In our quest for peace and rest
we found a place above the best
A paradise so far away
which meet one needs in every way
This oasis shines so bright
illuminating deep insights;
which bring us inward to meet ourselves
and open up to other worlds
A house of joy, a garden green
a beauty that is rarely seen
It is with sadness, do we depart
but Casa della Pace will live on within our hearts.

This home is the closest thing to paradise on earth which I ever found. I call it home because the love that abound here in the care of the grounds, the preparation of the food and the warmth of the people.

I have never felt as healthy as I do when I stay at Casa della Pace.
Casa della Pace has a very warm place in my and my husband hearts.
The food is by far the most well balanced, delicious, filling and wholesome that I have ever had. The rooms are beautiful, made of stone and wood.
The yoga space (the former chapel) is perfect for a grounded, loving practice of yoga, breath work and meditation.
