🏛️Trust&Travel ✨ Historic homes on Italy’s finest estates
💎Excellence Villas ✨ World-class luxury with the finest amenities and service
For over 30 years, we’ve seen time and time again that the most memorable stays begin with a feeling — a true sense of place.
Every villa we select must have three things: 📍 Location — a setting that tells a story. ✨ Design — beauty, soul, and a character all its own. 🤝 Owners — people we know and trust, who care for their homes as much as we do.
We are not looking for the biggest portfolio. We are looking for the most meaningful one.
Each villa is personally chosen by Katharina because it has something rare: a distinct personality, a connection to its surroundings, a certain poetry.
And because we work directly with owners — not anonymous platforms — Katharina knows every home inside and out. She knows who is behind the door, and she knows that when something unexpected happens, the people who love the villa will be there to make it right.

More of our guests are vacationing longer, blending work and play in ways that didn’t happen a few years ago.
A villa can be the perfect option for when you need a couple of hours to yourself every day…. Or when you can’t take off work, but don’t want to be left out.
The right villa can make all the difference.
But not are all equally suited for telework. If you’re planning to work remotely during your stay, here are a few things worth thinking about:
✓ Dedicated workspace — not every “desk” is actually comfortable for a few hours of work. ✓ Reliable Wi-Fi — especially if you’ll be on calls. In some rural areas, speeds can vary or slow down with multiple users streaming or working at once. ✓ Quiet corners & lighting — ideal for focus, video calls, or early mornings before the house wakes up. ✓ Flexible spaces — sometimes the best office is a shaded terrace, poolside lounger, or breezy dining table.
Especially during the shoulder and off seasons, villas can be a very affordable option to combine work and time away.
The bottom line? Ask us.
We’ll give you honest advice about which villas are best for remote working — based on your needs, group size, and how much work you actually plan on doing 😉
