“Truly sublime views of Positano and beyond from this 5* hotel's hilltop perch. Romantic rooms in chic whites and creams with tiled mosaics and wonderful sea views from private balconies. The roof top terrace and swimming pool are equally magnificent. A great choice for romantics.”

Hotel review

Set dizzyingly high in the cliffside, the Villa Franca is in a prime location to offer some truly sublime views of Positano and beyond, particularly from its wonderful rooftop terrace (with pool). The sleek public area, with its cool blue and white colour scheme and high arches, is smart yet comfortable with inviting armchairs and a chic bar. Attractive bedrooms have impressive tiled mosaics and modern bathrooms, and the best enjoy sweeping sea views from their balconies.

Hotel Villa Franca

"It is set high up on the cliffside with what must be the highest hotel pool in Positano, and offers a stylish, contemporary boutique atmosphere, excellent service, lots of attention to detail and superb food."
