Italy's Coastlines: A Guide to Choosing Your Perfect Shore
Italy offers over 4,700 miles of coastline—and yet, for travelers seeking a luxury villa vacation by the sea, the choice narrows considerably.
Experiences
Chefs, Food & Wine
Book an Italian villa with a chef. Take a journey through Italy's vineyards, learn to cook regional dishes, fire a pizza and make gelato. Sample organic fruit and vegetables grown in our villa and hotels' orchards and gardens. Harvest your own olives and taste first press extra virgin olive oil. Learn the art of making cheese and creating chocolate. Enjoy our recommended restaurants and local trattorie or let us pack you a picnic in the woods. Our chefs can provide breakfast, lunch or dinner services and we can cater for specific dietary needs, allergens, vegan and kosher food. Some villas offer chefs as part of the rental, for others they are an optional extra. We can also arrange for special celebratory meals and pre-stock wines, spirits and soft drinks.
