The absolute best in Positano! We just wrapped up our second stay at Hotel Villa delle Palme in Positano, and it was absolutely wonderful! The staff was excellent, and our rooms were very clean, making our time there once again so comfortable. The restaurants again were fantastic, with delicious food full of authentic Italian flavors, and the staff was always attentive and friendly. Thank you, Hotel Villa delle Palme, for making our family vacation memorable once again in beautiful Positano! We can’t wait to come back again soon!

We highly recommend this lovely family run hotel. Our room with a large terrace was spacious and clean. Bed linen and towels of a good quality. The breakfast was excellent. The staff are SO welcoming and extremely helpful. The location was great, being a pleasant walk up and down to the main beach, with many restaurants and shops. We hope to return soon!
