Monastero Santa Rosa Hotel & Spa
About the hotel
"Set in a building that was once a 17th-century monastery, the boutique Monastero Santa Rosa Hotel & Spa promises panoramic views and Michelin-starred dining alongside its pretty guestrooms."
Thankfully, the original architectural details of the monastery remain, yet all the modern conveniences and luxuries you’d expect have been added. Antiques and handpicked furnishings adorn the rooms and suites – there are just 20 in total – all of which are unique and all have panoramic sea views. If you can splash out on a suite, some come with elegant living and dining rooms as well as terraces covered with bougainvillaea in many colours.
This hotel is a great place to find seclusion, yet somehow it manages to achieve the right balance of peace and quiet, and there’ll be enough leisure activities to nicely fill your day. Find solitude amongst the four levels of tiered gardens where you can grab a lounge chair or find shade on a canopied... Show more

This hotel is a great place to find seclusion, yet somehow it manages to achieve the right balance of peace and quiet, and there’ll be enough leisure activities to nicely fill your day. Find solitude amongst the four levels of tiered gardens where you can grab a lounge chair or find shade on a canopied daybed, then put your feet up with a cool drink and a good book – there’s a library here for you to choose something compelling. Meanwhile, there are quiet sun decks if you want to top up your tan.
If you need a break from the heat, wander through the gardens to the infinity-edge swimming pool, while for pure pampering there’s a spa, fully equipped with treatment rooms, sauna, steam, experience shower, hydro pool and tepidarium – quite unusual for a property this size. When the mood strikes for socialising, it’s the bar that you should be headed to; here you can play a game of chess or cards while sipping a martini.
When it’s time to dine, decide whether you wish to eat al fresco, beside the swimming pool or among the terraced gardens, or if you want a more formal experience. The terrace of the hotel’s Michelin-Starred restaurant, Il Refetorio, promises views of the Gulf of Salerno, whilst indoors you can dine under vaulted ceilings in the intimate, formal dining room. Whichever you prefer, you can look forward to superb Mediterranean cuisine.

The Sea View Deluxe Open Space Suite (Laurus) is the only one of its kind in the hotel and contains unique historical context. Once a nun’s refectory, the open-plan room reflects and preserves this heritage. An elegantly furnished living room stands before the bedroom, with its green-and-gold, antique-framed king-size bed, and large bathroom. This bedroom has ample closet space due to the additional storage provided by the custom-made, stylish closet partition that separates the bedroom space from the living room sitting area.
The entire space looks out directly over the gardens, infinity pool, and Gulf of Salerno. The extraordinary bathroom is designed in dark wood and Jerusalem stone with a separate walk-in shower and soaking tub for relaxing baths. Pamper yourself with Santa Maria Novella pomegranate bath salts and Santa Maria Novella body lotion from our signature spa collection. Just make sure you leave yourself extra time for primping at the seated vanity, as the window above it has distractingly beautiful ocean views.Lowest rate

The Sea View Premium Terrace Suite (Citrus) has historic ties to the Kennedy family. In the 1960s, when the monastery had become the well-known Albergo Monastero di Santa Rosa, one of the “39 castles of Italy,” Jacqueline Kennedy used to lunch here on freshly caught local fish when this suite’s space housed the property’s original dining area. Now, its enormous terrace hangs over the center of the property, suspended over the Amalfi Coast with breathtaking coastal and sea views. Complete with alfresco dining table, lounges, lemon trees, and a retractable canopy when the Amafli sun blazes too strong, it is an ideal locale for a small private reception or dinner party.
The indoor living and dining room luxuriously juxtaposes contemporary Italian style with antique period pieces. The suite’s bedroom, with a king-size bed swathed in fine Italian linens, leads to the extraordinary bathroom designed in dark wood and Jerusalem stone with separate walk-in shower and double-wide tub for long soothing baths with Santa Maria Novella pomegranate bath salts. The bathroom is framed by a window overlooking the gardens, infinity pool, and Gulf of Salerno. We invite you to pamper yourself with our Santa Maria Novella body lotion selected from our signature spa collection.Lowest rate
