Anthony's Travel Tips for Positano

What are the best places to eat and drink in Positano?

La Scalinatella, located inside the Albergo Miramare Hotel, fine luxe dining, every meal had an explanation of its unique and powerful flavours, very nice experience. La Tagliata, located higher up the mountain, the restaurant organized us a shuttle-bus after booking the reservation. Family run, authentic italian food. There was no menu, they just kept bringing us food, plate by plate, 5+ courses, and endless wine. Cost us €60 a person and was WELL worth every cent.

Day trips from the ferry port and the main beach were all fun to do. For great photo opportunities, walk up the road that Franco’s Bar is on to find several jut-outs in the side walk with the town behind for a scenic photo.

What is the best tip for a romantic getaway in Positano?

Make reservations in advance for any places you want to be sure you get into. Franco’s Bar is great, but there will be a line to get in and sitting in the front row requires minimum purchase of $40 euro/person

Buca di Bacco was an amazing place to stay for a special anniversary. Extremely professional, and met everyone of our requests/needs before the trip and during the trip. Their location is ideal. I will definitely stay there again if I am lucky enough to return to Positano! Booking with Flytographer is also a good way to capture memories of special milestones!

Ohima restaurant for lunch/dinner, Delicatessen SNC for the BEST sandwiches in Positano, and of course Franco's bar for the vibe & views.

Arienzo beach club (book ahead!) for a day on a private beach; walking to Atrani from the Amalfi ferry dock for an afternoon of swimming and pasta at Le Arcate.

What is the best tip for going on your honeymoon to Positano?

Make dinner reservations! Most places are booked a day or two in advance during the busy season. If you're staying in Positano proper, expect it to get Disneyland-level busy from 9AM - 4PM each day as all of the Amalfi coast day-trippers flood the city. We enjoyed relaxing during the afternoons in our hotel, or exploring other cities to avoid the rush. Things calm back down in the evening and are always wonderful in the mornings.

What are the best places to eat and drink in Positano?

We visited Positano for the day as we stayed in Nerano (Villa Flory) and just enjoyed everything. Collina Bakery had the tastiest desserts, with the best whole lemon gelato! So incredibly yummy!

What are the best things to do in Positano?

Honestly, just being there was amazing and a bucket list experience. My favorite part was walking down from the cathedral and going onto the beach. My breath was taken away as I stood on the sand and slowly turned around and looked at the town’s beautiful colored cliff buildings. I was in complete awe. Everyone was so nice and welcoming I really didn’t want to leave.

What is the best tip for travelling with kids to Positano?

We have teenagers so giving them some time to explore on their own was something they loved. They also loved swimming at the beach. Renting chairs was worth it! I definitely recommend a private boat to tour Capri and the Amalfi coast. It’s well worth the cost. Being able to see things tailored to us and what we like was absolutely amazing. We were able to swim into the blue grotto as we arrived just as it closed! Spectacular!! So many memories made and our photos from Pierpaolo will be my most favorite souvenirs from our trip.
