"I experienced a former convent transformed into a sophisticated boutique hotel presiding over the Amalfi Coast with aristocratic grace." - La Guida Michelin
"Now a luxury hotel on the Amalfi Coast, Monastero Santa Rosa still serves sfogliatella for breakfast in homage to the nun’s original recipe from the cloistered convent of Santa Rosa in Conca dei Marini." - Laura Itzkowitz
"We all dream of a romantic, seaside Italian getaway and this one just might be it. The hotel occupies a restored 17th-century monastery just three miles from Amalfi. With 20 rooms, terraced gardens, clifftop Mediterranean views, and a pool that seems to float over the sea, you'll find yourself right at that point of enjoying the seclusion without feeling isolated. Stroll the four levels of terraced gardens, and don't miss the spa, which includes sauna and steam rooms, a hydro pool, and tepidarium. You can enjoy a martini with a side of chess at the library and bar before dining on local Campanian specialties at Il Refettorio, the Michelin-starred restaurant, where the charming servers are straight out of central casting. They still make sfogliatelle (sweet, shell-shaped, filled pastries) according to the nuns’ original recipe—a treat to savor with the sweet life on offer here. —Julia Buckley" - Jamie Spain
"You'll be hard-pressed to find a view of the Amalfi Coast quite like the one you'll get from the luxe infinity pool at Monastero Santa Rosa Hotel & Spa. Carved into the rock-base cliff and surrounded by four levels of lush gardens, the freshwater pool overlooks the clear blue sea and stunning coastline, giving the perception that you're one with the Tyrrhenian Sea below. You'll only find 20 rooms and suites at this property, so if you're looking for a secluded, magical stay, you've come to the right place."
"A historic monastery where nuns are credited with inventing the sfogliatella pastry in the 1600s; its exterior retains a centuries-old appearance while the interior has been transformed into an upscale, luxury spa." - Terri Ciccone
