Monastero Santa Rosa Introduces “Health & Hike” Package. The 17th-century monastery-turned-luxury boutique hotel and spa on Italy’s Amalfi Coast, is offering a new “Health & Hike” package to experience Amalfi “off the coast” in the shoulder season from October 7 – 30, 2016. From its uniquely secluded cliffside setting, Monastero Santa Rosa affords guests sweeping views of the Amalfi coastline and the Mediterranean, with easy access to the area’s best hiking spots.
The package includes a guided hike led by a local expert, taking guests on a two- to three-hour exploration through hidden parts of Amalfi that are rarely seen by visitors. For lunch, guests can stop for a true Italian picnic prepared by the resort’s chef, Christoph Bob.
Following the hike, guests are invited to cool down and detox in Monastero Santa Rosa’s world-class spa, regarded as the best on the Amalfi Coast, with a Signature Arnica Body Wrap Treatment. This 60-minute treatment is designed to relieve aches and pains, incorporating Santa Maria Novella products; it includes a hot foot soak in volcanic mineral salts, a tension-releasing massage, and a body mask to offer cooling muscle relief.
Also included in this offer is the opportunity to learn an entirely new approach to Italian cooking, with a focus on light and local fare. Chef Bob will guide guests through the property’s vegetable garden, picking produce right from the grounds, and will demonstrate how to prepare a selection of dishes to enjoy together at lunch.
