Experience the magic of the deep blue and enjoy romantic moments in a hotel perched at the top a hill, which was formerly a monastery. It is a cool and interesting hotel with so much to offer. The Monastero Santa Rosa, in the Amalfi coast, southeast of Rome is an elegant luxury resort known for its quiet and magical location. Offering the perfect balance of isolation without loneliness, the hotel allows guests to define their own desire for an ideal vacation, whether they include relaxing moments or fun and meet new people. It is difficult to imagine that this generous size, with four levels of gardens, ample sun loungers, daybeds and pool serves the needs of only 20 rooms. This one will give you the feeling of ultimate luxury and comfort.
The Monastero Santa Rosa also houses a full service spa, offering not only simple room treatments, with a variety of options, but it also includes a sauna, steam room and a pool with a hot tub. You are welcome to enjoy the library and bar. Indulge in a game of chess or cards and read a book while sipping a martini in modern space for cocktails. Relax in the pool and discover the gardens of the resort, the quiet sun and indoor relaxation areas.
Entering the room you will discover places that refer to earlier religious use of the building. The spiritual charm transformed the monastery remains ever present in our luxurious rooms, each of which has the name of a herb, used by the nuns for pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Vaulted ceilings and the main structure of the rooms of the monks have maintained and created luxurious rooms, each with magnificent sea views stretching from the harbor of Conca dei Marini. The elegant ambience enhanced by timeless Italian antiques. Each room still exudes a sense of calm, a nun who enjoyed staying in a private and intimate retreat bathed in sunlight.
The suites are an authentic Italian, urban experience. Each suite has been individually designed with furniture selected by the owner during her travels in Italy. Historic black and white photos adorn the walls reminding us of the spiritual past of the building.
The suites vary in size, with each space completely unique, some with elegant living and dining areas and terraces swathed in bougainvillea, which wander over the Gulf of Salerno and the enchanting fishing village of Conca dei Marini.
