Italy, Positano – Villa Treville

Villa Treville Positano Review

While Positano can speak for itself in terms of charm and beauty, the Villa Treville is by far the most gorgeous hotel I have ever stayed at! It’s so tranquil and has such glamorous décor, I tuly felt like I was in heaven.

As soon as I arrived I was given a tour of the hotel before being shown to my own villa, which was spectacular. Uniquely decorated, you feel like you are staying in someone’s beautifully decorated home instead of a hotel. I also had an amazing terrace with a great view of the coastline.
