Ciao Carolina Perks
When you book direct, your stay becomes more personal.
The Ciao Carolina Perks are a collection of thoughtfully curated experiences —
and you’ll be invited, at the time of booking, to choose the one that speaks to you most.
From Italian kitchen moments to slow Sunday mornings, we prepare differently for our direct guests.
Because hospitality should feel intentional.
Too much fun for just one trip.

Stefania’s Greenville home was an absolute dream! It was warm, cozy, and so comfortable that we instantly felt at ease the moment we walked in.
She thought of everything—from the little touches to the big comforts—so we never once found ourselves needing a thing.
On top of that, she was the kindest and most attentive host, always quick to respond and making sure we felt completely cared for.
You can tell she truly cares for her guests! It truly felt like staying at a friend’s home, and we left with full hearts.
We can’t wait to come back! You will do yourself a disservice if you don’t stay at one of her properties!!

Wow, this house was fantastic for us during our stay in the Greenville area! Not only was it super clean and well appointed, but Stefania thought of absolutely everything, even things we never thought of...no detail was overlooked.
For the first several hours of our stay my spouse and I kept saying "wow look at this!" as we discovered all the things Stefania did in the home to enhance our stay. The kitchen is fully stocked with utensils and appliances that are new or near new including many smaller appliances typically/never seen at other properties.
The furniture and beds are comfy. The huge back yard has a 6 foot privacy fence that kept our pup safe, a fire pit, gas grill and even a pizza oven.
I could go on and on.....she even provides various items and toiletries that you can purchase for a very small fee if you forgot anything. Oh, and you get a digital guidebook with info on the house and suggestions on restaurants, bars, trails in the local area. Sorry I can give only 5 stars!
Elevé is our boutique rewards program exclusively for direct-booking guests of Blue Ridge Upstate Gateways.
