Villa Giulia
A private Roman residence with garden and jacuzzi by the Spanish Steps

There are addresses in Rome that place you close to everything, and then there are addresses that seem to hold the city at just the right distance. Villa Giulia belongs to the second category. Set on Via Margutta, one of Rome’s most atmospheric and discreet streets, this elegant ground-floor residence offers the rare privilege of staying only moments from Piazza di Spagna, Via Condotti and Villa Borghese, while returning each day to a private garden, a jacuzzi, and a silence that feels almost impossible in the historic centre.

Villa Giulia is not a conventional apartment and it is not a hotel suite trying too hard to behave like a home. It is a refined private Roman retreat: intimate, bright, beautifully proportioned and conceived for guests who want to live the city with ease, privacy and a certain quiet confidence. It welcomes up to four guests, with one bedroom, one bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen, generous living spaces and a landscaped private garden arranged for slow mornings, evening drinks and open-air relaxation after a day among churches, galleries, boutiques and palazzi.

The location is exceptional, but its true luxury lies in balance. Step outside and Rome is immediate: the Spanish Steps are close enough for an early morning walk before the city fully wakes; Via Condotti is within easy reach for shopping; Piazza del Popolo and Villa Borghese are a short stroll away. Step back inside, and the tempo changes. The noise softens. The garden catches the light. The jacuzzi waits under the Roman sky. The city remains present, but no longer demanding.

Via Margutta has always been one of Rome’s most poetic streets. It carries the memory of painters, writers, designers and filmmakers, and still has that particular Roman elegance that does not shout. It is artistic without being theatrical, central without being restless, beautiful without trying to sell itself. Once associated with figures such as Picasso, Fellini and de Chirico, the street remains a place of studios, galleries, hidden courtyards and soft façades. To stay here is to inhabit a version of Rome that feels more personal and less consumed: the Rome of private doors, ivy-covered walls, morning light on stone, and the sensation that beauty has been allowed to mature slowly.

Villa Giulia occupies a bright ground-floor setting where indoor and outdoor life connect naturally. The interiors are calm and contemporary, while retaining a sense of Roman character. Tall windows draw natural light into the rooms; the palette is composed and elegant; the atmosphere is deliberately unhurried. This is a home for guests who appreciate refinement without stiffness. Everything is designed to support a stay that can be as independent or as fully serviced as desired.

The living area is welcoming and well arranged, suitable for relaxed breakfasts, quiet reading, an informal aperitivo or a private dinner prepared in the villa. The kitchen is fully equipped, allowing guests either to enjoy the independence of a private residence or to rely on Camisa Essential for chef services, breakfast arrangements and grocery pre-stocking. The bedroom has been conceived as a genuine resting space: elegant, well dressed and peaceful, with the kind of atmosphere that matters after long Roman days spent walking across cobblestones and through centuries.

The bathroom is practical and polished, designed with comfort in mind. As with the rest of the house, the strength of the property is not excess, but proportion. Villa Giulia understands the rhythm of a short Roman stay: mornings should be easy, afternoons flexible, evenings atmospheric, and the return home effortless.

The private garden is the soul of the residence. In a city where outdoor space in the historic centre is a privilege, this garden gives Villa Giulia a quality that is genuinely rare. Landscaped and furnished for open-air living, it offers a private lounge area and jacuzzi, creating a small sanctuary just off one of Rome’s most desirable streets. It is ideal for breakfast outside, a glass of Franciacorta before dinner, or a quiet moment after an evening at the opera, a gallery opening or a long lunch that somehow became sunset.

The jacuzzi adds a particular pleasure to the stay. Rome is a city of stone, movement and intensity; returning to warm water, privacy and greenery gives the experience a softer rhythm. It turns the residence into more than a base. It becomes a place to pause. That pause is often the real luxury.

Villa Giulia is especially well suited to couples looking for a romantic Roman escape, honeymooners, solo travellers seeking privacy, business guests who prefer discretion over hotel formality, or a small group of up to four guests wanting a central but secluded address. It can also work beautifully for longer weekends, cultural stays, fashion week visits, art-led itineraries or a refined city break where the accommodation is part of the experience rather than a practical afterthought.

From Villa Giulia, Rome can be enjoyed at a natural pace. Begin the day before the crowds, walking to the Spanish Steps while the light is still soft. Continue towards Villa Borghese for a morning among gardens and galleries, or cross towards Piazza del Popolo and the cafés of the historic centre. Spend the afternoon among boutiques, antique dealers, churches and courtyards, then return home before dinner for a soak in the jacuzzi or a drink in the garden. The evening can unfold in many directions: a private chef dinner at the villa, a table at a Roman institution, a rooftop aperitivo, a guided Caravaggio walk, or a late return through the quiet beauty of Via Margutta.

What makes Villa Giulia particularly compelling is the way it allows guests to enjoy Rome without surrendering entirely to the city’s intensity. The centre is exhilarating, but it can be tiring. Here, the residence gives you an elegant counterpoint: not retreat in the sense of distance, but retreat in the sense of restoration. You remain in the heart of the city, yet with the privilege of a private world behind you.

Through Camisa Homes & Villas and Camisa Essential, Villa Giulia can be experienced not simply as a stay, but as a complete Roman journey. Camisa Essential is the dedicated concierge and lifestyle division created to support guests before, during and after their stay, shaping services around the rhythm of each traveller. The approach is personal, discreet and practical: the right driver at the right time, the right table, the right guide, the right bottle waiting in the fridge, the right sense that everything has already been thought through.

Continental breakfast is available on request from €35 per day, ideal for guests who prefer to begin the morning slowly at home before stepping into the city. Breakfast can be arranged in a simple and elegant style, with fresh pastries, bread, preserves, fruit, yoghurt, coffee, tea and selected continental items, subject to final confirmation and guest preferences. For many guests, this is the most civilised way to begin Rome: not rushing through a hotel buffet, not searching for a table, but sitting in the quiet of the garden while the city gathers itself beyond the gate.

For more elaborate dining, a private chef can be arranged from €1,200 per service. This may include a refined Roman dinner in the villa, an intimate celebration, a special anniversary evening, a seasonal Italian menu or a bespoke culinary experience designed around the guests’ preferences. Menus, wine pairing, service staff, table styling and any additional requirements can be quoted separately according to the occasion. A private chef dinner at Villa Giulia works particularly well because the residence has the intimacy of a private home and the outdoor setting to make the evening feel genuinely memorable. Rome has many restaurants; few offer your own garden, your own tempo and no need to leave after dessert.

Camisa Essential can also arrange airport transfers, private drivers, grocery pre-stocking, restaurant reservations, personal shopping support, in-villa wellness treatments, massages, beauty appointments, flowers, laundry support, babysitting on request, security where required, and tailored local experiences. For guests who want to enter Rome more deeply, the concierge team can create private itineraries around art, architecture, fashion, gastronomy, cinema, antiques and hidden neighbourhoods. Think early access museum visits, private Vatican or ancient Rome guiding where available, contemporary gallery routes, artisan ateliers, vintage car tours, opera evenings, wine tastings, private shopping appointments and carefully selected restaurants away from the obvious tourist circuit.

The service is intentionally flexible. Some guests want only a seamless arrival, breakfast and one exceptional dinner. Others want the full architecture of a bespoke Roman stay: transfers, daily planning, guides, chef services, restaurant reservations, experiences, spa moments and a final farewell lunch before departure. Villa Giulia works for both. It has enough independence to feel like your own Roman address, and enough support around it to feel effortless.

Rates start from €10,000 per week, with a two-night minimum stay and availability on request. Given the central location, the private garden, the jacuzzi and the rarity of this type of residence near the Spanish Steps, early availability checks are recommended, especially for spring, early summer, September, October, festive periods and major cultural or fashion dates in Rome.

Villa Giulia is for travellers who want Rome, but not the predictable version of Rome. It is for those who want to wake near Piazza di Spagna, walk t...
