Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Santa Maria

Franco is great and friendly. 100% helpful. Good beds. The accommodation is close to the beach. Although we were here out of season, we experienced a lot and enjoyed the town and its surroundings.

Magnificent view over the Castello Ruffo, harbour and Chianalea fisherman's village with perfect terrace outlook. Situated halfway between great swimming beach and upper town where the locals tended to congregate in the less touristed bars. Only pedestrian access to accommodation and host could improve navigation instructions. Good kitchen for catering and comfortable bed. Lack of air conditioning was not an issue as house stayed cool. Slightly disappointed in lack of cooking oil in an otherwise well stocked pad. Loved eating with the surreal view from the balcony.

Our stay at Casa Colonica was like a dream! Nestled at the foot of Gerace, the views of the Ionian coast were simply magical. The house and pool were immaculately maintained and spotless. It's possibly the most remarkable place to stay in Calabria with children — peaceful, spacious and giving you an elequent country feeling but very close by car to both Locri and Gerace for anything you need. Mariagrazia and Vincenzo were warm, welcoming hosts. We would absolutely love to return!

A perfect little villa in a truly enchanting setting! The house is located within a beautiful residence, with attention to the smallest details, quiet and very safe. The accommodation is clean, spacious and equipped with everything you need, parking in front of the house for a comfortable stay. Well-maintained green areas and common services. The villa is equipped with all the garden equipment, deckchairs, chairs, and tables where you can also comfortably eat or have a good coffee, surrounded by greenery. Convenient location to reach the sea and the main attractions of the area. Owners (David and Katrin) are kind and helpful. Absolutely recommended!

The perfect location to be close to Tropea but also have privacy and peace. Luisa was very kind and was always available to answer our questions. The appartment was very clean and had everything we needed, the parking space was also very appreciated. Highly recommend staying here if you want to be in a peaceful space while also being close to the beaches.

We had the best stay at Bruno’s place! It offers everything you need, plus it is very clean and pretty. There is a wonderful garden and a beautiful terrace. The location in Drapia up on the mountain is suitable for people who like it calm and enjoy the slow living lifestyle for vacation. Bruno and his wife are definitely the nicest hosts we ever got to know and we are so happy we decided to stay with them! Bruno offers help wherever he can and has perfect knowledge of what the area has to offer. All in all a perfect vacation we will not forget! We‘ll definitely come back :)

Beautiful views of the bay and cliffs! Easy communication with Salvatore who welcomes you at the property and provides a full guide with places to eat and things to do in the area. The property is in a quiet area not far from everything you need. We choose to spend our 2 night stay taking the short walk to the private residential beach and enjoying the day/night views from every corner of the house! An unforgettable stay and would definitely go back! Thank you for sharing your lovely place Salvatore.

Terrific place, very helpful host… will be back. Thank you Maria!

Very nice place,easy accessible all the places by car.Same price you would pay in Tropea or Scilla to a much smaller place.very glad we choose this place.

Lovely apartment, with everything you need for a perfect stay. Great location, quite, with a great view of the ocean but close enough to walk onto Tropea town & to the beach. Highly recommended 😊

The place was incredible, it was charming and cozy apartment in Tropea. Giulia was always helpful and proactive, I definitely will return to her apartment in the future.

Super Amazing view, close to town in 10min, Marcello is very kind. Best villa in Tropea ever!

Mimmos Airbnb is an experience and definitely the apartment with the best view of Scilla. The communication with Mimmo was perfect, and he provided us with milk, cereal and more for breakfast which was really kind! Everything was super clean and the apartment is just a short walk from the city! Would stay here again for sure!

The flat is lovely and has everything one might need. It is just a short walk away from the beach/sea, center of town and supermarket. Francesco was a lovely host, very accommodating and gave us great recommendations- would highly recommend il convivio! Would definitely stay there again!

We really enjoyed our stay in this apartment! It’s very well equipped and has everything you may need during your holiday. The location is great and really close to all the restaurants, cafes and there is a lovely market right outside the building. The balcony view is unmatched. Overall great experience and we will definitely return!

The photo’s don’t do any justice as to how beautiful this place is. I’ve stayed in many places over the years and this is my favourite spot, easily. The views from the house are incredible. The home itself had everything you need and more. If you are wondering if you should stay here, you absolutely should. Many places are just in walking distance, coffee, restaurants etc My only regret is that we couldn’t stay longer and that we did have some sort of our own transportation. The host gladly picked us up from the train station, gave us a number of recommendations and was overall a wonderful host. Just beautiful! I would stay here again and again.

Alba was the perfect host and looked after us so very well. Of note: the Calabrian eggs for breakfast were delicious. The balcony area was the perfect place to relax and enjoy watching the ocean life of Scilla.

The apartment is finished in every detail. There is an air conditioner for the living area and one for the sleeping area. The fixtures are excellent and create perfect soundproofing. There are mosquito nets, a washing machine, a clothesline, and a terrace that overlooks the sea, making you fall in love. The kitchen has everything you need, in fact we cooked lunch and dinner for the whole week we stayed. Perfection does not exist, but this Airbnb needs an excellence that we have never encountered to lose the right to be considered perfect. We felt at home in contact with the sea that we love so much.

Would stay here again... Francesca is extremely responsive and helpful. She answered all of our questions and guided us regarding the area. She went above and beyond. Even having someone help us with our luggage up to the room. The location is very convenient and just a minutes walk from the main street. Great experience!!

The location of the apartment was wonderfully centrally located - right in the heart of Pizzo. We were in town over the Easter holidays and were thus able to follow the processions - even from the balcony of the apartment. Pizzo is a very nice place with great Italian flair and likeable inhabitants. The beach is also beautiful. The view of the sea is magnificent and everything was available. The kitchen is a separate space which is very practical. Once we had a problem with the window, Stefania was there right away. As compensation, she left us delicious pasticcini. She responded to our questions right away and was very helpful to us. At the beginning, she reserved a parking space for us. Thank you for the wonderful time in Pizzo.

The apartment was in a beautiful, quiet area with a magnificent sunset that you can watch. Mary was wonderful and helpful!

We had a fantastic stay at Magdalena’s place. The location was perfect for my mum who can not walk so far . Anytime we contacted Magdalena she responded instantly and was really friendly . Loved the place and felt it was excellent value for money. Definitely will be back .

We had a very nice stay. The accommodation was great as well as the view. We enjoyed spending time in the apartment and in the area. Everything was very well furnished and everything you need was available. We will be happy to come back.

Honestly a great stay. Everyone was so helpful with the check in instructions and the place was walking distance from the train station which was so nice. The apartment was clean and beautiful! Lots of hot water, a large living room and two great balconies. We honestly wish we could have stayed longer. Yes the beach ACTUALLY is a 10 minute walk from the place, unlike many adds saying it’s close. There’s no need for a taxi or anything. The beaches themselves were also beautiful. All in all a great place to stay. Lovely hosts. And a beautiful beach.
