Tripplo’s hotel summary
Tripplo’s analysis · Updated 21 October 2026 · How we review hotels
Those seeking secluded relaxation in a historic setting will appreciate Monastero Santa Rosa Hotel & Spa. The hotel stands out with its dramatic cliffside infinity pool, richly preserved monastic architecture, terraced Mediterranean gardens, and complimentary thermal spa access. However, its isolated cliffside location means guests have limited local nightlife options nearby.
Guests score it 9.7 out of 10 — the average across the 18 hotels we list on Amalfi Coast is 9.5.
- Suspended over the Gulf of Salerno, the heated elliptical infinity pool blends seamlessly with the horizon, offering striking maritime views over the Amalfi Coast.
- The 17th-century former monastery retains its original vaulted ceilings, wooden doors, and historic structural integrity, creating a quiet, contemplative atmosphere.
- Perched high on a cliff in Conca dei Marini, the hotel is set back from major hubs. However, a complimentary shuttle regularly transports guests to nearby Amalfi.
- The surrounding village is quiet and lacks late-night dining or entertainment. Guests seeking vibrant nightlife will need to travel to Positano or Amalfi.

Reviews from Google“Wow, we just got back from 2 nights here at the end of our Italian trip and it was just magic. The food, location and the absolutely amazing and hardworking staff are all exceptional. The hotel is so serene and peaceful and it was just what we needed to end our trip. The spa facilities are stunning and we had a wonderful massage. The food was some of the best food we have ever had in a hotel before. My husband said his breakfast was one of the best he's ever hard. The Michelin restaurant is a must try, we had such a special evening there. The staff go above and beyond and all work so hard, nothing is too much of an ask. We are already planning a trip back next year.”
“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.”
“My wife and I just returned from a three‑night stay with two friends, and this hotel was exceptional. The views, gardens, and pool are absolutely breathtaking, and every meal we enjoyed on the property was outstanding. Most importantly, the staff were consistently kind, attentive, and genuinely happy/excited to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. We will absolutely be returning. A fun bonus is the intimate feel of the hotel—only 20 rooms—which creates a friendly, familiar atmosphere among guests. We met several couples and families during our stay, and those connections absolutely enhanced our experience.”
“This is one of our favorite hotels of all time! Everything was truly remarkable. Not only are the views amazing, but it's also like a museum with some of the original furniture from the 17th century sprinkled throughout. We were blown away at every turn. The spa was also fabulous - it was one of the best facials I've ever had. Food was also phenomenal - don't skip breakfast! They also lavish you with hospitality - with little gifts left in your room morning and night. It was such a delight! We were beyond happy about our stay here and it's worth every penny.”
“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.”
