A rare flower blooming on the Amalfi coast: Hotel Santa Caterina, located on the magical shores of Amalfi, known as the “divine coasts gifted by God to Italy” with its thousands of shades of the sea, its quaint towns that animate the region and its pastel colors, promises its guests a paradise between the sea and the sky.
Are you very tired? Is everything going bad? Do you want to start life over? The cure for all is on the lemon-scented Amalfi coast, the land of fertile bougainvillea that carries all the colors of heaven. Hotel Santa Caterina rises like the “rare white flower of heaven” in the region, which is frequented by princesses and princesses such as Andre Gide, John Steinbeck, Italo Calvino, Liz Taylor. The hotel, arranged in the style of an Art Nouveau beach villa, has a fascinating atmosphere inside and out. Surrounded by the natural beauty of the Amalfi coast and its flower and vegetable gardens, the winds of beauty, prosperity and hospitality are blowing.
Hotel Santa Caterina deserves all the adjectives with its location, decor and facilities. But most of all, it is the family-friendly staff that make this place such a pleasant place to stay. It must be because of this, it turns into the second address of its guests from the first day.
Overlooking the sacred shores, this epic white palace sits on a summit that descends towards the sea over a series of panoramic terraces. The journey to the sea through the terraces surrounded by bougainvillea, lemon and orange groves is truly fascinating. Ever-growing since its establishment in 1904, the hotel serves its guests with 54 rooms and 16 suites. Some of the luxurious and elegant mansions in their gardens have private pools overlooking the infinity of the Mediterranean. The luxurious and comfortable embrace of the hotel’s private beach is easily reached by two hotel elevators carved into the rocks. All kinds of comfort are also considered for guests who want to do sports while relaxing on the beach, burn in the solarium or unwind in a heated swimming pool filled with sea water.
Guests who want to enjoy the sea and the sun on the beach all day are also considered: Italian pizzas; snacks; the seaside restaurant that prepares grilled fish plates works for them. Hotel Santa Caterina also has two panoramic restaurants with sea views, combining Amalfi cuisine with creativity. The Glicine restaurant in the main building carries a Michelin star. This attractive degree also turns into a reference point for international gastronomy.
All rooms of the hotel, which includes vegetation, reflect the classical Mediterranean architecture and the character of Amalfi: the spacious rooms with white painted walls, sea views and balconies welcome their guests with all their charm. The style of the hotel, where pastel transitions suitable for the nature and colors of the region are preferred, is reflected in every corner with painted ceramic majolicas and marbles.
The hotel takes its guests from today’s world and takes them to a paradise of peace, pleasure and happiness. However, those who need today and communication are also considered. For them, the technological infrastructure of the rooms is constantly being renewed.
