OMG, I have nothing but great things to say about this apartment! Davide & Titina are the most wonderful/caring hosts we've ever had. Davide communicates fairly well in English and we enjoyed his tales of growing up in Positano, as well, watching him take such pride in his garden. We got to enjoy fresh tomatoes and basil from his garden and told us to help ourselves whenever we wanted.
If you have mobility issues, it might be a tad difficult for you to manage the 75 stairs leading up to the apt from the road. Davide, even at 87, insisted on carrying my carry-on suitcase up the stairs when we checked-in, he's such an inspiration to us all.
We loved sitting on the terrace and not only is the view spectacular, but it gets shade in the afternoon. When we got tired of the crowds down around the beach/pier, we would take the Interno Positano bus back up and sit on the terrace enjoying our lunch/dinner & cocktails.
The kitchen had everything you need to prepare meals, only thing missing is a toaster. The bed is 2 singles put together and was very comfortable. There is a lot of closet and dresser space for your clothes. I guess the only negative thing I would mention is, the road below can be fairly noisy with scooters zipping around, so bring ear plugs if you're a light sleeper.
Again, this has to be one of the best places we've ever rented and Davide made it even more special.
I highly recommend renting this place if you don't mind being higher up in Positano.

Staying at Casa Orazio will give you the most authentic and lovely Positano experience.
Davide, our host, was kind and helpful in getting us settled and giving us a few insights and suggestions.
The home is clean and spacious with a gorgeous sea view from the sizeable terrace. There are plenty of amenities to enjoy a cup of coffee at home in the morning or prepare a meal as well. Although the number of stairs you will scale daily is daunting, we loved being away from the tourist traps near town center and the docks because it allowed us to branch out by trying some different restaurants and markets. I would surely recommend this spot to anyone for a stay in Positano, and would personally return for a stay.

We very much enjoyed our stay. The caretaker was a beautiful man who kindly shared fresh vegetables from his garden with us.
The location is quite high up and to get to the beach is about 500 steps, apart from that, it was a beautiful place and lovely neighbourhood.

We stayed 11 nights in Casa Orazio and enjoyed our home away from home in this incredibly beautiful town. We will never forget the amazing views, we spent so much time on the terrace. We cooked frequently, the kitchen was very functional. We would definitely return to Casa Orazio.
Davide and Titina were exceptionally welcoming and generous hosts, we have never experienced this level of hospitality in self catering accommodation before.
Booking with Summer In Italy was so easy and they provided comprehensive information for travelling to the accommodation and much more plus any other information you may need.

Our one-week stay at Casa Orazio was wonderful. The house is just as described on the Summer In Italy website. The views from the living room, bedroom and terrace are great. The kitchen is well-equipped and fully functional. The bed and furniture are comfy, the heating works well, and we never felt cramped for space.
The house is very close to Chiesa Nuova and to the "trail-head" (stairs) on Via Corvo for the sentiero that ascends the slope to Santa Maria del Castello. It is a lovely 45-minute walk on Via Corvo to reach Montepertuso. There is a bus stop on the road directly below the house (75 steps down) so you can get to Piazza dei Mulini in less than 10 minutes. Or you can walk there in 10 minutes if you are OK with steps. I walked up from Piazza dei Mulini to the house several times using the stairs, it takes 10-15 minutes.
Davide was an excellent host, helping us arrange for baggage transportation from the ferry pier and providing directions so we could reach the house using the Positano Interno bus. He also guided us on our first trip to the nearby small grocery store "
Non Solo Frutta Positano" which provided everything we needed for meals at home. It's 5 minutes' walk, 70 stairway steps up and down.
Summer In Italy provided good communication and service, and the best vacation rental that met our needs at a reasonable price.

Our stay at Casa Orazio was AMAZING!! There are a lot of stairs but honestly in Positano there aren't many places that do not have stairs.
Davide is an EXCELLENT host, explained all the ins/outs of the area and the place to us at length and even gave us a local history lesson and cooking lesson.
We had so much fun talking and drinking wine on the terrace as well as the space being very clean and the bed and pillows were by far the most comfortable we had during our Italy trip. Thank you Davide for an excellent time and for being such a gracious host!

Right by the bus stop if you are busing from the beach although the walk isn’t too bad.

Take my advice and use the interior Positano bus and don't try to be a hero and walk up the stairs. It's hard. Once you get used to the bus system this apartment is in the perfect location. Close to some local bars and the view is stunning. The view from the private patio is why you get this place.

Amazing view of Positano
Amazing view of Positano! We loved our stay here and would recommend.
Apartment is nice and spacious with all amenities and the balcony view is beautiful! Note there are a lot of stairs if you are planning to walk to the beach/town centre but there are buses available with bus stops very close to the apartment. To get to the apartment you also need to walk up stairs so pack lightly. We walked everywhere and loved our time here. :)

We had a wonderful stay in Davide and Titina's apartment
We had a wonderful stay in Davide and Titina's apartment. They were extremely gracious hosts and the apartment was very comfortable. Having a balcony to sit and enjoy the view was a plus, as well as for hanging laundry. We prepared a couple of meals and found the kitchen to be well-stocked with utensils. Thank you for a memorable stay in beautiful Positano.

All the guests before us have already said how enjoyable is the house and its terrace, and how kind are Davide and his wife [the owners].
We will add that the house is located in a charming area with a church at the top. The location was perfect to reach the center by bus but also the second beach (Fornillo Beach), on foot in less than 20 minutes all the way down the stairs.

This rental was excellent
This rental was excellent! It was spacious, clean, and pretty! The bedroom and bathroom felt like a large treat compared to some of the tiny places we have stayed in Europe! We highly recommend that you stay here.
The home is up in the town of Positano, but you are rewarded handsomely with peace and quiet, as well as a BEAUTIFUL view.
A bus does stop nearby (if you want to complete the circle of the Interno route - it moves in one circular direction) and can cut out some of the stairs, but as there are MANY areas of Positano you cannot get to without using the stairs (such as the BEACH!). To scale through the middle of town in discreet stairways is often worth the shortcuts.
Davide [the owner] maintains a beautiful property and an amazing garden, and is so kind. Everything was perfect, Davide. Thank you for making our first trip to Italy so enjoyable.
I enjoyed that Summer In Italy really knows the renters well and facilitates a meaningful transaction.

However, what made our stay truly special was the warmth and generosity of the owner, Davide. He is a truly special human being who we now consider to be a a friend.

It was an amazing 5 days in Positano and the location is unreal here
It was an amazing 5 days in Positano and the location is unreal here. We're next to a bar that sells pastries, sandwiches and drinks as well as one of the best restaurants we ate at the entire trip next door to us. The space is large, so you don't feel overly packed in and was nice to enjoy multiple rooms in the house.
It was a great experience, with seamless booking and directions to the place were very clear.
