The precious decorum, the period furniture and the extraordinary location make this residence unique in the world. The building and the surrounding beautiful botanical garden, make the Palazzo Murat an unforgettable romantic place worthwhile spending a relaxing holiday.

History

Gioacchino Murat, brother-in-law of Napoleone Bonaparte, became king of Naples in 1808,he was captivated by the extraordinary beauty of Positano and the charm of this old palace that decided to turn in his summer residence. The veiled elegance of Palazzo Murat has also charmed other great personalities, writers such as Steinbeck and Semenov, Giovanni Zagoruiko and Escher and worldwide known dancers such as Carla Fracci and Rudolph Nurejev…

The Palazzo Murat is also the house of the Attanasio family. Several generations have grown here joined by the common passion for hospitality. Nowadays each member of the family looks after a specific department with care and meticulousness: the reception, the rooms and the furniture, the restaurant and the organization of events and ceremonies.

The Garden

The whole building is wrapped by a centenary “Bouganvillea” and by a lush “Genus Bignonia” climbing along the balconies and the terraces. The Restaurant’s Garden is a small peaceful corner, full of harmony and ancient perfumes. It was created by the passion of “Donna Carmela” and transferred to her youngest, but not less enthusiastic daughter, Marilù. Today in the Palazzo Murat’s Garden, authentic and unique green island in the center of Positano, colors and perfumes combine perfectly the Oranges and Citrus trees with Tangerines and Lemon’s pergolas and the enormous tropical tall plants: “Washingtonia”, “Chorisia Speciosa” Bananas and “Frangipani”, creating a very relaxing atmosphere. Lush “Star Jasmine” and “Datura Stramonium” plants frame the entrance of the open-air Restaurant, which spreads along the rocky gardens full of rare variety of plants. The Chef Sabatino uses every day plenty of the garden’s products : vegetables, tomatoes, salads and Mediterranean herbs. Glimps of the Church of S .Mary and the Sea appear from suggestive corners of the Garden which ends with a discreet and quite solarium, perfect for private parties and intimate weddings.

Palazzo Murat is a really charming place to stay in lovely Positano. A historic place with great style, a lovely and romantic garden for breakfast, nice pool overlooking the Mediterranean (that we couldn't use it as it was November). Breakfast selection is very Italian, but could be a little more ample. The only thing one could miss is the 180° view to the sea that other places might offer. But overall: recommended!
