Skiing in Rome

Post by Allegra - Monday, November 23rd, 2009

Confused? We know there aren’t actually any snowy mountains IN Rome but nearby Apennines have a lot of skiing to offer to those of you who want to get away from the snow crowds! Fancy shopping and having a couple of day trips to the slopes?

 

Fly into Rome on the Saturday and check into your Dolce Vita Villa. Spend Sunday exploring the delights of the city, particularly the Jewish ghetto which offers a wide selection of wonderful pastry shops. Then, on Monday, whilst everyone else is preparing for work, climb into a rental car (Dolce Vita Villas can also organise a transfer for you) and hit the slopes! Here’s what you can do within 2 hours’ drive of Rome.

 

Roccaraso

The biggest ski resort in central Italy (110km of slopes), Roccaraso has a lot to offer experienced and inexperienced skiers and is only 2 hours’ drive from central Rome. Ski passes are €33 for adults and €28 for children/over 65s. It even has a ice skating rink for those who would like an alternative to skiing.

 

Campo Imperatore

Ski on the highest peak of the Gran Sasso, 20km of slopes around 1 hour 50 from Rome with a lovely town of Castel del Monte and Rocca Calascio with its medieval castle nearby.

 

Ovindoli

Only 1 and a half hours from central Rome, this lovely ski resort offers 22km of pistes for a family group of all ages and levels of experience. It offers spectacular views over the surrounding valleys. Ski passes: Adults €27, children/senior €23.

 

Campo Felice

The closest ski resort to Rome (only 1 hour’s drive) offers 40km of pistes for all the family. Ski passes: MON-FRI adult €25, child/senior €22; SAT/SUN and holidays: adult €30, child/senior €26.

 

Skis can be rented either in Rome (Sports Centre SRL on Via Tagliamento) or nearer the slopes. Please ask Dolce Vita Villas for transfers and information for car rental. For weather forecasts, see snow-forecast.com!

 

As for places to stay in Rome, our central Rome apartments are ideal for those who want to spend a week shopping and skiing. Giulia, in the heart of Rome next to Piazza Farnese and Piazza Navona, can sleep 5 and can be rented along with Giulietta (in the same building) for larger groups (up to 10). Alternatively, Ripetta (sleeps 4) is 5 minutes from the Spanish Steps and all the famous boutiques (Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Prada…) that can be found in this area.

Divorce parties: Amongst friends is the best place to be!

Post by Allegra - Sunday, November 22nd, 2009

Finally the paperwork is done, the decree is final and the hard work is over… it’s now time to relax in style.

 

This trend has existed for several years, led mostly by celebrities that, on the breakup of their marriage, throw a party to celebrate the opening of a new chapter in their lives. One option for a divorce party is to go abroad, invite your friends who have supported you throughout the process, and enjoy exploring a new part of a very ancient land like Italy, and Dolce Vita Villas has the villas and the local knowledge to make your divorce holiday relaxing and entertaining.

 

To really get away from it all, there’s nothing like finding a hide-away on the Amalfi Coast and having a party planned for you by our local partners! Why not have a themed party in Santa Chiara, sleeps 14, equipped with a bar and Jacuzzi to really get the party started. In the morning you can soak in the sun and the breathtaking views over the sea.

 

An alternative is La Terrazza which has unbeatable views over the town of Positano, a sun bathing platform and a bar and games area?

 

If you want to go all out this year (crisis? Schmisis!) Torre Cesarea will be THE top destination of the summer for celebrations. With a magnificent pool, well-tended Mediterranean gardens, the all-important sea views and its own staff, your stay will be unique and memorable.

 

Our ideas for themed parties: why not go for a nautical theme as you’re by the sea, a beach party or a chic wine-tasting party to sample wines from the local area and all over Italy. Alternatively, treat yourself all week to massages, limoncello tours, cooking classes with local cooks or, even better, a personal shopping tour!

 

Make the beginning of your new life memorable with Dolce Vita Villas.

History, gastronomy, luxury: so much more to the Amalfi coast

Post by Federica - Friday, October 23rd, 2009

The Amalfi coast has always been a popular destination for those seeking sun, sand and breathtaking views of the sea Villa Rides dvdrip ; but this isn’t all it has to offer. From massages to personal shoppers to children’s pizza parties, visitors’ every whim is catered for. Great hospitality is ingrained in local culture, so don’t be surprised if as soon as you arrive you’re one of the family!

Your personal shopper can guide you to the best places to shop; whether its for local ceramics or the boutiques and outlets of Salerno and Naples, our local guide can help you find your ideal gifts.

This area is, of course, steeped in ancient Roman history. Why not try a guided tour of Pompeii, Vesuvius or nearby Herculaneum, which was also buried in the eruption of AD 79?

Did you know: in Herculaneum, Roman villas have been preserved better than in (more famous) Pompeii as the stones that initially spewed from the volcano were blown southwards causing roofs to collapse in Pompeii?

Naples is also the birthplace of pizza and ice cream, so why not try a gastronomic tour, followed by a cooking class with a local chef who will show you the original recipes for traditional Italian dishes. If you are interested in local wines, Furore offers an exciting wine tasting experience, as well as being an open air museum: over 85 houses in this town are decorated with frescos by artists from all over the world, who return every year in September to continue this long-standing tradition.

The natural beauty of this area, protected as an UNESCO World Heritage Site, is unspoiled, and can be appreciated from the land and the sea, trekking with a guide through the natural reserve of Valle delle Ferriere, on horseback, in a helicopter or even on private excursions on a beautiful yacht or a traditional ‘gozzo sorrentino’ (local fishing boat, fishing optional!) by day or by night!

Our local partners can provide you with all these services and more (airport transfer, limoncello tour, event planner, 24 hour babysitting and medical service) when you book a villa on the Amalfi coast. Let us know what you are interested in and we will do the rest!

Weddings in Italy is a frequent topic of conversation, and a villa-based ceremony-cum-honeymoon can be the best way of making a special time completely unforgettable. The downside is all the things you have to take care of: international travel arrangements, local transfers, honeymoon travel, invitations, wedding lists, catering, car parking, music, marquees, flowers, furniture, menus, clothing hire, guest accomodation, the list is endless. анус секс 35лет

We therefore recommend the use of an Italian wedding planner

for the formalities and for the party organisation to make the day go in as stylish, friendly and worry-free way as you would want on the most exciting day of your life. The best is likely to be one local to the area in which you intend to marry, and if your Italian is not so good, make sure their English language skills are up to scratch. They can help organise other activities for participating guests too, taking advantage of their having travelled to Italy. Let us know your experiences!
