Thoughtfully Curated Italian Hospitality
Hospitality is at the heart of everything we do
We believe the most memorable journeys aren’t measured by how much you see, but by how deeply you experience a place.
For us, this means bringing people together. Around the table, through shared experiences, and in the company of the people who make this corner of Italy so special. That belief shapes everything we do.
Poggio Belvedere
At the heart of Vero is Poggio Belvedere, our lovingly restored 17th-century estate in the hills of Umbria.
Every season offers something different. Summer is for long afternoons by the pool and dinners beneath the stars. Autumn brings olive harvest, vineyard colours and one of the most exciting times to experience the region. Winter is wonderfully peaceful, with green countryside, mild days, roaring fireplaces and festive celebrations. Spring arrives with wildflowers, fresh produce and the first lunches outdoors.
Whatever the season, Poggio Belvedere is a place to reconnect—with one another and with Italy.
Created exclusively for groups, it’s a place to gather family, celebrate friendships and spend unhurried time together.
Our corner of Umbria
Often overlooked in favor of its better-known neighbors, Umbria has quietly remained true to itself. Rolling hills stitched together with vineyards and centuries-old olive groves. Medieval villages where life still revolves around the piazza. Family-run wineries, exceptional restaurants and artisans preserving traditions that have shaped this region for generations. It’s a place that rewards curiosity over checklists, conversation over crowds and time spent around the table. It’s a place we’re always excited to share.
Beautiful places are only part of the story.
It’s the people you meet, the conversations you have and the hospitality you experience that stay with you long after you’ve returned home.
That's why every experience we offer is chosen with care. From family-run wineries and remarkable local chefs to skilled artisans and trusted guides, we seek out the people who generously share their craft, their knowledge and their corner of Italy.

What people are saying

“Where do we begin? This is an absolute gem of a villa run by two amazing individuals well connected to the local environment. We’ve stayed in some stunning villas both in Europe and further afield… This eclipses it in every way. It is not a question of if we will come back, but when.”
— Max, London

“In all our years of travel, we have never had an experience as wonderful and spectacular as our week at Poggio Belvedere. Kaila and Ludovico have created an actual slice of paradise in Umbria… Our only regret was not staying for another week or two! Book this gorgeous villa — you will not regret it.”
— Brittany, New York

“Our group had an amazing time at the Villa! We were four couples (one with a 19-month-old), and every one of us had a memorable and relaxing stay. The layout was perfect for a group — each couple had their own private apartment, which made it feel spacious and comfortable. The grounds were absolutely stunning.”
