At the centre of Positano, Le Sirenuse occupies a former family residence whose red façade and terraces look across the stepped town towards the Li Galli islands. Rooms and suites retain tiled floors, antiques, white walls and private balconies, with the sea visible between domes and clustered houses. La Sponda glows beneath hundreds of candles and climbing plants, joined by Aldo’s, the oyster bar and a terrace pool suspended above the coast. The spa and compact public rooms preserve the scale of a private home, filled with collected artworks and books.
