Positano Hotels

Positano, of course, is one of the most famous hubs on the Amalfi Coast and, other than Amalfi and Praiano perhaps, has no rivals of note. The posh comune is still über-fashionable with the jet set but happily, is more accessible than ever. While that Campari soda and antipasto plate may not come at a discount price, who cares? Just look at that view and forget, for a moment, Positano’s reputation. This pristine area of Italy is a UNESCO World Heritage Site for a reason. The physical beauty of the hillside towns and natural beauty of the seaside landscapes both stand triumphant as exceptional gems. With Salerno and Naples a short distance away, visitors can take a day trip to the coast, crash in Positano for a night or three, and explore away.
