About Le Sirenuse
There's a moment when you first step onto Le Sirenuse's sea-facing terrace—past the lemon trees and bougainvillea, beyond the famous pool—when Positano reveals itself in full glory below and the Mediterranean stretches to infinity. That view has captivated guests since 1951, when the aristocratic Sersale family opened their summer villa as a hotel and accidentally created an icon. Today, Le Sirenuse remains family-run and feels exactly like what it is: an impossibly elegant private home that happens to welcome the world's most discerning travelers. The hand-painted tiles tell stories, the antiques have provenance, the staff remember your name, and dinner at Michelin-starred La Sponda unfolds by the light of four hundred candles flickering against frescoed walls. For weddings, this means exchanging vows on terraces where the sunset turns the sea to gold, dancing in spaces that blend classic Italian grandeur with effortless sophistication, and giving your guests an experience they'll recount for decades.

Heritage
A Living Monument to Italian History
The Sersale family's Positano villa had been their private summer escape for generations—an 18th-century palazzo clinging to the cliffside where family gathered each summer to swim, dine on the terraces, and watch the sun set over the Mediterranean. It was paradise, but paradise with just one family enjoying it.

The Exclusive Experience
Exclusive buyout of Le Sirenuse transforms this legendary hotel into your private Amalfi Coast palazzo. All 58 rooms become yours, accommodating up to 150 overnight guests in spaces ranging from sea-view doubles to sprawling suites with private terraces. Your celebration flows seamlessly from ceremony on the main terrace (where Positano provides the backdrop) to Michelin-starred dinner at La Sponda illuminated by four hundred candles, to late-night dancing overlooking the Mediterranean. The Sersale family's team—who've perfected the art of hospitality over seven decades—orchestrates every detail while maintaining that sense of being guests in an extraordinary private home rather than hotel clients. With complete property access, you can host welcome drinks by the pool, ceremony at sunset on the main terrace, reception in La Sponda, and after-party in the Oyster Bar, all while your guests wander between spaces discovering new perspectives on that endless blue view.
