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.

This was our 10th time visiting Buca di Baco and it never disappoints. A beautiful hotel in a great location right on the beach with beautiful views. The staff is wonderful, the restaurant is always great along with the breakfast buffet. The staff go out of their way to see that we always have everything we need. I would never stay anywhere else when visiting Positano. I am looking forward to many more visits in the future. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Positano.

The staff was friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Clean rooms and a spacious bathroom. Certainly the best location we could have hoped for. Door to ferry is about 2-3 minutes. Without a doubt, the best breakfast service I had in Italy. I won’t be returning to Positano but the hotel was excellent.

Visiting Positano has been a dream of mine for years, and finally experiencing it was everything I had hoped for and more. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by the most incredible view I've ever seen. It was simply breathtaking. The room was beautiful, thoughtfully appointed, and the bed was exceptionally comfortable. The entire staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. A special thank you to Barbara, who was so gracious with her restaurant recommendations and happily arranged all of our reservations. Every recommendation was outstanding. This hotel was definitely a splurge for the view, but it was worth every penny. Thank you for giving us the experience of a lifetime. It's a stay we'll never forget.
