We feel exceptionally lucky to have been recommended to stay at palazzo majo. Having looked at the website we were really excited about our visit however the photo's really don't show just how beautiful the house and rooms are - let alone the spectactular views across the surrounding hills in the peaceful hamlet of Lugnano. The interior design is superb... More

We have just spent 6 fabulous days at Palazzo Majo, which unfortunately ended all too soon. Given that this was at the beginning of October, we were surprised that the temperature was a very warm 28 degrees centigrade throughout. Definitely warm enough for a swim in the pool. This was our fourth visit, so we knew what to expect, and... More

We spent a week at Palazzo Majo this summer. Very comfortable. The rooms are all huge and well appointed. Joe made us feel enormously welcome and it was great to have a connection to the local area. I have never been to Umbria before and I hope I get the chance to go back.

I don't think I can adequately express how amazing Joe and Mario are!! To say that they bend over backwards is a massive understatement. The Palazzo is beautiful with modern stark decor which leaves you to focus on the gorgeous views outside your window. My first stay was in late February 2012 to finalize plans for my wedding a few...

Palazzo Majo is in a stunning location, the front faces onto an Italian hillside village, while the back has super views over the valley. The Palazzo has been restored really well, in a minimalist modern style; which appeals to me; and to a very high standard. The rooms are very airy and comfortable. Mario is a great host, he was...

Palazzo Majo is a wondrous place. Located in the Umbrian hilltop town of Lugnano, Palazzo Majo reigns supreme overlooking the beautiful country valley. Owners/Brothers Mario and Joe Camillo have painstakingly remodelled the place and given it a clean modern vibe to contrast the rich natural beauty and predominant 19th c. architecture of the village. My weeklong stay with family and... More

I think this was our 3rd stay at Palazzo Majo and each time it just gets better. Joe and Mars already feel like family and the villa feels like our 2nd home (although much more luxurious than our one in Twickenham!). We spent a week here in mid-July taking over the whole villa for most of that week with a... More

My first thought upon arrival was that the front of the hotel looks much nicer in reality than in the photographs. The gravelled courtyard has a feeling of soft grandeur that only a 360 degree video would convey. On going inside, the thick walls and original stone floors provided airy coolness and respite from the heat. The tasteful combination of... More

My husband and I spent two amazing nights at Palazzo Majo and I couldn't have asked for anywhere more perfect. I arranged the trip as a surprise for his birthday, and when we arrived Joe and Mario opened a bottle of Prosecco and cooked lunch for us, which we ate out on the terrace - a lovely treat. Everything about... More
