Another iconic family-run hotel in picturesque Positano is Hotel Marincanto. Having supposedly inspired painters and been used as a movie set Hotel Marincanto has been open since 1967 and offers elegance, privacy and five-star service for guests year round. For those who visit to relax, the infinity pool which blends with the horizon, the exclusive private beach and the ocean-view fitness area will be ideal whilst the Terrazza Cele restaurant offers sophisticated local cuisine on an intimate terrace overlooking the sea. The hotel décor is predominantly cool, muted tones of white or cream, wooden floors, classic furniture, with splashes of colour thanks to vibrant textiles. The owners are hands on with service and the intimate size of the hotel (only 32 rooms) means you can always expect to be treated like a star (even if you aren’t one!).
