Therasia Resort
This hotel's stunning location boasts views over the entire Aeolian Islands; Lipari, the largest of the islands with its majestic Faraglioni, and the islands of Salina, Stromboli, Panarea, Alicudi and Filicudi, all within easy access by hydrofoil.

The dazzling white hotel stands out against the promontory of Vulcanello fragranced by the clean sea air and delicate wild flowers. Respecting its environment only local materials have been used to restructure the hotel; molten rock from Mount Etna, Sicilian terracotta and cedar and olive wood.
