We take you across Italy, in search of idyllic places and exclusive experiences. From monasteries clinging to the cliffs to cave dwellings and a lighthouse set upon the sea: seven extraordinary addresses, for a stay unlike any other.

1 Monastero Santa RosaAmalfi

A former monastery turned boutique hotel, it unfolds over four levels of gardens with an infinity pool suspended above the sea. The property has kept its historic character while offering twenty rooms and suites of contemporary comfort, with unobstructed Mediterranean views, ideal for an intimate escape, away from the crowds.

2 MandranovaSicily

In the heart of a green oasis, an old farmhouse entirely restored. This fifteen-room estate blends Sicilian design with its natural surroundings and includes an independent villa with private pool. You tour the olive grove and oil mill, savour farm-to-table cuisine, and set off by boat around Sicily.

3 SikeliaPantelleria

Twenty luxury suites tucked into ancient dammusi, those lava-stone structures with domed roofs. The hotel weaves monastic architecture with contemporary design on a wild, remote island. Private terraces, sea excursions, vineyard tastings and hikes shape the stay.

4 EremitoUmbria

A 14th-century monastery transformed into an eco-hotel devoted to well-being: yoga, steam baths and herbal-tea tastings in the peaceful valleys of Umbria. A parenthesis of silence, set apart from the world.

5 Sagna RotondaPiedmont

This small village in Piedmont offers a singular experience in the heart of the mountains. Ten comfortable dwellings in a restored Alpine hamlet, all natural materials, and an exclusive spa set within a former stable with stone vaulting.

6 SextantioMatera

In the historic heart of Matera's Sassi, this singular hotel offers eighteen dwellings set inside caves. The minimalist design honours the UNESCO-listed heritage, while the rooms, clinging to the cliff, overlook the Gravina stream below.

7 Capo SpartiventoSardinia

What could be more singular than a night in a lighthouse by the sea? Four suites occupy this clifftop lighthouse, with an infinity pool and panoramic coastal views, complemented by the nearby Lighthouse Keeper's House and its four further suites.

Seven addresses, seven ways to inhabit Italy differently. Each belongs to a region, a light, a table, and an itinerary we compose around you.
