Positano's Dolce Vita

  2. The delicious traditional local cuisine
  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.

Staying at this hotel made this trip! Location is perfect, the views are spectacular from the rooms, and the staff here were all amazing. Breakfast was delicious every morning and Kateryna was so sweet, telling us which pastries we must try. Will definitely be back here.

Frequento la Buca di Bacco da anni, e ogni ritorno è più incantevole del precedente: è il luogo più vicino al paradiso che conosca. L’ospitalità è un perfetto equilibrio di discrezione e premura, capace di farti sentire a casa in ogni dettaglio. Le camere affacciate sul mare ti cullano con il suono della risacca, regalando un senso di pace profonda che non pensavi di poter provare. Evviva la Buca di Bacco!

Indimenticabile soggiorno. L'albergo è una vera meraviglia, con la posizione migliore in assoluto, l'unico di Positano sulla spiaggia. Panoramicissimo. Servizio impeccabile. Stanze da sogno, arredate con grande gusto, nel tipico stile della costiera, pulitissime e comodissime (mai dormito così bene, materassi e cuscini top). Nulla da invidiare ad un 5 stelle

Great location on the beach. Close to a multitude of restaurants. 1 hour from Pompeii and Sorrento 1/2 hour boat ride to Capri for day trips. Recently renovated from our previous trip here in 2019. Great helpful staff. I’d be back a 3rd time in a heart beat!
