Italy, beyond the guidebook—a tapestry of culture, calm, and authentic indulgence.

Italy’s iconic sights are breathtaking, but for the seasoned traveler seeking depth, the charm lies beyond the known. As travel writer Jordi Lippe‑McGraw notes, “another layer—quieter, richer, more textured—waits beyond the obvious”
Here’s Roxstar’s guide to those hidden Italian luxuries you won’t find in every brochure.
Puglia – The Sun‑Drenched Heel
Olive groves, trulli villages & unhurried elegance
Puglia’s light at golden hour feels almost edible—its baroque Lecce, whitewashed trulli of Alberobello, and slow-motion coastal life offer a rhythmic escape.
Roxstar Highlights:
A morning caffè leccese followed by leisurely exploration of Lecce's rippling facades
Pasticciotto pastries and sunset pizzica dance workshops in authentic countryside settings
Private trullo‑building sessions for families in Alberobello
Luxury evenings at Borgo Egnazia, blending rustic elegance with 5-star service
Sardinia – Wild Beauty, Waterfront Glamour
Untamed landscapes & coastline sophistication
Italy’s second-largest island reveals itself gradually: marble beaches, hidden coves, and refined dining away from the crowds
Roxstar Highlights:
Charter luxury yachts to secret bays with surf-and-turf lunches
Explore rugged inland trails followed by wellness rituals in secluded spas
Anchor overnight in cliffside suites featuring star-lit terraces
Civita di Bagnoregio & Basilicata
Ethereal hilltop villages & cave-dwelling mystique
In places like Civita (accessible only by a pedestrian bridge) and Basilicata’s cave town of Matera, historic silence meets cinematic grandeur
Roxstar Highlights:
Private guided walk through Civita’s timeless streets
Stay in luxury cave‑hotels of Matera with full concierge service
Helicopter rides over craggy coastlines and medieval mountain villages
Abruzzo – Italy’s Wild Heart
Untrodden vineyards & mountain‑meets-sea charm
Abruzzo’s villages and Montepulciano wine country offer distilled charm and soul—think rustic palaces, artisanal distilleries, and mountain vistas
Roxstar Highlights:
