This spacious accommodation is an excellent choice for a group which wants some privacy and also the chance to be together in one place.

Torre Positano is a perfect place for groups or specially for 3 families, as it is made of three different parts, each with its own fully equipped kitchen and living rooms. The result is an awe-inspiring, four-level pentagonal residence, with a subterranean level built right into the rock.

The complete symbiosis between the architectural structure and its environment, where each one enhance the other, is not only expressed in the layout of this unique property, but as well in the choice of materials, colors and light where every detail is essential to this harmony. This results in interior and exterior being just a matter of definition! The appealing decor and unique layout, with its many corridors, stairs and terraces, is most suitable for those looking for an authentic Italian holiday without pretense or affectation. The picture is completed by an exceptional staff whose love and dedication to this property will make them an essential part to your perfect holiday.

You can arrive at the Torre by water taxi directly from the main beach, or on foot, crossing the beach at Fornillo and taking the staircase to the private entrance gate and path. There are three principal terraces and furthermore a private descent on a characteristic narrow staircase to the sunny beach.
