There’s a specific moment when you stop checking your phone. <br>It usually happens when you climb the spiral staircase and <br>find yourself standing in front of panoramic windows framing <br>nothing but olive trees stretching towards the Calabrian hills.<br><br>THE SPACE<br>The Treehouse is the most private and premium accommodation <br>at Golden Camp—the only one with a fully private en-suite <br>bathroom. Built on stilts among centuries-old olive trees, <br>it sits above the rest of the property with views over the <br>grove and, on clear days, towards the Gulf of Sant’Eufemia.<br><br>Inside, the space is carefully curated: a double bed dressed <br>in high-quality linens, a large handcrafted macramé piece covering <br>the entire back wall, artisan lamps, boho textiles, and <br>panoramic windows on three sides that make the olive trees <br>feel like wallpaper. A surfboard leaning against the wall <br>reminds you that the sea is just 15 minutes away.<br><br>Outside, a private terrace with a thatched parasol is the <br>perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee while the grove comes to life <br>. The spiral staircase leading up to it is part of the <br>experience.<br><br>THE SHOWER<br>The outdoor shower is consistently what guests mention most <br>in their reviews—and once you’ve used it, you’ll understand <br>why. It’s completely private, set beneath an ancient olive tree, on <br>a hand-laid mosaic pebble floor with intricate circular <br>patterns. Hot water, complete privacy, ferns, and olive <br>branches overhead. It’s unlike any shower you’ve ever taken.<br><br>WHAT’S INCLUDED<br>Breakfast is prepared and served every morning. All guests <br>have access to the shared outdoor wood-fired kitchen, the <br>seasonal summer pool, the bonfire pit area, the BBQ area, <br>and the garden and relaxation spaces throughout the property. <br>Free on-site parking is available.<br><br>In the evenings, a tasting of local produce (platters and “ <br>” regional specialities) can be arranged upon request for both in- <br>—contact the property directly for <br>availability and details.<br><br>Firewood for the bonfire and BBQ is available as an extra <br> s (€5 per basket).<br><br>BRUNELLO & OLIVIA<br>Golden Camp is also home to two resident donkeys—Brunello <br>and Olivia—who roam the property with complete confidence <br>, as if they own the place. Meeting them tends to be an <br>unexpected highlight, especially for families.<br><br>THE AREA — FALERNA & SURROUNDINGS<br><br>Golden Camp sits on the Riviera dei Tramonti — named after <br>its sunsets, which face the Aeolian Islands and, on clear <br>evenings, reveal the silhouette of Stromboli. This stretch <br>of the Tyrrhenian coast is one of the least-known and most <br>rewarding parts of southern Italy.<br><br>BEACH & COAST (15 min)<br>The beaches of Falerna and Gizzeria run along a wide, clean <br>shoreline with clear water. Gizzeria is particularly well-known <br>as one of Italy’s best kitesurfing spots, with consistent <br>winds and a lively beach scene. Torre Lupo—a medieval <br>coastal watchtower—stands at the edge of one of the most <br>scenic stretches of coastline in the area and is worth a <br>short walk.<br><br>MOUNTAINS & NATURE (10 min)<br>Monte Mancuso and the Fiume Griffo valley offer easy hiking <br>through chestnut and oak forests, river walks,
