Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Villa Sofia, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request

Additionally, rooms on higher floors may have a better view of the surrounding area.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the ground floor, as they may be noisier due to the main entrance and possible street noise. Also, be aware that some rooms have walk-in showers, so if you prefer a bathtub, request a room with this feature.

Find train tickets →Napoli Centrale (Garibaldi bus stop) → Positano (Sponda or Chiesa Nuova stop)
💡 Buy tickets at the tabacchi shop inside the station, not from the driver. Ask the driver to stop at 'La Tavolozza' — it's a short walk downhill from the Chiesa Nuova stop, but save yourself the hike up.
Naples International Airport (NAP) → Residence La Tavolozza, Positano
💡 Book a shared shuttle through Positano Shuttle or Grassi for about €60 per person instead. The drive along the Amalfi Coast is spectacular, so ask for a front seat if you can.
Naples Centrale Station → Sorrento station, then SITA bus to Positano (Sponda stop)
💡 Buy a combined ticket from the Sorrento tabacchi — the bus from Sorrento to Positano is packed in summer, so grab a seat early. For Residence La Tavolozza, get off at Sponda stop and walk down the steps — it's steep but saves the 500-metre uphill from Chiesa Nuova.
Naples Molo Beverello (ferry port) → Positano piers (Sporthus or La Porta)
💡 The ferry drops you right at Positano's beach — a 10-minute walk up steps to Residence La Tavolozza. It's worth it for the sea views alone. Verify timetables with Caremar or NLG on the day; they change monthly.

💡 Combine this with a walk up to the higher streets for free views of the cliffs; the trail is unmarked but starts near the head of Via Marconi.
💡 Take the path from the church down to Fornillo – it's a 15-minute walk and saves you paying for deckchairs on the main beach.
💡 Visit early morning to catch the light through the stained glass; avoid the mass service between 8–9am if you want to take photos.
💡 Arrive before 9am to snag a spot on the free public sand; after that, you'll be squeezed in among paid loungers.
💡 Start in Bomerano (take the SITA bus from Positano) and walk downhill to Nocelle; this saves you the steep climb at the end.
