Villa Prestige

La location, vista la posizione, la piscina e la vista era da cartolina.

La colazione, nonostante sia stata pagata come supplemento, è risultata mediocre, lenta ad essere servita. La villa, dove siamo stati, era dislocata e di notte scomoda da raggiungere.

Tidy rooms with amazing views. Excellent, friendly and reponsive staff

Nothing in particular

Tutto. Posto molto carino e curato. Le stanze sono belle luminose e pulite. Ma soprattutto lo staff eccezionale. Ci hanno preparato la camera con petali di rose e scritte colorate sapendo che eravamo neo sposi. Davvero gentili. Da consigliare

Nulla

The hotel has beautiful views and its' sister property, Hotel Prestige, has a really nice swimming pool and terrace. The room was nicely renovated and had a big bathroom. The villa itself is quite nice and has a total of 5 rooms. We had a big room with a nice balcony to enjoy the view.

I had extremely high expectations for this hotel and as beautiful as our room and the pool at the other property were, it was all a disappointing experience. While I knew that the hotel was far from the city center (about 20-25 minutes), the main issue was that there is little to no public transportation that can be counted on to arrive to/from this hotel. Unfortunately private taxis and transfers are EXTREMELY expensive throughout the Amalfi Coast, so keep this in mind in booking this hotel. To enjoy this hotel properly, you must either have your own car or be willing to spend anywhere from 60 Euros for a short lift to the city center to over 100 Euro to get to Positano. On top of that, the "free" shuttle service that the hotel provides is very scarce and you are constantly looking at your watch to make sure you don't miss one of the very few shuttles provided. Unlike other hotels that are far from the center, this hotel has opted not to offer more shuttles. In fact, as noted in several other reviews, there is no shuttle service at all between noon and 5:30pm! That simply does not work because now your entire day is focused around the hotel's schedule. While you can certainly get to the hotel from the bus station in the center, the problem is more in not being able to catch the bus to Positano because the bus will almost surely be full by that point. Also, the bus stop is in fact not that close to the Villa Prestige and I was shocked the hotel expected guests to lug their luggage up that hilly curvy road that doesn't even have a sidewalk on either side. Very dangerous! They also expect the Villa guests to walk on that dangerous road to get to the pool which is quite a distance aways! Finally, as the first shuttle of the day isn't until 8:30am. it's not early enough to catch connecting flights/trains upon checking out. You're forced to pay big money to depart the hotel.
