Hotel Vittoria was an INCREDIBLE boutique hotel that blew all expectations!! It’s was delightful staying somewhere with a limited number of rooms. We were in room 82 which had the largest outdoor terrace. Huge shoutout to Roberta. She worked the desk almost every night of our stay. She was incredible helpful and kind.
The hotel serves a great complementary breakfast each morning. I typically made a plate and brought it back to my wife where we enjoyed it in our private terrace. They will make you coffee as well. In the evening they will also serve you any type of alcohol drink.
The hotel is not accessible by car. We parked before approaching the hotel in a shared lot. The hotel then had two porters help get our luggage from the car park to the hotel. All extremely seamless.
Being on Fornilla beach was a blessing. The one day we adventured to Positano down town was a harsh reality. There were SO many people - it was extremely congested and chaotic. As soon as we got back to Fornilla beach area. there was a sigh of relief. All of the restaurants were much less crowded. We enjoyed all 4 beach restaurants (down from the hotel). You just take their internal elevator to the lowest floor. This actually saves your some 250 steps. From the base level you are looking at another some 200 steps to reach the beach. The entire Positano area requires stairs. These beach restaurants “shacks” were some of our favorite spots!
You will NOT be disappointed booking here. Extremely fair pricing with a great “home” like feeling. To the hotel management team, job WELL done!!
Side note: we brought a sound machine which I would recommend. There seems to be a lot of dogs barking throughout morning and day time. This has nothing to do with the hotel as there are a lot of private homes. Just figured I would share this information :)
Also: there is another elevator that does not work. It seemed some reviews said it’s possible to take a second external elevator in order to avoid the some 200 steps to the beach. This is officially a non-working elevator. Would be great if they ever decided to fix this. Although I’m sure it’s a costly endeavor.
