Destination
Farmhouses and palazzi where dinner is the main event. Every villa here has four or more bedrooms and its own private pool; availability is confirmed personally when you enquire.
Italy's villas were built for exactly this: farmhouses and palazzi where the whole point is the table. Tuscany and Umbria lead for hilltop estates with cypress drives and pools facing the view; Puglia's masserie put everyone behind whitewashed walls with courtyard dining; the lakes and Amalfi bring drama for milestone celebrations.
Food does the entertaining. A pizza oven, a local cook one night, a market run each morning, and the week takes care of itself.
