Salina


Immerse yourself in luxury at this five-star boutique resort surrounded by well-tended Malvasia vineyards, halfway between Santa Marina and Malfa. Sharp white decor prevails in the 20 rooms with terraces looking straight out to smoking Stromboli and six brand-new suites in the picturesque 19th-century lighthouse. Tennis courts, poolside massages, wine tasting and vineyard visits complete this perfect vision of island chic.
