The beautiful Positano
Nowadays, it is a very popular place and therefore sometimes very crowded. That's why let's fantasize about the possibility of being millionaires and to enjoy what it has to offer away from the hustle and bustle of the tourist. In homage to the mythical rich garment, poor garment of S Fashion , we present two opposing and complementary Positanos.
HOW TO GET?
To begin with, there are two ways to get to the place. You can enjoy the incredible view of the coast taking a ferry from Salerno , with a strategic stop in Amalfi, for twelve euros the journey and a good use of the camera is guaranteed. Or it can be done a three-hour private tour from Capri, with no other traveling companions than whom each one chooses. Some use them for marriage proposals; because having money doesn't exempt anyone from being cheesy. And the views are the same.
WHERE TO SLEEP?
** Le Sirenuse. ** The Marchesi were four Neapolitan brothers with a summer house and a common dream. In the 1950s they converted the property into a luxurious hotel with sea views . The last survivor of the founding members, Franco, lived until January 2015. Now it is his son who maintains the family business, which does not detract from those around him when looking for a photogenic landscape to immortalize with the long-suffering camera . Unlike other luxury hotels in Positano, it is in the center of the city, a very short distance from the beach , instead of being far away at the top of the hill.
Hotel Le Sirenuse
** Hotel Villa Della Palme **. This Bed & Breakfast is also a family business where they treat you as if you were a member of it. Juliana and Manuela run the place. Does it just because of the name make you want to be given breakfast? It also has the typical beach restaurants right next door.
WHERE TO BUY?
**Antonello della Mura. ** This local designer left his hometown for a while to graduate from the prestigious London school Central Saint Martin's. He later returned to Positano to set up his boutique, where he sells his scarves, foulards and silk garments . On Via del Saracino 36.
** Artigianato Rallo. ** Several generations of the family make sandals by hand in this establishment on Viale Pasitea 54. Everything in it is cared for in detail and craftsmanship. They make them for you on the spot (in less than 40 minutes) so you can wear them. More luxury than luxury itself.
WHERE TO EAT?
** Da Adolfo has been serving lunch and dinner since the sixties.** The kind with spaghetti bolognese, tiramusu and delicious mozzarella. Menus of the day for less than 20 euros in via Laurito 40. It's not luxury, but it's charming and you can eat well.
** The hotel Il San Pietro di Positano ** has a Michelin star restaurant. Zass offers unbeatable views and Mediterranean cuisine on his menu. A beach restaurant pug , completes the almost unbeatable offer in the area.
Cortecce tone and pomodorini
WHERE TO DRINK?
In the 60s and 70s there was no celebrity in the world that did not go through the ** Africana club .** From Rudolf Nureyev, Aristotle Onassis and Jackie Kennedy on down. For that reason alone, it is still VIP meat after its recent reopening.
Da Ferdinando, on the other hand, is a traditional CHIRINGUITO with the beach next to it (the Fornillo). From those of cheap snacks to take away your appetite at mealtime. Quaint, somewhat retro, charming and adored by many.
