Rooms with sea views
B&B Venus Inn offers double and triple rooms, each with a private bathroom, air conditioning, a minibar, and free Wi-Fi. All rooms include a panoramic terrace with table and chairs, some overlooking the sea or Positano. The simple furnishings and fresh air conditioning make the rooms comfortable during summer.
Breakfast on the terrace
A daily breakfast is served on the main terrace or in-room, featuring croissants, yogurt, fruit, ham, cheese, jams, and local products. Coffee, tea, and juice are also provided. The terrace offers views of the Amalfi Coast.
Explore the Amalfi Coast
Guests can take day trips by ferry or bus to Amalfi, Ravello, Sorrento, Pompeii, Capri, and Ischia. Nearby attractions include the Path of the Gods (2 km away) and Fornillo Beach (0.5 km). Boat rentals and guided tours to sea caves and historic sites are available.
Easy transport access
The B&B is a 15-minute walk from Positano's main bus stop (Chiesa Nuova). Ferries connect to Naples, Salerno, Capri, and Amalfi. From Naples Airport, take the Curreri shuttle to Sorrento, then the SITA bus to Positano. Taxis and porters can assist with luggage.
Host assistance & extras
Owner Gippy provides maps, ferry schedules, and local tips. Self-check-in is available, with luggage storage for early arrivals or late departures. Discounts apply for longer stays, and some rooms include a small kitchenette.
“I think this is a great pick. The location near Fornillo Beach makes it ideal for a Positano escape, and the owner clearly prioritizes a personal touch. I appreciate that you can anticipate a proper breakfast on that terrace, plus those views? Stunning.”
