Hotel Review: Hotel Marincanto in Positano, Italy | Romantic Honeymoon Hotel in the Amalfi Coast


My husband and I got married at the Borgo Tre Rose in Tuscany, Italy, and knew we wanted to honeymoon on the Amalfi Coast. When picking out our honeymoon location, I found myself gawking at the views online of Positano. That had to be the place.

We booked the honeymoon suite at Hotel Marincanto, and it was perfect for us. It included a gorgeous view of the Mediterranean Ocean overlooking Positano, an indoor hot tub, breakfast every morning, and wonderful service in a central location. When viewing the hotel online, there are many unique rooms and suites to choose from, and I hope to stay there again in the future!

We took the train from Florence to Naples, and I had prearranged for Hotel Marincanto to book us a private transfer that was waiting for us at the train station. It was a 1.5-hour drive from Naples station to the hotel, with stunning views of Mount Vesuvius in the distance and the coastal cliffs.

Upon arrival in Positano, we were greeted with a complimentary fresh lemonade in the lobby and had our luggage taken to our honeymoon suite. Our room featured beautiful decor with classic blue and white Mediterranean tile and a large balcony where we could watch the boats roll in throughout the day.

The hotel has its own private beach area, a stunning pool, meticulous landscaping, and several lounging areas. Just be mindful that there are a lot of steps down to the beach, this is true across all of Positano because it’s built on a giant cliff. We didn’t mind the walking too much, but just be aware beforehand!

We spent a lot of our time relaxing on site and strolling around Positano itself. The hotel also has an amazing restaurant that we conveniently dined at a couple of times, including a wonderful apperitivo hour with lovely cocktails. Plus, the views at night are spectacular.

Hotel Marincanto is centrally located so we could walk into Positano for dinners, shopping, and to catch the ferry to other ports. While we stayed every night in Positano, we were able to take day trips to Capri and Amalfi to explore the coast. Next time, I definitely want to go to Pompeii and see the ruins. This tour and wine tasting looks perfect!
