Positano's Dolce Vita

  3. The vicinity to the Spiaggia Grande beach
Address
Via Rampa Teglia, 4 - Positano

Dating back to the early 1900's, Buca di Bacco is one of the oldest establishments in Positano. When Buca di Bacco first opened its doors to visitors travelling along the Amalfi Coast, it was in the form of simple tavern in which to enjoy delicious local food and wine.

A favourite port of call for the intellectuals and artists who "discovered" Positano at the start of the 20th century, over the decades Buca di Bacco was gradually enlarged so as to provide not only excellent food but charming accommodation too.

Antique writing desks, sweeping drapes, floors laid with the colorful, hand-painted majolica tiles from Vietri, bathrooms in precious marble and glorious sun-kissed terraces: Hotel Buca di Bacco's rooms recall the classic Mediterranean elegance of the area's most luxurious coastal villas, combined with the technology and services of a Grand Hotel.

The food prepared by Anna (ably assisted by her niece, Carla) is just as delicious as that once prepared by her grandparents: traditional dishes, made with only the very freshest, locally sourced ingredients, to be accompanied by a glass or two of Bacchus's favourite beverage. Entertaining, hands-on cooking lessons are available, on request.

a literal stain on Positano

This hotel is a scam. Don't fall for the reviews -there is a reason there is always vacancy. The hotel is chopped into pieces- to get to your room you have to walk through back alleyways and enter not from where the desk is- there is no security. Our bed had stained sheets and bugs in the room, dirty soap dish etc- the hotel doesn't care- once they have your money they won't even let you speak to a manager -the front desk tried to extort us for more money when we asked to see a different room- they said we could pay for a room before seeing it. Almost ruined my love of Positano. We checked out and had to pay triple rates in the high season just to get out of this situation. We never got any sort of refund in fact we were double charged for one room and had to file a credit card chargeback when the hotel wouldn't correct the mistake. Have stayed in 3 other hotels in Positano and they understand that tourism is everything and are kind.

Amazing hotel!!!!!! if I could give it more than a 10 I would the food was amazing. The people/staff were incredible and the hotel is directly on the beach. You can’t get better than that. The view was out of this world. I will definitely be returning.

My stay in Buca di Bacco was very nice, great food at the restaurant, the views from the balcony were amazing and service was great but what really made my stay here special and unforgettable was the front seat service given by Rosita. She was helpful, knowledgeable, hospitable and always attentive. She helped me whenever I needed anything, I felt like I was really being taken care of. I would go back to this hotel and see Rosita again. Can’t wait to go back ❤️

We had a wonderful time at the hotel, I now have mobility issues but this was not a problem for them. Beautiful scenery, wonderful staff. This is our fourth time at the hotel. Waking up to those wonderful views in the morning and the sound of the sea is amazing.
