Positively Positano

“Positano bites deep. It is a dream place that isn’t quite real when you are
there and becomes beckoningly real after you are gone”
~John Steinbeck
I feel as though I am just now waking from the dream that was my trip to Positano, Italy. It was, in a word, amazing. It was my first visit to this breathtaking region and Positano did not disappoint.
Getting to Positano involved a drive on mountain roads replete with hairpin turns. Yet with each curve, a new breathtaking vista came into view. Driving here is not for the beginner or the faint of heart!
Located along the Amalfi Coast, Positano’s dramatically steep seaside cliffs and stunning views greet you as you arrive. The town of Positano is tucked into the mountains and presents a dramatic vertical panorama of colors; houses in pastel pinks and yellows, the sunbathed shades of ivory limestone and of course the incredible blue of the sea. With this unique geography, steps nearly replace roads in Positano–with over 400 from the beach to our villa!
Positano is full of charm and was the perfect backdrop for a vacation with my gal pals Tina and Gina. And yes, during the trip I changed my name to Pina–it seemed only fitting!
More inspiration and photos to come!
