ITALY

Favorite Family Holiday Destinations in Italy

Family holidays in Italy have something for everyone. Whether it’s the picturesque coastline, the rolling hills of Tuscany, the hidden gems of Umbria, or the majestic mountains of South Tyrol, Italy is a dream destination for families. And let’s be honest, kids already adore Italy! Here are our top picks for experiencing La Dolce Vita with children:

South Tyrol

South Tyrol is a perfect blend of wellness hotels, charming farms, scenic Waalwege trails, and enchanting towns like Merano. This combination makes it an unbeatable family getaway. One highlight not to miss is the apple-filled charm of the Lana region.

The Coast

For a unique seaside escape, head to the island of Procida, near Naples. Stay in retro airstreams or glamping tents nestled in a Mediterranean garden. This lively island is bursting with charm and offers an unforgettable atmosphere.

Umbria

Often overshadowed by Tuscany, Umbria is a hidden gem waiting to be discovered. Stay in a renovated castle featuring farm-to-table cuisine and sleek Nordic-inspired design—a true “happy place” for families seeking authenticity and serenity.

ake Garda

Lake Garda is ideal for a short, sweet taste of La Dolce Vita. Picture this: breakfast by the lake, swimming, boating, and all the pizza your kids can eat. Simple and perfect!

Tuscany

No Italian adventure is complete without a trip to Tuscany. If you’re searching for a peaceful retreat near Siena, Fattoria San Martino in Montepulciano is the ultimate destination. Surrounded by idyllic nature, with a natural swimming pond and panoramic views of the valley, it’s an experience made even better by the warm hospitality. Another fantastic option is Novanta, tucked away in the Tuscan hills. Here, you’ll find breathtaking views, delicious food and wine, and a chance for your kids to make new friends while you unwind.

Rome

Dive into the rich history of the Eternal City, then escape the urban buzz by staying at an organic agriturismo just outside of Rome. It’s a perfect blend of cultural exploration and relaxing family time—a trip your kids will never forget.
