I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, right by the beach and surrounded by great restaurants. The rooms were cozy and spotless, and the staff was incredibly welcoming. The only downside was the limited breakfast options, but everything else was fabulous. I had a fantastic time enjoying the well-maintained pool. The price was reasonable, but keep in mind that Wi-Fi is not included and comes at an extra cost.

Staying at this hotel was a wonderful experience. The rooms are fantastic with a huge terrace and stunning views, although some 'no view' rooms might not be as appealing. The service is top-notch, making my visit truly unforgettable. The location is exceptional, right by the beach with access to a private terrasse offering affordable sunbeds. The dining was delightful, especially with the epic view. However, a couple of downsides are worth considering.

I couldn't have asked for a better stay! The hotel's location is simply fantastic, right by the beach with an array of restaurants nearby. The rooms are not just clean and comfortable but also feature an AMAZING view, plus a large balcony to enjoy it. The service was top-notch, making my visit truly unforgettable. However, the dining experience left a bit to be desired with limited breakfast options. Overall, a great value for the price, especially considering the breathtaking views.

The hotel offers stunning balcony views and lovely verandas, yet the kitchen on top could be better organized. The ceramics in the rooms add a nice touch to the design. The service staff, from the front desk to the maids, go above and beyond to ensure a memorable stay, but the paid shuttle service might not be the best value for money. The location is superb, directly at the waterfront with access to a private terrace, making it a great spot for a swim in the sea. The dining experience, with an epic view, is exceptional with fresh meats available. Overall, a unique place with beautiful views and excellent service.

The hotel offers a mix of spectacular views and a relaxing atmosphere. The rooms are beautifully designed with ceramics, some featuring a huge terrace in the Villa. The service is top-notch, from the attentive breakfast staff to the helpful reception desk. The location is perfect for exploring Positano, near the beach with easy access to sunbeds. Dining with epic views adds to the overall experience, though the Colombian coffee is a highlight. Some may find the facilities slightly lacking, but the value for money is worth it.

This hotel is a hidden gem with breathtaking views from the terrace! The rooms are cozy, and the amazing view from the terrace is truly a highlight.
