Frequently asked questions

What other neighbourhoods are similar to Upper Positano?
While Upper Positano offers a distinct experience, the most comparable areas for a similar quality and convenience are the central areas of Praiano and Amalfi.

Praiano, located just a short drive from Positano, offers a more tranquil and exclusive experience. It's built into the cliffside, much like Positano, providing breathtaking sea views, especially from hotels perched high above the water. The main street, Via Roma, has a selection of restaurants and shops, and the area is known for its beautiful sunsets.

Couples looking for a romantic and quiet escape will find Praiano particularly appealing. It offers the same stunning coastal beauty as Positano but with fewer crowds, making it ideal for relaxing by the pool or enjoying a leisurely dinner with a view. Many hotels here offer private terraces and direct access to the sea.

Amalfi, the historical heart of the Amalfi Coast, provides a slightly more bustling yet still premium experience. The town centres around the Piazza Duomo and the magnificent Amalfi Cathedral. Its main street, Via Lorenzo d'Amalfi, is lined with shops, cafes, and restaurants.
