Nestled in the countryside of Rossano, among centuries-old olive trees and citrus groves, Malena is above all a farm with 5,000 olive trees. It produces an excellent organic extra virgin olive oil, honey, vegetables, fruit and many other products used in the restaurant.
It is not a luxury or exclusive place but, simply, very welcoming and familiar.
The accommodation
The farmhouse is an old farmstead of 1700, the residence of our family for several generations as well as the nerve center of the farm. A careful restructuring has made the spaces more functional without losing the charm of a place rich in history. All the rooms have private bathroom, air conditioner, refrigerator, and only in some, a romantic fireplace. On the ground floor there is the refreshment area, three large rooms where you can try our cuisine, a simple but traditional cuisine, with products grown by us. The pool is open from May to September.
Activities and surrounding
The surroundings offer endless possibilities.
From naturalistic excursions, such as the Raganello Gorges, rafting on the Lao River, in the heart of Pollino, or walking, horse riding or mountain biking in the Sila National Park? And again, in winter you can ski, while in summer a short distance away you can choose between scuba diving, windsurfing, kitesurfing or fishing trips.
For those who want to go on trips more oriented towards history and art, this strip of land is rich in extraordinary testimonies of Magna Graecia, such as those contained in the Archaeological Park of Sibari and in the National Archaeological Museum of Sibaritide, and historical villages of excellence, such as Rossano, Corigliano or the Castle of Roseto Capo Spulico, overlooking the sea.
And for the lazy?
You can relax in the pool, you can stay in the garden to make a nap in the hammock or make big eaten with the typical local products.

After three years I returned with my family and friends to this beautiful farm, and as always I spent days relaxing in the new and beautiful pool. Our permanence was enlivened by the tasty and excellent cuisine of Mrs. Carmela and the great reception and availability of George.

I spent some days in late August. I found a family atmosphere with helpful and very kind staff. The particularly welcoming structure, evokes an ancient charm. The rooms are cozy and well-kept, especially for what concerns hygiene. I highly recommend this choice.
