Address
Via Regina Giovanna, 5 - Positano

There are few hotels on the Amalfi Coast that better represent the essence of this magical stretch of seaside - its bright colors, resort atmosphere, flower scented breeze, and easy elegance - than the Covo dei Saraceni, a five star hotel in Positano with suites and terraces overlooking the Mediterranean, sumptuous traditional dishes served in the restaurant, and scenic swimming pools.

The Colors of Positano

Stepping into the rooms and suites of the Covo dei Saraceni is like entering an elegant Mediterranean home. The interiors are furnished with care in the unique Amalfi Coast style, including lively majolica tiles from Vietri in the bathrooms, but with the maximum of luxury and comfort. Each suite has its own private pool on the outdoor terrace. It's like a dream come true!

Two swimming pools, one of which an infinity pool looking over the sea, beach, and colorful houses of Positano. Both are surrounded by comfortable loungers and sun beds, and have heated water in the cooler months. What could be better?

The Best of Amalfi Cuisine

A vacation on the Amalfi Coast isn't complete without a generous sampling of the famed local cuisine. For this reason, Covo dei Saraceni takes it upon themselves to provide guests a veritable gastronomic paradise.
The Covo dei Saraceni restaurant has a jaw-dropping view, but even that isn't enough to distract from the parade of dishes coming out of their gourmet kitchen. Made with the best ingredients from the Amalfi Coast and presented with care, accompanied by a bottle of wine from their large cellar. The hotel also boasts a poolside cafe for a light lunch or dinner al fresco, or La Brasserie on the beach for a quick bite of Positano's best pizza in between dips in the sea.

A memorable visit to Positano 🥂

Came to Positano from Naples for 2 nights while on a 10 day trip to Campania in Italy. This is a lovely hotel with a great central location near the beach and the Marina. The staff are very helpful and nice. There is a wonderful breakfast served in a lovely room overlooking the bay. Rooms have a balcony and we were very lucky to have pleasant weather so added to our experience. There is a lovely rooftop swimming pool with full bar service but remember food and drink in Positano is not cheap, but when on holidays need to park this and enjoy. One downside is that it is only accessible on foot if you travel by car but the ideal is to get a ferry as is less than 100m to the Marina. All in all a wonderful visit and to be recommended.

This is a lovely hotel in an ideal location in Positano. We especially love the swimming pool that overlooks the town as well as the coast to Praiano - it's a great place to relax after a days touring of the town or other parts of the Amalfi Coast. All of the staff are friendly and extremely helpful - my wife and I always come back to stay at Covo dei Saraceni when we come back to Positano!

Our stay at Covo Dei Saraceni was truly magical ... from the service, to the views and the authenticity at this hotel made our vacation so very special. The location is most impressive, perched over the sea and so very convenient to town, shops and restaurants. We didn't want to leave this enchanting hotel. Thank you to all for the memories !

Unforgettable experience

It was the highlight of the trip. The rooftop pool. The location of the hotel in the middle of the beach level (as opposed to up on the hill, which is really convenient if you arrive by ferry, which we recommend), and the staff, were all incredible. Positano was amazing, but a big part of that was the hotel. Was it cheap? No. Was it worth it? Absolutely.
