Looks like a great plan. My favorite hotel in Italy is LaSaracina. http://www.lasaracina.it/menu_eng.htm Much better than the website looks.
Del Capitano is also recommended very often

Also between Positano and Amalfi is the small town Praiano. There is a very reasonable hotel with an amazing view Le Sirene http://www.lesirene.com/tarifs.htm.

BowenLinda,
we haven't decided a base yet, since we actually agreed on a "concept" just last night. My husband and I are wanting to purchase an apt. in a hilltown within a few years in conjunction to opening an Italian import storefront here. The trip is to try to get a feel for a few of the cities I mentioned to see if they are places where we could live for a few months at a time, but draw enough tourists to be able to rent it out when we're not there. We're still looking and researching.

Thanks. Now we're thinking of going from September 30 - October 16 (instead of our original dates of Sep. 23 - Oct. 9). Does anyone think this will make a difference or be a problem with respect to the weather?

Hi Jay,
>4 nights Positano (we agree Sorrento would probably be a more convenient place but my wife has been there before and would like to stay somewhere new)<
We very much enjoyed our stay at the hotel Le Sirene in Praiano - 6km E of Positano.
