High above the Bay of San Montano, this five-star hideaway mixes breezy Mediterranean style with the island’s spa tradition.

Three hectares of lemon-scented gardens, a panoramic thermal pool park and a rare sea-view spa set the scene for indulgent downtime with knockout vistas across the Gulf of Naples.

It’s a dream base for spa-focused couples and style-minded friends who want languid days between hot-spring soaks, long lunches and sunset cocktails.

Despite the hilltop hush, getting around is effortless: a complimentary shuttle runs to San Montano Beach and Lacco Ameno from morning until late, so it’s easy to dip between the resort and the sandy cove below or wander the village promenade before drifting back for piano-bar aperitivi.

Hydrofoils from Naples make arrivals straightforward, and the concierge can line up boats for Capri or Procida when the mood strikes.
