We loved this house. It was spotless and absolutely beautiful. We did not have very clear directions about where to meet Maria, which seemed to put us on the wrong foot, so we didn't experience Maria's hospitality the way others described. But we still had a fantastic time and would recommend this home for its location and beauty.

This house is in a remarkable position on the coast. Many places along the coast lose the sun early in the day when the location is in a fjord or around a bend in the coastline, but this house is positioned for sun all day. It's a very easy walk to the main road and the little beach village of Marina di Praia is fantastic. It has everything you need except a grocery store. (Even so, the local grocery will deliver to you for free.) The sheets are a little scratchy. For the price of the place I do wish the owner would upgrade sheets, fix some broken floor tiles, and fix the sun loungers to make the stay more luxurious. Even so -- these are minor issues to contend with considering the remarkable view you will enjoy during your stay. Don't miss Bar Mare/Petit Reataurant Donna Clelia at the beach. It's the best. And don't fail to walk south on the main road until you reach Furore. It's the location of a big diving championship each year and you will see crazy jumpers leaping into this secret beach which is nestled in a tiny fjord. It's awesome. Best boat hire for half or full day trips is La Sabilla. Ask for Andrea as your boat driver. Ask to go to Li Galli to anchor and swim. A gorgeous and legendary place to hang out and swim. If you run out of wine and don't want to hike to the grocery (Tutto per Tutti) there is a little beach bodega at La Conchiglia where you can buy wine, coffee, water, cornetti, and ice cream. Last tip: don't waste too much time and life energy taking busses between towns. Splurge a little and just take water taxis to Amalfi and Positano. Easier, faster, scenic views, and just a chic way to arrive at either town.

Maria was excellent in arranging the check-in process. She was very friendly and helpful in providing information about restaurants, shops, and sites in the area. The apartment was amazing and very spacious. There are few memories better than having an evening cocktail on that veranda watching the sunset; just a beautiful setting!

Maria was responsive upon our initial inquiry & throughout the booking process. Upon arriving in Praiano, the owner, Paolo met us, helped us with luggage to the house, gave helpful information for a driver, grocery store, restaurants, etc! The house is lovely & was perfect for the 4 adults & 2 small children. Photos of the house represent it well! Praiano is a lovely town, and a short and beautiful drive to Positano, Amalfi or Ravello.

The lovely Villa Positano was just as I had hoped for this part of our Italian holiday. Stunning views, beautiful decor and a nice location. It was the perfect place for our 9-person family to vacation in Positano. It has 4 beautiful bedrooms, 4 baths, 2 kitchens and a spacious sitting area. Locating the house and parking was a bit challenging but only took a quick call to Maria. She was so kind, friendly and helpful, giving us lots of good information about the area and even going so far as to making a reservation at a local restaurant, whose staff came to pick us up. Maria could not have been nicer. Nicola, the owner, was also there to greet us. He was so gracious and hospitable and enjoyed hearing about our Italian relatives from Abruzzo. They both made us feel right at home. There was an issue with the air conditioning the first day we arrived which made for a warm evening, but was fixed by the second day. It is about a 10-minute walk down narrow roads to town which could make one nervous, but was easily adjusted to. Positano is a beautiful place to relax, enjoy family and the beautiful Amalfi Coast. I would highly recommend Villa Positano to anyone visiting this incredible part of Italy.

The house had an amazing view. The two rooms and one sofa bed were perfect for us. We were able to walk down to the mini market, buy produce and cook breakfast each day. The terrace was amazing. We are there every chance we had for meals.

Beautiful apartment, impeccable and very clean. Modern amenities and very professional hosts. Better than any 5 star hotel! I highly recommend renting this house.
