Where to sleep before a cruise from Civitavecchia

Guests sailing from Civitavecchia almost always arrive the day before, usually flying into Fiumicino. Sleeping between the airport and the port avoids the morning rush and costs less than a hotel in central Rome.

Our homes are in Fiumicino, about ten minutes from the airport, with the cruise port thirty to forty minutes away by car. They are spacious, with a kitchen and parking, and we can arrange a van for your group and luggage.

What our guests say

We had a wonderful stay! The place was clean, comfortable and exactly as described. Being close to the airport made our departure the next day very easy, and we still got to relax on the beach a little before leaving. The host was welcoming and always available. We would definitely recommend this stay to other guests!
David · Coastal Whisper
The house is about a ten minute drive from the airport and it is genuinely very beautiful. There is also a restaurant right on the corner. We had a small problem with the gate, but the host was immediately available to help us. Other amenities are a little further away, so having a car is advisable. Everything else was excellent!
Mariana · Garden Villa Fiumicino
The host was extremely responsive and helpful. We absolutely recommend trying the local restaurant he suggested: it is fantastic and the portions are very generous. The house is ideal for families who want space and it is very conveniently located for Fiumicino airport.
Vahid · Garden Villa Fiumicino
Excellent apartment, clean, spacious and close to the airport.
Stefano · Garden Villa Fiumicino
We had an excellent stay. The house is clean, comfortable, well equipped and very pleasant to live in. We particularly appreciated how quiet the area is and the warm welcome from the hosts. The price felt slightly high to us, but we stayed at the height of the summer season, so that is understandable. We recommend this place without hesitation.
Jayapragash · Garden Villa Fiumicino
Alessio's place is perfect for a large family like ours. We were able to relax after a long week travelling around Italy. The house is very close to the airport and a few steps from the Lady Rose restaurant. We enjoyed our stay enormously and recommend it 100%!

From Fiumicino to Civitavecchia port

By car it is about 60 km along the A12 motorway: thirty to forty minutes without traffic. By train you change at Roma Termini or Roma San Pietro and the trip takes about an hour and a half. For groups with a lot of luggage we arrange a private van straight from the house — the option almost all our cruise guests choose.

Why not sleep in Civitavecchia itself

Most cruise guests land at Fiumicino the day before: staying near the airport removes one luggage transfer at the worst possible moment, right after a long flight. Fiumicino also offers dinner on the canal harbour with fresh fish at non-tourist prices, and in the morning you set off rested with a single transfer.
