House holiday rentals in Italy

Very clean and modern accommodation with a sensational view over the beautiful Calabrian surroundings. Daniela and Pietro are charming hosts and easy to reach for any questions. Upon arrival, a delicious apple pie and a good wine were already waiting for us, and honey, jam, cereals and fresh eggs from the chicken coop were waiting for our first breakfast. The fruit that grows around the house is delicious and definitely worth trying. The peace and quiet in the mountains is priceless, and it's wonderful to read a book in the shade of the olive trees. Badolato is just a quick drive away, or you can treat yourself to a walk through the beautiful vegetation and steep terraces. The crystal-clear pool water will give you the necessary kick of freshness during warm days. We love that place and extended our stay because we already felt home after seconds. Thank you for your hospitality!

We had a truly wonderful stay at Marco’s Villa. The house has excellent accommodation and is extremely well appointed. Situated within a few minutes drive of central Balestrate and all the amenities it has to offer (supermarket, butchery, pharmacy, restaurants), it is an ideal location with easy access to all the key tourist spots. We thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor living element of the property, making use of the swimming pool, hot tub, bbq and pizza oven with al fresco dining and relaxing. Giuseppa was a superb host; very welcoming, charming and helpful. We can highly recommend Marco’s property.

We had a great stay. Francesco who welcomed us gave lots of useful recommendations and was always on hand to help. The villa was as described. We loved the outhouse next to the pool and hot tub and enjoyed playing pool and cooking there. Our only downside was that there is no where to walk to nearby although this was warned of with a car being advised as essential. The beaches are 30-40 minute car journey away. We visited scala dei turchi, licata, valley of temples and Cefalu with Cefalu being a longer day trip (1.5 hours each way) but worth it. Thank you, we will back to Sicily I am sure!

Amazing and restful place. Beautiful garden, terrace. Stunning pool and private beach. The house is spacy and has all amenities. Roberto is a wonderful host, his welcoming was so warm. He was always responsive and recommended us very good places to enjoy ! Thank you again !

Cozy, spacious accommodation with great outdoor area. The saltwater pool and outdoor shower are fantastic. The kitchen is great, everything is taken care of. There are games, books, loungers and water play equipment for outdoors. We were very happy to use the outdoor kitchen, a highlight is the large grill. The house is very quiet, the huge garden with the fruit trees (which you can eat from) is also great for children. The landlord is incredibly helpful and available at any time. A car is necessary to visit the small and large cities around. We had a great time here, even in wind and rain you can find a dry place on the large covered terrace. We will be happy to come back, thanks for everything!

We had a lovely holiday. The pools are fantastically beautiful. However, we have to be quite honest, if we had not been there with friends who lived in the villa, it would have been a bit difficult in part. The seating in front of the pool house is available but very hot until the evening. Kitchen is available with everything you need but with a very very small work surface which makes it very difficult to cook. That was not a problem for us as we spent most of the time at the villa. We had chosen these cottages because the description said there is the villa and the pool house, but the pool house is a semi-detached house that is also inhabited. On the premises itself there are other cottages and there is a kiosk and another pool (which is fantastic) But there are also day guests on the property. All this is just for your information. Despite everything, we had a great stay.

This is a luxury gem hidden away in a tranquil location. The only minus off season was that most restaurants <30 minutes away were closed (October) otherwise this place is magic, clean, newly refurbished, has all necessary amenities, incredibly private and has excellent hosts and goat farmer neighbors ;)

We had three adults and two teenagers stay for four nights. The space was great for us and having the views was just what we needed after travelling from Australia. Luigi was so helpful with finding us restaurant recommendations, tours, organising us lifts from the local bus stop and letting us know where the best supermarkets are. We wish to some day return!

We had a lovely stay in this accommodation. We visited Sicily during the off season and still had great warm weather. We were welcomed by Angelo and Saro who showed us the accommodation. Both were in contact with us over messenger and gave us many tips on nice beaches and restaurants. The accommodation was very clean with a lovely interior. We had a place to park our car right beside the door. You can take your breakfast on the beach, just walk over the street and you are there. Keep in mind that the street ist right beside the accommodation and the cars drive quite fast so it can be a little louder. Thank you for the stay!

A very quiet and big home. Clean and with a nice garden. Perfect for a more laid back stay

It was a pleasure to visit Bricco Delle and our host was very helpful.

Cottage near the beach, enough space for 6 people, so everyone can sleep in beds and rooms (3 rooms!). It was just right for us 2 families. Thank you! Glad to come back!

the place was perfect for a few night exploring Elba Island. the views are unreal and it's only a few steps to the beach. there are bars and restaurants within walking distance. I wish we could stay longer!

We really enjoyed our stay at Fiorella's house, which was perfectly located in a peaceful environment. Fiorella was really responsive and welcoming. The house is well adapted to a small family. We will definitely come back to Fiorella's house

Available and helpful hosts, accommodation compliant with listings, a great base to discover the beauty of Tuscan: Siena, Pisa, Florence, Chianti, the coast, everything is accessible for 45-60 min drive.

The place is great! Of course, it's better to have a car because the town is a five minute drive. There is also a beach five minutes away. And a 20-minute drive away, you'll find heavenly beaches a wonder for the eyes Not to mention that Stefania is a great host, a big thank you to you.

This was a perfect rustic guest house in a gorgeous valley. The host was helpful and gracious.

Everything was great

Great place with a great terrace! Gianfrancesco is very helpful and easily accessible. It was a relaxed and nice stay - happy to come back!

Amazing place!!! Great host! Everything was perfect, the nature reserve Zingaro is worth a million visits! Lovely view over the sea from the terrace.

Highly recommended for people who expect privacy. It’s a modest but Clean and comfortable apartment. All things in descrption were found inside although it takes a bit time to guess for example how to turn on THE washing machine ,THE oven or warm Water. Instructions from Valentina are however clean. You can chill outside with beautiful view of perfectly maintained garden and sea view . THE biggest plus is also Access to beautiful pool, water is clean and its pretty big, circa 18 metres of length. Valentina is very caring person and despite not being present in Calabria , she gives all details about check in, house rules , places to visit, where to eat or buy local cheese. That was very helpful for us and I’m sure without her tips we would be unaware of many things around.

We felt very comfortable. Everything was as described and Antonio was very friendly and helpful! In autumn, the small village is very quiet and calm - just right for us to recharge our batteries for the winter! There are many beautiful beaches within a short drive...

Beautiful apartment in blue and white summer colors, Greek spirit. Everything was new and spotless: good bedding, equipped kitchen (missed maybe a bigger pile and bowls), nice bathroom with shower products. Free washing machines are a real plus. Special mention for the hot tub that allowed us to swim when it was too cold to enjoy the pool. The garden is also very nice with a play area for children.

Great host and great place close to all shops and beautiful beaches. Thank you for hosting Federica:)
