Hotel is beautiful and in a fantastic location . Staff excellent. The restaurant is great but fine dining isn’t something I would do for 4 nights and there’s only room service as an option. The other (beach bar) was closed. Finally it is advertised as having air conditioning. This is only set to heating until May so there was no air conditioning.

Dear Peter,Thank you for choosing our hotel and for sharing your experience with us. We're thrilled to learn that you found our property beautiful and enjoyed our prime location, along with the high standards of cleanliness and service provided by our dedicated staff.We deeply regret any inconvenience caused by the limited dining options available during your stay. While our restaurant offers an exceptional dining experience, we understand the importance of providing diverse culinary options, particularly for longer stays. Your feedback is invaluable, and we're committed to exploring avenues to enrich our dining offerings for the comfort and satisfaction of our guests.Regarding the air conditioning, we sincerely apologize for any confusion surrounding its functionality. Typically, during this season, our region experiences cooler temperatures, warranting the use of heating systems. However, this year's weather patterns have indeed taken an unexpected turn, with higher temperatures persisting longer than anticipated. Consequently, our system remained in heating mode during your visit. We understand the significance of maintaining a comfortable room climate and deeply regret any discomfort this may have caused.Your feedback serves as a valuable tool for us to continually improve, and we genuinely appreciate your insights. It is our earnest hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for an even more delightful experience in the future.Warm regards,Salvatore MoschellaGeneral Manager

When you enter the main gate you’ll feel like you’re in weird hood but once you enter the hotel you’ll be in paradise. The views from everywhere in this hotel are to die for. Waking up to the sunrise and the lake was amazing. The service, food and attention was absolutely incredible. The only thing missing is an elevator from the ground level to bring your bags down to the reception. This is the only place I would stay from now on when visiting Positano. If you can afford it book it !! You won’t be disappointed.

We stayed there 2 nights and our toilet broke about 6 times, and every time they sent someone to fix it but it did not work. It was very inconvenient. The AC was not working efficiently either and it was super humid at night. I would def not rate this hotel as 5 star, and it was way too overprice for what it was.

Not a 5 start hotel. We have stayed In many 5 star hotels and this one is lacking in a lot of areas. You can tell it’s a hotel designed for lucrative purposes, not for hospitality of their guests. Aside from it being huge, it’s very inconvenient to get around, most of the times you’re lost since there’s no direction sings on how to get around and since your up in a hill, they offer shuttles every hour so if you missed it you must wait another hour and taxi prices are ridiculously expensive, for a 5-10 min ride they charge starting at $70 euros. They don’t offer complimentary pick up from or to the port for their guests. The pool is very outdated, we didn’t even get in. The beach club looks abandoned from the outside and the food is horrendous, I don’t understand how they have a Michelin star restaurant but offer such mediocre food to their guests at the beach club. Their breakfast selection is very basic and not up to 5 star standards To top it off, at the time of checkout (I’ll reserve the name) didn’t even ask how our stay was but was quick to ask for a tip when paying our bill, we were ready to leave! You’re only paying for the view here, nothing else. I wish we stayed at another hotel, I do not recommend.

We loved this hotel. Away from the business of the main area in positano. But the shuttle and water taxis made it easy to get to town when you wanted to. We enjoyed the beach club, the pool and the spa. The concierge was so helpful. Arranging car services, dinner reservations and even helping with a boat tour. Every server, shuttle driver, boat captain was so incredibly friendly. We stayed an extra day.

Doesn't Resemble Quality of a Relais & Chateau
The view was exquisite, the dinners were good, but the actual rooms were just okay. Not what I expect when I book a Relais & Chateau (we have been to many, this was not up to the average quality). The funicular (property elevator) between areas is slow and broke for an hour while we were stuck downstairs - so do not stay here if you can't go up/down stairs! The suite we booked had no living room coffee table and was a little sparsely decorated in the bedroom, which gave a less than plush vibe. The bed and pillows themselves were not comfortable and there was no comforter on the bed either strangely. We couldn't control the AC. It was just a strange stay. We are in a lot of hotels this trip and I kept forgetting it was a R&C and instead thought it was a mid-tier Marriott (but for the outside view and price). Service was great but didn't get several room service orders correct, just as a note, since we still enjoyed our food. Overall, I would not recommend this hotel - there are lots of alternatives in Positano for a better price (or even in Capri!).

Marvelous views, the hotel’s location is rather far from the crowds yet is barely ten minutes away from Positano central town , what you shouldn’t miss is “la Serra “ restaurant which exceeds fine dining with its exquisite flavors and presentation crowned with the majestic views . Friendly staff all around .. however it is worth mentioning that the structure of the landscape ( not only the hotel) is not friendly to people with disabilities, the hotel itself though equipped with a funicular and an elevator , still requires quiet few steep steps. Each room had its own spacious terrace that adds a lot of space to any room type you pick, but is surely a natural floating deck in those stunning views, a cloud in the sky if I may say

I will go again, something about the Italian culture you just have to love. Great hotel!

3 Star hotel at 5 Star prices
This is not a 5 Star hotel. More like a 3 Star Hotel. The rooms and facilities are dated and grungy. We paid $1500 per night for a small room. The air conditioning did not work and we barely had a view. There is a lot of stairs to climb at the resort to get anywhere: it’s fairly far from the town. The only positive part of the experience was the nice staff.

Incredible hotel and better than the photos. The hotel is situated on a cliff so there are many floors which are either accessible by elevator or the funhicular. The views are stunning and I particularly liked that it was located just outside of downtown so it wasn’t super crowded, but they offered an hourly shuttle to town which was super convenient. Staff including Elisabetta were phenomenal and so helpful. The jewel was the beach club which was one of the best swimming experiences I’ve had- the water was stunning and the sun beds had a great view. Drink and food prices are slightly higher than what you would find in downtown Positano.

Hotel is beautiful but be prepared for a lot of steps to get anywhere. Front desk staff were very helpful and very nice. The staff that served the beach area not so much unfortunately. The only thing with this hotel is it is outside of the town so you are dependent on transportation to and from which can be difficult. Also with restaurant suggestions ask about the walking situation. Maps apps not very helpful and ended up walking 37 flights of stairs to and from one restaurant

Hotel Agave was a very nice hotel with several amenities (private beach access with lift, amazing views and a great breakfast). Room we were in had a fantastic view but for the price we paid this time of year it was priced double what it should have been. Older rooms that without the views would be considered dated and in need of some upgrade. Also not sound proof as you could hear the neighbors next door. Staff was fantastic with great recs for local food and how to get around. Overall, was a nice stay in Positano. Come outside of high season to get a break on prices and this place is a great choice.
