Aeolian Islands ITALY Forged in fire and volcanic rock at the beginning of time and named after the Greek demigod of the winds, the Aeolian Islands are where incredible natural seascapes are beautifully complemented by history and mythology. With two active volcanoes on Stromboli and Vulcano, combined with the rugged cliffs and blackened rock rising sharply out of the sapphire sea, it is little wonder that Greek mythology also had this as the place where Hephaestus, the god of craftsmen, had his workshop. The islands are collectively listed as a UNESCO Heritage Site for their unique landscapes, and on Vulcano you can go on treks to further explore the otherworldly landscapes of Gran Cratere, take a dip in the relaxing mud baths and lounge on the black beaches of Spiagge di Vulcano, which stand in stark contrast to the white waves and pebbles on the neighbouring island of Lippari. On the Aeolian Islands you can wander through the narrow streets of Lipari, gaze at the archaeological remains and fortresses of the Greek and Roman empires, laze on the beaches or explore the wild coastlines via boat or kayak. The islands are as uniquely stunning as the local glittering, dark gemstone, obsidian, and welcome visitors of all ages to indulge in what they have to offer.
Therasia Resort Sea & Spa The top-ranked Therasia Resort Sea & Spa is perched on the black rocks of the cliff of Vulcanello, on the northern coast of Vulcano Island, which overlooks the vast Tyrrhenian Sea. Designed in an elegant style where a focus has been placed on incorporating local materials such as lava stone, cotto tiles, as well as cedar and olive wood, the resort splendidly echoes the surrounding natural beauty of the island. Here you can enjoy the spacious and smart rooms, dine in one of the three
magnificent restaurants, as well as book relaxing treatments at the resort’s very own spa. From the large solarium, the two bars or indeed the two infinity pools, you can gaze across the seemingly endless seascape while sipping a refreshing drink. You can also follow the private path down to the coast, where you can take a dip in the azure waves. With lots of nearby beaches, as well as the centre of the island only a kilometre away, it is easy to explore Vulcano Island further, as well as visiting other islands like Lipari and Stromboli. This makes the resort the perfect destination, whether you are seeking pure relaxation, lots of activities and tours, or a delightful combination of both.
Stay in a Classic Garden View Room The Classic Garden View Room is furnished and modelled in a charming, local design. With colourful majolica-tiles and lava stones adorning the surfaces, the room offers a tranquil, private sanctuary with either a balcony or terrace overlooking the resort’s garden. Each room comes with a satellite TV, air conditioning, a minibar with complimentary soft drinks, as well as a safe, two telephones and free Wi-Fi.
