It all began in 1955 when the Aonzo family built a Mediterranean villa on the plot of land nestling in the shade of orange and lemon trees overlooking the Bay of Positano, which is now the Hotel Poseidon.

The Hotel Poseidon is an exclusive property with 48 rooms and two suites – each with a private terrace and magnificent sea view. The hospitality – on which the Aonzo family has prided itself for 50 years – is discreet and personal. The décor of the rooms, with their terracotta-tiled floors and wrought iron railings, is in the finest local style. The town centre and the beach are both nearby while a fresh-water swimming pool is situated above the scenic garden terrace – a particularly pleasant place to relax with a drink.

The superb lunches and dinners in the hotel’s fine restaurant are memorable, offering delicious, traditional Neapolitan fare. The Poseidon also has a beauty centre that is more than a mere beauty salon or gym but perfectly embodies the hotel’s philosophy And offers Turkish bath, massage and personalized beauty treatments for the face and body.
