La Maliosa Positano

The hotel itself is a bit far away from the main part of Positano, it’s above Treville actually as we saw the water taxis below. Host Anna was amazing and greeted us upon arrival. She was so lovely and helped us with booking cars during a busy high season (which was needed to get back/forth from town approx $30-40 p ride), helped us speak to local restaurants about reservations and also was just awesome in general. We used a local boat company she recommended for our private boat tour. We did not interface much with other staff but they were also friendly enough. Anna was our main person we felt connected with and she was also the friendliest. The hotel itself is charming but definitely a more on the dated side. The fountains on the grounds did not work, the lounge chairs did not have any cushions or covers on them. For hotel rooms the pillows could use a replacement as the batting inside was matted and not fluffy (which is why some friends I know being their own pillows on trips) and same with the bedding and sheets. Everything was super clean though and the inclusive breakfast spread was lovely. After we checked out they said we owed a 3euro pp charge per day (asked for us to pay in cash) which is not much but it would have been great for that to be charged when we booked? So what we would have left is just any incidentals? We wanted to share a tip with Anna directly at check-out for being so helpful during our stay but we didn’t see her prior to our 6:30am car pick up.

Very nice property. As in all of Positano, many stairs to reach the beach area. Staff was very helpful. As it is about 20 min walk outside Positano and far from restaurants, I highly recommend using the free dinner shuttle that La Maliosa has with 3 different restaurants. The restaurants are all pricey in this area, but you do not want to add on 2 one-way fares for taxi service which can be 30-35Euro each way. Taxi service is very expensive in this area and bus service is completely overcrowded. For a quiet get away in a beautiful area, La Maliosa is a very good bed and breakfast.

This is truly the perfect hotel for your Amalfi coast experience. Is just 2 bus stops east of main Positano bus stop. The hotel is positioned on the hillside so there was no road noise. The hotel has multiple levels of gardens with orange and lemon trees. It has that amazing view you see in brochures of the Amalfi coast. Breakfast is served in the outside cafe overlooking the amazing water view with the city of Positano in the distance. Enjoyed the walk down to the nearby beach. Everyone was so helpful. Cannot say enough about this hotel.

This property has amazing views, is right above the beach and beach club, but it’s 20 minutes from town and there was no WiFi.

The highlight of this property are the views and the hotel grounds! Breakfast views and views from the front of the room are extraordinary. Staff is very kind. Room is pretty basic and you can often hear neighbors but I really didn’t mind. It was a unique stay. It is a bit out of town from Positano (which I liked for the peacefulness). It’s about a 30 min walk to the harbor and 15-20 mins of that is on some hairpin turn roads thst can be a bit scary to walk on because of the close cars if you’re not used to it (all the locals do it though). Only thing I didn’t like was that there were no instructions for the safe and when I asked I was given the code to open it but couldn’t customize the code which kind of defeats the purpose. The property felt extremely safe however

Wow!!! This is a stunning property! The views are amazing! You cannot beat the location. If you are hiking the “Path of the gods” the path drops you out about 100ft from this property. It is street level with only a few steps to descend down to get to your room(depending on the room)

Amazing views and very pretty. Quiet and enjoyable if you are looking for a quiet vacation or work remote place. The room is clean and the staff is friendly, the location is about 25 min walk to the city of Positano or you can take a bus or an overpriced taxi to town. It's also about 250 steps from a private beach and a very overpriced beach club. Overall had a great time.

Yohave to walk 80 stairs down and carry all your bags down and then walk another 80 stairs up to get your bags again. The main issue that don't put all the information at expedia for the customer to know that truth. It's really a tricky location much more than you imagine. And the pictures doesn't show the reality at all. And they put ( parking available ) but it's not available this only get your attention. Of course i respect other locations in general how they make it clear to the customers and they put all the information as it is. But here only attraction and we get there it's totally something else. I wish them best luck. But myself i will never even think of stopping there at all.

Nice hotel about 1km from Positano. The guy who greeted us put us right off the place though, trying to charge us 50 euro for off road parking and also tried to get us booked in to a positano restaurant ran by his friends. Also requested cash payment for the room extras and appeared very upset when we paid by card. Shame because aside from his aproach, it would have been a really nice stay.

We loved the view from out bed and breakfast. It was quiet and relaxing. The hostess Anna is AMAZING! She helped book our taxis, reservations to resturants and shuttles to the resturants recommended by the b&b. She always let us know when pur car service was there. Breakfast is included here. They offer lunch which you pay for when you check out. The food was delicious and homemade. The mini fridge is fully stocked with water, soda, beer, wine, prosecco, limoncello, orange juice and aperol spritz. Whatever you drink from there you also pay at checkout but the prices are pretty affordable. We can get to a beach straight from the b&b you have to walk down about 200 steps but its beautiful and people pay 600,000 Euros to go there. You're about 18-20min walk from the Positano main area. There are many shops and restaurants thatare delicious. We tried 2 out of the 4 resturants recommended from the b&b which were also amazing...La Gabrisa and Da Constatino. We also ate at La Combusa and Don Giovanni which were also amazing. The b&b also provides beach towels for 5,00 euros which was amazing. She

Es una propiedad realmente hermosa con jardines y vista al mar increibles, la habitación limpia y cómoda y los alrededores muy bellos únicamente el traslado al centro de positano está a un km maximo 15 min a pie pero es sobre la carretera y sus curvas y tienes que ir con cuidado por el tráfico vehicular

25 minute walk to Positano, the buses are not reliable so be prepared to walk. Cleanliness was average, beautiful views from the entire property

Very clean and they have Ana who is very friendly and helpful. Beautiful views!!!

The staff was very friendly and helped with recommendations and reservations. The room was very clean and the view was the best.

The views are spectacular. The personnel very kind with limited english. The fact that I traveled with grown kids and only one key is provided and one has to climb 80 something steps up and down to open the door for them to come in the hotel is interesting. One gets accustomed to walk around 1.8 km to reach the beautiful town. We did have a wonderful time, and understandingly the summer is a very active time of the year. It is a clean place in a beautiful area limited by space and its geography, i would recommend it.

the room was nice and clean.

Clean excellent service and great location.

Property was clean, and so peaceful

Meget fint og rent værelse. Venligt personale. Haven og de mange muligheder for at nyde udsigten er fantastisk. Meget rent og velholdt overalt. God morgenmad.

I have only the best things to say about La Maliosa! I stayed here with my boyfriend for 5 nights on our first trip to Italy, and it was the best introduction to Italy we could have asked for. As soon as we arrived, the host greeted us with peach iced tea, and even though it was technically after lunch hours, they asked us if we were hungry and cooked us up some delicious pasta. Throughout our stay, the hosts were very attentive and always available for questions or if we just wanted an afternoon cappuccino. They were so lovely! Our room was great, with a nice private courtyard and an incredible view of Positano. Sitting on the patio, it practically feels like you're on the water and it felt so cozy and peaceful. If you're looking for a luxurious hotel experience with lots of amenities, this might not be for you, but for us it was absolutely perfect. Way more affordable than the expensive hotels in the center of Positano, and nice and quiet! The walk to and from the center village really wasn't too bad (we did it 2x daily), and we joked that it was good cardio for us to work off all the delicious carbs we were indulging in! I'd definitely stay here again and I'm so grateful to the hosts for providing us with a comfortable and wonderful stay. Thank you!

Amazing view of the coast

Mycket vackert ställe i vacker natur. Vi hade en uteplats med magiskt utsikt mot havet. Dock lite lyhört mellan rummen. Personalen trevliga och hjälpsamma. Vi var nöjda.

The place isn’t horrible but you are a 30 minute walk from Positano and the rooms are pretty small and not anything special. You’re walking on a busy road with cars flying by you on a giant cliff. I wouldn’t recommend staying here.

This property blatantly misrepresents its rooms on Expedia by using pictures of the "suite" for the double room we purchased. We chose this hotel because the pictures of the rooms looked great. We were surprised to be given a tiny, dark prison cell of a room that looked nothing like the pictures. The shower is so small I could barely fit in it. The bed is terrible. When we asked about the room appearing different than the pictures, we were told we could have the "suite" for an additional $100 Euro per night. It turns out this "suite" is the room shown in the pictures for the double room we purchased. When we asked management they said the owner was not on the property and there was nothing they could do about it. We later found out this was the owner Felix, lying through his teeth in order to not refund us. We left the property immediately because Expedia chat said not to worry, they would take care of it for us. It turns out that was not true either, after fighting with them for hours we got a partial refund. The owner refused to refund anything. This place is a scam, avoid at all costs.

Very limited facilities and small rooms for the price in comparison to others in Positano we have stayed at

Located 25 minutes away from Positano. Taxis are rare and crazy expensive and the road has no sidewalks, so it can be a bit dangerous. The room was small and simple. When its windy it can be very noisy. The staff was friendly and the breakfast was good. Other hotels inside Positano can cost 4x or 5x. Still, I would advise to stay in Sorrento and visit Positano for a day.

The view from the room is amazing

Se escucha todo del cuarto de enseguida

I bought it for the seventh went to go check in. Yes it was later but no one was there. I called every number emailed still never heard anything back. I’m still waiting for my money back. I just stay outside of the hotel room for over 2 1/2 hours at 10 o’clock at night waiting for a taxi. The worst time of my life.

The property is pretty but it was difficult to get to from the boat landing with no instructions from the hotel. Felix made dinner reservations for us each night but he always seemed annoyed with us. That made the stay very uncomfortable.

This has been the most wonderful stay. Felix and Ana are truly the best, so helpful in everything. They helped us get taxis & let us know what stores to go to if we needed anything. They also list all the restaurants that provide a free shuttle to and from the hotel, highly recommend you do that. The restaurants were fantastic & once you’re done they get you a shuttle back. We stayed for a full 10 days and we had no complaints. They helped us with our bags, they served the best lunch. Seriously 10/10. Felix is such a great chef. If you look in your book you’ll see he was in National Geographic. It was such a well kept hotel, they were always trimming the trees and cleaning the property, sweeping. They serve breakfast every morning & don’t skip out on the capuchinos. For everyone saying it’s not a 15 min walk, they are lying. It’s a close walk to the restaurants in Positano. Yes , there’s stairs but that’s everywhere in Positano. I would stay here again & again. I’m so sad to leave.

What a spectacular bed and breakfast! A beautiful property with comfortable rooms and spectacular views! Felix is an amazing chef and gardener. He is a welcoming host and his team makes guests feel right at home. I will definitely return!

Very friendly staff. Amazing service. Thank you.

I'm writing this review a day later because I needed time to process how bad it was! To start off, we arrive on scooters and call the call box; a man answers and states we have to pay 10 euros to get our bags down...huh? I told him we weren't parking and he kept saying to move our scooters if we weren't gonna keep them there...all while we were getting our bags off the scooters. Check in was nice, they gave us a very refreshing peach tea to go along with the wrong room. We got a triple room (rated 3.4/10) instead of a double (rated 10/10) even though we booked a double. Then we asked to move and he laughed at me saying that we should be grateful for the extra bed. Also he said the pictures under the double room were actually just hotel pictures when we inquired why the views look way different than the photo. I guess the third bed was for the bugs and lizards which roomed with us.... hotels.com tried to fix it by calling and couldn't so they refunded; we got on with our day. The grounds were decent, nothing like the photos but pretty cute place. We got a strange knock on our door at 10:11am saying we have to leave now because they need the room. Checkout is at 10:30am (which is a terrible time anyways), why harass us before that? Finally we went to check out and pay the tax and he calculated it wrong (angry about hotels.com calling them much?) asking me for €30 instead of 16. I helped him with the math and he wanted all my cash (€10) and 6 on my credit card.

Beautiful views and garden. Very friendly staff. Anna was wonderful.

would just say that the propertly location is pretty far away from positano - 10-25 minute walk on a windy, somewhat dangerous road. definitely not safe to walk at night, and taxi drivers will rip you off and charge 30-40 euro for a 3 minute ride. the property itself has a beautiful view of the water since everything in positano is on a cliff. i had issues with my air conditioning unit - it really did not work for the entirety of my trip positano is a beautiful place but just be mindful of the nature of the accommodations you are booking and be sure you know what you're getting

This was an absolutely amazing place. Staff are so friendly, the place and grounds were impressive. The coastal view from our balcony was tranquil and stunning. I would highly recommend this property. It is about a 15 minute walk on a winding road to Positano but well worth the walk. It is at the start of the Path of Gods. Thank you formthe wonderful memories.

Got the room because it says close to ferry. You have to hike and take a bus or both. No transportation service available other than a bus stop 20 meters away. Nice place with a view, not centrally located. Have your transportation planned prior and don’t rely on the ferry.

The room was small for the price we paid, it said sleep 4 but definitely max 3 people can make it. The area outside is full of mosquitoes and the breakfast is served only from 7:30 to 9:30, we hurried to have breakfast and 2 of the boiled eggs we opened where completely rotten.

Cet hébergement est tout simplement magnifique. Les extérieurs extrêmement bien entretenus et fleuris, les ameublements et la vue superbe sur mer. Très peu de magasin et de restaurant ouverts à Positano hors saison, aussi le propriétaire s’est proposé de nous préparer le déjeuner: un chef… son tiramisu citron était délicieux
