Le Sirenuse | Positano | Italy

In the heart of Positano, Le Sirenuse is undoubtedly the finest place to be.  The former summer house of the Sersale family (who still own and run it), this uniquely luxurious hotel with superb service and magical views over the terracotta rooftops out to sea has it all.

Perfect for… honeymooners and romantics looking for a weekend getaway or as a perfect combination with Ravello and Capri.

Where… rising up the steep slopes along the Amalfi Coast, Positano is a picturesque town, a jumble of pretty white and honey-coloured houses situated between Sorrento and Salerno, south of Naples.

And the rooms… 63 rooms and suites, most have private terrace or balcony overlooking the sea, all with white washed walls, hand-made floor tiles, spacious marble bathrooms with a Jacuzzi bath tub and clever mix of antique pieces collected by the Sersale family and elegant furnishing

Food & facilities… lit entirely by candles, the atmospheric ‘La Sponda’ restaurant, offers delicious Neapolitan dishes. Oysters and champagne can be indulged at the Champagne and Oyster bar with lounge music under the stars. Outside, a heated pool and Pool bar provides the perfect place to  Aveda concept spa with a small gym and lots of indoor sitting areas treasured with old master paintings. Pretty outdoor terraces with fabulous views complete the picture.

Activities… wander through the winding, cobbled streets of Positano exploring the many boutique shops and restaurants.  In the early evening, the glorious sunsets are best enjoyed drinking champagne on the hotel’s beautiful vintage speed boat or try complimentary day excursions on the hotel’s wooden fishing boat Sant’ Antonio.  Capri is only a short hop away, perfect for a day trip or for  book a private tour of Pompeii.

In the know… head to Le Sirenuse in September when the summer crowds have left Positano.
