Family-friendly holiday rentals in Emilia-Romagna

Stefania was an incredibly gracious host! The playful decor mixed with the historical architecture was delightful and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in her beautiful home. The location was walkable for all of the locations that we wanted to visit in Ravenna, and we would love to visit this beautiful city and Stefania’s beautiful home again!

We had an absolute perfect stay in Salverio and Lorenzo's flat. It was incredibly spacious - very unusual to have a 3 bedroom/3 bath flat to rent in such a highly sought after part of Firenze. The decor was a perfect blend of antiques and art mixed with contemporary furnishings. Having a washer/dryer was a fantastic addition. Our favorite part of the flat was the rooftop terrace at sunset. You feel like you are on top of all of Firenze looking across the buildings. The duomo view was breathtaking. It was magical and truly stunning. The location could not be more suitable for proximity to all of the sights and indulge in luxury shopping. Salverio and Lorenzo were so helpful and accommodating. We will most assuredly be back! Thank you to you both!

If this place is available , STOP looking ! It’s breathtaking ! The whole apartment is gorgeous but the view from both the small terrace and the huge one is heaven . Unobstructed views all around . Literally 360 degree view of paradise . Everything was perfect . Thank you so much Anna

We really enjoyed our 4 nights stay. The view's were lovely and there are some really nice walks around which you can coordinate getting the train back as the station is within walking distance. The family are really lovely and generous. the breakfast supplies are great. Highly recommend

It couldn't have been better. The location is fantastic in the pedestrian center of town in a courtyard. The very large shaded patio with fragrant jasmine, colorful vines, and kumquats, the well equipped kitchen with tons of teas and coffees, the comfy beds - we never wanted to leave. Cristiano used to be a theater scenograph and it shows in the eclectic decor. Both Cristiano and Sara were absolutely charming - they run the enoteca downstairs (don't miss their various cheese and hams!) - and provided very helpful info on parking, restaurants etc. The unit is one easy set of stairs up, and Cristiano helped get our suitcases up. There is one bedroom and a foldable sofa on the first level. The second bedroom and bath are on the top floor mezzanine via a a spiral staircase. The only downside was that it gets quite hot in that bedroom and the A/C was not sufficient. But all in all, it was an exceptional stay. We can't wait to be back!

Without any doubt the most special Airbnb I have ever stayed at. My multigenerational family came here after a rough year and it was a tonic. It is not often in one’s life you have the opportunity to sit and look out at views like that hour after hour - the towns across the bay, the boats coming and going (including a submarine), the lights coming on in the evening… It is so much better than any words or photos could express. The swims were also outstanding. Brian was delightful and so helpful with recommendations. We will be back

I was in Florence for work for 2 weeks and this apartment was perfect. Very comfortable and well equipped with a beautiful back garden. Less than a 10 minute walk to grocery stores and restaurants. It is also an easy 30-40 minute walk into the historic centre but also easily connected with busses or the tram. The hosts were very welcoming and responsive. I would definitely recommend!

Beautiful and comfortable home from which to tour Ravenna! Will recommend Elena’s house to our friends. We were so happy. It is a wonderful place for travelers to feel at home when far from home!

My wife and I stayed at Marco’s for a week for our honeymoon. We both loved it. Pool was beautiful and peaceful. The property is fantastic the pictures don’t do it justice. As amazing as it looks in the photos it is 1000 times better in person. The front gate made everything feel so secure. Walking up the steps to the guest house we were hit with a nice floral smell with all the daisies growing everywhere. Such a peaceful and beautiful property. The view was stunning looking over the mountains. The place was perfect. The kitchen was everything we needed and more, the pull out couch allowed us to relax and watch tv at the end of the night. The patios were perfect for coffees and meals. And the bed was nice and comfortable. Marco left a flower pedal heart on the bed for us which was a nice personal touch. We met his parents (who stay in the main house) they were very kind and gave us our privacy. There was lots of information about the area and things to do. Wish we stayed longer

As others have said—all of the reviews are spot on! A unique setting in the countryside about 30 minutes drive to Parma on mountain roads, beautiful historic building and grounds (with tastefully updated bathrooms to go with the historic charm, plus even a clothes washer and dryer you can access, a rarity in Italy), and a consummate host in Maria Teresa. Using her knowledge and connections to get personalized tours of smaller local parmigiano and prosciutto factories was a real highlight, and we especially enjoyed the nearby Torrechiara castle as well. The kids loved her animals too. 10/10 stay!

Our stay are Silvia’s was outstanding! We would highly recommend it! The space was incredible and Silvia and Pier are awesome hosts. We would encourage future guests to schedule the Parmesan tour and the Balsamic trip. We also were so happy that Pier was willing to share his culinary dinner skills with us! Delicious and so fun! And we just couldn’t get enough time with sweet Spike! Our castle stay could only have been better if we were there longer!

Très bon Logement très propre dans un environnement calme. Très bon accueil de Patrizia. A recommander sans hésiter

The place was excellent, the first week we felt no need going places. So much to do in and around Barga. The house gives you the time to relax and on top of that Laura was more than helpful! Top host and we are certainly coming back and for a longer period so we can explore a bit more and maybe even visiting Sienna or Florence. Sound of Barga has another hidden gem: a separate appartment in the back which is not shown on Airbnb but available if you are with 4. Paolo and Laura, thank for this wonderful experience. Oh, luckily we took our e-bikes: cycling in Lucca and convenient in Barga. We love this place!

Traumhaft gelegenes Airbnb, etwas abseits vom touristischen Treiben. Eine Oase der Ruhe, welche wir nach dem Stress in der Stadt sehr genossen haben. Die Gastgeberin war sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich. Kleine bezaubernde Details in der Wohnung, machten den Aufenthalt noch schöner. Jederzeit sehr gerne wieder … 🥰

Wir waren nur für einen Zwischenstopp hier. Die Unterkunft ist sehr idyllisch, wir haben uns sofort wohl gefühlt.

Onze dagen in het huis van Riccardo waren heerlijk en ontspannen. Alles was compleet en het ontbrak ons aan niets. De hoogte punten waren de heerlijke taart, het zwembad en het ontbijt. Deze plek bevelen we zeer aan. Wij wensen Riccardo en zijn familie alle goeds toe.

Our stay at Marina and Paolo’s hilltop home in the Tuscan hills was nothing short of magical. The house is a true piece of paradise, immaculately clean, with breathtaking views that left us in awe every day. Marina and Paolo were incredibly kind hosts, making us feel completely at home. The swimming pool was fantastic, and the entire experience immersed us in the charm of Tuscan life. We highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for an unforgettable getaway!

A truly unforgettable experience! Staying on this boat in La Spezia was one of the absolute highlights of our entire trip. The hosts were incredibly accommodating, kind, and helpful from start to finish. They went above and beyond—not only making us feel welcome but also taking us on the most amazing day boat trip. It was an incredible way to explore the coast and truly a core memory from our time in Italy. They also gave fantastic recommendations for things to do and places to eat in the area. If you’re looking for a unique, warm, and memorable stay with the best views, this is it. We can’t recommend it highly enough.

We had an amazing week in the villa. Even if hou have other people living there, you feel so calm and free. There is a designated spot for each appartements to eat so you can enjoy good time outside. The site is so clean and we ser that the host take good care of everything. We had a lot of recommandations to discover te surroundings and the host was so easy to reach when we needed. All the commodities were there, the appartement is well equiped. I strongly suggest to rent a car, it’s the easiest way to enjoy your stay there. I surely recommand this place and I would go back again.

Posto nel cuore della Toscana incantevole. Pulitissimo e curato. Siete circondati da profumi di limoni, aranci, spezie. Piscina con vista spettacolare sulla Toscana. Stanze spaziose e pulite fornite di barbecue. Assolutamente consigliato.

Um espaço encantador e acolhedor. A Emanuelle nos esperou e nos acolheu muito bem em sua residência. Um ótimo lugar para voltar no tempo e ver as origens da Itália. Voltaríamos com certeza!

Anna was a fantastic host, who treated us with the upmost respect and kindness. While her place is a bit difficult to find at first, once you're there, you're in one of the most beautiful scenes we've seen during our time in Italy. Also, it was close enough that we were still early able to travel into Florence each day we were there. Anna was so nice in providing us with breakfast each morning, which included apricot jam from her fruit trees and homemade bread. We would recommend this spot for anyone looking for a quiet place to stay outside of the busy city.

Alessandro nous a accueillis avec beaucoup de patience et de gentillesse. Un hôte très amical que nous prendrons plaisir à retrouver une prochaine année. Ma fille le remercie d'avoir retrouvé son doudou après notre départ, ennième preuve de sa gentillesse.

Cristina is a lovely host and the place is beautiful. I’d highly recommend the breakfast that Cristina makes completely fresh!! The swimming pool is immaculate and the whole atmosphere of the place is just lovely. We spent 5 nights here with 2 children (17 and 13) and will definitely return if we ever stay in Tuscany again. Thanks Cristina!
