Collina dei Fiori is the result of a painstaking restructuring of an old country house situated in an extremely panoramic position, waiting for you to spend unforgettable holidays with your family or friends. This beautiful villa is at the top of a hillside covered in age-old olive trees and green woods, where many small roads climb up the steep hills revealing enchanting views at every turn.
In a few minutes’ drive from the house you can easily reach Castiglion Fiorentino, Cortona, Arezzo and Lake Trasimeno, ideal destinations for day trips, to alternate with relaxing days at the swimming pool (size 5x10 m, depth 1,20-2,20 m - open from 01st May to 30th September) and funny tennis and table tennis tournaments.
For tennis lovers—or anyone who simply wants to have fun with friends—a private tennis court is available about 800 meters from the villa, accessible upon reservation.
Adjacent to the kitchen there is a pergola furnished with table and benches and a barbecue where you can spend your evenings together with family and friends, enjoying grilled meats and sipping a glass of wine. The large enclosed garden offers privacy and security for your family and your four-legged friends (a supplement may be charged for pets). If you want to stretch your legs in the hills around the house there are countless hiking trails, also suitable for children. Collina dei Fiori

La Rogaia is a country villa located in a secluded, hilly position close to the city of Arezzo, between the Val d'Ambra and the Valdichiana. Placed in an unspoilt environment, the villa is surrounded by olive groves, vineyards and lush woods. You reach La Rogaia through an unpaved road that winds through the woods, well-maintained and only a little steep, and once you are there you will be rewarded with true peace and tranquillity. The villa is furnished with taste and care by the owners who also produce an excellent organic extra virgin olive oil.
We recommend that you don't miss a visit to the nearby city of Arezzo, only 10 km away, to the works of art by Piero della Francesca, Giorgio Vasari, Cimabue, a walk along the narrow streets of the historic centre and a glass of wine enjoyed in the wonderful medieval setting of Piazza Grande.
The real icing on the cake here is, however, the breathtaking view from the very panoramic private swimming pool (size 5x10 m, depth 0.90-1.95 m, completely fenced in and equipped with sun shower - open from 1st June to 30 August). From the pool terrace, your eye will wander over the valley as far as the gates of the city of Arezzo. The wrought-iron outdoor furniture, the parasols, the barbecue area and a gazebo with sitting area will allow you to spend unforgettable moments with your family and friends in total privacy.

Hospitality, Osteria "Gentile" with veg garden, Cooking School and a stunning infinity pool overlooking the valley: il Canto del Maggio, owned by Simona and her family, isn’t just a place to sleep — it’s a place where you meet a family deeply rooted in this land and in its rhythms.

Developed in Italy, this model revitalizes once-abandoned villages by blending comfort with local tradition in a truly immersive experience- in fact the "borgo" is a shared community between locals that live here permanently, and travelers that was born in the late 1980's.

Before your stay, we’ll coordinate with you to plan any extra services or personalized experiences, so everything is ready and tailored to your needs before you arrive.
Simona, the soul of this place, will welcome you into her world: her home, her kitchen, around her table, or walking through the vegetable garden — the orto. On the plate, a cuisine that arises spontaneously: the garden decides the menu, and we simply follow its lead.
Together, we can plan special dinners in the garden or by the pool, enjoy breakfast on the terrace or your private patio, and explore much more — from local farmers’ markets and tastings to our favorite go-to places in the area.
Available experiences include:
-Harvesting ingredients directly from the garden and discovering the joy of simple, farm-to-table cooking
-Themed culinary workshops (vegetarian, pastry-making, regional cuisine)

A few steps along the stone walkway that crosses the green lawn will take you from the portico to the large platform/solarium overlooking the sea; from here, a private passage will accompany you to the splendid 150 metres of white beach that form the Golfo della Padulella, bordered by the imposing cliffs that plunge into the endless blue that characterizes this formidable strip of the island of Elba, within an biological protected area. In this authentic paradise of incomparable beauty, in the centre of a Mediterranean-inspired garden with a beautiful sea-water swimming pool and a wonderful gazebo equipped for outdoor cooking and relaxation, Villa Padulella finds its natural collocation. The exterior is clad with granite stone, cleverly alternating with delicate plastering and juniper and chestnut wood, an authentic work of art, the result of the successful combination between home automation technology and skilful craftsmanship. The doors and windows in pickled oak and the custom-made furniture set in the walls have the sense of solid wood that has been salvaged and treated; the lamps and the exquisite bed headboards, made from bleached driftwood make every room unique, evoking splendid motifs of aquatic inspiration; the beautiful glazed majolica tiles in brilliant orange, yellow and purple are a cascade of energy for the bedrooms floors and the original bathrooms, personalized by cylinder-shaped showers accessed through an open porthole. Hub of the house is the bright living room, all in white, which is made to duet harmoniously, by the continuity of the natural terracotta flooring, both inside and outside, and the lively play of large glass doors and windows, with the pergola that expands out to the garden and pool, the perfect spot to just laze about and watch the sea while comfortably ensconced in a cosy armchair. It will be wonderful to return to this dream villa after a day spent exploring the enchanting little coastal corners of this beautiful island, the stunning beaches of Cavoli, Sansone, Fetovaia, Cala dei Frati and Sant'Andrea, or the fabulous paths which wind up to the peaks of Monte Capanne (also accessible by cable car), the ascent of which will be rewarded by stunning views across the whole island and which stretch to the coast of Tuscany and to Corsica. The villa is located in a residential area just three minutes from the centre of Portoferraio, where the the main bus terminus is and where you will find all services, shops and supermarkets. At the centre of the beach is a restaurant and bar open during the summer.
