Sanssouci Como
A FLINTA house for art, retreat, and renewal on Lake Como
The spiritual home of Aetas Deae.
Sanssouci Como is an intimate FLINTA house for creative retreat, quiet work, image-making, writing, painting, carefully held gatherings, and renewal on Lake Como.
A house for art, quiet, and return
Sanssouci Como is the Lake Como house of Sanssouci Collection: a private, intimate setting for FLINTA guests, artists, writers, photographers, painters, facilitators, seekers, and small groups.
It is a place for photo shoots, writing retreats, painting retreats, private study, spiritual practice, seasonal gatherings, ceremony, creative work, rest, and renewal.
Creative retreat
Some work requires quiet. Writing, painting, image-making, editing, research, ritual preparation, and the slow formation of a body of work need more than a beautiful backdrop. They need privacy, rhythm, nourishment, and a house that knows how to hold concentration.
Sanssouci Como offers a protected field for creative work: a place for writers, painters, photographers, performers, teachers, and artists to enter deeper attention.
Intimate retreats with outside facilitators
Sanssouci Como hosts regular small and specific retreats with invited facilitators. These gatherings are carefully held: teaching weekends, FLINTA circles, ritual work, embodiment practice, writing retreats, image-making retreats, painting retreats, and Aetas Deae gatherings.
Guests apply to join retreats so that each gathering can remain coherent, intimate, and aligned with the spirit of the house.
Rooms and private stays
Rooms are available by enquiry for private stays, writing time, rest, recovery, retreat preparation, photo shoots, and small FLINTA groups seeking a quiet, beautiful base on Lake Como.
The house is intimate rather than large. It is suited to guests who value stillness, privacy, beauty, and a more intentional way of being hosted.
Rooted in Aetas Deae
Aetas Deae is the philosophy and field of values behind Sanssouci Collection: a commitment to care, culture, beauty, nourishment, feminine-led stewardship, and the conditions that allow people and communities to flourish.
Sanssouci Como is its spiritual home: the place where teachings, retreats, residencies, ceremonies, and creative gatherings can take form.
The setting
Lake Como is a landscape of water, mountain, stone villages, changing light, silence, depth, and beauty. Sanssouci Como belongs to this atmosphere: intimate, reflective, and held by the lake.
It is a place for slower time, deeper conversation, ritual work, creative practice, and the restoration of inner authority.
Our why
We believe retreat is not escape. It is return.
Sanssouci Como exists to hold a protected field for FLINTA guests: a place where art, body, spirit, beauty, rest, and community can come back into relationship.
