Unconventional Sorrento: our story
Unconventional Sorrento
represents the harmonious blend of contrasts, in the heart of the historic center of Sant'Agnello, 2 km from Sorrento.
Originally, it was a convent, built in 1844, in front of a small 17th-century shrine. It was for many years an active place of worship, a gathering place for local people to carry out manual and solidarity work.
It is with that same generosity that it has become today Unconventional Sorrento, a place to come back to and discover the true essence of the Amalfi Coast. In its elements and the essential design of the furniture, it echoes the simplicity of monastic life, using the ancient symbolism of the "flower of life" that also appeared in some of the works of the old convent.
A design that describes a history that is both ancient and modern, a spirit that is honest and sincere: this is the legacy we carry forward.

Unexpected Journeys
Unconventional Sorrento's journey is linked to our land, where it all began: in fact, in 2001 we opened Relais Villa Oriana in Sorrento, also in the heart of the Sorrento Peninsula.
Since then, we have traveled our beautiful Italy to open our hearts to new hospitality projects, like Oriana Homèl: suites and apartments in Rome, Udine, Verona and Turin, as welcoming as a home but with all the services of hotels.
