Family-friendly vacation rentals in Calabria

Comfortable, well-equipped room in an exceptional and charming place. Mario is a pleasant and responsive host. I would recommend it 100%

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.

Great stay in Parghelia in August. Two-room apartment in the very nice villa. View from the window of the beautiful room...directly on the sea and on Tropea. Even more evocative to enjoy the wonderful sunsets directly on the deck chairs located in the villa's park. Everything is clean and in order of our arrival with the host who is always present and available. Pro active and responsive Mrs. Ivana did not miss anything. A plus for your friendliness. Well-equipped and functional apartment. Wonderful natural ventilation of the same. Air conditioning not used. Great for beach vacation with family. Location close to Michelino and Vardano beaches,…about 10 minutes walk. Parghelia's country even closer. Trope 5 minutes by car. Strategic location really. Congratulations. Great stay.

Very beautiful place, I would definitely go back, my wife and kids loved it. Everyone is super friendly. Tip: Stair master to prepare for the hike down the 200 plus steps to get to the beautiful beach and back up when you’re done (which we did and made a huge difference).

Wonderful place that was extremely clean and well maintained. everything was exactly as it was in in the ad. Settimia is a very gracious and helpful host. I would highly recommend her unit.

Had two nice nights! Great ocean view, close to the sea ( a bit tricky to get to the beach if you have small children though) But the pool at the building was great, and Danilo was a great host. Thank you! :)

We liked Gabriele's apartment very much. Clean, spacious, terrace overlooking the sea. The apartment is located in a vacation home area and at the beginning of May there is nothing going on, no neighbors, no restaurants, no beach cafes. Also in the area, a lot is still closed, only in Tropea or Pizzo are there more people. If you want some life, you should drive a little later.

The house is very welcoming and for those who like tranquility it is ideal, it was possible to take an excursion on the Sila, which I recommend. I thank Arcangelo and his family very much for the beautiful welcome. I will definitely be back.

Beautiful home near the historic center. We will keep a great memory. Pascale and Daniel

We were guests of Prof. Filomena in the blooming spring. His house is surrounded by a small fenced park where tall poplars and fruit trees coexist. Magnificent sunny days accompanied us to discover the Park and a warm fireplace welcomed us on our return, together with the delicacies that our host had left us in the purest spirit of hospitality. The atmosphere is magical! Our dog Cora was enchanted, enjoyed the treats left for her and had a great time in a safe, protected environment! The home is perfectly equipped for both short and long stays. Very clean and super cozy. The location is enviable in every respect and Filomena's knowledge of the area made us enjoy the little time we had planned to the fullest, but we have already booked for the return trip for a longer stay. Filomena really offered us an enchanted world full of affection! Thanks and talk to you soon!

A perfect base to explore all areas of Paris from. Would happily stay here for a longer trip as well. A wonderful apartment with a great vibe.

Lovely house in olive grove. Beautiful view. Well equipped kitchen. Gioditta was a great host, responded quickly and picked us up after we left wrong. Follow the instruction with the road. You can't use Google Maps if you're coming from the south. Nice walk to village. We got to look at the olive harvest. I would recommend the place if you need peace and quiet.

Antonella is a great host. As my wife and I arrived in Civita, Antonella was waiting for us in the main square and, after we met, brought us to her place (we drove there following her car, don’t trust Google Maps). The room we stayed in is very spacious, and the balcony has table and chairs, from where I really enjoyed morning sunbathing while contemplating the amazing landscape. You can see, the whole village, the rocky cliff (timpa del diavolo), the Raganello gorge and the sea. Breakfast is served in a cozy room with one single table in the centre, so all b&b guests are sitting together and every morning I had some really nice conversations with other travellers. Antonella prepares breakfast with locally sourced ingredients, one day we were even served fresh ricotta cheese made by a local shepherd, so delicious!

We had a great time at Civita. The apartment has everything you need for a few days. Great bed, great bathroom and to sit ouside under the olive trees is simply one of the great delights in life. I would say it is easiest to have your own car to get around. We strolled through the village, drove to the beach and up into the mountains, ate some great food and just enjoyed ourselves. Very relaxing. Communication went smooth as well. Ticks all the boxes

A great apartment in the middle of the old town of Pizzo, therefore only within walking distance. But a very quiet location and a great terrace. It had everything you needed. We were received and said goodbye in a very friendly manner. In addition, Francesco, who was always available, gave us great tips for places, whether for ice cream, aperitivo, pizza, pasta or fish. Thank you, it was perfect!

The view from the balcony was wonderful! The pictures of this apartment don’t do it justice. The balcony was big enough for two to enjoy coffee or wine. Really felt like a local but had enough restaurants around. Everything was walkable up and down hill. The apartment was not so big, but very comfortable for two. Can’t say much about how the kitchen worked, because who wants to cook when so much Italian food is at your doorstep? However, we were there the day many things closed down at the beginning of November. Still, we found good places to eat. Would recommend this apartment.

Annelis house is close to the beach and offers a marvelous view over the sea. Anneli is great and generous, she allowed as a really late checkout. Communication with her was absolutely easy and she always answered very fast. Since she wasn't around we were taken care of by Loraine who is lovely and who gave us a lot of useful informations. The house itself is enough big for a family with 4kids, the beds a comfortable and the kitchen offers everything you need. Off-season you have to drive a little bit to the next supermarket since there are not many people in the area, but on the other hand we were almost alone at the beach and that was worth it. We loved to be there and are hoping to come again soon.

Francesco is a great host. Present and thoughtful. The villa is simply a charm. Cleanliness, location, decor... everything exceptional! The view is also the distinctive element with wonderful views of the calanques and the Ionian that morning and evening awaits you just to be seen in the silence and peace that this place knows how to transmit to the end. The beautiful, panoramic pool immersed in a well-kept garden in every detail is a plus for those with children even if the Calabrian sea is in itself a natural pool and it is impossible to resist its wild beaches bathed by an unparalleled sea. Thank you Francesco. It will be a pleasure to be your guests again.

Great Family Family Family Living My group of friends and I loved the place offered by Mike and Nerissa. The cottage has all the necessary comforts for short and long-term stays. The highlights of the property are definitely the sea view, the outdoor garden for outdoor meals, and the proximity to the free beach. Highly recommended!!!

We were guests of Mr. Francesco alla Formaggera for a week. La Formaggera is located in a unique place for the landscape that surrounds it and a little enchanted by the saturated atmosphere of history that you can breathe in it. The house is simple, but delightfully furnished; the kitchen is well organized and equipped with everything you need and you can have lunch and dinner outside, cool. Far from the chaos, you can rest in the shade of the pines, surrounded by prickly pears and Calabra nature. The beautiful pool and its covered patio, much appreciated on warm days, are certainly a strong point. The sea is close and in the nearest town there are supermarkets and many other shops including the excellent Lagani dairy and the nearby pastry shop. The village of Badolato, a few kilometers away, is worth visiting.

Serena’s place is really magnificent and special. The welcoming was great, Serena even helped us take our luggage uphill in her car. The medieval village lies in a beautiful, peaceful unadulterated nature and the apartment is a testimony of the couple’s art and travels, very charming. It perfectly equipped and has a beautiful terrace with a view. We would recommend to all nature lovers and those who are fond of creative places.

Highly recommended for people who expect privacy. It’s a modest but Clean and comfortable apartment. All things in descrption were found inside although it takes a bit time to guess for example how to turn on THE washing machine ,THE oven or warm Water. Instructions from Valentina are however clean. You can chill outside with beautiful view of perfectly maintained garden and sea view . THE biggest plus is also Access to beautiful pool, water is clean and its pretty big, circa 18 metres of length. Valentina is very caring person and despite not being present in Calabria , she gives all details about check in, house rules , places to visit, where to eat or buy local cheese. That was very helpful for us and I’m sure without her tips we would be unaware of many things around.

Antonello and his companion were very friendly hosts. We could always ask them for help and tipps. The pool and the view is wonderful!

Fulvia was very sweet and helpful. We could just ask her anything, and if there was anything we needed, she would take care of it. The house is very beautiful, but the kitchen equipment is a little sparse. Fulvia, however, helped us with what we asked for.
