Always On the Move: Our Favourite Stays

We’re always on the go, which means we spend a lot of time staying in hotels and vacation rentals. We’ll admit, we’re a little picky when it comes to where we stay—whether it’s a quick overnight stop or a longer stay. But if a place makes our list, you can be sure it’s got everything we look for to make our stay memorable. No matter the length of our visit, these spots never disappoint!

It’s the perfect immersion into Italy’s lesser-known treasures for a memorable vacation experience.
