“In the heart of Umbria in Italy; where the rolling hills are adorned with olive groves and vineyards, lies a hidden gem that stole our hearts during our honeymoon in 2023. Embedded within the heart of a medieval village, Aethos Saragano stands as a testament to time, where meticulously restored and renovated rooms seamlessly blend medieval charm with contemporary sophistication.”
Stepping into my terrace apartment felt like entering a private haven of European design excellence.
As I wandered through the cobblestone streets, I was enchanted by the architectural marvels that surrounded us. From the weathered stone facades to the intricate detailing of archways and door frames, every element spoke of a rich history waiting to be discovered.
The interiors exuded an air of refined luxury, with Danish furniture adorning the space, including the remarkable Ferm Living chairs crafted from recycled water bottles – a testament to Aethos Saragano’s commitment to sustainability.
The stunning in-house Ceci restaurant, helmed by Chef Delfina, a Saragano native, brought us the most memorable meals we’ve ever had. Their commitment to ‘conscious food for conscious people’ resonated with me deeply, and the locally sourced, garden-fresh ingredients made for an unforgettable foodie experience.
However, the magic of Aethos Saragano extends far beyond the place itself. Paul, the incredible soul who runs this gem, and his adorable Frenchie, Mabel, have absolutely stolen my heart. Paul’s kindness, attention to detail and above and beyond service made us feel a part of something truly special. We secretly wish we could bring Mabel home to meet Fritz, our little Frenchie! ???? Paul too!
In essence, Aethos Saragano transcends the boundaries of a typical hotel experience, inviting guests to embark on a journey of discovery, where history, design, and sustainability intertwine to create memories that last a lifetime. It’s not just a place to stay; it’s a destination to truly immerse oneself in the beauty and magic of Umbria, a place that felt like coming home, and a place that we look forward to returning to very soon xx
