After decades of restoration and renovation, this 17th century monastery reopened in 2012 as a boutique luxury hotel, a fine accolade to its abundance of rich history. Vaulted ceilings lead down cool stone corridors, dotted with Italian antiques, to tastefully furnished rooms beyond. From every window, breath-taking views of shimmering water and jagged cliffs unfold, perfectly encompassing the hotel’s motto: ‘At each window, the sun. From each window, the sea.’ Four tiers of elegantly landscaped gardens lead down to a heated infinity pool which blends seamlessly with the sweeping sea views beyond. Sink into the shade of a canopied daybed and surrender to the seduction of this magical Italian haven of romance and relaxation, nestled within the rocks of one of the most iconic coastlines on the planet.
