For my 800th review I'm reviewing the most beautiful location on the Amalfi Coast, Spiaggia…read moreGrande. This beautiful beach is located in the cliffside village of Positano in southern Italy. The best way to visit here is to take a ferry from nearby cities such as Naples, Sorrento, Amalfi, etc. Otherwise you'll spend close to 1.5 hours driving through some winding and hairpin turns from the nearest airport in Naples. The beach is located about 250 ft. below the closest road that allows cars, so expect to do a lot of hiking as you navigate your way through the tiny pedestrian only streets visiting shops, restaurants, and cafes. Parking is impossible here! Most of the beach here is private, so expect to spend 25 euros to rent a tiny sunbed packed in tightly next to some stranger. The small portion of the beach that is public is filled tightly with tourists marking their spot with a beach towel. The beach itself has tiny pebbles, so be sure to wear water shoes. During the day this place is packed with day trippers visiting. HOWEVER, from the early evening till mid morning you will have the place to yourself and enjoy this natural beauty. I highly recommend renting a boat on the pier and taking it out for a few hours to enjoy the blue waters and gorgeous views. That's the best way to experience this place! Overall I was really impressed the with the beauty of Positano. Such a fun place to visit with gorgeous views, great weather and beautiful crystal clear blue waters. Expect to pay high prices for restaurants and hotels here and dealing with crowds during the day. I definitely can see why the Amalfi Coast is one of the most beautiful places to visit on the planet!

Well for us Indians (this is the shooting location of song Ghungroo from movie War). It is the main…read morebeach of Positano, as well as the center for many of the activities of this cute city Positano. It is located down past the restaurants and public part of the beach and easy to spot by the rows of yellow and orange striped umbrellas. Such picturesque surroundings, it is great to relax, stroll and take some great pictures. You can swim as well as long as you were some kind of footwear as it is very pebbly. Beach is full of restaurants, local art shops, Gelatos and many more. Almost all the beach is private except the tiny part which they say 'public beach'. The view of Positano city with Dome is magnificent. And yes it is always full of tourists.

This was the best use of 20 euro that I spent during my two week trip to Italy…read more Bagni d' Arienzo is an absolutely gorgeous private beach club. It's less crowded and more secluded than the main beach club in Positano. We happened to be staying across the road which was lucky. If not, the beach club actually has a boat that will ferry you over from the main Positano area. The space isn't huge, so be sure to make a reservation in advance. In addition to reserving a chair you can also reserve a time slot to have lunch at the restaurant. 20 euro gets you a chair with a sun shade, a towel and an umbrella. We got there early and had first pick at a seat. If you can, I suggest doing the same. It was really nice to have views of the ocean (instead of another chair) in front of us. But honestly, the beach is so beautiful that there really isn't a bad seat anywhere. A chair also includes waitress service. There is an extensive drink menu with tons of cocktails, spritzes, wines, beers, frozen drinks and smoothies. Prices are very reasonable for a beach club -- cocktails are around 10 and bottles of wine 20. We weren't expecting much for lunch but the restaurant was actually phenomenal. The grilled octopus came with a huge portion and was super fresh. The ravioli pomodoro was perfectly al dente and stuffed with a delicious ricotta cheese. The grilled eggplant was simple and cooked in flavorful olive oil. Lunch was also fairly priced, and service was fast. The seats also overlook the water, so it's a beautiful and relaxing dining setting. Two people can walk away after a full day of fun and sun, eat and drink well, and spend not much over 100 euro. I strongly suggest making sure that your Positano itinerary includes a day to spend relaxing at Bagni. You won't regret it.

It was a decent walk down a path to get to the inlet and you have to walk down a pretty steep set of stairs to get down to the water but boy is it worth it! I'd recommend water shoes as the rocks are slick. You can swim around or lounge on rocks. There were probably about a dozen people while we were there in April. There's lots of nearby walking paths full of wildflowers and some ruins. I could have packed a lunch and spent all day here and in the surrounding hiking spots. Beautiful views of Mt Vesuvius across the water.

What a way to see Capri! We were originally planning on travelling to the island by taking a public…read morebus to Sorrento and then hoping on the ferry. Someone had mentioned they were able to take a private boat, and wow am I happy they did! We were picked up at a cove right near where we were staying in Praiano. The boat was in great condition and held about 15 of us comfortably, with space to sit in the back and the front. Our captain, Tony, was such a delight and spoke wonderful English, so he was able to point out so many sights along the way and really gave us the full experience! We got to see all the gorgeous rocks and cliff sides up close, and Tony even drove the boat into some of the caves so we could take the peek! The ride to Capri was about 45 minutes, but we did take our time and sightsee. Tony picked us up in the same spot 4 hours later for the ride back. This time, he even offered to let us swim by some of the rocks and caves! We stayed near the coast on the ride by and got to see all the cities from the water like Sorrento and Positano. We were able to see private beaches and stunning waterfront villas as well! Absolutely recommend visiting Capi this way, or really any city along the Amalfi Coast! My mom, who was experiencing motion sickness on the windy roads, was surprisingly totally fine traveling by boat!

I can't recommend this company enough! They made it so easy to visit the surrounding areas of…read morePraiano on the Amalfi Coast. They are super responsive on WhatsApp. We had trouble finding a taxi to return to the dock on our day trip to Capri, and the staff at La Sibilla got in contact with our boat driver so that he was aware we were running late. They are extremely helpful and are reasonably priced. We had such a great experience on our tour to Capri that we actually booked them again for a water taxi to visit Positano. Their drivers are responsible, kind, and have a great sense of humor! This company really added so much pleasure and ease to our Amalfi Coast/Praiano vacation!

DO NOT EAT HERE! If I could give this place zero stars I would…read more My spouse and I walked by and it looked like a lovely place to have a beer and maybe have lunch. The server asked if it was for drinks or food, not fully having decided we said drinks and food. We sat down and everything was great, we ordered their piazza Bianca a bottle of sparkling water and a beer. Everything was great, until the server asked us if we wanted to order meals. We had looked at the menu and decided that we would have a few drinks and nothing else. The server was upset, he told us we each had to order one meal. And accused us of trying to get free bread and olive oil. He said if I would have known you were only getting drinks I would have told you we are closed! He insisted we must order meals or his manager would be upset. I asked to speak to the manager, as we where not going to eat anything else on the menu. The server kept insisting we order, that we where being rude by not ordering food. I apologized and said we were not hungry and that we would be happy to pay for the bread and olive oil. We told him we where not trying to get anything free, and happy to pay for anything we ate and drank. The manager was never called to our table and we were given the check after much argument from the server. It was the worst experience I have had in a restaurant while traveling abroad. Please, save yourself and argument and the headache. DO NOT STOP HERE!
