Hotel Pupetto Positano in Positano, open May–August.
Hotel Pupetto Positano occupies a 1960s-era structure originally built as a private residence on the cliffs of Positano, later converted into this intimate boutique hotel.
The property retains its original Mediterranean architecture while offering modern amenities and direct access to the Amalfi Coast's dramatic coastline.
With a 4.7/5 Google rating, it has become a sought-after venue for couples celebrating along Italy's most picturesque shore.
I would understand that the location of the hotel is most likely the best in Positano, if you like to combine a beach holiday with exploring the Amalfi coast. The Fornillo beach is not so crowded like the main beach and the hotel is directly located on the beach and still close to the ferry services and the city centre. The hotel staff was extra ordinarily friendly and helpful. The room was very clean, just the room furniture would need refurbishment. I am aware that we just were in a standard room and the bed was very good. But the atmosphere of the room itself was very cold. Replacing the old chairs and placing some pictures on the wall would help a lot to improve it.
