We started in 2020 as an experimental project and in 2023, SlowStayInItaly became a cultural association dedicated to promoting slow and family-friendly tourism. We are a network of hosts managing small hospitality venues such as B&Bs, holiday homes, farm stays and countryside retreats.
Each of us embodies the essence of authentic and welcoming hospitality, while every location offers the joy of experiencing places where time slows down, embracing local traditions and respecting the environment. Every accommodation is unique and the SlowStay network spans different price ranges, services, and experiences.
The desire to share, which emerged during the 2020 lockdown, gave us the awareness that our uniqueness is our true strength. That’s why you won’t find two identical stays in our network; that’s why scents, flavours and smiles may change, but one thing will always remain the same – you will feel at home when staying in a SlowStayInItaly property.
As our name suggests, Slow Stay in Italy, we are present across the entire country – from the north to the south, from the mountains to the islands, from charming provincial villages to renowned cities.
Slow Stay in Italy is all about offering an authentic and immersive experience of our country.
And who better than us, the hosts, to share the true essence of a place and allow guests to experience it like a local?
Immerse yourself in traditions, culture and history. Discover architecture and nature, listen to dialects and savour local food and wine. Take the time to fully embrace every aspect of the place you’ve chosen to explore.
Travel at a slow pace.
What unites all our carefully selected properties is a deep love for hospitality and a strong connection to the land and its traditions. Each SlowStay accommodation is designed with attention to detail, fostering meaningful interactions with locals and revealing the hidden wonders beyond the usual tourist paths.
By embracing the philosophy of slow travel, we create a network that supports the local ecosystem- from the economy to the environment.
Our goal is to offer guests an authentic experience, discovering a form of slow tourism that values people, relationships, and the territory itself.
Those who choose to travel at a slow pace seek deeper, more meaningful, and truly immersive experiences.
Choosing SlowStayInItaly means experiencing Italy differently – embracing a slow lifestyle and turning your holiday into a genuine and authentic journey. Our accommodations provide the perfect setting for a restorative break, in harmony with the true essence of each destination – just like a local!
We chose to establish an association with unique characteristics that make SlowStay truly special.
One of the most remarkable aspects is that every member contributes to the association by offering their time and skills for the benefit of all. This way, each member gains from the work and expertise of others, and teamwork amplifies even the smallest effort. This shared commitment thrives on the principle of mutual non-competition.
Each member has one or more well-defined roles to ensure everything runs smoothly. Everyone works for the group. The group, in turn, brings visibility to the individual. This structure transforms small efforts into a powerful collective impact, while fostering genuine appreciation—not just as hosts, but as people.
That’s why we often say that we are one big family.
