Getting here with heavy luggage up the narrow streets and stairs was tough, but the staff made up for it immediately. When the front desk staff saw how exhausted and overheated we were, they immediately handed us cold water, and let us rest before even starting check-in. The location is amazing with views over Positano. We loved the pool, the beach club and the free pool bag with flipflops. The breakfast buffet was excellent. The staff was absolutely lovely. Would definitely recommend.

Great hotel with amazing views and one of the few hotels in Positano with its own beach access. Room was very large with a big balcony with sea view. Shower/bath was a bit dated. Breakfast was good. Getting to and from the beach requires a lot of steep stairs so keep that in mind - but that’s the case all over this coastal town. Staff were helpful with restaurant recommendations.

The hotel is very conveniently located. You can walk right up the street to the shops or go down the steps and be right to the beach . It was a great spot to stay, just far enough away that it's quiet and peaceful but close enough that you can walk everything. The staff was very helpful and very kind giving us referrals and restaurants and helping us set up reservations their terrace This bar/restaurant area is beautiful with an amazing view. The pool was great to hang out in with an awesome view. And the room itself was very nice with a little balcony and a great view. Overall a great place to stay I would stay there again

6/10 Good

This was the fifth hotel of our Italy trip and, by far, the most disappointing, despite also being the most expensive The views are beautiful and the location is great, but that’s about where the positives end. The bed was the most uncomfortable we’ve ever slept on, with an extremely hard mattress and cheap, scratchy sheets. After housekeeping, there was no water left in the room, which is a small thing but pretty disappointing at this price point. We ordered room service one night, including a salad that was almost entirely croutons and dressing. When my wife called to ask for a replacement, the staff was rude and acted shocked that we even complained. The replacement club sandwich was also drowning in dressing. The beach club was similarly underwhelming. Very minimal service while charging luxury hotel prices for drinks. We stayed at the Grand Hotel Tritone earlier in the trip, paid less, and had an experience that was dramatically better. For the price, this hotel was simply not worth it we would not recommend it

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.

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.

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.

Everything in the rooms were fantastic but I have to say the Breakfast was a very big let down. There is not much of a variety and once it's finished it's finished they don't get replenished. The beach bar and beach beds were nice but for a hotel this high end and expensive I would have expected abit more from the hotel and the toilets need attention at the beach area and needs changing rooms to change bikinis or swim wear. It was 35 degrees and once you don't have water they don't give you free daily water they say if you want water they expect you to pay 4 euros for water.

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. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
