My husband and I have stayed at the Buca di Bacco hotel in Positano twice - once in 2008 and again in 2010. We have been to Venice, Florence, Rome and Taormina and Buca di Bacco is by far our favorite hotel and is in the most magical place on earth - Positano! If you're going to the Amalfi Coast,... More

Can't say enough good things: staff are extremely friendly and helpful, like, honestly the nicest, sweetest, most genuine hotel staff I have ever come across (and I've traveled a lot). Amazing attentive service, great food, the hotel is beautiful and immaculately clean, location could not possibly be better, and I only paid 250 euro a night for my amazing room... More

We spent three nights here this time last year. A lovely hotel on the beach. Staff were very polite and helpful (Mario and Maria). They assisted in arranging ferry to Capri, and organising local boat tours. The room wasn't too spacious, but big enough for a couple. The buffet breakfast provides plenty of choices, with interrupted view of the water.... More

Recently had the pleasure of spending 2 nites at this beachfront hotel in Positano. Great views with very nice rooms that were immaculate and a bargain for this area. All staff were very helpful in the hotel and their attached restaurant. Fiorella from the front desk and Chantal from the breakfast room staff were outstanding as they went over and... More

We absolutely loved our stay at Buca di Baco! The location was perfect. Every single member of the staff was friendly and helpful. We felt so comfortable, relaxed and welcome. The view from our balcony was incredible and breakfast was delicious. The entire place was spotless and smelled great. Wouldn't even think of staying anywhere else. It was just heavenly.... More

We left Positano today and wouldn't stay anywhere else! The location on the beach was ideal - we spent quite a bit of time there. It was also a great location for exploring the town - many other hotels were up higher and would require walking along the road to reach the main town...with two children that would not be... More
