Villa Treville, opened as a hotel in 2010, has become a prominent presence on the Amalfi Coast. It offers cinematic views of Positano, situated on a terraced estate, blending proximity for immersion with privacy and stunning sea views.

The estate dates back to the 18th century and was famously owned by Franco Zeffirelli in the 1960s. As a renowned film and opera director, he infused the property with a theatrical touch, working with set designer Renzo Mongiardino to add a Moorish flair to the Mediterranean architecture.

Southern Italy, including the Amalfi Coast, was part of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies and still showcases its Arab heritage in architecture, design, and cuisine. At Treville, this legacy is reflected in Moroccan lanterns, which cast a warm, dreamy glow across its rooms and gardens.

Though mainly based in Rome, Zeffirelli spent summers on the Amalfi Coast, hosting celebrities like Maria Callas, Elton John, Elizabeth Taylor, and Rudolf Nureyev. Nureyev, a famous Russian dancer, owned a home on the Li Galli islands, visible offshore.

The Zeffirelli Suite

Today, Treville’s 16 bedrooms and suites are named after these icons, along with Zeffirelli’s legendary productions. Originally set within three villas (“tre ville”) which are white, pink and blue, the hotel now boasts six villas which are connected by secret staircases, cobbled passageways and flower-lined trails. Each suite has its own character with a mix of historic touches and modern luxury.

The Callas Suite features a turquoise and citrus color scheme. It includes an outdoor terrace and a private heated plunge pool under a shaded canopy, creating a relaxing outdoor space.

The Bernstein Suite is known for its blue and white stripes and a unique circular shower set inside a historic brick bread oven, adding charm and character.

The Zeffirelli Suite is the largest, with four bedrooms and four en-suite bathrooms. It’s the highlight of the property, decorated with rare art and historic furnishings collected by Zeffirelli. It also has its own terrace and heated plunge pool for privacy and luxury.

The Callas Suite preserves Zeffirelli’s original design, including the white salon, a spacious room decorated entirely in white tiles. It offers a peaceful retreat from Positano’s bright sunshine.

The space has been transformed into Bianca Bar, a botanical lounge where tradition meets innovation. Here, cocktails are crafted with herbs and distillers from the estate’s gardens.

Two panoramic terraces overlook Positano and the sea. Surrounded by leafy plants, colorful cushions, and flapping curtains, they create a mystical and intimate atmosphere.

This terrace is one of the most photogenic spots in Positano, offering a feeling of exclusivity and relaxation—like lounging at a friend’s private villa with warm service and thoughtful hospitality.

Bianca Bar is the perfect spot for sunset drinks, leading into dinner at Maestro’s, the property’s romantic open-air terrace restaurant.

The restaurant features ivy-covered columns and a tiled fountain at its center. Soft Moroccan lamps cast a warm glow, perfect for enjoying scenic sunsets.

Chef Vincenzo Castaldo creates seasonal dishes and regional classics using ingredients from the estate’s organic garden. The menu offers elevated comfort food—from Spaghetti alla Nerano with fried zucchini and parmesan, mozzarella-stuffed artichokes with black truffles, to seared tuna with sautéed vegetables.

Maestro’s Restaurant is part of a beautiful property surrounded by lush gardens and winding paths.

Guests can visit The Rocks, a stylish beach club that extends into the sea. It offers stunning views of Positano, with blue umbrellas and striped sun loungers. This relaxing spot also serves as the pier for the hotel’s boat fleet, which now includes Treville Maritime’s private yacht, the Wajer 38 Spectre.

Another haven is La Traviata, a luxurious spa set inside a sunlit greenhouse. The spa uses Dr. Barbara Sturm products, known for restorative massages and treatments. This space is designed for pure relaxation and rejuvenation.

Treville has added a cold-water immersion therapy feature, including a cold plunge pool kept at 50°F (10°C). This complements the existing heat therapies at the spa.

Another wellness highlight is the heated grotto pool, offering stunning sea views and a relaxing retreat.

The hotel remains a favorite for celebrities like Madonna, Jennifer Lopez, and Sting, who value its luxurious amenities and relaxed low-key vibe.

Guests can arrive by road or sea. The private boat shuttle is available for free, taking guests to Positano and beyond, providing both convenience and a chance to enjoy the scenic Amalfi Coast.
