    How fitting it was when I got to stay here for a few days during my cousin's writer's workshop back…read morein March. I love how they continue to support writers. This was the workshop's 15th year. John Steinbeck once stayed here and wrote, "Positano bites deep. It is a dream place that isn't quite real when you are there and becomes beckoningly real after you have gone." It really is a breathtaking, magical city that I was fortunate to visit. What makes it even more amazing is that it is owned by the Sersale family from Naples who have opened up their summer vacation home and turned it into a lovely hotel in 1951. They had purchased the adjacent building next door to expand. This hotel was also once a US Army rest resort. It is still a family operated hotel with some staff. Antonio, the co-owner and general manager was at the writer's workshop dinner, and his wife Carla does the gardening throughout and designs for the Emporio Sirenuse boutique store across the street. Famous celebrities like Reese Witherspoon and Kylie Jenner have also stayed here. The rooms are a good size. We had a marble bathroom with huge bathtub and a small patio seating that had wooden lattice windows that opened to the pool/terrace overlooking the beach. I'm shocked about a Dyson hair dryer in its own box. The turn down service was so great. They laid out my sleep clothes, a small towel on the floor near the bed, slippers, a Baci chocolate (my fave), bottled water, turned down the lights and put music on the TV, and gave a card with the weather report for the next day. It was helpful! Positano was chilly and sometimes rainy mid March. Antonio, not the co-owner though same first name, was at the front and greeted us when we transferred from our AirBNB. He was the sweetest and helpful when I inquired about a tour to Pompeii and Mt. Vesuvius. Even when I left before the writer's workshop ended, he said I should stay. I really wished I could! I had already taken 3 days post spring break from work since I had been to Germany and was headed to London before going home. The spa was open to the writers and their +1s. After hiking Mt. Vesuvius, I got to sit and relax my muscles in the sauna, ice room, and did 2 dips in the cold plunge pool. The snacks and tea were great. I loved that there was a shower with Aveda products. The gym was also on the same floor. La Sponda restaurant at the hotel terrace area is a Michelin star. They're usually open for dinner, but they were closed because it was still considered winter and not open until the end of March or beginning April during peak season. We were fortunate to enjoy a cocktail hour prior to dinner at La Sponda specifically for the writer's workshop. They also served a buffet breakfast plus a la carte entrees for 2 days. I missed one day since I had my tour of Pompeii and Mt. Vesuvius in Naples and left early am before breakfast. I did take advantage the second day! Btw, you can also order in room service. I loved everything at Le Sirenuse from all the plants and flowers to the detailed decor, epic views, delicious food and friendly staff. This was a once in a lifetime experience I will never forget.

The pool vibe here is unlike any other hotel pool in the world. Ultra luxe. Ladies wear all your good stuff here, this is the place to be seen. I practically cry when we check out, it's hard to leave

    A cute hidden gem while walking down the steps. We came here in a Sunday for a happy hour type…read moreexperience. Beautiful seating area. Good service as well. Very fun places to go.

    My wife and I chose Hotel Casa Albertina for our honeymoon, and for most of our stay, it was…read morelovely. It's a charming boutique hotel with stunning, unbelievable views from the balcony of our room (though note, balcony privacy is limited). We were fully prepared to give a 5-star review. However, a disturbing incident on our final night completely changed our perspective and revealed a shocking lack of duty of care from the management. While returning to the hotel via the steep, dark alleyway approach (approx. 50 steps), we found two young women in clear distress. One was nearly unconscious--limp, unable to speak, with dilated eyes--while her friend, who seemed only slightly intoxicated, was struggling to help her. The friend stated they had just been drinking at the Hotel Casa Albertina rooftop bar. As my wife is a nurse, we immediately stopped to assist. Concerned for their safety on the dark steps, we made the logical decision to help the incapacitated woman back up to the hotel lobby, the very establishment that had served them, so she could sober up safely and we could arrange a secure ride home. The receptionist's reaction was appalling. He was immediately hostile, refused help, and demanded we remove her from the premises. We were not accusing anyone of anything; we were simply trying to ensure a patron's safety. The hotel's defensive and aggressive stance was telling and deeply unsettling. I ultimately had to carry this young woman down all 50 steps myself to get her and her friend into a taxi (we confirmed they got home safely). The most unbelievable part was the manager confronting and yelling at us during checkout the next morning, reiterating that we were "wrong" to bring her to the lobby. The complete lack of concern for a customer's well-being is unacceptable. I cannot stress this enough: I would caution anyone, especially women traveling alone or in small groups, to be extremely aware of their surroundings and seriously reconsider patronizing this hotel's rooftop bar. The management's priority is clearly avoiding liability over ensuring patron safety. Their vicious reaction to our good-faith attempt to help was appalling and ruined our honeymoon's final impression. In good conscience, I cannot recommend this hotel or its bar to anyone. The view is not worth the risk.

    We loved our stay here. Due to late flights, we arrived around 9:30pm and we were quickly assigned…read moreour rooms. The gentleman working the front desk, quickly made a dinner reservation for us at the Mediterranean right down the block so we could eat before the kitchen closed at 10pm. We left our luggage with him to bring to our rooms and we were off to eat after a very long day of travel. Our room had a jacuzzi tub on the patio with an outstanding view. I sat many mornings at our patio table and enjoyed reading my book. Our room was spacious with a wall of closets and a large dresser. It also had a couch, coffee table and tv but we never turned on the TV. Breakfast was served on the fourth floor. Be sure to chat with 'Stix' as he has lots of stories and he makes a great cappuccino. It was raining for 3 of the days we were there so we ate on the covered side of the patio. On the fourth day, it was gloriously sunny so we sat in the open air and enjoyed a spectacular view. Our room was clean. Maid service was good. The staff was amazing. I really liked this place because it was a bit off the beaten path so it was quieter but still easy to get to shops and the port. Great experience.

    Punta Regina is the hidden gem of Positano and out of 6 hotels/ cities we visited during the 2 week…read moretrip in Italy, Punta Regina was hands down my favorite. Let me explain further: 1. Their Service - Exceptional service that went above and beyond just "great service". The things they did for my wife and I. The interactions we had every time, with anyone there - they always made you feel at home or welcome. Beats many of the 5 star hotels I've stayed at in both the US and other countries around the world. You'll receive world class service from them and nothing less. 2. Location - amazing location with an infinity pool overlooking Positano. You can walk down to the beach two different ways (stairs are steeper but faster) or through the main road down. When you want to escape the crowds, you make your way back up and enjoy, not only the serenity of less people, but the higher viewpoints of Positano. That said, it's worth noting that my wife and I are in our early 30's and we're pretty fit - although, outside the gym I hate walking. My parents have stayed at Le Sirenuse and I know they wouldn't have enjoyed the stairs route at Punta Regina for what it's worth (60 yrs old+). But it's typically younger adults who stay here and if that's the case for you, it's a piece of cake and once again, this is coming from someone who hates walking. 3. Price - their prices are super competitive. We stayed in Punta Caterina and were a little worried that it wouldn't be as nice since it wasn't connected to the main hotel/ pool/ breakfast area. That didn't matter. It was so close on the same street it was negligible and we got to still book the suite at a solid price with our own private balcony overlooking an unobstructed and breathtaking Positano ocean view. Admittedly, we did use that balcony a lot for laundry as well since it was so big, but I digress! Ultimately, we LOVED our stay with the Punta Regina family. We got to write in their book they keep at the front desk too. Everyone there is so nice and I follow Punta Regina on Instagram where it always makes my day when I see them post. It takes me back to some of our fondest memories in Italy and we can't wait to go back again one day!

    Walked in on Housekeeper Going Through Our Things…read more We stayed two nights. On the second night around 7 PM, we returned to our room and caught a woman--who identified herself as housekeeping--going through our luggage and personal items. The room had already been cleaned that morning, and she had no cart or cleaning supplies. We reported it to the front desk immediately. Their response? "But was there anything missing?"--completely dismissing that someone was in our room uninvited and actively searching through our belongings. This experience left us feeling extremely unsafe. No apology. No accountability. We would not stay here again.

There are many shops and restaurant close-by. 4 star. * Motif: simple chic. 4 star. * Service: excellent. Front desk is very friendly. Restaurant staff is professionally. 4 star. It is a solid 4 star. We stayed here for one night while visiting Positano. This hotel is listed as 3 star hotel. There is no room service or spa. However, they do have dinning room serving breakfast. Guest room is spacious, simple chic decor, with spacious and modern bathroom. View from room is pretty nice of the ocean and the town. There is a small elevator to bring your luggage to room. They do not provide assistance with luggage... so, you will need to carry your own luggage. Parking is privately owned. You can book parking through the hotel for $30 per day. It is approximately 2 minute walk to hotel. There is a small convenient stores 2-3 minutes walk from hotel. They have everything you need from medications to food. Breakfast is decent with basic food items but fresh. You can request different cooked eggs from the servers but they will not offer automatically. I would stay here again if visiting Positano.

Anything we asked of the front desk staff was brought to us in a snap. From making dinner and car reservations to promptly delivering laundry and steam-pressing our clothes in a blink of an eye. We rented about 4 rooms and one of the suites for us and our families and was able to experience several different room types and views. If you don't like your view on the lower floors, ask to move. But we highly recommend staying on the higher floors as a few of the lower floor rooms don't have a view. The coffee and breakfast they bring you in the morning is delicious! The croissants and muffins are so tasty, and the mushroom omelettes are very good as well. Highly impressed overall.
