Vacation rentals in Gelso

Wonderful villa and host. Everything exactly like photos and description, very quiet area so we had a very peaceful holiday. Kitchen is amazingly well equipped so cooking was a joy. Villa very cosy with lots of lovely seating areas, and comfy beds. Swimming pool area is amazing, we spent hours in the pool, our son (4) lovely playing with the toys and inflatables that had been left out for us. Lots of very thoughtful touches which made our stay so enjoyable, from the colouring pencils for our son, to the huge buffet and stocked fridge which kept us fed for days! I couldn’t fault the hosting and villa, such a wonderful peaceful stay!

I will definitely be coming back to Carmelo's. He is very kind and helpful, the house is beautiful. The sea view is breathtaking.

If you want to visit the Aeolian Islands with an enchanting sea in front of a wonderful terrace and everything you need but without the chaos of a tourist spot, this is undoubtedly the ideal place. We loved Lipari and in particular Canneto (5 minutes by car from Lipari). The apartment is clean and well maintained and Ivan is more than available. I really hope to be able to go back soon!!

Villa Pomelia is perfectly located in Santa Marina - walkable to the harbour, great restaurants and every amenity. The Villa is a superb space with great outdoor space and looks over the sea towards Lipari. It’s really well maintained and very clean. We had a wonderful few days here. The only ‘disappointment’ was in the bathroom where there was no additional WC paper nor shower accessories. Otherwise perfect 😊

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Maria Rosa's! She was incredibly helpful even on arrival – we got lost, and she picked us up without further ado. Throughout the stay, she was always available, but always reserved, so you had absolute peace and privacy. The place was very clean, stylishly decorated and had a very special charm that we immediately took to heart. The view was amazing and the sea was just a stone's throw away. At this time of year, we had the beach almost entirely to ourselves – fantastic! Other cities, activities and destinations are also easily accessible by car. So if you are looking for peace and relaxation, but do not want to miss out on small adventures, this is the place to be. Highly recommended!

Nice, clean, well located, well renovated appartment. The host is phenomenal and genuine customer service helps make the stay a beautiful experience. We find there are two Airbnb owner profiles: the Innkeeper which makes sure all is ok or the Investor who cares more about its investment than its guests. Marco is one of the best Innkeeper we have ever had. Thank you Marco! Keep it up! Sophie and Pierre.

nice house to spend days with family members or friends

Small, clean, well-equipped and arranged studio just 5 minutes walk from the port.

First off I will echo the other reviews and state: do not underestimate the drive down the hill to the house, communicate with Tina about it well before booking! That out of the way, this is one of the most spectacular air bnbs I've ever been to. The place has all you need and is very well done in terms of the facilities, water installations etc.; the SETTING & outdoor area, however, is outstanding: very private, lying at a hill in serene quietness. radiant days in absolute peace (barely any car noise even making it down the hill), a sunset that might move you to tears, followed by a night of stars that humbled us deeply. Fascinating nature around to explore in hikes if you're into it! We cherished the time here so much - thank you Tina for your warm and considerate presence, we wish you only the best :)
