Da Ferdinando Positano Reviews
Raking in the $$ with unprofessional practices.
Rented and paid for 2 umbrellas (4 chairs). There were 3 of us and a chair to use for our things. They rented the 4th chair (we paid for) and wouldn’t budge when I told them I PAID for the 4th chair. Sounds like they are taking advantage of those that come in odd numbers. Unprofessional.
Perfect beach day and wonderful service
Don’t waste your time trying to get into other beach clubs. After a short walk through a lovely path from the main pier, you are in Fornillo, a beautiful beach that is not as crowded. All of the people working at the restaurant and beach club were extremely polite and attentive. I got a beautiful front row umbrella for less than $100 and a bottle of champagne for less than $40. Much better deal than the other clubs. The lunch at the restaurant was ridiculously delicious. The mussel and seafood risotto are a must.
Our favorite spot to hang out
The view , the beach, the ambience …. The history of this place !! Make sure to look up the story . It will make you love it even more . Got the white wine and peaches and snacks were delicious . The staff was welcoming . The walk here from the main beach in positano probably took about 15-20 min and is one the best views and walk you can do . The little beach on the way is much more locals which is a great spot . Don’t miss it !!
Absolutely fantastic.
.. saw this in a tik tok by a Positano influencer CHRISTIE https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPR7u4kjW/. As advertised a wonderful and friendly beach front restaurant with a more secluded beach -15 min walking distance or boat taxi with excellent food and drinks that also sells beach chairs.
Great beach club away from the main beaches.
Much quieter and more relaxing. Great food and drinks. About a 5-7 min walk from the ferry or they also have a water shuttle. Would definitely go back next time we visit Positano.
Overpriced, bad service
We decided to come here for lunch but we were using sun beds on a different beach. Initially, we were quite hopeful as we had read many reviews saying how good the food was but unfortunately we were quite let down. The cocktails tasted off and as though they were made with the cheapest they could find. After attempting to flag down a waiter multiple times, we eventually ordered a salad and a seafood pasta but the food was bland and looked very slapdash, and we even found a small hair in the salad. Service in general was very inattentive.
Perfect beach restaurant
Hidden off the more beaten path, just a short distance from the main drag of the Positano beach/ferry port. Cute little beach club right on the sand. Very casual, we went with just coverups on over our swimsuits. Slightly hectic, staff was very busy and a little slow on brining things but very friendly. Perfect place for lunch and cocktails on a hot day.
The food at da Ferdinando was excellent.
The pasta was creamy and flavorful and the lemon sorbet was very refreshing. They also served a fresh basket of bread. Everything was great including the service.
Amazing amazing amazing.
Best dinner of our trip - the pesto spaghetti was to die for. I forget the official name
Great beach lunch
Love this place! Great food, wine, and service. Recommend the local white wine with peach. Beach is also steps away. Highly recommended.
Definitely book, won't be disappointed
We used the beach club twice and ate lunch both days in the restaurant. Great staff, excellent food, quick service, great location as the beach is alot quieter.
Lunch at Da Ferdinando
Service was great, we ordered the deep fried squid and drinks. Food was great as well as the view. We would highly recommend.
Our favourite beach bar in Positano
We were recommended to use this beach bar and they didn’t disappoint. There is a charming path from Marina Grande (5-10 minute walk) or they will collect you by boat. We much preferred Fornillo beach. They are very slightly cheaper than the others we saw and so much friendlier. You get a lovely sense of family when here. The drinks and food are great and the service is brilliant. Just open a tab when you arrive and everything is brought to you. We will definitely return when we’re next in Positano.
Went Two Days In A Row - Great Beach and Restaurant
We went to Da Ferdinando two days in a row since we enjoyed it so much! Actually the first day, we went to the beach club next door, then walked over to Da Ferdinando for lunch and liked the food and service, and our server Leonardo so much, that we reserved chairs for the front row the following day as well. This beach is beautiful, and the food at the restaurant is delicious, and they have a wide variety to choose from. The drinks are great too! Reserve a front row chair in advance if you can -it's worth the few extra Euros! Try to catch the boat from the dock in Positano before 11am if you can to get there before too crowded. The boat will also take you back to the main dock starting at 4pm. Fornillo Beach and Da Ferdinando was the perfect way to spend two days! Bring beach shoes as the sand gets super hot and the rocks are sharp and slippery. Worth the extra trouble - glad we did! Thanks again to our friend Leonardo (looks like an LA Surfer dude) for taking such good care of us both days!
Food was awesome.
The walk from the marina is a challenge so take a quick water taxi instead. But worth the walk for a great meal.
Awesome day!
We took a little boat that was complementary from the main pier over to the quiet little Fornillo beach where we had reserved chairs in advance with Da Ferdinando. Great price and great food at the restaurant. It a nice quiet area and a great way to spend a day!
Amazing restaurant away from the crowds!
We visited this restaurant for lunch during a boat tour and the shuttle service was much appreciated! The drinks were delicious and the service excellent! Our waitress recommended the limoncello mojito and it was SO good! The paccheri with amberjack was the best we’ve had! The restaurant was not too busy but very lively and the food excellent! Beautiful location away from the crowds and a yummy lunch! They had a baby chair!
Fabulous
We visited this lovely beach bar a few times on our stay. We could not fault the food or service. Friendly staff, great fish and wine and very reasonable fabulous!
Day Visit
We spent a day at this beach club and it was great. It was the quieter of the two beaches and provided a great area to relax in the sun & grab food and drinks. The long walk down the stairs is tough, but well worth the $30/day fee for a beach chair.

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Da Ferdinando Positano at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Da Ferdinando Positano page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* FamousStation67, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* FamousStation67 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to FamousStation67 for any questions Peter may have as FamousStation67 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* FamousStation67 now uses their connections at Da Ferdinando Positano to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If FamousStation67 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, FamousStation67 receives the $200 reward which is credited to FamousStation67's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Da Ferdinando Positano!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
