ExperiencesPositano, Amalfi, Ravello

Positano has been a vacation destination since the times of the Roman Empire, as evidenced by the discovery of a villa and recent archaeological findings in 2004. The characteristic maze of “stairways” connecting the heart of the town to the beach offers a charming walk through its wonders. The main beaches, Spiaggia Grande and Fornillo, are easily reachable on foot, while the more secluded ones, like La Porta, Arienzo, and San Pietro Laurito, are primarily accessible by sea. The church dedicated to the Madonna dell’Assunta, with its extraordinary architecture, is considered one of Italy’s most beautiful treasures.

Continuing along the Amalfi Coast, you come across Amalfi, an enchanting corner that captivates visitors with its splendid Arab-Sicilian style cathedral, dedicated to Saint Andrew, the city’s patron. The beaches of Amalfi, except for those directly in the city center, are accessible via long stairways or by sea, offering a unique experience immersed in nature.

In the equally charming Ravello, visitors can admire a hundred altars, about forty of which are still consecrated. The historic palaces of the ancient Ravello families, many of which have become hotels in recent centuries, are mainly located in the noble “rione del Toro” district and stretch from Piazza Fontana to Piazza Duomo, adding a touch of elegance and history to this coastal paradise.

Don’t miss a visit to Villa Rufolo and Villa Cimbrone, the two precious jewels of the city.
