Petramare Spa has opened at the Furore Grand Hotel on the Alamfi Coast in Italy.

A new destination spa, Petramare blends the traditional charm of the Amalfi Coast with contemporary innovation.

Located adjacent to the famous Furore fjord, between Positano and Amalfi, the spa was developed by the Irollo de Lutiis family. The spa and its gardens are said to represent the art of the contemporary Italian bien vivre.

The spa is the vision of both the Irollo de Lutiis family and spa manager, Rosaria Stefanini.

“The olive tree, a vital element of Furore’s landscape, serves as the inspiration for the Petramare Spa wellness philosophy, with each treatment designed to harness its powerful benefits.”

Petramare Spa philosophy

Each treatment designed to harness the natural healing properties associated with olive trees, an enduring symbol of the Mediterranean.

For the treatments, guests can select from three bespoke fragrances curated by the spa team. The fragrances all feature notes inspired by the nature surrounding the property, including basil, jasmine and olive. Valmont products are used within spa treatments.

The olive tree is celebrated in every corner of the spa, from interior design and bespoke perfumes to the teas offered.
