Hotel Villa Franca Positano

From its panoramic position, high up on the hillside overlooking Positano, Hotel Villa Franca boasts some of the finest views of both of this, one of most celebrated towns of the Amalfi Coast, and the sea which washes its shores. Until recently an elegant private residence, Villa Franca has been masterly transformed in charming 4 star hotel, complete with in and outdoor restaurants, wellness center and swimming pool.

Like the light-filled public rooms, Villa Franca's bedrooms are furnished in classic Mediterranean style, including majolica floor tiles, stone from Vesuvius and exquisite, hand-painted ceramics. Nearly all rooms have their own private terrace from where to admire breathtaking views of Positano and the sea.

Whether they choose to dine in the main "Li Galli" restaurant or in the panoramic top floor "Li Galli Open", guests can expect to enjoy the very finest local cuisine, prepared according to the proprietor's own family recipes by the talented chef, Franco Maresca.

The A&G Russo wellness center offers an extensive selection of face and body treatments as well as sun beds, Turkish bath and state-of-the-art fitness room. On the roof of the hotel, there is a large panoramic swimming pool, where to enjoy the sunshine in the company of some of the most beautiful scenery in the world.

Within easy walking distance of the historic center of Positano and the sea, Villa Franca lies only a few kilometers away from Amalfi, Praiano, Ravello and all the other pretty little towns on the 'Amalfi Coast. Ideal destinations for a day trip, the historic seaside town of Sorrento and the archeological sites of Pompeii and Herculaneum''' are less than an hour's drive away.
