San Montano is a deep bay enclosed between Mount Vico and the promontory of Zaro in one of the most evocative corners of Ischia, an island where the culture of bathing has spread since the early decades of the twentieth century. The garden that we can admire today is the result of a long work begun in 1947 by Duke Luigi Silvestro Camerini, an entrepreneur and anti-fascist from Veneto (but also a traveler whom many remember perennially dressed in colonial clothes, who fell in love with the South after his confinement in Ponza), continued by the heirs and, in 1988, by the passionate intervention of Ermanno Casasco. In Camerini's original intention, the territory was to host an irrigated botanical garden with a complex, albeit rudimentary system of tanks and crossed by paths carved into the rock of Mount Vico.

It was not an easy task to create a unique and vast property like Negombo, since at the time the land was divided into plots cultivated as vegetable gardens owned by many different families. To unite them it took a few years and not a few battles, but, in the end, cicas, cocos, ficus elastici, zamie, sterlizie arrived which also justified that curious name stolen from a Ceylon bay, visited on one of the trips by the Duke. The spirit of Mediterranean nature was not supplanted by the arrival of African, Australian, Japanese or Brazilian essences. Its presence is perceived but it is not in contrast with the other essences. In the seventies the place passed from a private park to a hydrothermal park open to the public (to achieve self-financing and save this green heritage) and, in the eighties, the duke's son, Paolo Fulceri Camerini, after having built the main swimming pools and services of bars and restaurants, he perceived the need to redesign the structure of the garden to make it a more harmonious and less 'wild' whole.

He had already stayed for a long time in Capri and then in Ponza, confined for political reasons. The charm of the place and the similarity with the Negombo bay, which he admired in Ceylon, make the choice fall on the bay of San Montano. After merging the entire bay into a single property (more than fifty sales contracts were required), he began his transformation from a swamp to a lush park. The Negombo was conceived to pleasantly combine the extraordinary therapeutic properties of the thermal waters with a fun and healthy stay.
