“Dimora Del Podesta struck me as an exceptional B&B, cleverly positioned on Positano's main road for stress-free access. Breakfast on the balcony, paired with those views, is a strong opening act. I think its blend of genuine hospitality, spacious rooms, and that family-owned restaurant downstairs makes it a smart choice.”
