Un'altra Vita
Step back in time, slow down and saviour the magic of Dolceacqua and the Ligurian hinterlands.
We are happy you found us.
in 2023, through a lot of hard work and a good amount of luck, we bought our dream home in the ancient village of Dolceacqua. Life was getting to fast, we were suffering from digital fatigue, and work was not providing enough purpose. We wanted to find a place to slow down, enjoy the simple things of life, and immerse ourselves in beauty, nature, and experience a place filled with tradition, culture and passion.
Now we share our home with like minded humans from around the globe who want to experience slow tourism.

Sophia & Daniel, UK
"Staying at Un’altra Vita was like stepping back in time while still enjoying every modern comfort. We spent our mornings hiking in the hills, afternoons exploring Dolceacqua, and evenings sipping wine on the terrace. It was the most authentic Italian experience we’ve ever had."
Marcello & Elena, Spain
We came for a week but ended up staying almost a month. The house is full of charm, and the village is peaceful yet lively with culture. The hosts were so welcoming and helped us find the best local cycling routes. We’ll definitely return.
The Roberts Family, USA
As a family of four, we wanted something different from the usual tourist spots. Un’altra Vita gave us exactly that — history, beauty, and a chance to really connect with Italian life. The kids loved exploring, and we loved the slow pace. Perfect balance!"
