I want to Thank Carmella , Alessia, Fabrizio and Sandro. Besides your wonderful hotel you are even more wonderful people and made us feel like family. Our stay was much too short , everything was perfect. Ciao.

I booked this online and it was the perfect place! Clean, friendly and an unbelievable view! The location could not be better, close to shopping, close to buses and close to the beach. There are a lot of shops all around without having to walk a ton of stairs and also very short walk to the main buses, that take you to almafi, revello, sorrento and other great places! I will come back for sure and highly recommend Villa La Tartana!

Thank you for a wonderful time! I want to compliment your staff and especially Alessio! She was amazing! She was very friendly and informative! Out of our entire trip all over Italy, Alessio was the friendliest and most helpful! Please tell her thank you!

Thank you so very much to all for such an amazing stay!! I specially want to thank Alessia and Carmela for their high standard in servicing. this is truly a five star hotel!!! rooms were beautiful, attention to details is eveywhere to be seen, Rosario's coffee is the best we had in our entire trip in Italy. We will definitely come back to our home away from home little gem!!

I enjoyed four wonderful days at Villa La Tartana. Lovely helpful staff, spotlessly clean and spacious room, beautiful view whilst eating breakfast or enjoying a coffee. Tartana is very central to the main hub of Positano. They also recommended excellent places to go and also a restaurant that sent transport to and from Tartana. Highly recommended, would stay again.

vorrei complimentarmi con voi per la serietà e disponibilità ricevuta,sono stato molto bene vostro ospite,come è possibile vorrei tornare,e non mancherò di consigliare il vostro hotel ai miei amici e saluto e un grazie

Siamo stati tre notti in questo albergo e siamo rimasti veramente soddisfatti. Eravamo con la nostra bambina di due anni e quindi ci hanno gentilmente sistemato in una camera al piano terra per non fare le scale, era molto bella con un antibalcone con un divano davanti la grande vetrata e un balcone con vista sul mare molto bello. La posizione è perfetta poichè si trova proprio nel centro pedonale a due minuti dalla spiaggia, due minuti molto piacevoli attraversando le vie piene di bei negozi di Positano. Molto pulito, colazione buona e personale gentile. Cosa chiedere di più?

3 anni fa, per puro caso, io e il mio ragazzo abbiamo trovato posto a Villa la Tartana....e grazie a questo incantevole albergo Positano ci è rimasta nel cuore...E' tutto perfetto...dal terrazzino della camera vedi il mare, la cupola della chiesa, i viottoli brulicanti di gente e addobbati con abiti e infradito di ogni genere...Le camere, finemente arredate, sono bianche, fresche, pulite! Per 3 anni consecutivi siamo tornati e, speriamo, di farcela anche quest'anno... Positano è un presepe vivente...è magia...è poesia... e da ogni vicolo tutto ciò traspira, tanto da renderla uno dei posti più affascinanti del mondo.... Villa La Tartana ha una posizione invidiabile e per qualità-prezzo è ottima. Carmela è sempre stata gentilissima ed è bello, ogni anno, sapere di ritrovarla! Spesso, quando qui da noi è freddo e nevica, pensiamo alla ns Positano e a quanto bene stiamo nel "nostro alberghetto" ....Abbiamo fatto la recensione un pò in ritardo rispetto alla ns ultima visita (agosto 2011), ma è sempre talmente bello venire a trovarvi che sembra ieri che siamo stati lì! Grazie alla vostra cordilaità rendete questo posto ancora più bello! Fernando e Ottavia. Belluno

Charming Small Hotel Guide

Deliciously fresh and clean, with simple bedrooms that feel good to wake up in and are a joy to come home to. Villa Tartana, a modern pensione, with extensive renovations in 2010, has made a terrific addition to the hotel scene in Positano since it opened in 2000. 
 The twelve comfortable rooms are all decorated similarly with a strong sea-blue colour scheme that contrasts the white walls. Most have sea views and balconies. Our reporter said that the breakfast is delightful, a 'continental' is served unless otherwise asked, however a full-English is available, and it can be served in your room while you gaze wistfully over the Mediterranean Sea. Owner, Beniamino Caldiero, may be young, but he has the touch.

The Villa La Tartana, owned by the same delightful owners of the Villa Rosa, deserves more than a full page write-up. Very different than the Villa Rosa, which is located high above on the hillside above the main road of town, the Tartana is down at the seaside where one has easier access to restaurants, ferries to Capri, stores, and lounging on the popular beach. A three-story white house snuggled in between others, the bed & breakfast offers comfortable rooms each with its own terrace, many amenities, and the warm hospitality of the Caldiero family. In keeping with the seaside ambiance, local hand-painted tiles from Vietri are used in cool blue tones throughout. A main living room with bright, yellow sofas and colorful paintings of nautical themes is where guests are greeted and daily itineraries are arranged to Amalfi, Sorrento, or Ravello. The best way to get a real taste of Positano is to rent a gozzo boat (with or without a skipper) and view the dramatic coastline from the sea, stopping to swim at various beaches and coves or lunching at one of the delectable, waterside trattorias serving pasta with seafood and other local specialties.
