Premium SUVs for leisure stays: the ideal choice between hotels and villas in Italy

22 Gen 2025 · 7 min read

Why the SUV dominates the premium leisure segment

The premium SUV has emerged as the definitive leisure vehicle for discerning travellers. It combines the road presence expected at five-star hotels, the luggage capacity families need, and the elevated driving position that makes scenic routes more enjoyable.

In Italy's varied terrain, from Alpine passes to coastal roads, from city centres to rural estates, the SUV's versatility is unmatched.

The best premium SUVs for leisure in Italy

The Range Rover Sport leads our leisure requests: balanced, spacious, and universally recognised. The Mercedes GLS serves larger families or groups needing seven seats. The Audi Q8 appeals to technology-forward travellers who value a quieter profile.

For sportier leisure experiences, the Porsche Macan offers engaging driving dynamics in a compact package that handles both city parking and mountain passes.

How the concierge selects the right SUV for every stay

Vehicle selection begins with understanding the stay: destination, party size, luggage requirements, road conditions, and personal preferences. A family at a Lake Como villa has different needs than a couple at a Tuscan wine estate.

The concierge matches vehicle to context, ensuring the right model arrives at the right place, from airport to final destination and every stop in between.
