Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Italy

We really enjoyed our stay at Carlo‘s house. It’s been beautifully renovated and was very comfortable for the two of us. The location is great with amazing views to Badolato and the sea beyond. The wine produced from their own grapes is truly delicious (we bought some home with us). Of course the apple cake stole the show! Unfortunately, it was unexpectedly cold and wet when we arrived in mid May. The fan heater was not enough to make the house warm enough for us, so we cut our stay short. We would love to return when is hopefully warmer and we wouldn’t hesitate to stay in this house again.

We loved the villa. It was private and had an incredible setting. Ivan was very responsive and incredibly helpful in suggesting restaurants and other activities. The only issue we had was finding the unit when we arrived. It was a little confusing at first to find our way to the villa.

Louise was so sweet and her home is a little gem with the BEST bathtub EVER in the bedroom. Such a cool place and very roomie for a couple. Beautiful decor! Love the interior design touches mixing the old stone with more modern elements. The only negative was finding parking. Luckily we found a little spot all the way down the hill in front of the school….but this is Lake Como so we’re used to hiking up the hill!:) Just an FYI for anyone with mobility issues. We loved our stay and especially loved our meals out on the deck and also enjoyed Villa Lario built into the cliff just below. Fun experience:) We’d love to return sometime!

We had an absolutely amazing time at Daniela’s place - it was clean, had stunning views and was quick access to Pisa, Florence & Siena. Beautiful pool and lovely terrace with amazing views and sunsets. The kitchen also had everything we needed, including local olive oil and pasta & local wine as a welcoming gift. Daniela went above and beyond providing us with lilos and a pump for the pool too. Overall, 10/10 stay!

A 5-star experience! Renato’s house is beautiful, perfectly located and he is kind and the communication is seamless. We highly recommend it and would definitely come back! Unforgettable!

We felt like kings of the castle in Stefano and Sylvias’s place. Top of a hill with expansive views and always such a beautiful breeze. San Quirico was lovely as was Bagno Vignoni at the bottom of our hill. We could see the twinkling lights of Pienza and Montepulciano both of which were an easy drive away. Generosity in the way the villa was presented and our hosts’ welcome, with many wonderful local suggestions. Would highly recommend.

Anoeta's place is a paradise on earth. Beauty, peace and space. It is a completely stress free environment that you Will never Forget. We are going to come back for sure.

The house is beautiful and unlike anything else. What made the experience amazing was one of the hosts, Daniela. Daniela greeted us upon check in, walked us around the house and went above and beyond and booked us a wine tour where he graciously translated everything in English during the entire experience. Daniela made the place feel like home and I couldn’t recommend him and the experience he provides more.

Incredible views. Highly recommend renting a scooter to make commute up and down the hill much easier. 10/10 would stay here again.

This was our first time in Rome and we could have not selected a better place to stay. Everything was as described, Raffaella was a great host and provided excellent recommendations. Trevi Fountain right outside the window!!!

Beautiful stay with an amazing view!

A truly magical and unique stay in a castle apartment. After 24 days exploring the beauty of Italy, our arrival at Simone's third floor apartment in the village was breathtaking. This truly magnificent setting, nestled within a castle, immediately enveloped us in a serene and peaceful atmosphere. The apartment itself is not only beautifully appointed and meticulously cared for, but also boasts spectacular views across the mountain range that invited us to sit for hours, simply unwinding and soaking in the tranquility. While we ventured down the mountain a few times, we found ourselves drawn to the gentle rhythm of morning and evening walks, always culminating in a visit to the piazza to once again marvel at the stunning views Simone, our host, is simply the most considerate and attentive host I have encountered in 15 years of travel. His dedication ensured our stay was nothing short of exceptional. Grazie mille, Simone, for sharing this incredible piece of paradise with us. We depart

Paolo was the best - super helpful and informative! We went to two of his dinner recommendations and both were fantastic - Il Pinturrichio and Osteria del Buchetto. We loved the place and enjoyed a couple evenings on the terrace. We didn’t have enough time there and I look forward to coming back!

Wonderful place on top of the hill. Howard is a fantastic host and is always willing to help and provide useful information. Thanks for everything!

4 nights didn’t feel enough and we left with such a heavy heart. Laura’s place is breathtaking and pictures don’t do it any justice. We were so sad to leave the tranquil and peaceful villa. I’ve never stayed anywhere like this and look forward to going back.

Here’s a polished version of your review that keeps the friendly tone and adds a bit more clarity and flow: ⸻ We absolutely loved our stay at Andrea’s place! The home looked exactly like the photos, but the view was even more breathtaking in person. We spent so much time on the rooftop patio, taking in the incredible cityscape—and we were lucky enough to catch fireworks almost every night! The location was also super convenient. It’s just a quick 10-minute taxi ride to lots of great restaurants, and getting a taxi is really easy. Just walk out of the property, take a left, and you’ll see several taxis waiting straight ahead. The only suggestion we have is to provide an extra key to the front door. There was only one, which made it a bit tricky when our group wanted to split up during the day—we had to get creative with coordinating access. Overall, it was a fantastic 3 night stay and we’d absolutely come back!

We had a wonderful stay at pierre luigis home. It looks just like the pictures and is a very homey, relaxing place to stay. Has everything you need on hand. We loved the porch and its view and enjoyed the o of the hot tub. Great location to explore surrounding towns! Had a great time!

Authentic Tuscan countryside experience, with amazing views and excellent facilities. Well located if you want to explore all that Tuscany has to offer.

Our stay with Marta and her family could not have been nicer. We felt absolutely comfortable from the first moment. The property is absolutely spacious, lovingly furnished, incredibly well maintained and run with love. Marta and her family are absolutely lovely and take care of their guests very nicely. All wishes are fulfilled. The pizza evening was wonderful and a successful conclusion to our stay. If you are looking for a dreamy, secluded Tuscan ambience and loving hosts, "Poggio del Fattore" is the right place for you.

Staying at the barn on the Costa was an unforgettable experience. We needed a few days to fully disconnect and we ended up in the right place. The house is beautiful, the garden is enchanting, and the pool is the icing on the cake. Bear is Violeta, the custodians, were very kind. And Annamaria is such a great host. We didn't want to leave.

We loved our stay there. The host was super responsive, and check in was seamless and professional. The place is clean and lovely, the view spectacular. We had a great time.

The villa is in an excellent location. There are 2 excellent restaurants on the street. We were able to sit outside and have an excellent view of the ocean . There are also 2 grocery stores. And there are several bus stops. It was easy to get on the local bus to go to Positano and Amalfi.

The views from the villa were absolutely stunning. We felt right at home and enjoyed making dinner and sitting outside on the patio. Pietro was so welcoming and even drove us to the grocery store so we could stock up on essentials. Would highly recommend anyone looking to stay in Palermo to stay here. Private, comfortable, and beautiful. If you are able to rent a car, that is recommended. Note, an international driving permit (IDP) is required and needs to be obtained prior to renting a car.

Solid stay in a great place. The laundry machine was confusing and more could be done to support that process.
