Vacation rentals with a fireplace in South Italy

Sonia and Paulo have invested so much time, energy and love into Villa Clelia. Together they have shaped it into a magical paradise where the weary traveller can relax in elegant comfort. No detail has been left untouched from the stylishly equipped and spacious accommodation with its al fresco dining patio to the splendid garden and pool area where majestic olive trees stand proud in a sea of closely cropped green lawn, and where aromatic jasmine cascades down the wall to the shimmering swimming pool, lit up like a film set with lanterns at night and blessed with birdsong by day. Sonia and Paulo are the world's perfect hosts. Charming, friendly, attentive and super helpful. They will guide you in whatever direction your interests lie, whether that be in the beautiful cultural and historical villages and towns in the area, the long uninterrupted beaches and bars of the coast, or hiking in the Aspromonte National Park. The local food is delightful whether you eat out or in. Heaven.

Tusind tak for et virkelig dejligt ophold i jeres smukke hus. Vi nød den smukke udsigt fra terrassen og at bo på bjerget, hvor huset lå i private omgivelser. Alt var pænt og rent, gode køkkenfaciliteter, gode senge, behagelige møbler på terrassen og fint badeværelse med vaskemaskine. Michelas mand hentede os i bil og kørte os til huset. Han var meget hjælpsom og gav os en masse gode tips og råd. God kommunikation og hurtig og hjælpsom respons. Jeg vil varmt anbefale denne bolig som kun ligger 10 min på gåben fra Maiori, en hyggelig by med den bedste badestrand. De bedste hilsner Mette

Hervorragend. Ein ganz besonderes Haus für Naturliebhaber. einsam in einer Privatbucht gelegen. Man hört nur die Vögel und das Meer. Sonnenuntergang inklusive. Sehr netter Gastgeber. Er hat uns sogar frischen Fisch gefangen und köstlich zubereitet. Unvergesslicher Aufenthalt.

Dit was de tweede keer dat ik in het appartement van Laura verbleef, en ik hoop er zeker nog eens te komen. Het appartement is schattig en heel leuk en sfeervol ingericht. Het terras is schitterend. De locatie kan niet beter, meteen in het centrum en toch rustig. Kortom fantastisch

We had one of the best stays ever at this Airbnb – on a scale of 1 to 5, we’d give it a 10! The property is beautifully appointed, spotlessly clean, and super comfortable. Nestled on the side of a hill, the location offers breathtaking views of the town, sea, and Mt Vesuvius. While the 200 steps down to town added a bit of a workout to our daily routine (10 minutes down and 20 minutes back up); we managed just fine and we are in our mid to late 60’s. The hosts picked us up from the train station, drove us directly to the home and took is back when our stay ended We do recommend that anyone with mobility issues check with the hosts to arrange personal transportation before booking, as taxis and Ubers won’t pick you up right at the doorstep. The hosts are exceptional & some of the nicest folks we have met. They are more like concierges than typical Airbnb hosts. They arranged day trips, restaurant reservations and even a private guide to Pompeii. Can’t wait to come back!

What an amazing place to stay in Matera! We absolutely loved our time at Francesco’s wonderful sassi apartment. It was stunning to stay in an actual sassi, and the atmosphere of the place was authentic as well as comfortable and beautiful style-wise. We loved the decor. The bed was comfortable and the huge bathtub in the spa area was heavenly. There are very good restaurants right by the apartment, including the one directly across the street. It was so nice having the patio right out front looking out on the incredible town of Matera. We had lunch and aperitivo out there and it was pretty heavenly. Francesco is a kind and responsive host, and we were so happy to stay at his wonderful place!

We stayed at the apartment for 7 nights and we had a fantastic holiday. Ivona and Michael were amazing hosts. Micheal recommend plenty of day trips, restaurants and sightseeing spots. Michael gave us a tour of the apartment and pool area and helped with anything we needed. Ivona was very responsive and helped us arrange our return transfers. We loved all of the little special touches in the apartment, felt like home away home. This apartment and the hosts exceeded our expectations. Location is perfect! Thank you!

Diese Unterkunft ist ein Juwel! Wir verbrachten eine wunderbare Woche hier. Perfekte Ausstattung auch mit Kleinkind (Geschirr, Hochstuhl, Bett). Sogar Strandtücher werden zur Verfügung gestellt. Das Haus ist noch schöner als auf den Fotos und makellos sauber, das Bett sehr bequem. Die Zufahrtsstrasse ist nicht asphaltiert aber mit normalem Fahrzeug problemlos machbar. Und zu allem hin ist Romano ein sehr sympathischer, zuverlässiger und zuvorkommender Gastgeber, Nachrichten werden immer innert kürzester Zeit beantwortet. Wir empfehlen diese Unterkunft von Herzen weiter und kommen gerne wieder.

Very nice appartment with a good shades garden. Good communication and flexible check out times available. Good location just a few minutes walk to the harbour and the Old town

What a wonderful place to stay in Lecce! This is a stunningly beautiful and spacious apartment in a gorgeous old palazzo. The location is amazing, as it’s right in the heart of the centro storico but also very quiet and private inside. The decor is classic and elegant, as well as welcoming and comfortable. We both slept great in the SUPER comfortable king-sized bed. Aperitivo on the balcony before dinner was pretty much heaven for us. The host met us and was very friendly and welcoming - a lovely person. One of our very favorite places to stay ever.

Absolutely loved our stay at this apartment in Rome! The location was perfect—walking distance to so many iconic sites, restaurants, and shops. The apartment was clean, stylish, and packed with amenities that made our stay super comfortable. Highly recommend for anyone visiting the city!

Our stay at Casa Gentile was absolutely perfect! The home was somehow even more beautiful than in the pictures, with the most gorgeous view of the Sea. Fiorella assisted us throughout our stay and she made our time in Praiano amazing. Gennaro and Fiorella arranged private transportation from Naples to Praiano, making our commute much easier. Fiorella greeted us and gave us a tour of the house, printed bus schedules, and even sent a detailed list of restaurant and beach recommendations. Her family took great care of us, helping us bring luggage up steps and even picking fresh fruit for us throughout our stay. I cannot emphasize enough just how welcoming Fiorella was, she certainly was the best host we’ve ever had. As for Praiano, there are internal busses that take you around the beautiful town, as well as busses to Positano and Amalfi, very close near by. The busses were often late, but I’m sure it’s because we came during peak season. Anyways, we can’t wait to be back one day. Grazie!

This is a beautiful apartment in an incredibly central location - literally around the corner from Piazza di Spagna. It was lovely to sit out on the balcony in the morning and in the evening, and enjoy being in the heart of Rome. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. Plus, super comfy bed !

Marina was exceptionally helpful before, during and after our stay in the Old Stone House in Perast!

Staying in Paolo’s beautiful AirBnB was definitely a highlight of our vacation! The apartment was spotless and well equipped, but it was the rooftop terrace with its sublime views that made it extra special. We had coffee and local pastries there every morning, and a glass of wine there every evening! Though the apartment was beautiful, what made our stay the most memorable was the warmth and generosity of our host. Paolo not only went out of his way to pick us up at the train station in Foligno, he drove us all the way to Assisi for our departing train. In between he was always friendly and available to respond any questions or needs we had. We couldn’t have had a better five days in Spello. Thanks Paolo!

Our stay in Taormina was absolutely unforgettable, and Sabrina's Airbnb was a true highlight of our trip. The location couldn’t have been better—just a short walk to the city center, yet tucked away enough to enjoy peace and quiet. The views from the property were breathtaking, and we found ourselves pausing often just to take them in. The space itself was beautifully decorated, with thoughtful touches that made it feel both elegant and welcoming. We couldn’t have asked for a better home base during our time in Sicily. Highly recommend!

Très bien située pour visiter tous sites du sud des Pouilles à la journée, cette maison est magnifique avec un grand espace extérieur. Les espaces intérieurs sont grands et beaux, la cuisine très agréable ainsi que la piscine. La piscine est un peu loin de la maison et il y a un bâtiment en construction dans le jardin ce qui gâche un peu la vue c’est dommage. Mais l’ensemble est tout de même très agréable !

Where do I begin? This was our best experience to date! Claudia’s love for this property shines through, and the thoughtful care and attention to every generous detail made our experience so memorable! From her beautiful, well appointed home to the stunning views and outdoor spaces - we soaked up all the gems she made available to us. Her hospitality was above and beyond, with a fully stocked pantry of delicious food to checking in on us each day, she gave us so much information to make sure we were set! To top it off, we were able to work with her personal and extremely attentive concierge, Aniello, who helped us plan our trip. It didn’t stop there, Claudia’s relationship with a local restaurant gave us access to a free shuttle and Aniello was responsive to every need. We had full access to her amazing hotel as well. This home is higher in the hills, but you can easily walk behind the house (it’s a bit of a down hill walk to a path) and in a few minutes you hit the cute town.

We absolutely loved staying at Vittorio’s villa! Vittorio and his wife were amazing and met us at the place to help with our luggage and show us around. The views were stunning and the place was very comfortable! We will definitely come back again.

Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt, die Woche verging leider wie im Flug. Die private Lage inmitten der schönen Natur ist einzigartig und den liebevoll bepflanzten Garten von Antonija und Ante kann man nur lieben. Die Aussicht und die tägliche Erfrischung im Pool sind unbeschreiblich. Die Unterkunft bietet alles was man braucht, es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Man fühlt sich schnell wie zuhause. Die Insekten haben nicht gestört, es war eher interessant das Leben zu beobachten. Die Wespen kommen nur zum Trinken und interessieren sich nicht für uns. Beim Essen hatten wir immer eine Zitronella Kerze angezündet und somit keine Probleme mit Insekten. Wer die Natur und einen privaten Ort zum Energie tanken sucht, ist hier gut aufgehoben! Bis bald und danke an Antonija und Familie 🤗

Antonello and his family went above and beyond for me and my guests during our stay. Angela was an amazing employee and I wish I could have an Angela for everywhere I go. The villa is magical and truly indescribable. You have to be there to experience it. The views are breathtaking and the village is quiet and precious.

Daniele’s home was beautiful and very tastefully decorated. The whole team were very helpful particularly Francesca who We had most of our dealings with Francesca. She was brilliant very helpful and quick to respond to all our queries from local buses good restaurants and places to go and always very friendly. We enjoyed going down to the public beach and hiring a small boat for a few hours so we could view the magnificent coastline. Driving to different places wasn’t always easy as the roads are narrow and twisty and busy. We would definitely recommend hiring a small car as there are so many magnificent places to see.

I want to give a special thank you to Lucrezia and Nadia. They made our stay very special and so nice. The home was beautiful and loved being there every minute. Very clean space with such beautiful landscaping. If ever back in Taormina, I would love to stay here again! Grazie!!

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.
