Our Unexpected Discovery at Pupetto Beach Club, Positano
We didn’t plan on finding it. My partner and I, both from New York, were wandering the charming paths of Positano, letting the town’s colors, scents, and sounds guide us. And then, almost by chance, we stumbled upon Pupetto Beach Club.
The moment we arrived, we felt an instant wave of calm. The soft blue and white palette, the neatly arranged sunbeds, and the gentle sound of the waves immediately put us at ease. It was quiet, elegant, and welcoming all at once—exactly the kind of atmosphere we had hoped for on the Amalfi Coast.
We picked a sunbed by the water and sank into the cushions. The breeze, the light, the rhythm of the sea—it all felt perfect. When a server approached to take our order, we felt cared for in the most natural way. We decided to celebrate the day with a bottle of champagne, and the service was attentive but never intrusive. Every detail was effortless, making our little moment feel special.
By midday, we made our way to the terrace for lunch. We couldn’t resist trying the lobster roll and a classic pizza. Every bite was a revelation—the freshness of the ingredients, the authentic Mediterranean flavors, and the care in the presentation left us speechless. We exchanged looks of delight, silently agreeing this was exactly the culinary experience we had dreamed of.
The afternoon passed slowly, in the best way possible. We returned to our sunbed, read, sipped champagne, and let the calm of the beach wash over us. When it was finally time to leave, we took the scenic path along the cliffs, passing through the promenade to Spiaggia Grande, marveling at the beauty of Positano bathed in the golden light of late afternoon.
That evening, over dinner at our hotel, one of us asked, “Why didn’t we go back to Pupetto today? We were so happy there.” Without a second thought, we pulled out our phone, went straight to the website, and booked a table for the next day.
Some discoveries are meant to be accidental, and Pupetto Beach Club turned out to be the highlight of our Positano trip. Between the attentive service, the delicious food, and the serene atmosphere, it’s a place we can’t wait to return to.
