20 bedrooms villa, 2450 m²

Forio, Naples (province)

In the green heart of Ischia, nestled within a lush botanical garden, stands a unique residence that combines luxury and sustainability. The complex, the result of a transformation into a prestigious estate, covers around 2,450 sqm of interior space and houses 20 independent apartments, each with a sea view. Surrounding it, a tropical-Mediterranean oasis of about 6,500 sqm embraces the buildings in a natural landscape of rare beauty.
More than just a property, it is a vibrant cultural hub of the island: the communal areas are designed to host exhibitions, conferences, theater performances, and concerts, contributing significantly to the local artistic life. Its location is strategic, between Forio d'Ischia and the famous beaches of Cava dell'Isola and Citara, with spectacular sunsets mirrored over the sea. Ischia, renowned for its lush nature, thermal springs, and millennia of history (nearly three thousand years), offers here a perfect blend of culture, nature, art, and gastronomy.

The botanical garden is among the most important collections in Europe for succulent and tropical plants. Inside lies a true acclimatization park: across 6,500 sqm, the widest and most diverse collection in the field is gathered, with over 5,000 specimens belonging to about 400 species, plus around 200 additional specimens of Cycads, Palms, and Musaceae. Among the rarities stands the Wollemia nobilis, a Jurassic-era conifer once thought to be extinct until its rediscovery in 1994. This botanical microcosm, featured in several documentaries, is an open-air laboratory and an ideal setting for events dedicated to culture, nature, gastronomy, and music.

The architecture favors eco-sustainable solutions: the 20 units, all with a private garden or terrace overlooking the sea, are powered by solar and photovoltaic panels and supported by a water recovery and recycling system for the thermal pools. The interiors, both elegant and functional, offer constant glimpses of the deep blue sea and the lush botanical collection.

The residential offer is extensive and modular: studios, apartments, and rooms of various sizes, bright and comfortable, furnished in typical Mediterranean style with pastel colors. From the spacious panoramic rooftop, one enjoys a rare view of the Ischia coastline, while a private annex guarantees privileged access to the solarium area, the panoramic pool zone, and a complete wellness circuit: outdoor pool at ambient temperature, indoor thermal pool with hydromassage, Turkish bath, and cozy sea-view solarium areas.

Within the park, there is also a lounge bar immersed in nature—perfect for private events and sunset cocktails—an ancient cistern restored and transformed into an exhibition space for art and photography shows, conferences, and yoga sessions, as well as a flower shop that highlights the site's botanical vocation. The setting, overlooking the sea and nestled among the vineyards of Mount Epomeo, is just a short distance from the village of Forio, with a magnificent viewpoint from which to admire the sun sinking into the sea at dusk.

Choosing this property means embracing an excellent lifestyle in harmony with the ecosystem and the island's history: a rare opportunity to experience Ischia in a prestigious and sustainable way, with exclusive services and a natural setting that captivates the senses. Here, beauty, sustainability, and comfort blend into a truly unparalleled living experience.
