Where to Stay on the Amalfi Coast

Positano is the most photographed village on the coast and the top choice for first-time visitors who want to be in the heart of the action. Expect steep staircases, boutique shopping, beach clubs and some of the coast's best restaurants. One-bedroom apartments in Positano start from around €120 per night in shoulder season and rise to €250–€400 in July and August. Larger villas with private pools can reach €800–€1,500 per night during peak weeks. Browse our Positano holiday homes — from cosy studios with sea-view terraces to spacious three-bedroom villas perched above the village.

Amalfi is the historic capital of the coast and the most practical base if you plan to explore by bus or ferry. The Duomo square is lively without being overwhelming, and you are within ferry distance of Positano, Capri and Salerno. Apartments in Amalfi town typically cost €90–€180 per night, making it a solid mid-range choice. View all our stays to find restored apartments just steps from the harbour, ideal for couples and small families.

Ravello sits 350 metres above sea level and rewards visitors with silence, gardens and panoramic views that stretch to the horizon. If your idea of a perfect holiday is reading on a terrace with an infinity view, Ravello is your place. BlueKeys offers several villas in Ravello with private gardens — expect €200–€500 per night for a villa with panoramic views and space for up to six guests. It is a favourite for longer stays, remote workers and anyone who values peace over nightlife.

Praiano, wedged between Positano and Amalfi, is the locals' secret. It is quieter, more affordable and blessed with the best sunsets on the coast. A comfortable one-bedroom apartment with sea views in Praiano starts from around €80 per night — easily the best value on the Costiera. Our properties here are within walking distance of the Gavitella beach path and a short bus ride from both Positano and Amalfi.

Wherever you choose, BlueKeys provides a local concierge, airport transfers and insider tips that no algorithm can offer. The best time to visit is May to June or September to October — warm enough for swimming, calm seas for boat tours along the coast, and prices 20–30% lower than peak summer. Combine your stay with a Capri day trip from Sorrento for the complete Amalfi experience.
