Would choose this place every time!
If you are arriving here via land (bus, taxi, private transfer), this location is beyond convenient - it's right off the main coastal road and not far from a bus station. If you're arriving via ferry, you will have to climb about 10 minutes of steps (or hire a porter to bring your bags up).
The grocery store next door was nice to have and has good hours. They have a little deli in the back and even some basics like shampoo, bug spray, soap, etc. The workers in there are friendly and helpful. So much to do nearby!
Check in was smooth. Margherita [the caretaker] met us there and showed where things were and how to use everything. She gave us tips on how to get around. She is the sweetest! it really felt like you were staying with family.
AC worked well and so did the washer (theres a drying rack). Shower is a little short because of the curved ceiling, but wasn't a problem for me (5'8" 172 cm) - I'd imagine if you were 6'3"/190 cm + you might have to duck a little. Bed was comfortable.
Thank you for a great stay. We would love to stay again when we return to Positano. We had no issues and wish we could have stayed longer!

Loved Villa Sebastiana A! Very comfortable apartment with all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay.

The colours and sounds of Positano spilled in and out of Villa Sebastiana, thanks mostly to divine host Margherita. The welcome was heart-felt, the touches endless. A veritable garden of Eden in a small but perfectly formed apartment in an equally perfect position. We were cocooned in a mystical environment for a week, which felt both like 2 months and 2 minutes. We’d be delighted to return.

Great location, in Positano this apt looks west so sunlight is on the opposite hillside in the morning and the balcony gets afternoon sun. The market literally 6 steps away was fantastic, which is very friendly family run business.
Margherita was very friendly and explained everything well. It included some kitchen staples and beach towels.

We had a great time in Positano and our stay at Villa Sebastiana A. The location is perfect by being off the busy areas but still at waking distance to downtown and surroundings. The apartment is well equipped, bed is comfortable, and the view from the balcony is beautiful.
We were welcomed by Margherita, who was very friendly and thorough in explaining the amenities, as well as offering recommendations for things to do.
We highly recommend Villa Sebastiana A for your stay in Positano!

This apartment is a 5/5 location, 5/5 view. Managed by a very nice host. The place itself is not small, but the bathrooms are and the deck smaller than it looks. Old school feel/older furnishing but the apartment has everything you need and more when it comes to kitchen ware, appliances, bathroom items etc etc etc. 10-15 minute walk to the down town area and water. Directly next to an awesome little market and close to a bus stop.

A lovely authentic Italian apartment in the perfect location!
The host was so friendly and helpful made our holiday much more stress free and enjoyable.
Luca has been so helpful and took time to take into our needs and find a solution.

Amazing apartment in Positano
This apartment was amazing. The views out of the door in the living room are stunning! The place is clean, nicely furnished, and charming. There's even A/C upstairs and downstairs, and a clothes washer that aren't mentioned in the listing. There's also a grocery store right next door for any wine, snacks or groceries you might need.
It's also relatively close to the beach. You're not right there, but also, you're only about 5 my minutes away. You might want to think about getting a porter for your luggage uphill, though.

Unbelievable view of Positano
We loved our stay at this apartment. The apartment is on street level and the bus stops in front of the door--perfect for a day trip to Pompei. The view from the balcony took our breath away--it was so beautiful. The apartment had everything we wanted--a bed and hide-a-bed couch, dishwasher, 2 toilets, fridge, microwave, clothes washer and drying rack, and of course--the view. The English-speaking homeowner met us at the door and told us how everything worked. We honestly couldn't have hoped for a better stay in Positano. Would love to return.

We had a lovely time in Positano. Villa Sebastiana A was absolutely perfect. It is literally right on the road so it was easy to unload and load our baggage.

I would definitely stay here again!

Experience started very poorly
For some reason, our gps did not function well. When I called the owner/host, I got little help. It was not until we spoke to a lady on the street that we got proper directions. The host was kind enough to go with me to find a parking place, over my insistence that I wanted to park the rental car in a parking garage, the host repeatedly insisted that I park on the street.
There are no written instructions in the house, and the hosts explanations are very difficult to understand.

10/10!!! We spent a wonderful week in Positano. Luca and his mother Margherita helped us check in and showed us everything.
The apartment is AMAZING. It's not too far from the beach and center, the stairs aren't as bad as in other parts of Positano, there's a store right next to it where we bought breakfast and dinner and we were even lucky enough to use the little garden below the apartment because the one below us was free. Fresh tomatoes and lemons for days!
Margherita was the nicest person ever and we absolutely loved this place. Of course, the view was the highlight. Unbelievable!

Our picturesque stay in Positano
Marghareta greeted us at the door. She was friendly, sweet, kind, and very informative. She gave us great recommendations and shared her home grown props from her darling garden! The place was comfortable & cozy with an amazing view! Surroundings areas are quiet. There's a small grocery store literally next door which makes it very convenient. The one downside for us was the upstairs bathroom. The ceiling slopes inward forcing one to duck when using the facilities making it a bit challenging since we're both on the taller side. Otherwise, everything else was great!

This place is clean, beautiful and has spectacular views of Positano and the beach.Beware if you are arriving by ferry its tricky to get your luggage up the steep stairs to the house. Get a porter or figure out the taxi/ bus system.Margherita, the owner, was delightful and it was a pleasure to meet her she helped us order a taxi service and explained the bus system to us which was really helpful and made our stay in Positano pleasant. She also brought us fresh lemons from her garden which was a delicious touch. We ended up making fresh lemonade and it was delicious :)Overall we had a relaxing time here. Enjoy!

The owners were so helpful and included a lot of amenities that you would normally have to buy at the local market (there were water, bread etc waiting for us in the fridge). They also helped with a private parking space for our rental.
I highly recommend Villa Sebastiana A!

A really lovely apartment that had a nice feel about it. Amazing view from the balcony and we enjoyed eating breakfast our there every morning.
Great location, took about 10 mins to walk down to main beach of Positano but a lot of stair back up but lots of little shops to look at on the way. The supermarket next store was so handy and the owner was very friendly and made us an antipasto for our stay.
Air condition both up and downstairs which was great and also loved having a washing machine and dishwasher.
Margherita [the caretaker] was very helpful when we arrived and accommodating for our request for early check in. Would definitely stay there again and recommend to anyone visiting Positano!

Great location next to the shop. The balcony is on a small size but we put two chairs and the table out there and had breakfast every morning, the view from the balcony is amazing.
I would highly recommend and I would definitely stay there again.
Very nice owner, she explained everything and gave advice on the area.
Really good service from Summer In Italy.

The location of this place is phenomenal
The location of this place is phenomenal! Not only is the view amazing (tucked right into the upper hillside), but it was next door to the little grocery store and next to the stairs down to the shops, restaurants and beach. Of course you can walk down the street but the stairs are more direct (and a great workout!).
Mrs Margherita [the caretaker] met us upon arrival. She walked us around the small but cozy two floor apartment. Ground floor is the kitchen, sofa, powder room and little balcony. The second floor has a chair, tv, wardrobe, bed and full bathroom. The bathroom is tucked along the side with a curved ceiling. I’m 5’7 and I fit nicely but over that and you might have to lean here and there when showering. My husband is 5’10 and he was fine with it.The bed is comfortable enough and the cute little windows upstairs allows you to peer out onto Positano.
The weather was nice enough (end of September) that we slept with the windows open and only turned on the A/C when returning back from the warm days walking.
Ms Margherita sets you up with printouts of all the ferry and bus times and answered all of our questions.
We would definitely stay here again! Also to note, leading up to the stay the Summer in Italy team was very helpful and great with communication. Thank you to Mrs. Margherita and the Summer in Italy team for having us!

Villa Sebastiana was perfect for us for our honeymoon
Villa Sebastiana was perfect for us for our honeymoon! We stayed for five nights in June. We enjoyed wine and snacks on the terrace almost every night it’s one of the best views we found.
We are young but not super active so after walking up from the beach the stairs were a little much for us so we took the slightly longer route on the road almost every time. It was not bad though and we got to enjoy the views and walk off all the pasta.
Having the grocery store directly next door was HUGE. We got some wine and fresh sandwiches for lunch a few days and fresh croissants each morning. There is a busy stop right outside which is very nice. The AC units were key as well, there was one upstairs and downstairs.
The owners were so helpful too! We also love Margherita [the caretaker] who greeted us. She gave us some tips and ideas in what to do.
Overall we loved the space especially for the price and would not hesitate to stay here again.

We loved it! It was simple, clean and had everything you would need for your stay.
We were welcomed with home made cakes, limoncello, fruit and salami by the owner and most of the basics for cooking and washing were provided.
The bedroom was a really good size - light and bright.
We would rate it 5 stars for location and for the friendliness and helpfulness of the owner.
We thought the company were easy to deal with and found your instructions to the property really helpful. We would certainly recommend Summer in Italy and the Villa to others and hope to return as soon as possible!

The kind folks at the grocery store next door were wonderful also, and very helpful in providing us food and refreshments, and answering questions that we had. Thank you all so very much!
It was one of the places recommended as a place to stay while attending a family wedding. The pictures and details on the website made it a very appealing choice.

We had a very nice vacation there
We had a very nice vacation there. The landlady, Sig. Margherita, was very nice and very helpful. The view from the balcony is magnificent.
Going down to the beach takes 10 min. Coming back up again takes about 25 min, and it is a very steep climb. You must be quite in shape to do it [or use the bus]. Nevertheless you will remain with very nice memories as Positano is so beautiful.
Thank you for your assistance, it is very efficient. We will consider using your help again when we go to Italy.

Margherita [the caretaker] was most helpful with explanation of getting around Positano and the Amalfi Coast as well as explaining the property amenities.
Set right next to a local grocer and away from the main tourist areas of Positano, it was a lovely stay that made us feel like locals!
Thanks to Margherita and we look forward to returning to Positano once again.

Our stay at Villa Sebastiana was great.
It's a good size for 2 people and right next to the city bus stop so very convenient. It is on a busy street, but the windows are on the other side. Although it's nothing fancy, it is a fine place to stay for a few days and a lot more affordable then the hotels in Positano. The management was very responsive with all communication.

My husband and I stayed here for 8 days and LOVED this apartment. The view from the balcony was even better than the photos, just unbelievably beautiful at all times of the day.
We spent more than one night eating dinner on the balcony (when we saw the photos we didn't think it would be big enough for 2 people to sit out there comfortably, but it's actually much bigger than it seems in the photos!). Definitely recommend!
All good!
Communication before/during our stay was quick and perfect.

Villa Sebastiana A was an excellent base to enjoy Positano and the local area
Villa Sebastiana A was an excellent base to enjoy Positano and the local area. It was very convenient for the Sita bus which stops by the door and a mini supermarket which was next door. The steps down into Positano were also next to the front door. The view was stunning out of the little balcony which was just big enough for two people to sit out on.
The kitchen was well equipped and the owner had kindly left us a starter pack of food to get going with and some useful condiments eg. oil, salt, pepper, herbs and spices. The bed was very comfortable and generally the apartment was perfect for two for a short stay. Although the apartment is on the road, when you have the door shut you cannot hear it as the walls are quite thick. If you have the french windows open you can hear the road on the other side of the valley as the road winds around the slopes but it isn't too bad and you will get there where ever you stay.
Good accommodation for the right price.

Villa Sebastiana A is situated right next to a shop which was very handy, especially when you run out milk. Overall the property is pleasant but would have a struggle for a family of 4 to spend a week there.
We were greeted by the owner’s mother and she was very helpful and also provided us with some food and a bottle of wine which I thought was very thoughtful of them.
I found Summer In Italy very professional and helpful, I would recommend them.
