This Retreat is situated in the historical heart of Matera.

The sassi (stone settlement) have been turned into 18 romantic boutique bedrooms, simply furnished, candlelit and calming. Restored through a careful and conservative process conducted with the utmost respect for the local cultural heritage, each cave reveals the original shape and materials. The interior design, the respectful and minimalistic approach of the property is reflected in the plain furniture elements. The guests will experience a particular atmosphere evoking the cultural and human history of the Sassi of Matera.

Matera is one of the oldest towns in the world, known as la città sotterranea (“the underground city”),
the Sassi and the park of the Rupestrian Churches were named a Unesco World Heritage Site in 1993.
In 2019, Matera was declared a European Capital of Culture.
