This is something really special! ... and those mountain roads and all the steps up are worth it for sure! Mostly owing to that charming atmosphere of the quite Italian place. Surrounded by the woody mountains, having clouds below your feet, you feel absolutely special therein! We've stayed for 3 days at B&B Rifugio Uscio, so we had a chance... More

"It's a real Italy" - was our first thought, when we enterted that hostel, beautifully situated in high italian mountains. We admired our not very large, but convenient, comfortable and colorful pink room with a wonderful view on the mountains from the window . We'd planned to swim and lay on the beach for the whole period of 3 days... More

Staying with Sonia was a fantastic experience. Her home has beautiful views from the mountains, down through the valley and to the sea. She was incredibly friendly and welcoming, with tons of great tips for what to do in the area. Breakfast was delicious. Be sure to take the boat to San Fruttuoso, absolutely gorgeous. More

I have been traveling around the East coast of Italy for the past month and this place allowed me to get to know the real italy, not a touristic italy.
