Galatea, il cui nome significa “dalla pelle bianco-latte” deriva da quello della ninfa marina di cui si narra nella mitologia greca. All’appartamento si accede dal giardino superiore terrazzato con diversi belvedere, condiviso con alcuni degli altri appartamenti. L’appartamento fu costruito agli inizi dello scorso secolo sul solaio di copertura dell’Eremo, dalla precedente proprietaria la contessa Heleine Hussey Stead e si accedeva da una scala interna poi abolita.

Una piccola porta d’ingresso che fiancheggia la cupola dell’adiacente Chiesa di San Francesco, introduce all’ appartamento composto da: una spaziosissima camera da letto panoramica con letto matrimoniale king size ed una vasca freestanding posta ai piedi del letto in posizione panoramicissima con bagno in camera completo di doccia. Una seconda camera da letto matrimoniale, “l’alcova”,volutamente realizzata in maniera non comune, con un letto matrimoniale king size, inserito in una nicchia rivestita di doghe in legno grezzo tinteggiate di bianco; il letto è stato posizionato all’altezza di una finestra con affaccio sul giardino superiore; la camera è servita da un secondo bagno con una spaziosa doccia. Un’ampia zona soggiorno con caminetto e grandi finestre sul terrazzo antistante. Un angolo cucina completamente attrezzato separato. Tutti gli ambienti sono climatizzati. Sia la prima camera matrimoniale che il soggiorno affacciano ad ovest su di un grande terrazzo a livello attrezzato, dal quale sembra di poter sfiorare il mare che bagna la splendida spiaggia di San Francesco, incorniciato da palme secolari.

Il terrazzo è dotato di un pergolato perfettamente vivibile in tutte le stagioni, da cui ammirare gli splendidi tramonti ed, all’ orizzonte, il profilo dell’isola di Ventotene.

L’appartamento è stato completamente ristrutturato nell’ autunno del 2015 con la supervisione dell’architetto d’interni Giuliano Andrea dell’Uva. Questa ristrutturazione è stata finalizzata al ripristino dell’originale struttura abitativa di inizio secolo scorso; laddove c’era un unico grande ambiente adibito dalla precedente proprietaria inglese a stanza da letto, poi modificato a seguito di una ristrutturazione degli anni 80, oggi è stato ricreato un unico spazio ottico comprendente il soggiorno e la zona letto separate da un’ampia parete vetrata. Questa filosofia realizzativa ha determinato poi la distribuzione degli spazi abitativi dell’intero appartamento. Nella ristrutturazione sono stati largamente impiegati materiali moderni come resina e pitture speciali unitamente a materiali tradizionali come il ferro lavorato artigianalmente in maniera molto semplice ed il comune vetro, il tutto armonizzato con elementi di arredo di design.

Lovely few days at the beach. The apartment is in a fab location looking (Email hidden by Airbnb) fy beds and AC much appreciated! Amazing views from huge terrace. 5 mins walk down to the beach and restaurants. We did a stroll along the coast into Forio in around 30 minutes for an ice cream. Very nice little town. Felt like a very authentic Italian holiday. - 25 Giu 2022

It was perfect for our stay. Very clean with all amenities we needed, beautiful terrace overlooking the beach and quite a nice location not too far from Forio, but nicely off the beaten path so it feels kore intimate/ secluded. Close walk to botanical gardens and we even walked to Negombo (which was 30 minutes).
Rita was our point of contact, very responsive, friendly and helpful!
Highly recommend - 02 Giu 2022

Eine traumhaft schöne Anlage mit wunderbaren Details sowohl in der Wohnung, als auch auf den umliegenden Terrassen und Gärten. Der Blick war herrlich und wir wurden von der Sonne reichlich verwöhnt durch die Ausrichtung der zu der Wohnung gehörenden Terrasse. Die Kommunikation mit der Gastgeberin Rita war absolut zuvorkommend und sehr schnell. Sie war bei der Übergabe der Schlüssel sehr freundlich und hat uns mit Tips versorgt. Die Lage ist auch im sofern herrlich, dass man fußläufig diverse Restaurants und ein Mini-Mart erreicht für den täglichen Bedarf. Die Stadt Forio ist auch entspannt zu Fuß zu erreichen am Wasser entlang in 15-20 min. Also alles in einem hatten wir einen schönen Aufenthalt und würden diesen Ort weiter empfehlen! - 06 Mag 2022

Le site est splendide et l'architecture du bâtiment est à la fois respectueuse de l'histoire des lieux et innovante dans l'esthétique et le confort moderne. L'appartement Galatéa est spacieux et pratique. Nous avons pu nous reposer convenablement du voyage et des randonnées précédentes grâce au calme de l'environnement et au grand confort de la literie. Un grand merci à Rita pour sa bonne humeur et sa disponibilité exceptionnelle. Les échanges sur (Hidden by Airbnb) , avec la traduction, ont limité nos difficultés d'expression, car nous ne pratiquons pas bien l'italien ni l'anglais.
Nous avons pu nous ravitailler facilement dans la petite supérette du quartier à des prix raisonnables.
Nos garderons un souvenir émerveillé de notre séjour à Ischia et à l'Eremo di Montevirgine ! - 21 Apr 2022

Superbe logement avec une vue imprenable sur la mer.
Restaurants et plage à proximité.
Seul bémol : vérifier que tout le matériel concernant les enfants est bien présent .
Nous avons dû réclamer le matelas du lit bébé ( résolu rapidement) et manque de chaise haute sur tout le séjour. - 15 Apr 2022

Thia is an exeptional property, so don’t miss a chance to stay here! The building has an interesting history and therefore there are lots of authentic design elements (hundreds years old) in the apartment. The view to the sea is just stunning from a wide terrace. There are 2 bedrooms with all amenities needed. We were travelling with a baby and everything was taken care of. Special thanks to Rita who answered all our inquiries, she was a perfect host. It was a pleasure to stay here and we would definitely return! - 13 Apr 2022

Nous avons passé 2 jours dans l'appartement Galatéa avec nos 2 enfants de 12 et 14 ans. L'emplacement et la vue depuis la terrasse sont juste parfaits. Magnifiques couchers de soleil. Très bon accueil de la part de Rita. Très proche de la plage et du jardin La Mortella (à visiter). A 20 minutes à pied du centre de Forio. Nous n'avions pas louer de voiture, tout peut se faire à pied et en bus (plusieurs lignes passent par Forio). - 31 Ott 2021

5 star rating “Tramonto da mozzare il fiato!” Incantevole a dir poco. L'Eremo è uno dei luoghi più romantici e suggestivi che abbia mai visitato. Il salone col pianoforte è da bocca aperta, appartamenti e camere di classe, il tramonto da mozzare il fiato! - 27 Gen 2020

What an amazingly beautiful restored apartment! Such a special place. Quiet and tranquil. Minutes to San Francisco beach, restaurants, and a short walk to Forio. My husband and I loved the stylish space and felt very fortunate to stay here. Rita made our stay even more incredible with her warm welcome and tons of helpful tips for us. She’s a star! We would absolutely return here. - 29 Set 2019

this part of the island is Wonderful and less crowded. walking distance to the beautiful gardens and the amazing spa that is a MUST see. The airbnb is amazing! The view is stunning! We stayed in one night just to take advantage of the balcony and the sunset. I miss this place already. Ischia is a must visit place!! Forget Capri, Ischia does not disappoint! - 06 Giu 2019

We we’re surprised based on our other VRBO experiences. Very minimal supplies. Two rolls of toilet paper and 4 coffee capsules. Communication wasn’t good and when I expressed surprise was told “it wasn’t a hotel” by Rita. The gardens were beautiful and the one bedroom was lovely. The view was spectacular.This was this first time I booked a place that wasn’t a super host and didn’t have any reviews so my own fault we were disappointed. - 05 Giu 2019

Deux très beaux appartements décorés avec beaucoup de goût, très agréables à vivre. celui d'Ischia a une vue absolument magnifique face à la mer et une terrasse très agréable pour prendre le petit déjeuner ou l'apéro, il est situé dans la partie nord et plus sauvage de l'île proche de Forio d'où arrive le Ferry depuis Naples. L'appartement de Naples est parfait pour un court séjour car moins d'intimité mais avec une véritable atmosphère italienne et une parfaite touche de modernité. Giuseppe et Rita sont très réactifs aux demandes, les échanges se font facilement par (Hidden by Airbnb) ce qui est très pratique. - 18 Mag 2019

We had the pleasure of staying at the Galatea apartment for four nights in May. The apartment is stunning and exceeded our expectations. We made a couple of dinners at the apartment and loved using the patio. We used the local bus system which worked out well and toured most of the island. The apartment is a five minute walk to the beach and approximately 20 minutes into the town of Forio. It was a pleasure dealing with Giuseppe who promptly answered any questions ahead of our trip and Rita who checked us in and was there for help during our stay. - 09 Mag 2019

5 star rating “Settimana indimenticabile” Terrazzo incantevole con vista straordinaria sul mare e sui tramonti,ogni giorno diversi.Alloggio spazioso, arredato con gusto e fantasia, ideale per 4 persone. Piacevole alla sera cenare in balcone con stupenda vista sulla sottostante spiaggia.
l'appartamento non è vicinissimo a Forio ma il paese è raggiungibile con una comoda passeggiata lungo mare che in circa 20 minuti porta al centro, localini e ristoranti sono comunque nelle vicinanze. Il bellissimo parco botanico di Mortella è invece vicinissimo e sicuramente da visitare. - 30 Ott 2018

The Eremo is an amazing historical building just outside Forio. The apartment is full of design details and has a wonderful terrace with a great view on the sea. During our stay everything worked fine, communication with was quick, check-in and check-out with Rita was nice and very friendly. Ideal for 3 persons but also for 4 is fine.
You can reach the beach 10 minutes walking downhill. (uphill to go back 🙂 There are good restaurants bars around: Nicola is a really good easy going place from breakfast to dinner. I would also recommend La Sciavica restaurant. - 17 Ago 2018

5 star rating “Meraviglioso ” Elegante, affascinante, confortevole, curatissimo in ogni dettaglio, tutto studiato e pensato per coccolare gli ospiti in una location da sogno...
Abbiamo soggiornato nell’appartamento Galatea e tutto è stato fantastico, Rita ci ha accolti e subito si è prodigata perché il nostro soggiorno fosse il più comodo e rilassante possibile, abbiamo potuto noleggiare uno scooter a ottimi prezzi, ci ha consigliato ristoranti in zona davvero ottimi e ha fatto sì che potessimo restare all’Eremo oltre l’orario di check out e fino al nostro transfer per il porto anch’ esso organizzato da lei! Inoltre, avendole detto che eravamo lì per il compleanno di mia moglie ci ha omaggiati da parte di Giuseppe di una bottiglia di limoncello di Ischia. Non sapremmo cosa altro dire per esaltare tutte le qualità di questo indimenticabile soggiorno, possiamo solo ringraziare il sig. Giuseppe e Rita e iniziare a pensare quando ritornare... grazie ancora - 26 Giu 2018

5 star rating “Meraviglioso residence a pochi passi dal mare” L'appartamento è bellissimo, ha una vista mozzafiato dove si possono ammirare dei tramonti meravigliosi.
Il Proprietario Giuseppe e la sua famiglia sono stati molto ospitali e attenti alle ns esigenze. Molto cortese anche il personale.
A pochi metri dal mare ideale per famiglie con bambini. I miei piccoli lo adoravano. Terrazzo molto spazioso dove abbiamo cenato ammirando il bellissimo panorama.
Ho soggiornato in vari comuni di quest'isola molto spesso, ma questo Residence con la sua storia e Sant'Angelo sono uno dei più bei posti da visitare.
Ci ritorneremo senz'altro anche in altri periodi dell'anno. - 16 Ott 2017

The location and view are the strongest points for the property. We stayed here for 4 nights with outer two little kids and found that it was ideally situated for beach access - a 5 minute walk. The pictures were pretty accurate in showing most of the property. Note that the kitchen is very small. We did not use it much at all. Luckily there are many good restaurants around. We had a bit of sporadic connectivity issues with the wifi which were remedied relatively quickly by the host. The host was very responsive. Very quiet place, overall clean inside - we were quite happy with our stay. - 26 Mag 2017

Nous avons été accueillis par Rita qui était toujours disponible et souriante. Elle nous a trouvé une voiture dans la journée, le week-end du 15/08, un exploit. Elle nous a donné de bons conseils, nous a même imprimé nos billets de bateau. L'appartement est magnifique et très bien placé, une vue sur la mer extraordinaire. La voiture s'avère être bien utile pour visiter l'île pour ceux qui préfèrent éviter les plages bondées. Nous avons adoré Ischia et ses termes, ses sources d'eau chaude et sa simplicité. Nous y retournerons - 19 Ago 2016

We had a lovely stay at Eremo di Montevergine. The location is brilliant if you want to be near a beach - San Francesco beach is only a 10 minute walk & is unspoilt & not too touristy. There are some lovely little cafes and restaurants including da Nicola along the sea front.
There's a stunning view from Galatea of the sea, which you can see as soon as you open the door. The apartment is in a building that you reach through a private Gate & lovely gardens with cactus and pretty flowers.
The apartment is nice with good size bedrooms. And a freestanding bath in the bedroom which is unusual & luxurious.
There's a lovely terrace where you can look at the sea & watch the sun go down.

The only drawback is the kitchen which is tiny. It's difficult to cook in as its so small, and it needs to be a bit better equipped - we cooked on the 2nd night & we couldn't find a few things such as cheese grater, Chopping board, colander, wooden spoon & cafetière. The lady that managed the property was super helpful & helped us book a hire car. We asked for the kitchen equipment that was missing & she bought it the next day.
However the dishwasher was broken so we had to wash up.
There were no recycle bins which was a shame.
The apartment was a good size and the bedroom our daughter slept in was great for a child or a couple - the bed was actually more comfy than our bed which was pretty hard & could do with a mattress topper to make it a bit softer.
we didn't meet the owner but he was helpful before our stay when he Offered to organise a taxi to meet us from our boat.
It was a perfect location, close to beautiful gardens & thermal spas as well as the beach.
There were no pictures or decoration in the flat which made it feel quite monastic, so personally I feel like it could do with a few pictures on the walls, but we enjoyed our stay there apart from the hard bed! It was very clean and a quiet spot, with a stunning view and pretty gardens. - 06 Mag 2016

Absolute heaven!
The place, the verandas, the view, the location, the hosts...all perfect. We stayed with our two girls (10 & 14) and had relaxing few days enjoying the very close San Francesco beach and restaurants. We only left the area once to try the world famous Poseidon mineral pools. The hosts were fantastic, helpful and accommodating. - 23 Giu 2015 
Etienne AvatarEtienne
We loved the place. We spent 3 days there with our 3-years old child and everything has been perfect. The apartment is nice and very quiet. 2 real bedrooms. Amazing view from the terrace (if you like to watch the sea and sunsets). Just a 3 minutes walk to the beach (on a little road used by the cars, that has to be mentioned even if we never felt unsafe walking there), there is a Mini-market a little further (5-10 minutes).
Francesca is responsive and helpful. Someone (Rita) picked us at the port when we arrived and really helped us throughout our stay (for example to rent a car) we could really contact her whenever we wanted.
As Forio is about 25 minutes away by walking, it may be useful to rent a car (it is possible to park it next to the apartment). - 12 Lug 2014
