Ischia is Italy’s serene and soulful island treasure—a place to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect.
This volcanic island in the Bay of Naples is world-renowned for its natural thermal hot springs, bubbling up from ancient aquifers and offering healing waters that locals have cherished for centuries.
• Warm, mineral-rich springs and legendary spa gardens
• Golden beaches and dramatic coastlines, of the Tyrrhenian Sea
• Rolling vineyards and fertile hillsides, producing some of the region’s most delicious local wines like Biancolella and Forastera
• Verdant, untamed landscapes, where lemon groves and wildflowers thrive
• A laid-back, authentic rhythm of life, where time slows, local markets welcome you and every moment feels sacred.
Whether you’re wandering seaside villages, sipping island-grown wines, or watching the sunrise and sunsets over the
Sea from the Villa’s terrace, Ischia invites you to live simply, beautifully, and fully.
Villa Sirena’s mineral springs and spa gardens offer a sanctuary of renewal. Heated by volcanic earth, the thermal waters soothe body and spirit, while lush gardens surround you in fragrant peace. Soak, unwind, and breathe deeply as the healing essence of Ischia melts stress and restores your natural vitality.
Golden sands and rocky coves surround Ischia, a lush island where turquoise waters meet rugged volcanic cliffs. From the tranquil shores of Maronti Beach to the hidden hot springs of Sorgeto Bay, each stretch offers something unique. Sunbathe by crystal seas, stroll seaside villages, or dip into warm, healing waters while the sun sets beyond the Tyrrhenian horizon.
Terraced vineyards cling to Ischia’s sunlit slopes, where ancient vines thrive in volcanic soil rich with minerals. From Biancolella to Forastera, each grape tells a story of sea breeze and sun. Wander stone paths through hillside estates, sip crisp whites with citrus notes, and savor the tradition that has shaped this island’s wine culture for centuries.
Sun-drenched lemon groves blanket the hillsides of Ischia, where fragrant trees flourish in fertile volcanic soil. Their golden fruit hangs heavy in the Mediterranean breeze, perfuming the air. Stroll shaded paths, sip fresh limoncello, and experience the zest and beauty of this island’s citrus-rich tradition.
At Villa Sirena Hotel in Ischia, fine dining is an experience of elegance and flavor. Each dish is crafted with the island’s freshest produce- herbs from the garden, sun-ripened vegetables, and locally sourced ingredients. Dine on a terrace above the sea, where every bite celebrates the taste of the land and tradition.
Life flows gently on Ischia, where mornings begin with a morning pick me up by the sea and days unfold at a sun-warmed pace. Locals linger in piazzas, laughter echoing through cobbled streets. Meals stretch for hours, and evenings end with moonlit strolls. Here, time slows, inviting you to simply be- present, peaceful, and at ease.
Nestled between the shimmering Tyrrhenian Sea and the verdant slopes of Mount Epomeo, Villa Sirena Hotel offers a harmonious blend of traditional Ischian charm and modern comfort. Each room is thoughtfully designed to provide guests with a serene retreat, capturing the essence of the island’s natural beauty.
