Cottage holiday rentals in South Italy

We loved our stay in this beach house by the sea. Allesandro had made it very comfortable and provided so many extra treats. It was so quiet, relaxing and calm with great restaurants nearby and many beautiful places to visit.

The place was very tranquil and serene. You need a car to get around. There are a number of places to visit once you have a car. Insect repellent recommended in the evenings. Nino was very welcoming and helpful with our queries throughout our stay.

This was the perfect base for my young family of four- close enough to drive into Ostuni, Cisternino, and all of Puglia's small towns but also in a private location of its own, far away from the tourist crowds. We were able to join the fray but also detach at the end of the day and enjoy quiet afternoons and evenings at Marilla's beautiful place. Maria was very responsive and helped me with little extras that made our stay smoother and more enjoyable. It was like having a local contact, thank you very much!

Wonderful place, in the middle of the olive groves, we enjoyed the beautiful view and the nice garden every day, where our dog could roam freely. Absolutely recommended, with the note that the access road is poor and very steep, so you do have to dare to drive a bit.

We had a lovely stay at Manuela's. She is a very welcoming person who receives in her peaceful and charming place. The place is representative of what an Airbnb rental should be, i.e. welcome, small touches that facilitate arrival, daily presence and personalized, authentic home. Manuella communicates very well in French: constructive exchanges. Always good advice, Manuela also knows how to be discreet in this accommodation where the houses are glued and share common spaces. The location is ideal for visiting Matera and the coast near Bari by car. We 100% recommend Manuela

If we could give Gina, Viki and Noa 10 stars we would! Absolutely amazing place to stay for our honeymoon. The host were quick to respond to any queries we had, left us with a few welcome gifts in the fridge and Gina was there to meet us on check in. We’d never experienced this level of hospitality before in an Airbnb and we cannot thank you enough. Cavtat is such a beautiful place and we highly recommend anyone to stay at the cottage. We’re already planning our next visit and will look forward to seeing the very friendly cats who we fed everyday. The hot tub was a massive bonus and just what you need after a busy day of exploring. Thank you, Gary, Claire and Jess.

Our host Caroline welcomed us, and made sure we were able to get to the destinations we booked. She always responded quickly to us. We would recommend to all our friends.

Just perfect. There were so many small thoughtful details of equipment that made our stay feel like we’re staying at a real home rather than an half empty Airbnb. The photos looked already promising but we were shocked that the house looks even better in real life! The cars didn’t bother us much, as you can just close the doors if you want complete silence.

Beautiful stay - perfect for a couple of days for relaxation. Close proximity to both Cefalu and Palermo

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful 5 night stay at the beautifully appointed and well located home. We went to the stunning natural pool at the bottom of the street at least once every day and if you love to swim and the sea it's heavenly. Nearby Tricase is an interesting town with good supermarkets, restaurants and shops. We went to Etimo spa about 5 minutes from the home and can highly recommend that place. Maria Teresa's home is very private and has a very large yard and garden surrounding it. We cooked half the meals at home and found everything we needed including a great coffee machine. She is the perfect host and responds quickly to any questions or concerns. I'd recommend spending at least three nights here but we wish we had a month to stay!

A dream in the country side. It was everything we needed to relax. Our almost three year old son also loved exploring Marion’s little paradise

Le Fratte is a wonderful site with lots of plants and this house a gem! Bigger, more beautiful and cozy than on the pictures we spend here some wonderful days and didn't mind some of them to be rainy at all, as one could still sit on the huge covered terrace and enjoy the view. The beaches right in front of the site are beautiful, but require at least some basic fitness to get down to and up from. There's a big beach next to the porto touristico not far away that should be easily accessible for everyone though. The Ristorante in the village, Le Pagoda, was still opened in late October, which we almost didn't expect, so in case you don't want to use the kitchen (which has all the basics and much more so you're ready to cook) once in a while, there's a surprisingly good option to eat out (try the swordfish carpaccio) just a 5 minute walk away. 10/10 would definitely go back again.

it was a beautiful location with an amazing view. Very nice to stay several days.

The Thinkers House is a dream house by the sea. The breathtaking view from the veranda and from the rooms actually cannot be surpassed. But then you enter the roof terrace and it takes your breath away: during the day the deep blue of the sea and at night an infinite starry sky. Marko is a very friendly and helpful host who has beautifully designed and furnished his house. We would love to come back.

Amazing place to stay, hosts were lovely and gave you space to enjoy the villa, maintained the pool very well and made sure the whole space was clean, Amazing views if your looking for a chilled place to relax, restaurants wasn’t too far about 30 mins drive

House and surroundings were actually nicer than the description: very quiet, beautiful area with stone wall, olive trees etc. Pleasantly quiet. A little cat greeted us every morning for breakfast. City within walking distance - but takes at least 30 minutes.

Absolutely stunning location and amazingly helpful and generous hosts. The place was extremely clean and had wonderful views!

The cottage fit 6 of us comfortably! Roberto and Alessio were responsive and gave excellent suggestions for places to visit/eat. We were spoiled being on the doorstep of the nature preserve and visited a few times during our stay. Recommend without reservation.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this fabulous vineyard located on o e of the prettiest lakes I have ever been to and I have travelled lots ! Nemenja was very helpful and kind , and I loved that it was totally family run and it shows how proud the whole family are of what they have built and so they should be! The wine was divine ! Perfect stay in every way. Virpazar is a must to visit , much more peaceful than Kotor , the lake was beautiful , the highlight of our trip was the boat trip we booked on our first morning , going through giant lily pad fields and reeds .. just breathtaking .

Gorgeous little place with an absolutely stunning view, we loved our time here.

We loved our stay at Mariangela’s cozy cottage! It was a peaceful escape after our busy time in Rome! The Beach and local grocery store were within walking distance. Mariangela was an amazing host, she responded quickly to my questions and even gave us some fresh eggs in the morning 🥰 I would absolutely recommend her place when visiting Italy

Very clean, tidy house with great views and attractions in the direction of Palinuro equally beautiful. The area is very quiet, the host was very helpful and welcoming, great experience, highly recommended for those looking for tranquility a few minutes from the sea.

A wonderful, stylish cozy and original temporary home! The tranquility, the wonderful view of the sea and a fantastic environment create an unrestricted holiday happiness. Grazie mille e spero di vederti presto!

Incredible place! Staying with Franco was absolutely amazing – a real oasis of peace in the middle of nature. In the morning, we were awakened by a beautiful view of the sunrise over the sea, surrounded by silence, greenery and absolute peace. Franco was a very helpful and accommodating host, he immediately responded to all my questions and he was able to meet some of my specific conditions without any problems. You could tell that he really cared about making the guest feel good. The place is perfect for relaxation - clean, stylish and yet authentic. For me TOP TOP TOP! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for peace, beauty and a great host. 🌿☀️🌊
