What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
This intimate six-room adults-only escape feels more like a private guest house — an impression that’s only reinforced by the enthusiastic presence of Lisa and José, your Italian-Spanish hosts.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.

The rooms
Four rooms open directly onto the central courtyard. Upstairs, the Pasitea suite tucks a deep bathtub under historic timbers.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Built-in daybeds sit under a reed canopy beside the saltwater plunge pool, looking out across rustic tile roofs.
At the table
Chef José cooks for just six tables beside arched courtyard windows, serving homemade sourdough and natural wines.
How it began

The fifteenth-century building once housed a silversmith workshop and a cape factory. The owners spent eight years restoring it by hand.
