Our room had a beautiful view of Positano. It also had a tub on the balcony. Perfect location to explore Praiano without a lot of stairs or hills. I would recommend to anyone who is exploring the Amalfi Coast. No big crowds, great food and the best views. We took the bus to Amalfi and Positano. We took a boat back. The staff was very helpful and kind.

Some of the best sunset views in the Amalfi. What a treat! Close enough to Positano, but far enough to get out of the buzz. Wonderful restaurants on your doorstep! Praiano is a hidden gem. Cannot recommend it high enough. Giorgio was also the absolute best host in making sure we had all we need throughout our stay. Grazie Mille to the whole team!

This hotel is absolutely incredible! Small, family-owned vibe with incredible customer service. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming, as though we were family. The rooms are gorgeous, and the views are second to none. We also loved the complimentary breakfast buffet and that we were able to dine at the hotel’s restaurant every night during our stay. It appeared that the restaurant was exclusive to hotel guests, so we always got a table with a view. 10/10 would recommend for the trip of a lifetime!
