Vacation rentals with a pool in Italy

Very clean and modern accommodation with a sensational view over the beautiful Calabrian surroundings. Daniela and Pietro are charming hosts and easy to reach for any questions. Upon arrival, a delicious apple pie and a good wine were already waiting for us, and honey, jam, cereals and fresh eggs from the chicken coop were waiting for our first breakfast. The fruit that grows around the house is delicious and definitely worth trying. The peace and quiet in the mountains is priceless, and it's wonderful to read a book in the shade of the olive trees. Badolato is just a quick drive away, or you can treat yourself to a walk through the beautiful vegetation and steep terraces. The crystal-clear pool water will give you the necessary kick of freshness during warm days. We love that place and extended our stay because we already felt home after seconds. Thank you for your hospitality!

We had a truly wonderful stay at Marco’s Villa. The house has excellent accommodation and is extremely well appointed. Situated within a few minutes drive of central Balestrate and all the amenities it has to offer (supermarket, butchery, pharmacy, restaurants), it is an ideal location with easy access to all the key tourist spots. We thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor living element of the property, making use of the swimming pool, hot tub, bbq and pizza oven with al fresco dining and relaxing. Giuseppa was a superb host; very welcoming, charming and helpful. We can highly recommend Marco’s property.

We had a great stay. Francesco who welcomed us gave lots of useful recommendations and was always on hand to help. The villa was as described. We loved the outhouse next to the pool and hot tub and enjoyed playing pool and cooking there. Our only downside was that there is no where to walk to nearby although this was warned of with a car being advised as essential. The beaches are 30-40 minute car journey away. We visited scala dei turchi, licata, valley of temples and Cefalu with Cefalu being a longer day trip (1.5 hours each way) but worth it. Thank you, we will back to Sicily I am sure!

Amazing and restful place. Beautiful garden, terrace. Stunning pool and private beach. The house is spacy and has all amenities. Roberto is a wonderful host, his welcoming was so warm. He was always responsive and recommended us very good places to enjoy ! Thank you again !

What a wonderful break at Villa Grandi Fiori! Regardless the unstable weather we were able to swim everyday, the pool had a perfect temperature! I love how the garden was in full spring, giving us a beautiful view and privacy. Everything was perfect in the house: a fully equipped kitchen where we were able to cook a lot, spacious and tidy rooms, and heating for the chilly mornings. The town of Oria is really something else! Perfect location to explore the whole of Puglia. Highly recommended! We will definitely be back next year! 🌸🌞🏊‍♀️

The accommodation is very nice, with a beautiful pool and close to the coast and beaches by car. Gian Luca was very responsive, I would recommend!

We had a lovely holiday. The pools are fantastically beautiful. However, we have to say quite honestly if we hadn't been there with friends who lived in the villa, some of it would have been a bit difficult. The seating in front of the pool house is available but very hot until the evening. Kitchen is available with everything you need but with a very very small work surface that makes it very difficult to cook. But that was no problem for us as we spent most of the time at the villa. We had chosen these cottages because the description said there is the villa and the pool house, but the pool house is a semi-detached house that is also inhabited. There are other cottages on the premises and there is a kiosk and another pool(which is fantastic), but day guests also come to the property. It's all just a heads up. We had a great stay despite everything.

This is a luxury gem hidden away in a tranquil location. The only minus off season was that most restaurants <30 minutes away were closed (October) otherwise this place is magic, clean, newly refurbished, has all necessary amenities, incredibly private and has excellent hosts and goat farmer neighbors ;)

Lovely place to which every day it was great to come back, close to the town and train station. Very nice hosts, ready to help with any situation with a high level of communication. Definitely worth recommending.

The apartment was very nice and 5 minutes' walk from the beach. Everything was exactly as described, no surprises awaited us. Communication with Christina was always perfect. We also particularly liked the lockable garage parking space. We highly recommend the apartment!

Very clean and qualitative accommodation, located with a magnificent view, a little difficult to access but it's worth it! I'm happy to go back 🙂

I recommend this place. The views are stunning, and the apartment is spacious, comfortable, and decently equipped. It's quiet, like a gated community, with lovely gardens and a good selection of mostly Italian books. The bed and pillows were great, and the internet was decent. The pool and lake are both refreshing—just get in and you’ll warm up. Restaurants nearby were excellent, especially Vapore for the view. There’s also a lakeside bar that looked great, though I didn’t try it. Paola was helpful and responsive. Note: the apartment could use a full-length mirror, hairdryer, and ironing facilities (Paola, if I'm wrong please correct me). There’s no grocery store within safe walking distance, so stock up beforehand. Access to the car park and transporting luggage is tricky due to steep paths, but a funicular may help soon. Como is a pleasant nearby city. Driving can be tight and twisty—go slow and don’t let locals rush you. It's all part of the area's charm. I hope to return.

Elena is a very pleasant Host. She is super helpful and friendly. He also recommended where to dine and showed us a bit of the strategic points of the area. The home is fully stocked. Elena even offers intimate towels for women. In the morning we also received warm and fresh croissants, and we had everything available for breakfast. The view from the apartment is spectacular and when we went we didn't even pass too many cars that bump the atmosphere. Unfortunately, we did not use the pool because it is still a maintenance period, but we saw it and it is very nice. The garage is spacious and close to the apartment. Included in the spaces there is a very large terrace, cozy and equipped with loungers, shade or sun, preferably, barbecue and table with chairs. Really beautiful stay!! The only downside, not for us, if you don't like long walks, in the surroundings, you can't walk to the places as a first necessity

Very nice house, free parking. I think it is a lovely accommodation during the summer with the garden. We stayed at the end of October and the place was a little damp. Overall everything was good.

Andrea was very responsive all the time. Andrea’s place is beautiful. Very modern and clean and had everything my wife and I needed including an iron, washing machine, and a cool sound system. The kitchen was fully functional as well. The views from the balcony and bedroom are amazing. Just as shown in the pictures. Andrea had many suggestions of things to do and places where to eat that were quite helpful. Our stay was very enjoyable. This place is truly a gem in Lago di Como.

The location is both quiet and close to tourist attractions. Beautiful lake view. Going down to the main street, you will find Lake Como, restaurants and boat and ferry boat stops to get to Bellagio, Varena and other tourist spots. Full kitchen if you want to prepare meals at home. Mario is a super kind person and really likes what he does. He gave us recommendations on local attractions and other tips. I recommend it to everyone. Thank you for everything, Mario!

We had a wonderful stay at this home surrounded by nature. The house is beautiful, cared for in every detail and clean. The hosts were incredibly kind and always available for our every need. Especially Mrs. Ina who took the trouble every day to ask us how we were and how our stay was going, also advising us what to see and some restaurants. An ideal place for those seeking relaxation and tranquility, with the comfort of a home kept really well. We will definitely be back!

This 500 year old house is ideally situated in Tuscany and the Chianti region. It is a perfect place for day trips to other towns, for wine, tasting excursions, and for visiting Florence. The idyllic setting gives you a sense of country life in Italy, and the views from the patio and house are stunning. There are spectacular wineries within 5 to 10 minutes of the house. We found the house very comfortable and enjoyed our stay very very much. Rose and Pier couldn’t have been more helpful in planning our stay and excursions. We found through them fabulous restaurants, and wineries that we would not have discovered on our own. They were also incredibly responsive when we had questions. Our only confusion about the house was that the listing showed three bathrooms, but one was in the laundry room in a separate building . Just something to know. Thank you to Rose for a lovely vacation ! It was the perfect place to explore Tuscany from!

We (7 girlfriends) enjoyed the stay in the villa very much! The house, especially the front yard and pool, are wonderful. Maria is great! She has sent us a lot of tips about the area (also the necessary things, such as shopping). In addition, we were surprised with a very fine cake and if you needed anything, there was a very quick response. The villa is well equipped and the surroundings beautiful. There is plenty of parking. Only the potholes and the access to the villa are a bit challenging - but doable!

Extraordinary house, extremely tasteful rooms with an own bathroom each. The best was the lovely housekeeper Lucia, who was always there to help.

A beautiful place to explore wider Puglia from. Great host. Would return. Situated just north of Porto Cesareo. Car essential with parking space inside secure perimeter walls. Most sights were 45-90 minute drive. Modern, clean with comfortable furnishings and beds. Well equipped kitchen. Self-catered: 20 mins to nearest Lidl. Short drive to reach restaurants (10 minutes). End of October still warm and sunny in daytime (shorts, t-shirt and slides). Able to swim in small pool (very refreshing though ☺️) and in the sea at nearby beach (5 mins walk: sandy and shallow). Arrived after a severe rain so suffered more with mosquitoes outside which stopped us sitting out in the evenings sadly. Solar-powered hot water very limited (max 2 very short showers). No hot water from kitchen tap. Immersion heater did not seem to get temperature past tepid even after a couple of hours. Would be less of an issue in high summer. Out of season largely was silent around (beach club noise one evening).

Elodies villa was exactly as described and perfect for a family holiday. The seperate buildings enabled everyone some privacy and outdoor living area by the pool both functional and flexible. The hosts were very responsive and responded almost instantly to any question. We took the recommendation to bring in Massimo Mancarella as our personal chef for our final farewell dinner and he is an amazing chef, preparing our best meal of our trip. Such a nice way to end our Puglia holiday dining outdoors together being treated with an amazing meal and service.

The house looks good like on a picture. When we checked in , it was not cleaned up after previous guests, bus Susanne was responsive and organize quickly a cleaning lady and refund us cleaning fee . I’m satisfy with a stay. The only minus that you can’t park right in front of the house, might be uncomfortable if you carrying heavy things. I would definitely recommend this place to stay.

We had an amazing stay at Juri's beautiful villa in Tuscany! The place is super spacious, easily accommodating our group of 11, and it was spotless and very well maintained. Juri and his mom were incredible hosts—always responsive and ready to help whenever we needed anything. The location is also perfect for day trips to Florence, Pisa, and Lucca. If you're looking for a charming, well-kept and very clean villa with top-notch hospitality, this is the place. Highly recommend! Let me know if you'd like any tweaks!
