Sitting atop the cliffs of Italy’s Amalfi Coast, Casa Angelina offers a slice of modern minimalism on the Mediterranean, with an emphasis on barefoot luxury and top-level gastronomy.
This adults-only hotel serves as a sanctuary, bearing a fresh, white-washed aesthetic that accentuates every space, from the azure sea and sky outside to the contemporary artworks on display inside.
Rooms: Forty Two
Location: Amalfi Coast, Italy
Un Piano nel Cielo (‘a floor in the sky’) is just that – a top-floor terrace with yet more amazing views of the Amalfi coast (and Capri). The indoor area is fitted with wall-spanning coast-facing windows, so you can still admire the vista, and has a special lighting system to make you feel as though you’re dining alfresco. Although, you could also book a table on the canopied terrace, a privileged perch for sunny breakfasts and starlit evening meals.
Ingredients sourced from the Sorrentine Peninsula, and some grown on-site, are crafted into inventive Mediterranean dishes by chef Leopoldo Elefante; and the seasonally updated wine cellar – with more than 3,000 bottles – is overseen by passionate oenophile and sommellier Rosario Landi.
The lavish breakfast buffet is something of an event here with freshly baked pastries, home-made cakes and tarts, warm loaves, smoked salmon, cheeses and meats, fresh fruit, pasta salad, an eggs menu and other hot dishes cooked to order.
Take your drink under clear blue skies on the roof terrace; the hotel occasionally holds events here, such as live cooking shows, and it can be booked exclusively for private dinners.
Otherwise, be refreshed by many limoncello mojitos in the ground-floor Seascape Cocktail Bar, where the barman Fabio works his magic – our money’s on the mixed drinks, but a couple flutes of the hotel’s own-brand champagne by Pierre Mignon are equally welcome – pair with a choice selection from the list of sophisticated stomach-liners.
The Casa Angelina is a sanctuary, a serene haven where guests can forget about the demands of the outside world and focus on themselves.
Tune with your own body, whether that be through morning Pilates, sunset Yoga sessions, Bodybalance, or Aquagym.
Banish any tension and stress by experiencing one of the tantalizing spa sessions, Casa Angelina’s expert massage therapists can tailor any of the offered treatments to your specific needs, whether that be a firm or gentle massage, or something in between.
Products are sourced exclusively from Nectarome, an organic aromatic garden located in the foothills of the Moroccan Atlas Mountains.
