Palazzo Margherita

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

Recently stayed for 4 nights at Palazzo Margherita and accommodation was fabulous. Italian styled decor, clean, spacious and very well equipped. Location was fabulous and the views unbeatable. Approx 10 minute walk down the hill to village via the road not the stairs. Mauro was a fabulous host, so efficient, friendly and accommodating, nothing is too much trouble. Would highly recommend and would love to go back to Positano.

Amazing stay, which was made perfect thanks to Mauro in the reception, He is fantastic and very accommodating. We stayed there for 1 week and our family and friends rented out some other apartments in the same complex. thanks Pat

We booked at Palazzo Margherita about 10 months before they were taken for the summer.......and so glad we did. There were 5 of us (my wife, me, daughter, her husband, and our granddaughter) and we were booked in the Galli apartment. The booking went very well and we received word immediately from Mauro about our stay. Prior to arriving, if we had questions for Mauro, our emails were answered within a day. He's very good at getting back to you with a response. If you have a car (which we did) you will need to book a spot ASAP before the spots very close to the apartment get occupied. Our stay was absolutely remarkable! The apartment had plenty of room for all of us. We had two bedrooms and our granddaughter slept on the pulled out couch. Kitchen has most of everything you need. Even a small washing machine to wash clothes and then hang on a drying rack is there, which was helpful to us. To wake up each morning and have coffee on the balcony overlooking the water and coast is just plain breathtaking! I would sit every morning just enjoying the beauty of the Amalfi Coast!! There is a small grocery store about 50 yards from the apartment which has most of anything you need, just be careful walking....the roads are very curvy and the drivers have no fear. Also, a vegetable/fruit stand is another 30-40 yards past that with some very fresh products for sale. The walk to the beach below is a trek. Lots of stairs to go down and then climb up. Its a pretty treacherous climb but my wife and I were able to do it no more than twice a day (we're both in our mid-60's). Prior to us arriving, we did book with Mauro a full day boat trip to Capri.......if you have the opportunity to do this, DO IT! It was the best part of our stay there! Mauro will take care of everything for you. It was just the five of us and Hermes (the Captain) and the trip lasted the entire day. Of course, being clear, sunny, 85 degrees, on a boat 8 hours with drinks and snacks (supplied by the Captain) sure helped make it a memorable day!! The scenery and Capri will take your breath away! We did not spend any time on the beach but there were many people there enjoying it. The restaurants and stores were very typical touristy places, pricey for the most part, but the food was pretty good. Lots of people in early June so expect the crowds. In summary, I would book again in a blink at the Palazzo Margherita. Loved the apartment, loved the views from the apartment, loved the food in the restaurants, loved the boat ride, and Mauro took good care of us. Thanks to Mauro and Palazzo Margherita for making us happy and leaving us with such great memories of Positano!!

This resort is beyond beautiful we had the Sponda room the pictures cannot give this room justice! This was the first hotel in Positano Mauro the care taker is amazing very helpful before and during our stay! There is a full kitchen we had so much fun just staying in and cooking getting amazing fresh items from the market down the road. The walk to the main area not far. If you want the million dollar view for your Instagram and Facebook likes you will not be disappointed when you see the photos you will understand what I am talking about!❤️

The hotel engages in a practice to retain deposits. WE made a booking error which was recognized within 10 minutes of booking through ***********. The hotel REFUSES to refund the reservation and will not allow changes. This is disgusting business practice and I would AVOID this hotel due to their HORRIBLE customer service and business practices. I have been trying to resolve this for almost 1 month with zero response from the hotel.
