Il San Pietro di Positano

11 Hotels With Sports Facilities for Fun, Active Holidays | Condé Nast Traveler

"Working out at this leafy outdoor gym in Positano turns treadmill runs and stationary bike rides into a dreamy experience, with lemon trees surrounding the equipment and scintillating Amalfi Coast views unfolding from the hotel’s clifftop perch. Reserved exclusively for hotel guests and open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., the space is particularly enchanting at sunrise and sunset, when Positano glows and boats drift across the sparkling water below. The combination of fresh air, lush greenery, and sweeping sea vistas transforms a standard gym routine into something both memorable and transportive." - Rana Good

High Drama in the Seaside Hotels of the Amalfi Coast

"A small 17th-century chapel devoted to San Pietro marks the entrance, and the rest of the property hangs on the cliffside below, each level descending the face like a staircase to offer unparalleled views of the sea from every room and every terrace. Built just one room deep, there are no inferior views; each room hugs the cliff at its back and opens onto a private terrace at the front." - The MICHELIN Guide

"The legendary San Pietro hotel is one of the world's most celebrated, the jewel of Positano and the Amalfi Coast. Within its illustrious walls lies this restaurant whose tremendous success (book considerably in advance is advised), aside from its undoubtedly enchanting location, owes much to the expertise of Belgian Chef Alois Vanlangenaeker, who has been here for over 20 years. His cuisine harmoniously and elegantly narrates the strength, fragrances, and flavours of the Mediterranean, primarily using the Campanian language that remains pure in tradition as the meal begins with a freshly baked Margherita pizza, gradually enriched by pleasant creative notes within the dishes. The property's organic garden is increasingly making its presence felt in a menu of both land and, predominantly, sea-focused options. The emblematic San Pietro dish is a masterpiece, lemon scented and accompanied by buffalo yogurt potato puree, seasonal vegetables, and the house’s renowned Champagne and truffle sauce. Opting not to take the lift to the main hall is recommended—instead, treat yourself to a spectacular descent through gardens, statues, and mesmerizing vistas of one of Italy’s most famous hotels." - Michelin Inspector
