Family-friendly vacation rentals in South Italy

I had a wonderful stay! Thank your for everything 🩷

Excellent. A very special house for nature lovers. Secluded in a private bay. You can only hear the birds and the sea. Sunset included. Very nice host. He even caught fresh fish and prepared it deliciously. Unforgettable stay.

Praiano is spectacular and your property is awesome a great base. Giovanni was amazing and extremely helpful especially on arrival ( bags up stairs) he looked after us at checkin and was a fountain of knowledge. He gave great recommendations especially our boat trip for the day which amazing. Do take note there are a lot of stairs but well worth the views and sanctuary. We loved our stay

Wow! What an amazing stay we have had! Hosts were always available with queries, supplied lots of information and tips in relation to Dubrovnik and left maps/guidebook also. Attention to detail was incredible and absolutely everything was thought of - board games, books, coffee machine with pods and little milks. The apartment was spotless, so clean, the views are out of this world - loads of room on the terrace to sunbathe, sit in the shade and then have a dip in the hot tub with the views. Air conditioning was great after a day strolling around the Old Town - the bus was at the top of the hill which takes you into Old Town Dubrovnik within 10/15 minutes. The hosts even sent us the timetable of the bus schedule - absolutely everything was thought out. Thank you for an amazing stay!!!

We had an amazing time. The place was very clean, views were stunning. Host was attentive and responsive. Care was given to provide many items to ensure we had all the items we needed on our arrival. Extremely thoughtful! We had two young children and were please to have everything we needed for them to lunch on arrival. So many special touches!! We had a hard time leaving, we hope to be back soon! Special thanks to Antonio, we won’t say goodbye but rather arrivederci !

Truly a slice of paradise! From the moment we arrived, Gabriella and her family made us feel incredibly welcome. They were kind, attentive, and always there to help, even going above and beyond to make our son’s birthday extra special. The villa is beautiful, peaceful, and perfectly located—with breathtaking views and a bus stop just around the corner for easy trips to Amalfi. After the busy tourist spots, it was such a joy to return to the tranquility of Furore. We also loved the fantastic restaurant just across the road—highly recommend it! Thank you Gabriella and family for your warmth and generosity. We hope to return one day and highly recommend this place to anyone seeking a relaxing Amalfi Coast escape with traditional Italian charm, amazing views & warm family welcome !

A beautiful and tranquil setting. We took walks along the country road surrounded by olive trees and wild flowers. The garden and pool are beautiful and we spent lots of time there. We also explored Spongano and our beloved town of Specchia. Salento is magical and so is Villa Ada.

Serena's place is better than the pictures. If you want somewhere to relax off the beaten path on the Almalfi Coast this is the place. Serena is amazing and so helpful with recommendations and ideas for transportation. Serena's dad picked us up and took us back to the ferry terminal as well as the mini market so we didn't have to walk up the hill. We would definitely stay here again.

There are no words to describe the kindness and helpfulness of Mrs. Maria Teresa; a wonderful creature who loves animals as most people should. The property is absolutely perfect for what my needs were. Very clean, very comfortable mattresses, complete with everything you needed (from detergent to extra virgin olive oil made by them), including a beach umbrella, beach towels and even new slippers for the whole family. What can I say, people should take an example from this girl on how to run a B&B. I hope to return soon. 💛

Staying at Castello Macchiaroli was truly one of the most unforgettable experiences of our entire trip to Italy. The castle itself is breathtaking—steeped in over a thousand years of history, yet so warm and welcoming that it instantly felt like home. Gisella was a wonderful host—so kind, thoughtful, and easy to communicate with. And Paola… what a gem! Her private tour through the castle was fascinating, personal, and full of charm. Exploring ancient tunnels and seeing the castle’s legacy was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Relaxing by the fireplace, surrounded by history, was nothing short of magical. We left feeling like we’d stepped inside a fairytale. If you’re looking for something truly unique and soul-stirring, this is it. Thank you Gisella and Paola for sharing such a special part of the world

The accommodation is fantastic, a great solution to truly live a local experience. Isolated trulli in a countryside setting without chaos, well furnished and garden with pool great for Bruno, our 4-legged friend. Onofrio and Nadia were very kind, truly impeccable hospitality that made us feel like we were at home. We love Puglia and will definitely be back!

Thanks for letting us stay at your little slice of paradise. The cottage was as stunningly beautiful as the pictures show and we enjoyed being away from the hustle and bustle of our normal city life. The surrounding area was breath taking to see with an abundance of pretty mountainside towns. We would definitely recommend hiring a car to stay here as we did, this will make getting to places easy. We particularly enjoyed our cooking class, it was both interesting and delicious. Our hosts were great throughout our stay. Catherina was very informative, with super clear instructions and a speedy reply she made sure everything went seemlessly. Dina and Nino came to meet us to show us to the cottage, they were extremely warm and welcoming from the get go. We really enjoyed getting to know them both a bit more during our cooking class, there were many laughs at dinner with them and they made us feel welcome and relaxed. We will honestly never forget this experience. Thank you so much x

We liked it very much at Antonella's and we would come back any time! A very nice hostess with a great apartment! Thank you

We stayed here in between two "active" weeks one hiking and biking. This week was intended to be a "rest" week. We relaxed all week. The location made it easy; beautiful surroundings with olive and fruit trees and grapevines. Pietro and Daniella were working on land some evenings; waving as they went by. Not at all intrusive. When we arrived they greeting us and showed us around. Leaving us bread, eggs, coffee, milk, wine and a homemade cake which we savored all week. During the week they answered questions promptly. We cooked our meals at home most of the time to break up the travel of eating out. The grocery market is closed 1-4pm as our many shops. Since it was pre-season not much was open added to our relaxation. Sitting by the pool or swimming was a delight. If you are looking for a relaxing and restful stay come here! Thank you for a restful stay.

We had a wonderful stay at the apartment which has beautiful roof top terraces making you feel away from the busy city of Naples. We had a slight issue with check in as our map took us to the wrong location however the host was incredibly responsive and helpful, guiding us to the correct location. We found the location of the apartment ideal in a lovely area of Napoli. The apartment was clean and personified the lovely personality of the host. We found the washing machine to be particularly dirty however was assured this to be a one off. We left having enjoyed our stay at the apartment and would definitely recommend to family and friends, considering a stay in Napoli.

I highly recommend Claudio and Daniela's house. It exceeded all our expectations. This is an old house located in the countryside a few minutes from Polignano. It has a huge plot of land full of olive trees. Although the owners live in the house, there is a lot of privacy. The place was perfect: beautiful and very comfortable. They also have a terrace with a table and chairs where you can enjoy your breakfasts or dinners in absolute tranquility! Daniela and Claudio were always willing to help!! We loved it. 😍😍 Thank you for everything!!!!

Wow, what to say. Francescopaolo's apartment was all that we'd hoped for. The terrace is beautiful, lots of places to relax and of course the amazing view. The living accommodation is bright, airy and bigger than it looks in the photos. Francescopaolo has lots of beautiful ornaments, pots and pictures - loved the mermaid table! The kitchen doesn't feel small as it's really well designed, lots of storage and had absolutely everything that you could possibly need. The icing on the cake was access to the sea and we had some beautiful swims down there, the water was just gorgeous. Location was good and we loved Minori, lots of amazing restaurants and it didn't feel touristy at all, it was quiet but still had a good atmosphere, especially in the evening when everyone comes out for their passeggiata. Francescopaolo was a great host, good at communication, sent lots of information on local places and friendly. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!

Our stay at Felicia's was magical! A beautifully located, secluded trullo - very easily accessible pretty towns all around. Check-in was easy, Felicia was always available and helpful, gave us many tips for the area and the Trullo has a fantastic pool that we used every day. We can 100% recommend Felicia and her place!

Fortunate to have 11 nights in the Royal apartment. Suzana looked after us as Jadranka was away. Both though were responsive when needed assistance. As described in the listing with wonderful views across Lapad bay. There are 4 apartments in the complex along with the Hosts accommodation. Romantic apartment is at the top same level as pool area. Next down was the Royal, Harmony a few steps further down and Marine the lowest. All very private and didn’t hear any unnecessary noise from other guests. 61 steep steps from street to apartment door and the shower is in the hydro bath so a bit of a high step there. My wife was a bit hesitant as she has had a hip replacement couple of years ago but found a routine! Using the elevators at nearby More and Kompas hotels to get back from the promenade was a good handy hint! Amenities were good. Some instructions would be helpful especially using the appliances. Info on recycling would be useful too. It was very comfortable and we would recommend i

Anna’s place is truly special. A great location to see everything on your list in Puglia. You will be blown away at how photos don’t do the property and rooms justice.

Amazing home in a beautiful place! Unforgettable

Located about 30 mins by bus outside Dubrovnik it us definitely worth the extra effort. The view from the patio is stunning and there is everything you need provided. If you are looking to escape the manic main areas and don't want an all-inclusive experience this is it. the villa is on a main route direct to the old town and if you buy the dubrovnik pass the bus is free. There is a faily steep walk and a fair few steps to reach the villa so you need to be fit but you can use bolt or taxi to the property. great value for money

We stayed for 4 nights with our family, children age 4 & 2. We couldn’t have chosen a better place to stay and explore Dubrovnik. The apartment is perfectly located just steps from the old town / city walls, for a short trip this was ideal. Everything is on your doorstep, you can walk everywhere. The house is beautiful and Ivona has done a wonderful job of designing it. It was so well equipped with everything you needed. Michael welcomed us and even arranged our transfer from the airport. They had left us a selection of snacks including bread, milk, jams, coffee pods, wine, beer which was great. The swimming pool area is a bonus and we enjoyed an afternoon swimming and enjoying the views. The whole complex is spotless and so well maintained. I was a little apprehensive as of whether the children would enjoy Dubrovnik, however they loved it and I would recommend. We hope to return one day and if you are considering booking, book early, you will not disappointed. Thank you!

The villa is a gem. The views are unbelievable, the peacefulness was amazing and there are not enough words for the amount of help Diana gave us. Diana waited for us with fruit, charcuterie board, drinks and home made pastry. She set up all the transportation we requested and gave us suggestions of things to do. She even brought us flour at 9:00 pm so we can make crepes. The only thing that you can’t do is walk to places. So, if you are a walker and want a lot of things to do all day, you might want to pick a different villa. We spent time enjoying the views and peacefulness and had time to go sightseeing.
