About this property

The apartment is located in Alba, capital of the Langhe and Roero area. Known as "Alba Pompeia" in Roman times, the city was the birthplace of the emperor Elvio Pertinace. Also called "The city of a hundred towers" Alba and is today one of the main centers of international food and wine tourism. Home of the International Alba White Truffle Fair, in 2017 it was recognized by UNESCO as a Creative City for Gastronomy.

The "Alba Pompeia" apartment is located in one of the two twin buildings built in the 1950s on the site of the city's ancient furnace. Considering Alba's modern towers, they are a five-minute walk from the historic center. The décor and furnishings are cared for down to the smallest detail: the classic layout is happily combined with the modern design of the furnishings. The dominant colors are shades of gray, with boiseries and wallpapers to enrich the rooms.

Simply the Best

Don't spend any more time looking for a pied-e-terre in Alba, for a couple or 2. Alba Pompei is superb. The design details are impeccable, the location so easy for walking all over Alba, and the owner Sandra is a gem. We will be back, to be certain....

Alba Stay at Villa Vitae

We had a wonderful time at Sandra’s luxurious apartment in Alba. The location is perfect for getting around in Alba. We were close to everything we needed, shops, restaurants, and public transportation. Sandra was an impeccable host with such attention to detail in both her decorating and service. This is a designer’s delight for lodging. We highly recommend this property for your next trip to Alba and would love to stay again! Thanks to Sandra for all her personal touches and attention to detail to help us feel right at home and spoiled!

The best stay in a Vacation Rental ever!!!!!

If you are looking for a vacation stay in Alba area, please DO NOT WAIT!!! This apartment is absolutely the best I have ever stayed in and I have stayed in many vacation rentals. The location is excellent. The apartment is at the top of luxury with it’s layout, furnishings, attributes, equipment and linens. We were 2 couples and we were at awe at the luxury of this home. The kitchen is a dream for anyone, even if you don't cook. Everything one can imagine is there. And Sandra is such a pleasure to communicate with: not only she was extremely responsive to our every question or request, but she also shipped the item that I left in the apartment, a pretty heavy item, at her own cost to my next destination. I Would not just recommend staying in Sandra’s Villa Vitae house, but I will encourage not bother with any other place. Thank you for a wonderful vacation, Sandra!!!
