LikedUnfortunately trip was ruined by getting robbed inside the property
DislikedRobbed at Villa Treville
We got robbed at the hotel premises by their fish supplier. He grabbed our locked bag that the hotel staff had left at the loading bay inside the hotel premises until taxi arrived. Bag contained our passports, cash, jewelry, luxury watch and other valuables.
The hotel has the audacity to blame us by saying that the bags were under our custody even though we have hotel CCTV footage of the hotel staff handling and leaving our baggage at the loading bay, pathetic.
This led to extremely harrowing experiences, involving the police, attaining emergency passports from embassy in Rome, traveling back and forth from Rome to Positano, re-booking flights twice and a court case.
All to end with retrieving some of our belongings but not all and some compensation from the thief, only enough to cover our legal fees. Villa Treville’s management has been shirking their responsibility, despite fervent and repeated assurances at the time of theft that they will cover all our losses and not to worry about anything.
Along with unprofessional staff and management they have even managed to hire unprofessional lawyers who never answer their phone or respond to emails! The entirely shameless operation is trying to take no responsibility for the actions of their staff, caused by their lack of security, by their supplier, INSIDE THEIR PROPERTY. And not to mention duping us with a false sense of hope by their management.
I’m certain there are much nicer, SAFER and better managed hotels in Positano, I’d suggest giving this one a hard pass!
