Then slip on your walking shoes to descend the 1,000-step path down to the sea where the idyllic Fiordo di Furore and its magical beach await. In the evenings, fire up the barbecue for an alfresco feast under the pergola and watch the sunset over the horizon while you sip a glass of crisp white wine.

There, not only will you find bags of typical Italian charm, but a wealth of lovely cafés where you can watch the world go by with an aromatic cup of energising espresso, authentic trattoria serving out-of-this-world pasta, seafood, and meat dishes accompan...

In the sun-soaked village of Positano, this studio apartment is a peaceful idyll within walking distance of the lively shores of Positano Beach. Inside, it’s all crisp white and cobalt blue.

Thanks to the sea-facing terrace, you'll be able to enjoy the latter without leaving home. With the sea as a backdrop, it's the perfect spot for a morning espresso or a Limoncello Spritz.

There's something rather magical about the view from this apartment nestled within a private park in Positano – ruggedly beautiful cliffsides peppered with dwellings part to reveal a burst of gloriously blue Tyrrhenian Sea and the uninterrupted skyline beyond. It makes for a charming backdrop while you soak up the sunshine or enjoy alfresco meals on the terrace. Although the apartment itself lies on the smaller side of things, we're quite fond of the bright and contemporary design, particularly the sleek white galley kitchen and the fetching patterned tiling underfoot in the bedrooms. It's a home that's been owned by the same family for more than three decades, but you can certainly tell that it's received plenty of attention in recent years. The local town of Positano itself isn't large, so most of the attractions are easily reachable on foot, including the golden sands of Spiaggia Grande Positano only 400 metres from the front door....

A less beaten path than its neighbouring town of Positano, this is the place to be if you're looking for authentic Italian appeal.

This traditional apartment doesn’t have much of a socialising space, with the main communal area being the relatively compact kitchen. Still, both bedrooms are spacious, light-filled, and offer direct access to the balcony. And what it lacks in size and shared space inside, it makes up for with sea views across the Amalfi Coast when you step outdoors. You’ll need to be relatively fit to climb around fifty stairs to reach the apartment from the narrow alleyway below, but the vistas are worth it. *There are fifty steps leading up to the front door here, via an external staircase from the narrow alleyway below. It might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility. *Air conditioning is available in the bedrooms only. *The traditional decor here might not be to everyone's taste.

Positano is one of the most beautiful towns to be found along the Amalfi Coast and if you don't believe us, stepping out onto the balcony of this hillside home and gazing out at the gorgeous view of the locale below and the Tyrrhenian Sea stretching on into the distance will change your mind. As well as this impressive outdoor space, you might just find that you're charmed by the living quarters as well. There's something about the whitewashed walls and patterned tiling that's instantly bright and welcoming, as is the addition of a few pieces of nautically-inspired artwork and quirky decorative items. The kitchen might not be the largest, but there's enough space for whipping up modest meals and the coastal view out through the window will please those on cooking duties. When it comes to making some holiday memories, both Grande and Fornillo beaches are 650 metres from the home, and there's a good selection of restaurants even closer....
A stay on the Amalfi Coast wouldn’t be complete without a view, and this one won’t disappoint. Sitting on the edge of Praiano’s cliffs, you can enjoy the vistas from every vantage point. It’s not surprising that with a cliffside location, you’ll need to climb some steps – there are 160 between the parking area and 240 down to the sea. And while the interiors are on the more basic side, the outside space is where you’ll want to settle, with a pool, a lounge and an alfresco dining area. And when you're ready for sand, Marina di Praia can be reached on foot, by car or by public bus. *Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. Though if you choose not to, there's a bus stop 400m away which transports you to all the major small towns of the Amalfi Coast. *There are 160 steps from the main road going down to the villa – this is unlikely to suit those with limited mobility. *The swimming pool is ...

There’s also sun loungers so you can work on your tan. Inside, you’ll find a gorgeous blue and white colour scheme throughout to remind you of the sea, as well as little decor touches that make it feel like home.
