Italy: Lodging

Quaint and charming accommodations for all budgets.

🏰 YES, IT'S A CASTLE!

An Option for Every Comfort level


Nestled between the Adriatic Sea and the Apennine Mountains on Italy’s east coast, you’ll find medieval villages to rival those of Tuscany, beaches to best Sardinia's shores and food that's on par with Emilia Romagna's finest — but none of the crowds of any of those better-known regions.” - Italy Magazine

The hub of our European summit is Palazzo Mannochi—a rustic medieval Italian castle that we’ve rented exclusively for our crew.

This Summit is not a luxury hotel experience. Our accommodations lean charming, quaint, and historic. You can opt to stay onsite at the Palazzo, wandering the maze-like halls of a castle (!!) to find your private room. Or you can pick a flex ticket, which may find you staying in the town, tucked away just a few doors down, or in an antique-appointed room in the fortress, a 12 minute bike ride down the road.

Our standard offer is a rustic European experience—sharing a bathroom in the hall and opening a window for a cool breeze. For those seeking a bit more comfort, there’s limited numbers of private bathroom upgrades available for both tickets, as well as a few modern, air-conditioned rooms.

Regardless of lodging choice, you’ll be able to enjoy meals served in the private palazzo restaurant, take refreshing afternoon dips in the pool, and connect to founders on one of the many picturesque verandas.

**Note that all accommodations will be filled on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Palazzo Ticket:
The Palace

The 18th century Palazzo is the main hub, so you’d be at the center of it all… and sleeping a freakin’ gorgeous CASTLE!!! How often do you get that chance?

Fast facts

All palace rooms are lovingly decorated with antique furniture to match the vibe. The rooms run the range of size and design, you may find frescos on the ceiling or terraces with sweeping vistas!

Almost all rooms include access to a shared kitchen in your wing, some rooms may also have a saloon, sauna, or other delightful features nearby.

Standard rooms are private, with shared baths in the hall (or rarely in between rooms, jack + jill style.)

Most rooms include a double bed, some will have 2 singles that can be combined.

Upgrades -  Palazzo Ticket

Private Bathroom: Choose this upgrade to reserve a room with an ensuite bath or nearby private bathroom.

Good to know

This is a private rental, so there’s no room or maid service during your stay.

It can be hot in July, and there’s no AC (and only a handful of fans) onsite. But every room has multiple windows and the Palazzo is up on a hill where the sea breeze rolls in!

Flex Ticket:
The Fortress

Your flex ticket may include a room in the medieval fortress at Monte Vidon Combatte. This location is the furthest away, about 4km [2.5 miles] from the Palazzo.

The long-ish walk through the countryside is absolutely stunning, but there’s also the option for a 12 minute bike ride, or 6 minute car ride should you rent a car (or hitch a ride with someone who has one!) We may also be able to provide rides back late at night.

Fast facts

The fortress has a range of accommodations tucked away—from private studios to houses with multiple rooms and common areas.

All fortress rooms include access to a kitchen, and many include a charming saloon and/or terrace as well.

Standard rooms are private, with shared baths in the hall.

Most rooms include a double bed, some will have 2 singles that can be combined upon request.
