Our bedroom in the “Romantic Room”.
The little desk (and complimentary champagne!) and the door leading to the bathroom and “closet”.
Our room came complete with a chic plaster arched balcony that offered perfect sunset views.
One of the many palm lined terraces and the view of Positano.
There were numerous places to sit and take in the views.
Hand-blown glass artworks on display.
Lunch!
The way down (and then up again) must have 50 flights of stone stairs, but it’s a super pretty cliff to climb.
The beach below Casa Angelina, guests are given access and complimentary towels and beach chairs.
We took a water taxi to Positano and lost count of all the super yachts along the way.
Highs & Lows
-
Furniture is sophisticated, modern. There are lots of white linen and light woods, a soothing and serene atmosphere.
-
Great service and very attentive. They really went out of their way to help us get a boat to Capri.
-
The room had such a nice balcony with incredible views.
-
Food was really excellent (be it the lunch or brunch) and both were delivered with style.
-
Room and bathroom were both small (but well appointed).
Important Bits
-
Type
Seasonal Boutique Hotel
-
Vibe
Like the home of a rich Miami art collector circa 1988. Think Calla lillies, grand piano, avant garde vases and lots of white linen. There is a lot of art by a local glass artist which may not be for everyone (it’s not our style) but we appreciated the gallery-like way in which they displayed it.
-
Location
Cliffside, slightly outside of Positano with spectacular panoramic views from every room. Easy access to the "city" - they even offer a complimentary shuttle and valet parking.
-
Rooms
43 in total. 39 guests rooms and suites in the main building plus 4 rooms on the beach level.
-
Music
No music except at the beach and the beach has a DJ who definitely tries to keep it hi-NRG (this is probably what Ibiza is like??)
-
Year Opened
June 2005
-
Designed By
Interior design by Marco De Luca, renovation by Gennaro Fusco and Francesco Savarese Architects.
-
Health & Wellness
Indoor *and* outdoor pool (with a great view!), sauna, and spa with personal trainer, yoga and Pilates classes. The hotel is also steps to the ocean with tons of chic beach chairs and cocktails.
-
Restaurant
Yes, and the food is DELICIOUS!
-
Bar
Yes, a bit less “bar-like” since it’s part of a larger seating area. Probably better to just have cocktails on the patio overlooking the ocean. It’s not much in terms of a “scene” - the hotel is quiet and relaxing.
-
Minibar
Champagne, nice juice options, interesting cookies and chocolate.
-
Children
No way, there is a lot of breakable glass art and this hotel seems way too “adult” for little people.
