My husband and I currently live outside of Naples and we have made many short visits to the Amalfi Coast towns, which are all wonderful. This trip, we were looking for a nice, convenient and reasonably priced hotel that was accessible to the Trail of the Gods (Sentiero Degli Dei, I believe it's called in Italian). Our main focus for the one-night visit was hiking the trail and exploring an area outside of the crowded, highly touristed towns. This Villa is actually in the town of Nocelle which is a 20 minute drive on a narrow road that goes above the main center of Positano. The apartment room was lovely. Clean. Comfortable bed. Large bathroom. Incredible views. Nocelle is a tranquil and serene little town. We enjoyed the chance to mingle with the locals in this small, quiet town. The Tratoria Santa Croce in Nocelle (1 minute walk from the hotel) also had some of the best food we've eaten for the right price. If you desire a hotel where you can walk out your door and be in the center of Positano - this is not the place for you. There is a bus that runs every 1 or 2 hours from Nocelle to Positano center during summer. If you want to visit a small, Amalfi Coast town (Nocelle) in a relaxing and tranquil environment with easy access to a great hiking trail and public transportation to the popular town of Positano - this is the place for you. It all depends on what you're looking for and this Villa suited us perfectly. My husband and I will definitely visit again.
