Casa Mandara B&B

Lovely owner who was very kind and helpful. Beautiful view from the balcony.

The breakfast could be improved.

Nothing.

Absolutely horrible stay. We alerted the owner that we were being kept up all night by someone in her home, which is attached to the room we were staying in. I attached a photo of the door leading to their home. It was locked and I assumed it was a storage closet. No where on the description does it include that you’re staying in a room attached to a home. We were already not enjoying our stay or feeling comfortable, when I brought it to Maria’s attention. She denied any noises and took zero accountability. Yet, after texting her, the noise and music magically stopped. Then when I asked her about the review that was left by a previous traveler (from two weeks prior) who alleged they experienced BED BUGS, she came off quite upset. She said she would refund us for two out of the three nights and NEVER did. I do not recommend staying here at all. They are so far up on the hill, you have to climb hundreds of steps to get to the town and restaurants. Also, we stayed in the heat of the summer and the air conditioning unit hardly spit out any air. It was hot and humid. There were ants coming into the room (photos shown). Horrible!

Pepe was helpful, we really liked going down to the beach and seeing the town a little bit. Dinner was also accommodating. The property was cute and very easy to get to except for the stairs, lol. That’s Italy for you, lol

Amazing views

All those stairs lol

Casa Mandara is definitely worth the view you get every morning, hosts are super welcoming and helpful, breakfast was a great touch, and the rooms are very comfotable.

As mentioned in previous comments you have to be ready to go up some stairs to reach the accomodation, or get a taxi to the top of the stairs, but this is in a lot of places in Positano

We stayed for three nights and had a wonderful experience. The room looked exactly like the pictures — bright, clean, and comfortable, with a very cozy bed. Breakfast was served on the terrace each morning with a stunning view over Positano. We loved that you could choose between a sweet or savory breakfast, and everything was fresh and delicious. Another big plus is the location — the SITA bus stop is only about a 4-minute walk away, and you don’t have to climb too many stairs to reach the accommodation, which is a real bonus in Positano. Pepe was an excellent host — very responsive via WhatsApp and always ready to help. We also joined him for a Vespa sunset tour, which turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip! We couldn’t have asked for a better stay and would absolutely recommend this place to anyone visiting Positano.
