It was complete serenity. Great bars and resteraunts and hostess
Pros:

Beautiful location. Rosie was the perfect hostess and met us on the beach as we approached the building. Our Limo driver was very helpful in arranging to have our luggage carried by a mini truck from the street (up the hill), to our hotel room. This would have been a struggle to accomplish on our own.

Cons:

I was not aware that the luggage transport would be a problem, but it was.

Charm 10/10
Cleanliness 10/10
You don't get all the amenities you would in a standard hotel, but we knew that when we booked, and we were great with it. It's like a hybrid between a hotel and an air bnb. You get fresh towels and friendly staff, but no restaurant or bar. Highly recommend.

Cons:

I would have loved bigger fluffier pillows, but we were so tired returning every night that we passed out without an issue.

Ótimo
Pros:

A localização é incrível, ficamos com um apartamento com terraço com vista e acesso direto à praia!

Cons:

O apartamento em si é bastante simples para o valor por noite, a cozinha está pouco equipada mas para nós que só estivemos uma noite foi suficiente.

Ein Glücksgriff
Pros:

Wir hatten ein total schönes, komfortables, authentisches und gepflegtes Zimmer mit Balkon und Meerblick und seitlichem Blick auf Positano. Mehr geht nicht!
Die Begrüßung und Verabschiedung war herzlich. Uns hat es an nichts gefehlt und wir wären gerne länger geblieben!

Pros:

I liked the fact the hotel was family run and in the hills, quiet with an amazing view. The view was amazing and felt very Italian.

Cons:

Transport from Amalfi

We met Rosa, kind to us. We would book this place again. Perfect location.
Pros:

Perfect location along the beach. The view from our balcony.

Cons:

It was a little difficult to find reception desk. They really don’t have one. So when facing building you go left to a walk way. Up some steps and into a back door. A wall rock is in the left.

Great time in La Caravella di Positano!
Pros:

La Caravella di Positano was very near the beach ja the harber. It was easy to travel with ferries. We had own sunbeds and it was easy to go swimming. There are several good restaurants nearby. An no cars - lovely!!
The room was clean ja quiet. The balcony was amasing! You can see the sea in front of you. The staff was very friendly, especially Rosa🌷.

Cons:

First we didn’t find the reseption. It was on tha back.
