Our team at Agriturismo Monte Sacro is made up of people who deeply value connection—to nature, to simplicity, and to meaningful human presence. We come from a variety of cultural backgrounds, including Italy, the United States, Slovenia, Germany, and beyond, and we are united by a shared love for this land and the life it holds. We genuinely enjoy hosting guests from all over the world and creating a space where people can slow down, feel welcomed, and experience the beauty of rural living. For us, hospitality is not just about accommodation—it’s about offering a place where guests can rest, breathe more deeply, and feel at home in nature. We are especially inspired by sharing this environment with those seeking quiet, reflection, or time away from busy routines. Whether guests come for a short stay or a longer retreat, it brings us joy to support their experience in a simple, respectful, and heartfelt way.

Set across 60 hectares (140 acres) of open countryside, Agriturismo Monte Sacro offers a peaceful nature retreat just 15 minutes from the sea. Surrounded by rolling landscapes, hiking paths, and expansive views, the property invites guests to slow down, reconnect with nature, and experience a more grounded rhythm of life. Now under new management, Monte Sacro is gradually evolving into a peaceful oasis-style agriturismo experience focused on wellbeing, conscious living, community, and connection to the land. Alongside traditional hospitality, the space is expanding to include experiences centered around relaxation, yoga, meditation, organic vegetarian cuisine, and immersive contact with nature. At the heart of the property is a newly opened vegetarian restaurant serving fresh, seasonal meals in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The focus is on nourishing food, shared dining experiences, and mindful living inspired by simplicity and care for the environment. Guests are free to explore the land, enjoy outdoor spaces, relax by the pool, or spend time with the many friendly animals who call the property home, including donkeys, cows, horses, turtles, peacocks, and more. Families especially appreciate the wide open spaces, nature immersion, and peaceful environment for children to play and explore. Dedicated spaces for yoga, meditation, and reflection make Monte Sacro an ideal destination for those seeking rest, clarity, inspiration, or a deeper sense of wellbeing.
