Very polite and helpful staff. Paolo at the front was the BEST!!! He gave us so many recommendations for food and activities, and even bid us farewell with a good luck charm. Breakfast was superb. Would definitely recommend!! ☺️
Gorgeous views! Pleasant staff. Clean room. Dated bathroom. Breakfast buffet is good. Restaurant chef is limited in face of some dietary restrictions..
This Hotel was spectacular. I wish we had been able to stay longer. Everything was amazing.
Beautiful pool, wonderful beach and gorgeous views. Beware the stairs. It’s a steep long climb from the lobby to the pool & beach but well worth it. (Do NOT forget anything if you’re headed to beach or pool because it will be tiring to go get it! lol)
We cannot wait to return.
Great time. We enjoyed are stay. We also attended a wedding there and it was amazing. The mattress is quite firm. Coming from another hotel that was priced a little bit lower ($150 or so) I thought it might be a little better, but they included in room drinks daily, waters, sodas, and more coffee options. That would have been an extra incentive. Other than that the staff is amazing. We had a great time.
It was not our first time at Marincanto hotel we have been there in the past. It is where we got engaged and we wanted to return here for our honeymoon as it was very special to us. There is a guy who works there named Paolo who is just amazing. He takes care of you. He makes you feel at home with reservations with help around the property. Any information about Positano he just knows how to make it that much more special all the staff there are amazing. The restaurants and the views are excellent and the hotel location is 10 out of 10. You have a private beach just two minute walk down the steps to the water. There isn’t much more you can ask for I promise you you love this place especially if you were looking for romantic/family getaway.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Absolutely unforgettable stay at Hotel Marincanto! From the moment we arrived, everything was exceptional. The hotel is simply stunning, with breathtaking views over Positano and the Amalfi Coast — honestly, the kind of view that doesn’t even look real.
The location is perfect: close enough to easily walk into the heart of Positano, yet peaceful and relaxing once you’re back at the hotel. The property itself is beautiful, full of charm and character, and every little corner feels special.
Our room was gorgeous, impeccably clean and comfortable, and waking up to that incredible view every morning was something we’ll never forget. The pool and terraces overlooking the sea are absolutely spectacular, and having direct access down toward the beach made the experience even better.
The staff truly made our stay exceptional. Everyone we encountered was warm, welcoming, professional, and genuinely attentive. The service felt effortless and personal without ever being intrusive.
Breakfast with that view, drinks by the pool, watching the sunset over Positano… everything about Marincanto felt like the perfect Italian dream.
We absolutely loved our stay and would return without hesitation. If you’re looking for a beautiful, romantic and truly memorable place to stay in Positano, Marincanto is worth every star. Five stars simply aren’t enough. 🇮🇹✨
We absolutely loved our stay at Hotel Marincanto. From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming, attentive, and accommodating. There are too many wonderful people to mention, but a special thank you to Paolo, the concierge, who went above and beyond to help us plan amazing dinners and excursions that made our trip unforgettable. Chito, Dino, Jason, Mary, and Anita were also exceptional and made us feel truly cared for throughout our stay.
The hotel itself is stunning, with breathtaking, picturesque views around every corner. We especially loved having access to the private beach, and the breakfast buffet each morning was phenomenal—one of the highlights of our stay.
Thank you to the entire team for creating such beautiful memories for us. We cannot wait to return to Hotel Marincanto and experience its magic again! Highly recommended. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Gorgeous hotel close to the downtown Positano area. Private beach is a huge bonus. Staff was incredible especially Paolo and delicious breakfast every morning as part of our stay.

This hotel made our stay in Positano a couple of the best days of our lives!

Our room was incredible overlooking the clear blue sea and views of Positano were magnificent. You will not be disappointed staying here! Total luxury with gorgeous views!
Beautiful hotel at the waters edge albeit 300 steps up! Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Very comfortable beds. Good wifi - able to stream/FaceTime. Delicious breakfast included. Located just steps from the town centre.
We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Marincanto - the location and view from our room was incredible. We were very grateful to Paolo for his fantastic recommendations and generous time he spent sharing his insights in the area. Highly recommend!
