Positano's Dolce Vita

  1. The charm of a historic hotel in Positano
  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.

We recently returned from a European vacation and one of our destinations was Positano, Italy. While there our family of five stayed at Hotel Buca di Bacco. The hotel is luxurious and overlooks the Mediterranean. While we stayed at some wonderful hotels on this trip the staff at Hotel Buca di Bacco made our stay especially rememberable. So, I want to give a special shout out to the front desk staff - Barbara and Giuseppe - and to our daily server at the morning buffet - Amadou. They were each so welcoming and took wonderful care of us. I want to return to this hotel just to see them again!

Buca di Bacco is more than a hotel in Positano — it feels like part of Positano itself. The location is exceptional, just steps from the beach and close to everything, a rare privilege in a town built on hills and stairways. Its restaurant is another highlight, combining authentic Italian flavors with the lively atmosphere of the village. And then there are the beautiful traditional tiled floors: full of color, history and personality, giving every corner that unmistakable Mediterranean charm. A hotel with a privileged address, genuine character and a soul that no modern luxury can imitate. At Buca di Bacco, you don’t simply stay in Positano — you live it.

The hotel is in an excellent location, making it a great base for exploring the area. Very efficient check-in, and it was a lovely touch to find a complimentary bottle of Prosecco waiting for us in the room. A special mention goes to Roeland on reception, who provided excellent service. He was professional, welcoming, and very helpful throughout our stay. Overall, we had a great experience. We would happily recommend this hotel and would consider staying again. From Sasha & Skye
