“So much of who we are is where we have been.”
William Langewiesche

During our 25 years of travel to Italy we have met many fascinating and gracious people who have shared their secret travel destinations and, sometimes, even their homes with us.

Eventually, these people became lifelong friends and associates. It is through these special relationships and our own research that via travel design has created our small but select group of vacation rental homes.

We have assembled this group of homes to complement our preferred way of travel. That is, we enjoy staying in one place and using it as a base of exploration to better understand the region. In this way, we feel we make a more authentic connection to the culture by avoiding hotels, the ubiquitous tourists and the lack of necessity to pack and unpack every few days. This leisurely pace affords us many opportunities to enjoy our carefully researched destinations and additional time for the "wonders of serendipity" we all love to experience while traveling.

It is with great pleasure and pride that we offer you our collection of vacation homes. Your home for a new travel experience.
