Live the legend

  1. A vacation in Positano, which won't break the bank
  2. Rooms and terraces overlooking the sea
  3. A holiday on the beach and in the mountains
Address
Via Marconi, 266/bis - Positano

In the hills dominating the Bay of Positano, surrounded by exquisitely scented lemon, myrtle and olive trees, Le Nereidi is one of those places which, once you've found it, you'll never want to leave.
Wonderfully peaceful, incredibly panoramic and surprisingly affordable, this family-run B&B is one of the Amalfi Coast's best kept secrets.

What's in a name?

According to legend, the sea surrounding the Amalfi Coast was once inhabited by fifty Nereidi or sea nymphs. Apparently the Bay of Positano was the place these mythological creatures loved best, as it was here that the sound of their song was at its sweetest.

Sun & Sea

They call them rooms, but in reality, B&B Le Nereidi's Sole (sun) and Mare (sea) are apartments: fully-serviced apartments complete with kitchen, sitting room, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and pretty sea view terrace, perfect for secluded sunbathing and leisurely al fresco breakfasts.

Something special? Book the B&B's "Mare", and after a day on the beach, return to your apartment and indulge in a relaxing Jacuzzi bath

Welcome to paradise

A low-cost vacation on the Amalfi Coast? B&B le Nereidi is the perfect choice if you want to experience this most loved stretch of the Italian coastline, without having to spend an arm and a leg.
If you want to swim in the sea, there's the Spiaggia Grande, the heart of Positano and one of the largest beaches on the Amalfi Coast. If you like walking, you'll love the incredibly scenic Path of the Gods which, from Positano, winds its way up into the mountains as far as the tiny little village of Nocelle.

Time to explore

A great base from where to explore Positano and all the other beautiful little towns on the Amalfi Coast, Le Nereidi is located on the main road of Positano, close to the shops and the bus stop from where to catch buses to nearby Amalfi and Atrani.
For those arriving by car, there's a private car park within steps of the B&B.

A beautiful, hidden gem in the hills of Positano

It’s extremely rare in this life that you meet someone as genuine and kind as Columba, who makes such a real effort to welcome you into her home. What a wonderful person she is, so helpful and kind - she made us feel so at home at Le Nereidi. We had a wonderful short 3 days at this beautiful B&B. We were only passing through Positano so wanted a reasonably priced bed and breakfast with everything we’d need and Le Nereidi was perfect! The location was great for us, just a 3 minute walk from the bus stop which we were dropped at from Sorrento and only a short 10/15 minute walk down the steps of Positano to the beach! This bus stop also is the one you get along the coast to towns such as Priano & Amalfi. It also takes you into the centre of Positano - costing only £1.30 per journey! The rooms are clean and come with all the amenities you need - a hairdryer, toiletries, a stocked (extremely reasonably priced) mini fridge, tea & coffee, and ours even had a smart TV!!! The breakfast was great, Columba was the perfect host and made sure we had everything we need. Our room was tidied daily and fresh towels provided. The view from our balcony was nothing short of unbelievable - it was a dream to be able to sit here at night and watch as the sunset on Positano and the town lit up. I couldn’t recommend this place enough if you’re looking for a reasonably priced trip to Positano. Thank you Columba for your hospitality, we can’t wait to return!

Hostess with the mostest

This place is a real gem! The hostess is so so lovely and really accommodating, nothing is too much. We arrived way earlier than check in and she was there waiting for us, room ready and even brought us breakfast! She gave us helpful tips on getting around Positano and when my phone charger broke she lent me her sons! The apartment was lovely, spacious and clean. Amazing spacious balcony area where we enjoyed our breakfast every day and evening drinks and nibbles. Views are incredible. Breakfast was nice, continental style, fresh fruit, cereal, coffee, juice, cake, bread, jams and other packaged items which you can either eat at the communal breakfast area or on your private balcony- all with amazing views There is a mini bar in the fridge and a mini mart shop not too far away to stock up on water etc Would 100% recommend this place Only negative is the amount of steps to get there from the beach :( and the fact that you have to navigate a busy windy road to get there, the gate entrance is right on the road which is a bit dangerous

Positano Holiday - La Nireria B & B

Sep 10, 2022
What a fabulous place to visit in Positano. Our B & B host Colomba who couldn't have been nicer. With the most amazing view across the bay and a beautiful setting each day for breakfast. Quite a few steps to walk from the street each day but once you are at the top the view makes it worth it. Close by are 2 supermarkets, both owners are lovely plus a bar, 2 restaurants and newsagents. A small local mini bus can take you down the hill for €1.25 but we enjoyed the walk down looking at all the great shops, bars and cafes it only takes 10/15 mins. Easy to catch a boat to any of the coastal areas from Capri, Almafi, Sorrento etc. An amazing trip with lots of lovely memories

Too far from town, disappointed overall

I'm well traveled and not a complainer, but we were really unhappy with our stay here. Very far from town and difficult to get down there. Super busy road right outside the gate to navigate to town - whether you are walking, taking taxi, or bus. Trust me, it's stressful. Stay close to town. We arrived on a rainy day, after a very long travel day. We were exhausted and slept in a bit the first morning. We asked for breakfast at 10:20, vs 10. Columba told us 2-3 times she would make a "one time exception". There are only 5 rooms and when guests arrive late in bad weather, it seems one would be kind and a bit more flexible. Not the service I would expect for over a $500 per night stay in this very average place. And the breakfast was a bunch of cheap carbs except for a cake that was delicious that she baked and cheap banana yogurt. We did our own breakfast the remaining days. Yes, there are 167 stairs up and down but we were prepared for that. That is not the issue for me when posting this. There is a pulley that takes your luggage 75% of the way but it was raining upon check out and Columba was very distracted trying to bring a mostly prepackaged breakfast to only 4 rooms even though she had another woman helping her that she stopped it too soon so I had to run all the way up again in the rain to get her to get pulley down enough so we can reach our lugge while taxi was waiting on busy road. It was a really disappointing Positano experience overall, no suggestions on how to get around town, just left on our own. Would not recommend. The reviews are misleading to me, and I travel and carefully read reviews before I book.
