Dining – Il Corbezzolo Restaurant

Surrounded by a bright Mediterranean atmosphere, breakfast and dinner are served on the wonderful and unique outdoor terrace. Most of the vegetables and other fresh ingredients utilized come from the Relais garden or from local producers. The refined and light cuisine blends perfectly with the well-being inspired by the Spa.

Dining – Il Mirto Restaurant

This vegetarian restaurant, perfect for savoring the dishes prepared with fresh vegetables, grown in respect of the seasonality and only using natural fertilizers. Healthy food, as is rooted in our peasant tradition. From the land to the table for the well-being of the body and mind.

La Grotta Bar

The La Grotta bar came about from the renovation of the old cantina that had been hewed into the tuff rock. Here you can enjoy red, white or rosé wines from the island’s finest wineries. Local grapes grown in areas with perfect exposition give life to delicate wines of fine aroma and hints of dried fruit. The vineyards are usually located in areas of the island that can only be reached on foot over ancient paths and if on one hand this makes it difficult to tend to the vineyard, on the other hand it helps make it a unique product.

Iris Bar
