VESPERA
Eighteen rooms carved into a cliff, above a sea that changes its mind by the hour.
A house above the sea, kept the old way
Vespera was a lighthouse keeper's estate before it was a hotel, and it has kept the habit of watching the water. Terracotta floors, lime-washed walls, linen dried in the wind — nothing here is in a hurry, and neither are you.
Days are simple: swim before breakfast, lunch under the fig tree, an aperitivo as the light turns to brass. We keep the rooms few so the silence stays intact.

What the hours are for
Dine at Àmara
Twelve tables, one menu, whatever the boats brought in that morning. Candlelight does the rest.
The tableBathe at La Fonte
A spring runs beneath the house. We built a bathhouse around it — steam, stone, and oil pressed from our own olives.
The bathhouseDrift the coast
Our skipper, Tommaso, knows every cove between here and the point. Bring nothing. Lunch is in the hold.
The water
At the end of the coast road
Alvaréa is not on the way to anywhere, which is rather the point. The road ends at our gate; the sea takes it from there.
