Wonderful stay, couldn’t have asked for anything better. Pool area is gorgeous, we ended up spending most of our time lounging on the pool deck. Service was impeccable, every single employee went above and beyond to make it a fantastic stay. Room was a great size and beautiful - clean, comfortable bed, well air conditioned, gorgeous views. Only minor complaint is our room seemed especially loud at night and in the morning, some of it seemed like loud pipes but just general working hotel noise seemed very loud in the morning, banging and clanging of things, loud talking, etc. Rooms are not soundproofed the best which is expected with older buildings, but was still a bummer, we did not have the quiet peaceful mornings exactly. Our room was on floor 2, the furthest from the center so perhaps that was it, that on the edge we caught more noise from back rooms or higher floors. Overall it didn’t massively impact our stay, was a bit annoying but we’re still thrilled we stayed here and will definitely be returning. Location is excellent, short walk to everything and no uphill climb after the beach, you just walk back in the front door which is basically next to the beach.

Loved, loved, loved it here!! We can’t say enough about this amazing property! From the staff, to the other guests, to the location, it was absolutely perfect! Our first time in Positano and Covo de Saraceni felt like home. We’d wake up early, tak a walk for cappuccino , a little shopping and then spend the afternoon at the pool. Brunella and Rosario were amazing, we miss them already! This is right at the dock for all boat trips, so if you’re doing any day trips it’s perfect. We didn’t hear any noise from our room or the pool, which we thought we would. I highly recommend staying here. We will definitely be back.

Stunning in Positano!

We had a wonderful experience at Covo. They were professional & polite…went above & beyond to make our holiday special. They even surprised our daughter at breakfast with a birthday cake…such a sweet thing to do. Loved the location also…steps from the ferry, close to shopping. Beautiful hotel in an amazing seaside town.

Lovely property, though a tad dated. It has an old world feel to it. Without exception the staff were kind, helpful and efficient. Breakfast was great. We are happy that we chose to be at the lower level of Positano and enjoyed the dining choices that were within easy walking range. We were there the first week in October and the buzz of activity as the ferries and boats pulled into the pier made it busy and noisy; so peak season maybe overwhelming.

This hotel is literally worth 50 dollars a night not 2300 a night! The customer service is horrible, they don’t have a coffee machine, no iron, or water! It’s very outdated! The breakfast has a small menu, it’s very outdated! - I regret spending a penny here! They don’t even care about their guests and they don’t care for the high price guests are paying to enjoy their stay! They over charge you for the luggage pickup and drop off!
