This stunning hotel sits dramatically on the edge of a cliff overlooking the sparkling Gulf of Salerno, on Italy's stunning Amalfi Coast. Once a 17th-century monastery, Monastero Santa Rosa Hotel & Spa has been restored and transformed into a rustic-luxe retreat with a charming blend of Italian heritage and contemporary style.
Combining terraced gardens, a luxurious spa and infinity pool with jaw-dropping views, and an outdoor spa, it’s perfect for couples and honeymooners seeking an exclusive and secluded hideaway in a spectacular setting.
Offering just twenty spacious and elegant rooms and suites, all feature original architecture, antique furnishings, and contemporary Italian style. Beds are made up with the finest white Italian linens and the bathrooms come with heated floors.
The dining terrace – suspended high over the sea – is a romantic spot for dinner, but also an ideal place to begin the day with breakfast. Complimentary afternoon tea is served on the bar terrace which is a magical spot for a sundowner.
