La Casella Halfboard 1Week

The resort and its setting

La Casella Half-Board, 1-Week is an independent, RCI-affiliated property set in the countryside outside Ficulle, a small Umbrian town known for its quiet pace and views over olive groves and vineyards. As the name suggests, the week comes with a half-board arrangement — breakfast and dinner included — built around regional Umbrian cooking, so guests have a reason to return to the resort each evening rather than seeking out restaurants. Units are designed with both families and couples in mind, with layouts geared toward a comfortable week-long stay rather than a short break. This is a rural, low-key property rather than a resort complex with extensive on-site facilities, which suits owners and renters who want Umbria itself to be the main attraction.

The area and things to do

Ficulle sits in a part of Umbria still largely untouched by mass tourism, which is part of its appeal. Medieval villages dot the surrounding hills, many with historic centres, small markets and local producers worth exploring on foot. Wine lovers will find vineyards within easy driving distance offering tastings of Umbrian reds and whites, and olive oil production is part of the everyday landscape here. For bigger day trips, both Assisi and Perugia are roughly 30–45 minutes away by car, giving access to major art, architecture and history without needing to relocate for the week. The region rewards slower travel — wandering a hill town, stopping at a local market, or simply taking in the countryside — more than it does a packed sightseeing schedule.

Selling or renting a week here

Owners who no longer use their week at La Casella Half-Board, 1-Week can list it for resale or rent directly on BidMyTimeshare.com. As a peer-to-peer marketplace, we don't set prices — owners decide what to ask based on their week, season and unit — and buyers or renters contact sellers directly through the platform. Sellers pay a one-time listing fee to post their week; there's no commission taken on the sale or rental itself.

Because this is an independent resort, any resale transfer goes through the resort's own owners' association or management rather than a branded timeshare company's resale desk. If you're selling, ask the resort or management company directly for the current transfer fee and whether a right of first refusal applies before you agree a price with a buyer — these details aren't published figures we can quote here, so confirm them in writing as part of the sale process. The same applies to the current annual maintenance fee: get the up-to-date figure from the resort rather than relying on older documentation, since these amounts can change year to year.

Buyers should also ask what exactly transfers with a resale week — for example, whether RCI membership or points associated with the week carry over automatically or need to be set up separately by the new owner, and whether there are any outstanding fees tied to the week being sold. Clarifying this upfront avoids surprises after the transfer is complete.

Practical notes for buyers and renters

Renters are typically drawn to this kind of property for the half-board meal plan and the rural Umbrian setting rather than resort amenities, so it suits travellers planning to spend their days exploring rather than staying on-site. If you're renting, confirm with the owner which week or season is on offer, since availability through RCI affiliation may affect exchange flexibility depending on how the week was originally booked. As with any resale or rental, it's worth asking the seller or owner directly about the unit size, the exact dates, and any resort-specific rules around check-in and meal times before committing.
