If we could give Maria a rating of 100+ stars, we would! If you are visiting Positano, then Maria is the ONLY one you need to help you. She consistently exceeded any expectations we had from before we arrived and after we departed! She arranged our apartment, drivers, an amazing boat day for us to travel to Capri and tour the coast, recommended restaurants and more. She is warm, friendly and genuine. She greeted us with hugs upon arrival as if we had been friends for a long while. She provided a map of Positano, highlighted points of interest and made sure we knew where we were going! The drivers she arranged were friendly and always took the time to point out towns along the way. They even took the time to stop during our rides for us to see breathtaking views and take pictures. Our boat day to Capri started out with the owner of the boat company picking us out of a crowd and greeting us! The boat – beautiful. Our Captain – fantastic. He took the time to stop at some amazing sights along the coast on our way to Capri and explained so many things about special landmarks and their significance. He was friendly, funny and a very skilled Captain. Maria not only recommended, but made a reservation for us at an amazing restaurant overlooking the water in between Capri and Positano for our return to Positano. Maria checked in with us frequently to make sure everything was going well with our visit to Positano. It is so clear how much Maria cares about what she does – she truly wanted to make sure we were happy. The people she works with are the same. We will be forever grateful to Maria for making our visit to Positano so memorable. Although it was sad to leave such a beautiful place, we left feeling that we gained a friend. Maria – thank you for being so wonderful. We look forward to seeing you again soon! ~Derek, Shara and Abigail
