Monastero Santa Rosa
Situated between Conca dei Marini and Amalfi, the Monastero occupies a seventeenth-century Dominican monastery that has been converted with extraordinary sensitivity. The infinity pool, set in the former vegetable garden, hangs above the sea, and the spa, built into the monastery's vaulted cellars, may be the most atmospheric in Italy.
With only twenty rooms, the property keeps a real sense of retreat. It captures Ravello's quiet, lofty seclusion without being in Ravello itself.
Doubles start from around EUR 550. The hotel closes from November through March, so plan your visit timing accordingly.
Guest Reviews
We had the most unforgettable stay at Monastero Santa Rosa. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel so genuinely welcome, and the entire experience was seamless from start to finish. The property itself is absolutely breathtaking — perched above the Amalfi Coast with some of the most incredible, uninterrupted views I have ever seen. The setting is peaceful, private, and deeply romantic, making it perfect for couples or anyone looking for a true escape. The restoration of the former monastery has been done beautifully, preserving its history while creating a refined and elegant sense of luxury throughout. Every detail feels considered, yet nothing ever feels overdone. The gardens and infinity pool are real highlights — both incredibly serene and perfectly positioned to take in the coastline. It is the kind of place where you genuinely don’t feel the need to leave, and in fact, many guests we spoke with mentioned they barely did. Service throughout our stay was exceptional — warm, attentive, and discreet, striking exactly the right balance. Everything felt effortless and very well cared for. There is also a complimentary shuttle into Amalfi town, which makes it easy to explore when you want to, while still enjoying the privacy and calm of the property.
The Atmosphere Housed in a restored 17th-century monastery perched on the edge of a cliff in Conca dei Marini, the hotel successfully maintains its contemplative, quiet roots while offering modern luxury. The architecture preserves many original features, such as vaulted ceilings and arched windows, which frame the dramatic views of the Salerno Gulf. Accommodations The rooms are elegant and understated, focused heavily on the sea views. Even the standard rooms feel like a private sanctuary. The decor is classic Italian—refined but not over-the-top—making the most of the sunlight and the coastal breeze.
Always such a pleasurable stay. This was our second stay at the hotel and their attention to detail, personalised service combined with their stunning rooms and the scenic and historic beauty of the coast makes it unmatched. I recommend this hotel many times over!
5 star experience from the service, staff, and michelin star restaurant. It felt like being home among family and friends. The views are immaculate. We also got upgraded to a suite called Menthe. Would definitely be back soon ❤️
The best hotel experience we have ever had - everything and everyone was in sync! We absolutely loved it!!! 🥰 The staff are sooooo genuine and helpful. Emphasis on the genuine as often that is rare even in the fanciest hotels. We will definitely be back!

Anantara Convento di Amalfi Grand Hotel
A thirteenth-century Capuchin convent turned luxury hotel, the Convento sits above Amalfi town with expansive views along the coast. The cloister, with its Arab-Norman arches and citrus garden, is magnificent, and the infinity pool overlooking the town and the sea is excellent.
Belmond Hotel Caruso
The infinity pool at Hotel Caruso, set in the gardens of an eleventh-century palazzo, appears to merge directly with the sea 300 metres below. It is, without exaggeration, one of the most photographed hotel pools in the world.
Casa Angelina
The coast's most design-forward hotel, Casa Angelina is a study in Mediterranean minimalism: all white surfaces, clean lines, and vast windows framing the sea. It is a striking counterpoint to the baroque opulence of properties like Palazzo Avino.
