Villa TreVille

Franco Zeffirelli's old estate, across four villas (Rosa, Azzurra, Bianca, Tre Pini).

Zeffirelli (the film director) bought it in the 1970s and entertained Maria Callas, Leonard Bernstein, Rudolf Nureyev, Liza Minnelli, Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton over decades. Zeffirelli sold the property in 2007 to hotelier Giovanni Russo, who converted it into a 16-suite hotel; the Friedland family acquired it in 2013. Most of the original furniture, art, and books remain. There's no traditional reception; you're shown to your villa by name. The hotel runs a boat shuttle into Positano. Ask the hotel directly about dining if you are not staying.
