Monastero Santa Rosa

These 44sq m Deluxe Suites each boast a spacious bedroom and ensuite – both with sea views. Bathrooms contain deep sunken bath tubs with heated towel rails and a walk-in rain shower. The suite’s decor is nautically blue and neutral with mahogany features, including antique desks built into the walls, and mod cons including a flatscreen TV, free WiFi, a minibar/mini-fridge, and individually controlled air-conditioning. Black-and-white photographs of the monastery hang on the walls, evoking a sense of the building’s former life.

The Open Space Deluxe Suite is more like a mini apartment than a hotel room, with an emphasis (as the name suggests) on space.

The suite includes a flatscreen TV, WiFi, built-in desk/workspace, minibar/mini-fridge and individually controlled air-conditioning, and the ensuite bathroom has both a walk-in shower and a bath tub.

This suite is perfect for couples seeking total privacy and uninterrupted views.

The contemporary nautical decor is complemented by hand-selected antiques from the monastery.
