Hotel berhampiran Nocelle, Positano

Seven of us from Canada thought this B and B was fantastic, amazing view, the grounds are well groomed. Our hosts Ana and Felix were so awesome, friendly, provided great service and very helpful. There were lots of great options for breakfast. The rooms were great, they have a mini bars, a nice little sitting area in front of the rooms that provided a beautiful view of the ocean, also, a sitting area where you can buy drinks at their bar. It was just a short walk into the main area where there was lots of shopping and restaurants. I would highly recommend this B and B for your next vacation stay.

This was one of our nicest surprises on our trip through Italy. We were apprehensive, at first, because we usually prefer to stay at hotels which offer full service (pool, concierge, front desk staff, etc.) vs. air bnb or bed and breakfast type places. However, once we saw pictures of the views this place had ... we decided to book ... and it was a fantastic decision! Mauro, who is the property manager, and all-around great person answered all of our emails promptly with questions and made great restaurant recommendations during our stay. He was on property to warming greet us, help us to park (believe me ... parking in Positano is impossible ... so the fact that it was possible to rent a parking spot on property along with the room was a HUGE convenience!) and check us in. The cleaning woman came every day and was so sweet. We arrived a little early before our 3 p.m. check-in time and he allowed us to come into the room a bit early, which was very nice as it allowed us to change clothes. He showed us the room and gave us the keys and instructions on how to open the door after hours, when there is no staff. We had no problems coming, or going, during our stay. The cleaning woman came every day and was so sweet. Our little apartment was spotless when we came back from the city. Our suite was the Palazzo Suite, which was pretty huge ... 750 square feet, or so, with a large kitchen, a bedroom and changing area, a small alcove with a washing machine (no drying machine ... only a rack) and a wonderfully big bathroom. The star of the show was the GIANT patio with panoramic views of the mountains and the city. Sadly, it rained for most of the time we were in Positano ... but thankfully our suite had a canvas cover, which allowed us to admire the view, even during a rain storm! A few of the other suites had balconies with an open sky ... but during the rain, they were unable to use the balcony like we did ... so we made a good choice of room! Of course the furniture was a little old and worn ... but the bed was comfortable and honestly, we spent very few minutes in the room. If you are looking for a 5 star hotel-style, picture-perfect room, this isn't it. However, Le Sirinuse and Villa TreVelle rooms with this view would cost 2 or 3 times the price. So, we were beyond happy with the value of the room and were very comfortable in it during our entire stay. The hardest part of the room was to motivate ourselves to go into town because the view from the huge terrace was so amazing that we did not want to leave. You must be in very good shape in order to fully enjoy the location in Positano. There are a LOT of steep stairs to climb up and down to get into the city ... and I don't know if I have been in a city quite as crowded as Positano, even early into the summer. Climbing back up to the hotel each night was quite a process, even for a fit person ... however, anywhere in Positano with a nice view requires this. You could hire a taxi, or uber, to pick

We loved everything about our stay at Il Gabbiano! We were there for 4 nights had the most wonderful time. The hotel is very clean, all of the staff were warm and welcoming, the room was beautiful, and a delicious breakfast on the balcony every morning was a nice treat. The view and balcony were amazing, the location was perfect (about a 15 minute walk to the beach, with a lot of great restaurants even closer), and the lobby had a nice seating area overlooking the coast- a great spot for a cappuccino or glass of wine/snacks. This was our first time in Positano and the we were so impressed with the hotel and the staff- we will definitely be back and will stay there again!

Amazing accommodation. Beautiful friendly staff. Great food in restaurant & great breakfast. Rooms big clean & comfortable. Great water pressure in shower. The sea view rooms with balcony are spectacular and extra special at night. Bus stop right outside which takes you all the way down to town centre & then 5 min walk to beach & you take bus back up from same spot dropped you off all for $1.60 euros each way. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND & DEFINITELY GOING BACK!!
