This is the best experience I’ve ever had at a hotel. Their customer service was amazing. The whole team in the breakfast area each day were so attentive and cleaned up dishes so quickly. The team of Rosario, Augustic, and Bruhella out on the pool were amazing. They even renamed me Mr Grazzia. The front desk was so helpful in anything we wanted to do. The Pizza restaurant had amazing pizza and a great place for a walking around beer. The location of this hotel was so perfect and the view each day from our room was breathtaking. Being so close to the beach and pier for day trips were great. Also having a pool to relax in after a day at the beach was a huge plus. This hotel was worth every cent.
Excellent hotel and staff!!!

It was our second time to staying at covo, this time we came back with our family before we were getting married in Positano. It is our favourite hotel in Positano, the positioning for location is perfect, all of the staff are truly excellent with their friendly nature and service. For me whenever we return to Positano this is the only hotel we would stay in :)
A hotel with beautiful views and a great staff

Covii dei Saraceni has beautiful views of Positano, the sea and beach. The lobby was beautiful and has a nice relaxing vibe to sit and have a drink from the bar. The rooftop bar was outstanding with gorgeous views of Positano and the sea. The staff was so attentive in giving you impeccable service. We dined at their main restaurant a couple of times and the food was fabulous besides having amazing views. The breakfast room also had amazing views of Positano and sea. The staff was very accommodating. Our room was a little bit dated but the large balcony with views made up for it. The maid service was outstanding. The hotel is in a great location near shopping, beach, restaurants. You don’t have to walk a lot of stairs if you don’t want to. It’s located above the pier where the ferries come in but it was not a distraction for us. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed our stay.
Amazing

We had the best experience at hotel Covo dei Saraceni !! From the moment we got there the staff was extremely welcoming and helpful with our luggage and rooms. We got a full hotel tour upon arrival. The hotel is absolutely beautiful!!! Our rooms had an amazing view of the beach and the beauty of Positano. We had a great balcony and we traveled with family and had three rooms. They put us all next to each other which was amazing. Great breakfast every morning with even better views. They had the most amazing bar tenders at night who made great espresso martinis !! But the highlight was the roof top pool! It was the absolute best pool view. Overlooking the best views of Positano while not dealing with the busy crowds and crowds on the beach. We were able to relax and enjoy snacks and drinks by the pool with the best staff. Huge thanks to Rosario, Augusta and all the staff at this hotel for making our family vacation unforgettable:) I apologize if we forgot some names of staff! But 10/10 would recommend this hotel to anyone on the Almalfi Coast !!!
