Villa Franca was once a private residence which was then converted into a chic boutique hotel, still run by the same family.
The rooms and suites are spread across two elegant villas. Each room is unique, but they all share our signature style of luxurious, contemporary décor and are filled with carefully chosen furniture of the highest quality. They have a mix of design and contemporary art, white is the dominant colour and each room has large windows through which sunlight floods into the space. Each room has a balcony or terrace with spectacular views of the Mediterranean or Positano.
We prefer the Deluxe rooms because they have balconies overlooking enchanting Positano and the glittering sea.
Take a refreshing dip in the pool and soak up the Italian sun on one of the loungers around the pool.
Large statues, ornate tiles, traditional steam baths - there's a touch of classic Italy at O'SPA. Yet the soothing massage and beauty therapies are made for life in the 21st century. After a soak in the hammam or Turkish bath, get yourself ready for the beach with a manicure or pedicure. If you prefer exercise to relaxation, Villa Franca also has a personal trainer and a well-equipped gym. Outside Villa Franca, winding roads lead you past pretty cliff towns and through some of Italy's most iconic landscapes. It's ideal for hiking, but the beaches around the hotel are the real stars. Hiring a boat, complete with skipper, is a wonderful way to see them all. To explore the area further, the helpful staff at Villa Franca are happy to arrange a number of guided tours. Stop in Sorrento, see Pompeii or explore the charismatic Gulf of Naples.
Children are welcome from 10 years of age but there's more of an adults-friendly atmosphere here.
Choose one of the tables right by the window for the best view during your breakfast.
