Hotel Villa Ambra

The hotel building was very nice, newly reconstructed rooms with pretty balconies, which were shared with other customers. The cleaning service was exceptional, I have never seen such clean floor, and the hotel was right on the sandy beach! Well, the price (200 € per night for 2) was not adequate beacause of these facts: It is a 3 star hotel with no pool BUT you have this nice (although a bit dirty) sandy beach with hotel sunbeds and umbrellas. Had we known the fact, that you have to pay 30 € (40 € if you choose the first row) for umbrella and 2 sunbeds as a hotel customer, we would have booked a much cheaper option. The price of the sunbeds is not what made angry, but the fact that the price is exactly the same if you decide to book umbrella with sunbeds from another provider (and there are many paid umbrellas around Gianella) whether you are hotel host or not. Prices for parking were normal, luckily. We also decided to try the famous dinner at this hotel. It was really delicious and the dishes were not micro, but you need to try at least two courses to get full. The prices for a la carte were also fair. Now let's move to the breakfast - the hotel staff was really kind and we loved the cappucino, but over all there were not many options to choose from (again - nothing bad, but given the price you pay, it was below average). The last day we tried a ham, that was already stale and smelt, which should not happen.

Ambra was a very gracious host during our stay in Positano during the summer of 2022. The villa is located in a beautiful location overlooking gorgeous views of the Tyrrhenian Sea. The herb and vegetable garden at the base of the villa has all the ingredients you need to make a great home cooked meal. The access to the garage was also very convenient. The villa is located near a alimentari where you can purchase all your essentials for your stay. Get in shape for your stay, lots of stairs to climb if you want to enjoy Positano.
