The luxury of simplicity

  1. Savor the refined menu of the fine dining restaurant
  2. Soak in the heated infinity pool overlooking the Bay of Naples
  3. Relax in the exclusive spa with thermal suites

The Monastero Santa Rosa is one of the most unique luxury hotels along the Amalfi Coast, perched directly above the sea on the cliffs of Conca dei Marini along the road between Amalfi and Positano. In the 12th century, this complex was home to a comunity of cloistered Domenican nuns, and has now been restored and transformed into an understatedly elegant hotel with all the original architecture of its historic origins.

Seventh Heaven

You will be transported by the scents of citrus trees and Mediterranean herbs which fill the vast terraced gardens on four levels, furnished with welcoming outdoor sofas and shaded chaise lounges. On the lowest level along the horizon, the heated infinity pool skirts the cliff edge, making it difficult to tell where the water ends and the sky begins. You'll feel like you are in seventh heaven in this lush secret garden suspended over the sea.

Every corner of the Monastero Santa Rosa offers up heavenly views: each window, balcony, and terrace overlooks the endless turquoise waters of the Mediterranean, from the Gulf of Salerno to the shores of the Amalfi Coast.

A Room Among the Clouds

The 20 luxurious rooms and suites at the Monastero Santa Rosa Hotel & Spa are made up of the original cells from the historic monastery, some of which still have their original architectural details, inlcuding vaulted ceilings. Each room is unique, but all are united by a common air of serenity and spiritual calm which marks the entire complex.

Each room is named for one of the medicinal herbs which is grown in the monastery's garden and is furnished with an elegant, refined decor, with careful attention paid to creating a calming environment which combines physical relaxation and inner peace.
The suites are all unique in their size, decor, and architecture, each with their own singular style and ambience. Some include elegant living and dining areas, or breathtaking terraces with lemon trees and bougainvillea.

The Rosa Suite is more a private residence than a hotel suite. The sumptuously exclusive space is furnished with original furniture and precious antiques from the monastery, and is on two levels for a total floor space measuring 130 squre meters. The view from this stunning suite is spectacular and perfect for a romantic honeymoon or other special occasion.

Heaven on the Plate

The hotel's Chef Christoph Bob creates innovative Mediterranean dishes prepared exclusively with products from the monastery's own garden, served with all the elegance of luxury fine dining.

A meal on the terrace of Monastero Santa Rosa Hotel & Spa in an extraordinary experience, with the best gourmet cuisine served against the backdrop of one of the most dramatic views along the Amalfi Coast.

For formal dining, choose the restaurant terrace or dining rooms. For a light lunch, you can order poolside and enjoy your meal while basking in the sun overlooking the sea...

Exclusive Wellness in the Thermal Suite

The Spa at Monastero Santa Rosa was dug directly from the cliff rock, and seems worlds away from the stress of daily life. Relax in the tiepidarium, steam room, ice fountain, sauna cave, massage pool, spa shower, and foot baths.

For true indulgence, the Spa Suite includes beds for beauty and water treatments and a private outdoor sundeck shaded by a lush pergola.

‘Have you ever stayed at another hotel as nice as this’

Oct 13, 2025
As we left our breakfast table after 9 fabulous nights at the Monastero, a delightful honeymooning couple on the next table asked us if we had ever stayed at another hotel as nice. We had asked ourselves the same question the previous evening and reminisced about a variety of hotels that we loved across several continents. However, we concluded that the Monastero Santa Rosa was very special in every way and had exceeded our expectations in its history, beauty, amazing location, and quality in all areas. Kudos to Ferdinando and every member of the team for their passion and generosity making for a truly memorable guest experience. You are the best of the best.

Utter Perfection

This was our second visit within a twelve month period . Our first visit was for seven nights in a Deluxe Sea View Room. Everything about this trip was complete perfection in every aspect, hence the second trip. Only this time we learnt from our mistake….. we came for 9 nights not 7 ! We also upgraded to the Deluxe Suite (Salvia) which ticked all our boxes. Our only worry this time was whether perfection could be repeated a second time ? My goodness - what an absolute waste of worry that was. Not only did it deliver, it totally exceeded all our expectations once again. Truly sublime and utterly Magical, thank you to every single member of the SR team you all went above and beyond to make our second stay even better. Ferdinando the GM is truly lovely and really has Santa Rosa in his heart - it’s not actually just a team it’s a family Thank you to EVERYONE Antony & Helen

Pros and Cons

Sep 10, 2025
We were very much looking forward to our stay here, especially after reading the reviews here. We just spent five days there. On the positive side, the staff is really lovely and goes out of their way to be friendly and helpful. The outdoor areas are truly lovely. Our agent kept us busy but gave us one day off and we spent time at the pool - it was wonderful and beautiful. There are two negatives. It is a converted monastery. The room was very small and certainly not a place we looked forward to returning to. But the worst part of the experience was our dinner there. My fish dish was bland and uninteresting and my wife's pasta dish was inedible. We did appreciate the shuttle which was readily available to us. But I doubt we would return.

Charming hotel on the Amalfi Cliffs

We have been returning to this beautiful hotel/spa for years now, The service is impeccable, the location unique and it’s among our favorite places to relax and unwind in private pampered luxury. It’s easy to see why it took, Bianca, the owner a decade to convert this ancient monastery previously run by the nuns into a world class people sanctuary. This place never ever disappoints.
