The villa is well positioned in Positano and it is possibly to get dropped off and picked up from the front door. We found our room, the king suite spacious and elegantly decorated, however there was a strong smell of drains from the bathroom which sadly didn’t get any better even by keeping the fan on. The staff are very friendly and helpful and gave us really useful advise before walking the "Path of the Gods" The breakfast is very limited, scrambled eggs is the only hot option. Fresh fruit is provided but otherwise most of the food is very sweet or processed. It was disappointing not to have some quality Italian cheese, tomatoes or cold meats.

I was shocked at what we got for the price. I have stayed on the coast many times and received a more luxurious stay at half this price. Shop around. I would not recommend staying here. The staff were lovely but not value for money at all. Breakfast just ok. I would expect more for $350 a stay in off season

The perfect Hotel

La Bizantana is the most beautiful hotel we have stayed in. It has a balcony with table and chairs overlooking town and water. We lived on the balcony. The room/hotel had beautiful tile work throughout and beautiful fabrics. As an interior designer, it was designed with so much detail. They have a fairly private deck with loungers and a jacuzzi with shade and sun. Breakfast was a huge spread served on a patio overlooking the town and water. Staff is excellent in service. They helped us navigate the local bus and around town. Super friendly and attentive. Best stay ever!

We loved this Property! Can’t beat the views from our terrace. No obstructed views. The staff was amazing. Arranged transfer of our luggage from the ferry to the hotel. They also arranged for a taxi to take us to Bomerano so we could hike Path of the Gods. Since our hike was a 7 in the morning , they packed us sandwiches, waters, pastries and fruit the night before so we would have something to eat. Very thoughtful!!! We will definitely stay here again.

The property sits higher on the hill than we expected, but we adjusted. The bathroom is a bit awkward as there is no place to put any toiletries inside and you have to use the vanity outside to open and close every time you need shampoo etc. It was a good place overall

The property is nice and clean. Expected going there on winter everything is close. Restaurant is .7 mile uphill just to eat dinner. The hotel is nice and clean but the room smells like urine odor even after they clean. There is no transportation but you can request from the front desk.
