Hi, I'm Giuseppe — and Collina degli Ulivi is not just my home, it's my life's work. I built this place with one idea in mind: that a holiday should slow you down, not speed you up. No queues, no crowds, no rush. Just good food, clean air, and the kind of quiet that lets you actually think. I know every hidden beach, every local restaurant that doesn't appear on Google, and every road worth driving at sunset in this corner of Southern Lazio. I'm here every morning at breakfast and always available for a chat, a suggestion, or to help you plan the perfect day. Collina degli Ulivi has been my guests' home away from home for years — and I'd love it to be yours too. Slow travel, instant love. That's what we believe in here. See you soon, Giuseppe

Charming boutique B&B halfway between Rome and Naples, with a salt-water infinity pool, elegant suites and homemade breakfast. The perfect base to explore the hidden coast of Southern Lazio. Collina degli Ulivi is a design B&B set on a peaceful hillside in Itri, in one of the least-discovered stretches of the Italian coast — halfway between Rome (1h30) and Naples (1h), and just minutes from the crystal-clear waters of Gaeta and the whitewashed medieval village of Sperlonga. Slow travel, instant love. That is what guests tell us after their first morning here — breakfast on the terrace, the scent of olive trees, and no reason to rush. The area is beautiful in every season, but there is something special about arriving in May, September or October: the sea is warm, the landscape is at its most lush, the beaches are calm, and the whole territory opens up to those who want to explore it without rush. These are the months when Southern Lazio reveals its best-kept secrets. Start your mornings with a homemade Italian breakfast, then spend time floating in our salt-water infinity pool — no chlorine, open from spring through autumn — with views stretching over olive-covered hills and open sky. We offer six elegant suites for couples, families and solo travelers, each with private bathroom, air conditioning and free Wi-Fi. The Romantic Suite is a fully independent dependance, ideal for those seeking complete privacy. From here, you can easily reach: Sperlonga (15 min) — a clifftop white village with turquoise waters; Gaeta (20 min) — a dramatic headland with one of Lazio's finest beaches; the Pontine Islands by ferry from Formia (40 min); and the Circeo National Park (45 min). Giuseppe, your host, is always on hand to suggest itineraries, hidden beaches, and local restaurants that never appear in guidebooks. Free private parking. Multiple awards on Booking, TripAdvisor and Airbnb.
