The property has undergone radical renovation over the last three years, combining design details Mid-Century with the classic Mediterranean style. They dominate the white and blue shades, next to the typical hand painted geometric tiles, antique furniture and handcrafted pieces by local artisans.
To reach the hotel's private beach, guests have an elevator in the rock or, alternatively, a series of walkways and stairs between the fragrant terraced gardens of olive trees and lemons.
Inspired by the origins of the building, dating back to the 1960s, the owners focused on the original features to create an unmistakably Italian "house", a passionate teamwork that saw committed designers and landscapers to ensure that each corner of the property reflected the artistic touch and craftsmanship of the region of Campania.
The result is that the interiors and gardens are a showcase of the excellence of "Made in Italy": from the pieces "Collezione Heritage" by Molteni & C, to objects personalized by designers of craft furniture such as Tognova and Lisar, to the interventions tailored by local architects, artists and artisans.

Borgo Santandrea is much more a house than a hotel and we look forward to welcoming our first guests this summer. "
