Everybody knows Rome...
you may visit my city so many times and never see the same attractions.
First time travellers will follow the 'must.see' paths, but I can suggest many alternative itineraries, depending on your personal interests. Catacombs, unique and little known museums, Cinecittà, and enchanting night tours through the Roman Ghetto or the Isola Tiberina... Precious advices by a renowned local guide will help you find YOUR special Rome.
Right close to our house we have Ostia Antica, a beautiful city of ruins, testimony of the ancient Roman life, a small Pompei, with houses, theaters, streets, shops, in the middle of a green 'pineta'.
Not to forget that both on the coast and in the country we have amazing little villages or ancient monumental villas or beautiful spa resorts where you can really forget the hustle bustle of the great city and lose yourself in relax...
Last but not least, food. With the right directions you will be able to taste the very best, without necessarily paying a fortune, be it a nice trattoria in town, or a lively fish restaurant by the sea.
Sailing, windsurfing, horse riding, cycling, and hiking are other optional activities available in the area.
The only problem is, with so much to see and do, you will have to come back here soon !
The house is very modern and open. Great outdoor spaces both back and front,shaded parking place in the garden.
Barbeque and covered outside dining area.
Main bedroom on top floor with ensuite bathroom and a nice little balcony overlooking the back garden and nearby park and channel.
Second bedroom with private bathroom and direct access to garden.
Large sitting room, directly joining the nice kitchen, perfectly equipped with stove, oven, large double sink, dishwasher, one fridge plus one freezer, toaster, microwave.
Books are everywhere, treasure of our house, many in English. You are welcome and free to read them while here.
A bus stopping close to the house takes you to Ostia Centre, but the Trenino from Ostia Antica is absolutely the best and quickest way to dive into Rome.

“We really loved this cozy house! Sabina is a fantastic host and everything was perfectly cleaned. We'll surely come back.. really suggested. Tks again. Barbara”
“We had a WONDERFUL experience at Sabina´s home. We actually stayed at her home with her and she made us feel so welcome the whole time. Her house is very close to Rome if you want to take a day trip and also about 10 minutes drive from the beach. She has a wonderful yard where you can sit outside in the afternoons as well. The best part about our visit to Sabina´s home was Sabina herself. We had wonderful communication with her throughout and she was such a delightful person. I would highly recommend swapping with Sabina if you have the chance! Thank you again for such a positive first swap experience Sabina!”
“Sabina's apartment is in a great location outside of Rome in the historic area of Ostia Antica We had a lovely time on this part of the Mediterranean coastline- old world beach suburbs and ancient ruins. Half an hour drive into the city was easy. Sabina was very helpful and supportive during our stay.”
“Sabina was an amazing host, she helped with so many details of our trip it couldn't have been a success without her. She helped arrange transportation to the cruise port for us and on the night we arrived at her property she had a delicious pasta supper ready for us. We sat and chatted and had such lovely meal with her. The next morning she showed us all that we would need to know in the area from the shopping to the station.She is just amazing. Now for the property, it was so comfortable and welcoming, the décor was so beautiful. the garden amazing, it was great to cook our meals and chill out after spending the day in Rome. We could relax and watch t.v. or surf the web while we would have a glass of wine. This is the place you want to stay! Don't waste your time looking anywhere else! Thanks Sabina for a great stay at your property.”
“We had a wonderful time staying in Sabina's house. It was an easy train ride into Rome city to explore the amazing streets and buildings. Coming home to this green cool peaceful location after a hot tiring day was just bliss. We visited Ostia Antica locally which is a fantastic place to see. We ate locally, went to the beach and drove to beautiful hill top towns all within an easy reach of the house. Sabina was a most gracious and kind host who couldn't do enough to help us. Thank you so much Sabina. We look forward to hosting you in Australia. ”
“Ah, Sabina was absolutely wonderful to meet and we were so glad that she thoroughly enjoyed her stay. Such a perfect guest, we are looking forward to visiting her at her home in Italy some day. ”
