Loved, loved, loved it here!! We can’t say enough about this amazing property! From the staff, to the other guests, to the location, it was absolutely perfect! Our first time in Positano and Covo de Saraceni felt like home. We’d wake up early, tak a walk for cappuccino , a little shopping and then spend the afternoon at the pool. Brunella and Rosario were amazing, we miss them already! This is right at the dock for all boat trips, so if you’re doing any day trips it’s perfect. We didn’t hear any noise from our room or the pool, which we thought we would. I highly recommend staying here. We will definitely be back.

Stunning in Positano!

We had a wonderful experience at Covo. They were professional & polite…went above & beyond to make our holiday special. They even surprised our daughter at breakfast with a birthday cake…such a sweet thing to do. Loved the location also…steps from the ferry, close to shopping. Beautiful hotel in an amazing seaside town.

Lovely property, though a tad dated. It has an old world feel to it. Without exception the staff were kind, helpful and efficient. Breakfast was great. We are happy that we chose to be at the lower level of Positano and enjoyed the dining choices that were within easy walking range. We were there the first week in October and the buzz of activity as the ferries and boats pulled into the pier made it busy and noisy; so peak season maybe overwhelming.

This hotel is literally worth 50 dollars a night not 2300 a night! The customer service is horrible, they don’t have a coffee machine, no iron, or water! It’s very outdated! The breakfast has a small menu, it’s very outdated! - I regret spending a penny here! They don’t even care about their guests and they don’t care for the high price guests are paying to enjoy their stay! They over charge you for the luggage pickup and drop off!
