with Sea View
We loved staying at Tina’s place. It was stunning but at the same time very comfortable. We all slept very well. The bedrooms were beautiful and each had their own bathroom or ensuite. The pool was great as well. Tina was such a lovely and helpful host. She obviously cares about her guests and the villa. We loved the location and would recommend a car. It was so quiet compared to Sorrento and the Amalfi Coast. We would definitely recommend Tina’s place and would love to go back one day. Grazie Tina.

Beachfront villa on the Amalfi Coast
Maurizio's Villa was even better than expected, the view day and night was spectacular. Maurizio met us at the entrance gate and lead us to the door. The information he gave us online and in person was very helpful. We couldn't ask for a better better host. Maurizio and his Villa definitely are 5 star! There are a number of steps down to the entrance, if you have heavy luggage you may want to arrange help ahead of your arrival.

Overview exclusive seaside villa
The views from the house are amazing!! Must watch sunsets! Large space house. Many patios!! Not walkable as we expected. 12-14 minute drive to amazing town of Sorrento! 4 minute drive to the awesome town of Massa Lubrense. We were tired from our travels to house at check in. Olympia made reservations for a nearby restaurant the owner of the restaurant picked us up!!! What service. We chartered a boat to Capri from Massa Lubrence NOT Sorrento. Very convenient!! We would definitely stay there again

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.
