Every once in a while, a video comes along without fanfare that surprises even the most jaded of critics. Hotel Italia, shot entirely in Italy and filled with gorgeous men, romantic videography and incredible sex, is one of those videos.

It's Dario D?Alba's last summer at home before he heads off to school at NYU. He shares it at a quaint Italian hotel with his father (Pietro Cattani), his stepmother (Esmeralda Berg) and his best friend (Ettore Tosi). The story, told through subtitles and voice-overs in English, is a simple one; yet fraught with complex situations.

The tale begins with the family eating lunch, and D?Alba's eyes catch those of another hotel guest, Erik Kovak. D?Alba is immediately infatuated. Later that night, as Cattani (an unbelievably sexy older stud with an incredible body) lies awake and his sexually indifferent wife sleeps, D?Alba and Tosi (again, another hottie – in fact, to save time, let's just say that all the men in this video are hotties) engage in a friendly wrestling match that soon leads to something much more erotic. As the boys have sex in their bedroom, Cattani listens at the door with a beautiful erection poking out of his underwear. Tosi and D?Alba's scene is a mixture of the romantic and ultra-hot, as they take turns sucking and fucking each other. Both let loose two tremendous cumshots each.

Next day at the beach, the buddies watch as other guys frolic about, and Tosi dreams up a fantasy where two of the sexy guys (Marian and Andrea Albani) shower and jerk off. Beautifully shot and visually stunning, it's primarily a softcore scene that teems with eroticism. D?Alba, in the meantime, spies Kovak and starts to get to know him.

Dad Cattani, confused about his sexuality, is cruised by a guy, but his hesitance to act makes the guy split. Later, Tosi takes a shower as Cattani is shaving and notices Cattani's longing glances. The cocky best friend hops out of the shower and runs his hands across Cattani's body – then stepmom hollers and the spell is broken.

The following afternoon, the deserted hotel lobby houses only the desk clerk (Daniele Della Valle) and scrumptious guest Marco Ramazzotti. They shoot steamy looks at each other before Della Valle locks the door and falls upon the guest. Talk about service. They take turns fellating each other to orgasm, then Ramazzotti plows the lucky desk clerk over a sofa. Tosi, in the meantime, has found another entry to the hotel and spies on the couple from above, stroking his meat. Bellhop Roberto Volta interrupts him and the two engage in a hot oral encounter on the stairs.

Next scene: hands down, hottest in the video. Cattani and Tosi begin by chatting on the hotel balcony. Next thing Cattani knows, Tosi has his tongue down his throat. They head indoors and D?Alba's father and his best friend then proceed to have an electric, hypnotic fuck session. Tosi fucks Cattani in an all-too-brief scene, yet one that will send viewers over the edge. Pre-nom Best Sex Scene.

The final pairing is the ultimate D?Alba/Kovak scene and it's a hot one, but a tad anti-climactic, considering the scene before. It's done beautifully, with each boy orally servicing the other in an abandoned brick tower, then going off to a bedroom for a sexy fuck, D?Alba taking all that Kovak has to give.

Okay, the story is a bit weak, but everything else overpowers it. The fantastic sex, lush videography, gorgeous men, terrific direction, beautiful music (both classical and original), flawless editing – let's face it, the dictionary doesn't have enough adjectives to describe this video's beauty.

The video also includes about 10 minutes of behind-the-scenes footage and outtakes that showcase adorable Tosi and the beautiful men of Italy.
