Il San Pietro di Positano

Carved into the cliffs of the Amalfi Coast, Il San Pietro has been lovingly run by the Cinque family for generations. Here you will find luxury combined with a personal, familial touch. Everything about this hotel is breathtaking, from the seventeenth-century chapel marking the entrance to the fresh private-manor style of the interiors. Then, of course, there are the sea views — molto bella! The guest rooms are sumptuous, with tile floors, glass walls, whirlpool tubs and Oriental rugs. Although Positano may beckon, you'll most likely spend your days adrift in the pool, lazing in the private beach cove, indulging in spa treatments or cruising the coast on a complimentary tour in the hotel's private yacht. As for when the day is through, candlelight dining at the restaurant showcases seasonal dishes and classic Italian cuisine.
