Villa Cheta Elite was the home in the Art Nouveau style of a noble family and has kept intact its charm over the time now that it is a hotel owned and managed by Piero and Stefania Aquadro.

Extraordinary the original glass windows, the pink and cream façade with floral motifs, the period furniture, fabrics, lace and mirrors that decorate the rooms, all different from one another, overlooking the blue sea of the Tyrrhenian coast and the splendid garden with its old trees and multi-coloured flowers. The hotel takes pride in its restaurant, which offers a simple, sophisticated cuisine attentive to the local products. The wine list is focused on the wines of southern Italy, which are enjoying increasing international appreciation. In summertime dinner is served under the pergola in the terrace by candle-light.

It takes just a few minutes reach the beach below. A ketch is available for guests wishing to enjoy the panorama from the sea. Maratea is the starting point for some of the most original and little-known itineraries in southern Italy.
