From a Passion to a Purpose: The Story of SAMI

Hello! I’m Sammantha Cicivizzo, founder of SAMI. After more than 20 years in the international business world and 4 years managing Airbnb properties, I decided to turn my passion into a mission. SAMI was born from the desire to provide a service with structure, heart, and complete integrity.

What SAMI Does

SAMI is a property
management and short-term rental company dedicated to making guests feel at home and owners feel at ease — with complete transparency and trust at every step. We believe every property has its own story, and every guest deserves an experience as unique as the space they’re staying in.

The Strength Behind SAMI

SAMI is led by two complementary forces:
Sammantha’s strategic vision and business leadership and Tiziano’s operational precision and hospitality expertise.
Together, they have built a management model that is both high-performing and human-centered, designed to protect every property as an investment asset while elevating the guest experience to 5-star standards.

Their partnership brings balance—strategy and execution, service and structure, heart and discipline.
This shared leadership is what allows SAMI to consistently deliver strong returns, exceptional guest satisfaction, and long-term trust with property owners.

Two leaders. One standard: Excellence.

Sammantha Cicivizzo, Founder & President, brings strategic vision, a welcoming spirit, and over two decades of experience in international management. Her dedication to excellence and transparency is the heartbeat of SAMI.

Tiziano Santandrea, Co-Founder, brings over a decade of hands-on experience as both a property owner and guest experience specialist. His attention to detail and genuine care help ensure every stay reflects SAMI’s high standards.
