Sorrento is the most reasonable option in terms of stay. Both Amalfi and Ravello can be covered in a day. While Capri and Positano needs separate day tour each to fully explore around. Since there aren't any food joints, cuisine options are limited and expensive. For cost saving, take public transport SITA bus wherever possible. If you are visiting Capri for a day, leave early morning as the last ferry leaves from Capri at 5:30pm. Timings might change! Italians are very helpful.
