If Le Sirenuse represents old-world Positano elegance, Il San Pietro is its slightly wilder counterpart. Built into the cliff face just south of town, the hotel is reached by a road that descends through the rock to a lobby perched above the sea, and a private lift drops guests to a beach club at water level.

The rooms are individually designed, many with private terraces over the water, and the botanical gardens, tended by the founding family since the 1970s, supply herbs and vegetables to the kitchen. It is the kind of place that earns fiercely loyal return visitors.

Doubles start from around EUR 700. The cliffside setting involves lifts and steps, so ask about access if mobility is a concern.
