Set along the tranquil coastline of Palo Laziale, La Posta Vecchia is a hidden seaside sanctuary where Renaissance grandeur meets effortless Italian elegance. Once favoured by Roman emperors and later transformed into a private retreat by Jean Paul Getty, the villa is steeped in art, history and old-world glamour. Surrounded by lush gardens and the shimmering Tyrrhenian Sea, guests can embrace la dolce vita through restorative wellness, private beach days and timeless Mediterranean charm.
A 17th-century villa layered with centuries of history, La Posta Vecchia blends Baroque opulence with contemporary refinement. From Getty’s treasured antiques and Roman mosaics to the creative vision of the Sciò family, every corner reveals a dialogue between past and present, art and atmosphere.
The hotel enjoys a secluded setting surrounded by gardens and sea views, yet remains within easy reach of Rome, Fiumicino Airport and the port of Civitavecchia. Nearby, guests can explore the ancient Etruscan sites of Cerveteri and Tarquinia, adding cultural depth to a restorative coastal escape.
Rich fabrics, marble bathrooms and carefully curated antiques define the rooms and suites, each layered with old-world glamour and individuality. Overlooking gardens or sea, these elegant spaces feel deeply personal—more private residence than hotel—immersing guests in timeless Italian refinement.
At Da Aurelio, dining celebrates the beauty of simplicity through seasonal ingredients and regional Italian flavours. Rooted in sustainability and local sourcing, the menu blends timeless classics with contemporary care. Afterwards, Bar Piranesi invites guests for refined cocktails and aperitivi in an intimate, sea-facing setting.
La Posta Vecchia offers more than a coastal retreat—it is a gateway into the cultural soul of Lazio. Discover Roman ruins beneath the villa, explore the on-site museum, visit nearby vineyards and Etruscan tombs, or sail along the Tyrrhenian coast. Every experience is infused with history, beauty and a distinctly Italian sense of wonder.
