Hello friends! 🍷✨

There is nothing quite like sitting by the turquoise sea, listening to the waves, and enjoying a delicious seafood lunch seated on a traditional Trabocco. It’s pure magic.

People always ask me: 'Fabrizio, how can we exchange experiences with other travelers before booking?' or 'Can Mamma answer questions about a recipe?'

Until now, our public page couldn't accommodate all of that. But in a few days, we'll be opening the doors to our private Facebook group — an exclusive space where I, cousins Rosa and Angelo, Mamma Anna Maria, our drivers, and our team will share information you won't find online.

Ready to join our family? Newsletter subscribers are getting their invites very soon. If you haven't signed up yet, join today so you don't miss out on early access: https://italiasweetitalia.com/newsletter-subscription/

Buongiorno LIVE from the stunning Costa dei Trabocchi in Vasto, my beloved hometown! 🌅🚴‍♂️

I just finished my early morning bike ride along the Via Verde cycle path, riding past fields of sunflowers, ancient olive groves, and wild coastal views right as the sun peaked over the horizon! 🌾🍇

Before heading back to open up the office, I couldn't resist taking a quick, refreshing morning dip in this calm Adriatic Sea, followed by a quiet breakfast right on the beach next to Trabocco Cungarelle. 🌊☕

This slow, unhurried rhythm of life is the true heart of what we love to share—no crowded tour buses or rushed schedules, just genuine moments where you feel like part of our local family. ❤️

How did you start your day today? Let me know in the comments below! 👇

𝐁𝐮𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐨 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐜𝐢!
We have been whispering about a big secret here at 𝐈𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚 𝐒𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐈𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚 🤭
We realized that our social page is 𝒈𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒕, but it’s a bit like looking through a window.
We wanted to build something 𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐦𝐞𝐫... a place where we can sit down together, share a glass of wine, and talk about real Italian life, recipes, and hidden spots.
𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐲 𝐭𝐮𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐧𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝐟𝐞𝐰 𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬.
Something 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 is coming, and you’re going to want a front-row seat! 😊

𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱𝗻’𝘁 𝗯𝗲 𝘀𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗳𝗶𝗴𝘀. 💜

Sweet, juicy and full of flavor, figs are one of my favorite fruits and, for me, one of the true tastes of an Italian summer.

Freshly picked and enjoyed just as they are, or paired with a slice of prosciutto and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, they are one of those simple pleasures that make summer in Abruzzo so special.

There’s something about the taste of a perfectly ripe fig that instantly feels like summer: warm days, long lunches and the simple pleasure of eating what the land gives us.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝗯𝗿𝘂𝘇𝘇𝗼?

Fresh cod, fragrant lemon zest, fresh mint and good pasta come together in a simple dish inspired by the flavors of the Adriatic and the freshness of our family garden.

Simple ingredients, easy preparation, and all the taste of an Abruzzese summer.

Curious to try it?

✨ 𝗔𝗯𝗿𝘂𝘇𝘇𝗼: 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗜𝘁𝗮𝗹𝘆 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗺𝗮𝘆 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄… 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗲𝘁 💚

What if your next Italian adventure took you somewhere 𝗯𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘂𝘀𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗹?

A place where you can swim in crystal-clear waters in the morning, wander through centuries-old villages in the afternoon, and look up at the mountains before dinner.

Where traditional food still brings people together around the table, festivals are deeply rooted in local traditions, national parks protect wild landscapes, and life moves at a slower, more authentic pace.

𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗔𝗯𝗿𝘂𝘇𝘇𝗼 🇮🇹

From the Adriatic Sea to the Apennine peaks, this is a region of contrasts and that’s exactly what makes it so special.

I’ve selected 𝟭𝟮 𝘂𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲𝘀, 𝗽𝗹𝘂𝘀 𝟮 𝗲𝘅𝘁𝗿𝗮 𝗴𝗲𝗺𝘀, to help you discover the Abruzzo I love: the landscapes, villages, traditions, food and experiences that make this corner of Italy truly unique.

Buonasera LIVE from Vasto Marina! 🌅✨

Take a moment to look at this stunning view with me tonight! Standing right here on the beach at Vasto Marina, your eyes are drawn up to the ancient hilltop city of Vasto—our ancient Histonium, sitting proudly at 144 meters (472 feet) above sea level.

Illuminated against the twilight sky, you can clearly see the historic skyline dominated by the grand bell tower of the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore and the imposing Palazzo D'Avalos. Vasto is not just our base—it is my hometown, the place of my heart, and where we love welcoming travelers as part of our extended family. Standing here at the water's edge with the warm sea breeze and the lights shimmering over the Adriatic is pure magic.

Have you ever had the chance to visit Vasto? If you have, I’d love to know: what was your absolute favorite part of the city? Tell me in the comments below! 👇
