Experience the enchantment of the deep blue sea and create romantic memories at a hilltop hotel that was once a monastery. This unique and fascinating place, the Monastero Santa Rosa on the Amalfi Coast southeast of Rome, is an elegant luxury resort renowned for its serene and magical atmosphere. It strikes the perfect balance between seclusion and accessibility, letting you decide whether your ideal vacation is about relaxation or socializing.
It’s hard to believe that this spacious hotel, with its four tiers of gardens, plenty of sun loungers, daybeds, and a pool, caters to just 20 rooms. You’ll feel pampered with ultimate luxury and comfort.
The Monastero Santa Rosa also features a comprehensive spa that includes not just room treatments but also a sauna, steam room, and a pool with a hot tub. You can unwind in the library or bar, enjoy a game of chess or cards, and read a book while sipping a martini in a modern cocktail space. Relax by the pool and explore the resort’s gardens, soaking up the tranquil sun in indoor relaxation areas.
When you step into your room, you’ll notice details hearkening back to the building’s religious history. The spiritual charm that transformed the monastery remains evident in our luxurious rooms, each named after herbs the nuns once used for medicinal purposes.
The vaulted ceilings and original room structures have been maintained, creating lavish rooms that offer breathtaking sea views all the way to the harbor of Conca dei Marini. Timeless Italian antiques enhance the elegant ambiance. Each room maintains a serene atmosphere, reminiscent of a nun’s private and sunlit retreat.
The suites offer an authentic Italian experience, blending urban style with historical elegance. Each suite is uniquely designed, featuring furniture handpicked by the owner during her travels throughout Italy. Historic black and white photos on the walls serve as a reminder of the building’s spiritual heritage.
Suites vary in size, with each space being completely unique. Some feature stylish living and dining areas, while others boast terraces adorned with bougainvillea, overlooking the Gulf of Salerno and the charming fishing village of Conca dei Marini.
