Colletta was an abandoned medieval village - until visionary architect Giancarlo De Carlo found a unique way to keep all the 13th century character, but add 21st century comforts. Colletta is Italy's first internet village, with free high speed broadband connection to our apartment. Perfect for a peaceful holiday, and for those who want to stay connected. Nestled in the stunning Martime Alps, 20 minutes from the fashionable Riviera town of Alassio, it has a wonderful osteria, a shared pool, sauna and is car free. Walks through the beautiful mountains leave from the village. Our apartment is in the heart of the village by the osteria/cafe bar.
