THE NEW PARADISE: ISCHIA

I would like that this space of my web site will be the beginning of a journey together. 

A journey  through thousand places, cultures and different modus vivendi … all amazing and unique. 

Travel means open your eyes, draw new horizons and expand existing ones.

I will start this “number 0” from Ischia, an island of the archipelago Campano, that I preserve a precious memory that today I want to share with you. 

Just arrived in the small port, you will be involved with a magical atmosphere; It’s a very big island: in fact, inside it co-exist well within the six municipalities, and the sea, a large natural pool those blue sky as the embedding to want wrap completely. 

Ischia is an ‘island of  thousand pearls … From the charming church of S. Maria del Soccorso or Villa La Mortella, your trip here will have many memories to preserve. People that  come for the first time should try the croissant of Calise cafèteria, it is present  in the island with many estaurants and cafe; however, my advice is for the historic bar near Ischia’s port, with stylish fornitures and a really elegant garden.

For beach lovers, there are very beautiful private beaches; those that are more advice Il Giardino dell ‘Eden and Coco a Mare ; you will surely be kidnapped by a spectacular view of the Castello Aragonese,  true jewel of Ischia. 

After a tasty lunch at the Regina Isabella , in my opinion one of the most charming hotels in the world, your  relax continues within several  Spa centres. In fact the island is famous for its multipurpose facilities, the most beautiful are definitely Necombo and Poseidon

The evening rises late in Ischia: it starts with an aperitif in the little square of Casa Micciola (municipality) to continue with a fine dinner at the restaurant ” Il monastero”, on top of the Castello Aragonese, or for a romantic evening, I really recommend Umberto a Mare,  must of Ischia, where you seem to have dinner on the terrace of a ship, illuminated by the moon and accompanied by a white wine from the island and a truly sensational pasta with swordfish. For all lovers of gastronomy excellence, I suggest an other restaurant,  Mosaico, inside Villa Manzi Hotel , with two Michelin stars. 

Your holiday here can’t end without some interesting shopping: In the island there are the best international brands distributed by “La Caprese”  boutiques, and for well being lovers  here is created and distributed the cosmetics line ” Ischia Termae”, perfect for a  refined gift .
