Simply best of the best. Clean, specious, newly renovated, cheap, amazing views and the best customers service offered by owner Gippy and partner. I dont know why people pays a lot of money staying in 5 stars hotels while you can stay in a much better place with fraction of the price like venus inn. The experience of sitting in... more

I have to say there is nothing like staying at a newly renovated B&B!!! The rooms are large and open on to a nice balcony. The bathrooms have also been renovated and the rooms are also complete with fridge and cooktop. Not to mention the service provided by Gippy (the owner) adds that extra bit to make anyones stay at... more

Living in Rome I have the good fortune to get to Positano more often than many of the others on this site and I thank my lucky stars the day I was told about Venus Inn and of course the now famous owner Gippy that you may have heard about in other reviews. Being quite a weekend mini-break traveller I... more

We were happy with our stay at the Venus Inn. It was a hidden jem. The view was awesome! The people who run the lnn were very helpful and friendly. They really encouraged us to get out and explore and helped us get some info on ferry rides etc. It was a clean and quiet place. If we get the... more

My family and I have just returned from a enjoyable 5 day stay at the 'Venus inn' in Positano. On arrival, Gippy (the owner) met us from are taxi out on the road.

Just returned from 8 days at the Venus Inn and loved it. Gippy,the owner, made a real difference with his enthusiasm and advice and was really helpful. Great views - we loved sitting on the terrace and enjoying the beautiful scenery and got takeaway pizzas a couple of nights from a nearby pizzeria - as good a place as any... more

We arrived late at night ant the mismatched sheets and small bathrooms really through us for a whirl. We were not to pleased, but were so exhausted that we just passed out. The next morning was when we discovered how much of a gem this little b&b was...the owner is so friendly and kind - Gippy. Everyone in town knows... more

Stayed here for three nights. Pleasantly surprised to come in to a large double bed room with terrace. The view is beautiful. The only thing we didn't like was that only one person can use the bathroom facilities when showering. No enclosed shower. The breakfast was biscuits and coffee/juice. Location was nice but the drive in was INSANE. Never come... more

The views from the terrace are awesome and Gippy the owner is a very hospitable and colourful Italian who takes genuine delight in every new guest who arrives. Take your breakfast on your own little terrace and discover the backstreets and steps down to Il Fornillo beach where you can swim and enjoy a delicious lunch at the little cafes... more

The Venus Inn is in Fornillo one bay before you get to Positano which is probably a good thing as Positano is very busy especially on the weekends. Fornillo has several great little restaurants an easy walk from the hotel and a little deli also within walking distance. The little local bus runs all the time so getting to and... more
