Earth house holiday rentals in Francavilla al Mare

Taviano is in the center of Salento and this makes it great for visiting all the beautiful beaches and towns in the area. The trullo is perfect: very clean, comfortable in all its parts and furnished with Provencal/shabby taste. The garden furnished with comfortable armchairs, table, chairs, fireplace, swing, and pleasantly lit, makes evenings relaxing and fun. One of the town's supermarkets sells meat and meat preparations ideal for the grill. For "lazy" evenings, the bakery prepares exceptional pizzas, or the supermarket offers an inexpensive and wonderful deli department. In the rooms, the mattresses are very comfortable: no back pain and deep rest. We spent 15 days as a family with two children: it was the most relaxing vacation we can remember! Everything was perfect!

The apartment is beautiful, the neighborhood quiet, parking easy and Castellana is ideal for staying, not far from the very touristy towns of the surroundings.

Davor and Christine are wonderful hosts. They made us feel at home, like family friends. Davor has a profound knowledge of the island, its history, the most pleasant places and provided us with many useful tips, he also lent me a book so I could get better information. He is also an excellent chef and the cuisine is truly exquisite. Simple, healthy and zero km ingredients! Christine bakes delicious bread herself and cooks delicious cakes. A particular commendation to Bičevo, a small island but truly full of wonderful ravines. And also Salbunara, a small paradise nestled among the rocks. A bay with crystal clear water and myriads of fish. The cottages are all well placed in the middle of nature, with attention to every detail and equipped with everything you need. The right place to stay connected, in the presence and savor what nature offers us and which we too often forget about. Highly recommended!

We had a dream stay in Silvija's house. It's exceptional to have the opportunity to stay in such a place, a beachside house in an accessible cove that by boat with a beautiful sea... the cove is not deserted because it is home to a great restaurant that welcomes a lot of people during the day. But it's quiet and absolutely magical in the morning and evening. Silvija is very nice and available. She accompanied us to the house, going up with us in the taxi boat she had booked. She also helped us a lot to find the right ferry and boat we rented. Provide refueling for the duration of your stay or take into account that with a rental boat that is not very powerful, it takes 45 min to get to Bol to do the shopping.

Very beautiful place and an unique experience. Was not easy to find at first, but we love the location as it allows us to explore the both sides of the costs and provides tranquility and privacy. Its truely a lovely trullo, we had enjoyed our stay and only regret couldn't spent more time in it.

Exceptional place in the heart of the mountains, where it is possible to take long walks. The owner has shown himself to be exquisite and helpful.

Absolutely magnificent surroundings & that local feel . Highly recommend this place . Had a wonderful time

This property must have one of the best views on Ischia. It’s also beautifully decorated and has an excellent outdoor space - we spent hours just sitting on the terrace reading books and taking it all in. It has a few quirks, as you would expect of somewhere of this age, but overall it’s an amazing place to stay. Please don’t underestimate the road up the hill - it’s extremely steep and narrow, and then there is a path to the house which has something like 150 steps! Valerie was brilliant and emphasised all of this to us in advance, but I was still surprised. I also need to mention how great Valerie and her family were, as we were staying during the grape harvest. Our holiday memories are most definitely enhanced considerably because of their hospitality. Can’t wait to go back next year.

Lovely place, spacious and well designed. Beautiful terrace. The only downside for some could be a considerable climb up the hill, which we didn’t mind that much. Would definitely stay here again.

I had a wonderful stay at Mare’s charming townhome in the heart of Dubrovnik’s Old Town. The location couldn’t have been better—tucked away in a quaint, quiet corner but just steps from all the historic sites, restaurants, and vibrant local life. The home itself was cozy, clean, and full of character—perfect for soaking in the atmosphere of this beautiful city. Mare was a truly exceptional host—attentive, responsive, and incredibly helpful throughout my stay. She went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed, including arranging for porter service, which is a must-avail service. You can tell she really cares about making sure her guests have a great experience. I’d absolutely recommend staying here to anyone visiting Dubrovnik. Thanks again, Mare!

We highly recommend this unique and peaceful home. Matera is beautiful but crowded, and when we visited, quite hot. What a joy to come back after a long day to the cool quiet of Tiziana’s little stone home. Tiziana was very easy to communicate with, and check-in and check-out, performed by Tiziana’s kind and helpful parents, was pleasant, personal, and informative. Groceries nearby and restaurants and shops plentiful but be prepared to walk stairs. That’s part of the fun and uniqueness of Matera. Thank you for a marvelous stay Tiziana and family!

5 stars - Beautiful Trullo and great host. We had a fantastic time in Trullo Dorado. It is a beautiful Trullo tastefully decorated and homely inside with very pretty gardens and a lovely pool. Vito and Guiliano were amazing, very welcoming and helped to book a surprise wine tasting for my parents 30th wedding anniversary which was a highlight of our trip. They also offer different experiences such as a piazza night where you can make your own pizza which I highly recommend! The location is great for trips into Alberobello(5 mins by car) and travelling further afield around Puglia’s many beautiful towns. A perfect holiday for the 3 of us and hope to return soon. We would definitely recommend.

Staying at Sanja and Lucas was amazing. Sanja checked us in and was an incredible host - she was proactive, provided local recommendations to help us explore Hvar and were very flexible. The home itself was truly beautiful and had stunning views. The garden as well provided so much privacy. Would love to come back and stay again!
