Romantic Hotels With Private Hot Tub on the Amalfi Coast, Italy
The Amalfi Coast is one of the most dramatically beautiful stretches of coastline in the world. The hotels carved into its cliffs have rooms and suites that frame the Mediterranean as the main feature. Private jacuzzi tubs and terrace hot tubs facing the sea are common among the better properties.
Romantic Hotels With Private Hot Tub on the Amalfi Coast
1. Il San Pietro di Positano
From approximately €700/night
Arguably the finest hotel on the Amalfi Coast. Built into the cliff face between Positano and Praiano, suites cascade down the rock and open onto private terraces with sea views. Several suites have private outdoor jacuzzis. A glass elevator descends to the private beach. The restaurant is exceptional.
Why couples love it: Complete seclusion on the Amalfi Coast with one of the most dramatic cliff settings in Italy. The private terrace tub with the Mediterranean below is as good as this coastline gets.
Best for: Luxury honeymoon, milestone anniversary
Check availability at Il San Pietro di Positano
2. Le Sirenuse — Positano
From approximately €600/night
Le Sirenuse has been one of the most famous hotels in Italy since 1951 — a converted aristocratic villa in the centre of Positano, with suites that have outdoor hot tubs facing the sea. The Franco’s Bar is a Positano institution. Exceptional attention to design and detail throughout.
Why couples love it: This is Positano as it is supposed to feel. The central location, the history, the terrace views — it is the most romantic hotel on the Coast.
Best for: Romantic honeymoon, couples who want to be in the heart of Positano
Check availability at Le Sirenuse
3. Monastero Santa Rosa — Conca dei Marini
From approximately €500/night
A 17th-century monastery converted into a hotel on the cliffside between Amalfi and Positano. Suites have terrace hot tubs with panoramic sea views. The infinity pool carved from the cliff is one of the most impressive in Italy. Quieter and more secluded than the busier towns.
Why couples love it: The monastery setting gives it a tranquility you do not find in Positano. Private terrace tubs, an extraordinary cliff pool, and real seclusion with easy access to the rest of the coast.
Best for: Couples wanting quiet luxury, spa-focused honeymoon
Check availability at Monastero Santa Rosa
4. Hotel Santa Caterina — Amalfi
From approximately €400/night
A family-run hotel above Amalfi town welcoming guests since 1880. Villa suites have outdoor jacuzzis on private terraces facing the sea. Lemon groves, a clifftop pool, and a private beach accessed by lift. One of the most traditionally beautiful hotels on the Coast.
Why couples love it: Old-school Amalfi elegance, private terrace jacuzzis, and lemon grove gardens — something genuinely lovely and unhurried.
Best for: Romantic anniversary, couples who prefer classic Italian elegance

5. Palazzo Avino — Ravello
From approximately €450/night
Ravello sits 350 metres above the sea, offering the most dramatic elevated views on the Amalfi Coast. A 12th-century villa with suites that have private terraces and outdoor jacuzzis facing the Mediterranean far below. The elevated Ravello perspective is unlike anything the cliff-road towns offer.
Why couples love it: Soaking in a private tub 350 metres above the Mediterranean. Ravello is quieter and more peaceful than Positano — better for couples who want views without crowds.
Best for: Couples wanting elevated views and more peace than Positano

Best for Honeymoon
Le Sirenuse in Positano. The history, the central location, the terrace views, and the level of service make it the most romantic hotel on the Coast for a honeymoon.
Most Luxurious Option
Il San Pietro di Positano. The cliff setting and level of seclusion are unmatched on the Amalfi Coast.
Best Budget Romantic Stay
Hotel Santa Caterina in Amalfi. Traditional elegance, private terrace jacuzzis, and family-run character at prices somewhat lower than the top-tier properties.
Practical Notes
- Best time to visit. May-June and September-October. July and August see gridlocked roads and packed towns. Shoulder season is far more pleasant.
- Getting around. The coastal road is narrow and congested in peak season. Ferries between Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello are often faster and more scenic than driving.
- Book early. The best suites at Le Sirenuse and Il San Pietro book up many months ahead for peak season.
