The 45-room ultraluxury resort opened in 2021 after a four-year construction project on challenging cliff terrain, earning a spot on World's 50 Best Hotels list.
Global hospitality group Minor Hotels is pleased to announce the appointment of Estelle Vassallo as General Manager at Anantara Convento di Amalfi Grand Hotel. With two decades of expertise in the hospitality industry, Estelle brings a wealth of experience and a dynamic vision to this unique property, situated eighty metres above the stunning town of Amalfi.
Anantara continues its expansion in Europe, breathing new life into a 13th-century cliffside Capuchin convent in one of Italy's most popular getaway destinations. Following extensive renovations, Anantara Convento di Amalfi Grand Hotel officially opens its doors, welcoming guests with elegantly renovated rooms and suites featuring original elements, exciting dining concepts and a world-class spa, all with panoramic views of the Mediterranean.
Continuing Minor Hotels' European expansion, Anantara Grand Hotel Convento di Amalfi will open in Spring 2023 following extensive restoration and renovation works. The heritage hotel, occupying a 13th-century monastery and former Cappuccini Friars Convent, will be lovingly restored to its original glory. The historic property will reveal new-look accommodation, refreshed dining concepts and a completely redesigned spa, all perched on a clifftop 80 metres above the sea level with spectacular views of the Mediterranean Coast.
Borgo Santandrea, a new cliffside hotel in Amalfi 90 metres above sea level, has opened, following a meticulous, 'slow' and respectful three-year restoration. The hotel is a passion project that unites two Italian families, who bring generations of hospitality experience to Borgo Santandrea. Borgo Santandrea opens with 29 guestrooms and 16 suites, each one offering uninterrupted views of the sea and ancient fisherman's hamlet of Conca dei Marini. The property has undergone a detailed renovation over the last three years, combining Mid-Century design details with classic Mediterranean style. White and blue hues feature throughout, alongside geometric hand-painted tiles, antique furniture, and hand-crafted pieces by local Amalfitano artisans. To reach the hotel's private beach, guests will descend the cliffside in a lift, or amble down a series of walkways and staircases amongst the fragrant terraced gardens of olive and lemon trees.
