Whether you know it for its fashion, its food, its wine or its laid-back, Vespa-riding people, chances are you love Italy. It's hard not to. Italy has beautiful beaches and rugged mountains, chic cities and charming countryside, unique historical sites and modern architecture. It has the romance of Venice and the mystery of Pompeii, the passion of Sicily and the tranquillity of Tuscany. One of Europe's most varied countries, Italy indeed offers something for every traveller.
All that variety is fantastic, but it can make it hard to choose a holiday villa or apartment in Italy.
Rome is a logical first stop for many visitors to Italy. The apartments available for let here in the capital are within walking distance of icons like the Colosseum, the Sistine Chapel or the Spanish Steps. You'll also have easy access to Rome's great restaurants and nightlife.
For stunning landscapes and some of the best food and wine in Italy, an apartment or villa in a rural region like Tuscany, Umbria or Puglia is ideal. If you'd like to be in centre of a busy Italian town, we offer cosy apartments located in the heart of Pisa, Pascoso, Gargano or Leece. If you'd rather have a quiet escape away from it all, try renting one of our historic villas; some overlook Trasimeno Lake while others are nestled amongst the vineyards of Tuscany.
If you're looking for a holiday by the shore, you'll have plenty to choose from in Italy.
