Housed in a residential building, this sleek room offers a convenient hotel alternative for solo travellers or couples, equipped with everything needed for a fuss-free stay. Location-wise, you're in the heart of Sorrento, just a short walk from the beach. You'll also be within easy reach of the port, with restaurants and bars on your doorstep – handy, as this pad doesn't come with a kitchen. The interiors are a little basic for our liking, but it's modern and there's a dedicated workspace. Plus, the freestanding tub is the perfect place to relax after busy days spent travelling.

This unique home offers an unparalleled escape to a private island in Tuscany, where the sea sparkles and time slows. Once a lighthouse, it's been beautifully restored, blending historic character with effortless luxury. You’ll step into a bright living room with cosy seating, a library of lighthouse tales, and a spiral staircase leading to the terrace. Here, the en-suite bedrooms open onto a private space with parasols and loungers. The on-site chef curates every meal with fresh local produce, allowing you to truly kick back and relax. Days are made for basking in the sun, soaking in the hot spring tub, paddleboarding, snorkelling, or quiet reflection under the stars. To reach the island, you'll need to purchase a dinghy or helicopter taxi service, but it's absolutely worth it for the seclusion, beauty, and unforgettable experience.

Fancy a taste of true Puglia living? This traditional Trulli villa located in the Itria Valley is spot-on. Despite the property's heritage, this is a surprisingly practical home. Each bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, making it well-suited for two couples sharing, and the shared hot tub leading off the apartment's private terrace is a lovely touch. Guests rave about the attention to detail here, and it's easy to see why. Expect local goodies and wine to help you settle in, and your host is always on hand if you need anything. Make sure to ask them for recommendations on the best trattorias in Locorotondo village (a fifteen-minute walk), or the nearby towns of Ostuni, Fasano, and Monopoli.

Tucked into the foothills of the Sardinian mountains, this farmhouse estate feels blissfully remote – yet the white sands of Marinella Beach are just a six-kilometre drive away. Made up of two separate homes set 50 metres apart and sharing nearly two acres of gardens, it's prime for two families holidaying together. Each house has its own kitchen, dining, and living space, giving everyone space to spill out. But when it’s time to get together, the private pool is the perfect gathering spot to soak up those distant sea and mountain views. And don’t get us started on the vistas at sunset – that’s a memory made right there.

Tucked into Sorrento's old town, this apartment offers a comfortable space for a large group or family seeking sea and modern comforts. With two kitchens and two living rooms, there are plenty of opportunities for sociable and quiet moments, though come bedtime, four guests will be sleeping on the living room sofa beds. The highlights for us? The large terrace with dining and lounging spots and the location. From here, you can spend days on Leonelli’s Beach, dine in the waterfront trattorias and explore the Piazza Tasso.

Bella Luna

This cosy loft apartment is situated right in the heart of Sorrento's historical centre. Exploring the old streets, local trattorias and historical sites couldn't be easier – Sorrento's Basilica di Sant'Antonino is just around the corner. The home is perfect for families or small groups, with a master bedroom and a second bedroom on a mezzanine level overlooking the main space (where you'll also find a sofa bed). You're only a seven-minute walk from the closest beach, but your host also provides you with complimentary access to their resort pool and restaurant around 12 km away.

Discover the Sicilian island of Pantelleria from this gorgeous villa. It has a contemporary feel with elements of a dammuso, a typical Pantelleria home, and is surrounded by two acres of fragrant Mediterranean garden. We think this home is particularly suited to families – furry friends are welcome, and your host can provide a range of equipment for little ones, including a baby bath and cot. The pool offers breathtaking sunset views, but for sunbathing by the sea Sataria Beach is just a short drive away.

Situated south of the glamorous centre of Cortina d’Ampezzo, this charming pine-clad apartment offers easy access to some of the best skiing, mountain biking and hiking terrain that Italy has to offer. But that's not all. It also happens to be one of the best resorts in the Dolomites for those who prefer their holidays a little less exhilarating – with winter walking, skating, boutique shopping and fine dining on offer.

With copious amounts of wood teamed with a traditional rustic mountain design, the apartment makes for a welcoming high-altitude escape for a family or group of friends. A cosy living and dining space contains sufficient corners for everyone to claim a spot, with the adjacent kitchen equipped for all your needs despite its compact size.

Elsewhere, three cosy bedrooms offer a hygge-inspired haven of comfy beds and untreated wood. Every possible effort has been made to use natural materials wherever possible. Perhaps the standout feature of the entire home is the stunning wooden bath – perfect for a luxuriant soak after a long day in the mountains.

If you dream of castles, breathtaking views, and beautiful interiors that are fit for a prince or princess, then this is the home for you. Perched above Lake Garda, this apartment is a wildly romantic spot – it's guaranteed to sweep you off your feet. 

The pastel colour palette creates a charming, almost whimsical feel, where you can settle into life by the lake. The checkered sofa is a lovely place to curl up with a glass of Italian red wine, while the kitchen invites you to whip up your favourite pasta dishes. Step outside onto the balcony, and you can gaze out across the water – from quick breakfasts to lavish dinners, the alfresco dining space is lovely at all times of the day. Plus, you even have access to a shared swimming pool – it doesn't get much better than this. 

Padenghe Castle, a medieval fort, is just a five-minute walk away, where you can stroll through the ruins and soak up the sense of history. The edge of the lake is just a five-minute drive away, and you can walk or cycle along the many trails nearby. And, if you're a golfer then you're in luck – two of the most popular courses are within a six-kilometre drive of the house. 

Fairytale Weekend

Come sun or snow, this charming timber retreat offers the perfect mountain getaway high in the Italian Alps. Located on the ground floor of a traditional alpine building in Livigno, the apartment is designed to be as flexible as possible, with a sleeping arrangement that's sure to suit.

Up to four people can be comfortably accommodated here, with two of the guests choosing between either a double sofa bed or two pull-down bunk beds that emerge from the wall, with two further guests in the tranquil main bedroom.

A compact kitchen contains everything you might need to whip up apres-ski sustenance sat around the dining table before exploring the traffic-free streets in the centre of the resort, a couple of kilometres up the road – with a free ski bus linking the town. Interestingly, the area has held duty-free status since the 16th century, meaning your money goes that bit further.

The area is fast establishing itself as one of the most exciting resorts in Italy and is set to host some of the 2026 Winter Olympics. Easily accessible slopes for all levels of snow sports enthusiast make Livigno a fun option for families and mixed-ability groups.

Living Livigno Loca

The Italian Alps offer charm and excitement throughout both summer and winter. While ski resorts like Livigno have enough excellent terrain to draw the snowsports crowds, a relaxing stay in lush mountain scenery wouldn’t go amiss in warmer months. In a similar way, this home allows you to experience both sides of the region.

Just a five-minute walk from the nearest ski lift, this studio apartment is more than handy for skiers and snowboarders. But as the sun beats down in the heat of July, it’s equally wonderful for picturesque bike rides (courtesy of your host). Either way, you’ll be in need of relaxation afterwards – that’s where the sauna comes in.

Beyond the wooden porch and pine interiors of this modern building, the luxe spa sits on its own floor. With beanbags and a chill-out area next to the glass door to the sauna, you’ve got plenty of space to kick back if it gets too hot. 

Two Seasons

Contemporary living meets Sicilian charm in this traditional home. Located in the historic area of Ortigia, you'll be surrounded by ancient streets contrasting this stylishly modern apartment. Decorated with warm tones reminiscent of the colours of the desert, this is an ideal home for a romantic getaway with your loved one. Start your day by flinging open the window shutters in the bedroom and enjoying cornettis and fresh orange juice in bed, and end the day by indulging in a glass of moscato wine on the romantic outdoor balcony area. This home is made by love for those who are in love.

The Ortigia area you'll be located in is just as romantic to explore considering it is steeped in history as part of Syracuse. Wander the streets on your doorstep and discover picturesque squares to while away time in, or take a short walk down to Cala Rossa beach to marvel at stunning azure waters. A picnic here will be an afternoon well spent. Make sure to sample the local granitas during your stay here – they're something special.

When you step inside this 17th–century villa, there’s a sense of being transported to another time and place. With its atmospheric presence and poetic beauty, it’s the kind of home that’s been designed for beautiful gatherings. 

Set within the charming village of Baveno, just a short drive from Milan, this is the perfect setting for friends and family to celebrate in traditional Italian style. The communal spaces feel intimate and personal – with artistic details that inspire curiosity and intrigue. 

Follow the creative spirit through the pink inner patio and into the kitchen – this is a wonderful place to cook and socialise. No doubt you’ll be inspired to take your morning coffee outside and into the gardens. With views across Lake Maggiore and the famous Borromeo Islands, it’s easy to get lost in the magic of this setting. Spend slow days by the swimming pool, reading beneath the trees and enjoying long lunches on the terrace. 

It’s only a short walk from this home onto the main boulevard of the village where you can pick up any supplies. Or wind your way around the lake, stopping in a local cafe to admire the views.

As the sun sets across the mountains, you’ll love coming together around the large dining table to raise a glass of local wine, and share the beauty of Italian living. 

The Sofia Rose

This serviced studio is ideal for a romantic break or solo trip. Next to Bogogno Golf Club and just thirty minutes from Lake Maggiore or Malpensa Airport, it’s part of a renovated Italian farmhouse with plenty of character. Think rustic stone walls and terracotta floors. The space is cleverly designed, with a screened-off kitchen and big windows that open onto your own section of terrace beneath the wisteria. You can also make use of the shared gardens. Restaurants are a short walk away, and optional extras like breakfast or even a butler service can be arranged. It’s compact and there’s no sofa, but with so much to explore nearby, we doubt you'll want to lounge about anyway.

Studio Wisteria

Looking for a tranquil escape amidst the beauty of the Italian countryside? We have the perfect place. Tinged with bright colours and exuding a sense of intimacy, this private retreat is tailored for romantic getaways.

It's hidden amongst the verdant forestry, away from the sounds of urban life and busy streets. Wake up and feel completely refreshed, ready for a relaxing day amongst the natural beauty of your surroundings.

Spend your days lazing around the garden, catching some gentle rays from the sun whilst you read a book. The shared terrace is a paradisal spot for sunrise or to settle down into the romance of sunset. Grab a bottle of wine from the local shop to enhance the magic of the moment.

If you're up for exploring a little further, the charming town of Cortazzone is just a three-minute drive away. Here, you'll find welcoming cafes and authentically Italian restaurants. Try the freshly-cooked pasta or pizza before wandering the town with gelato in hand.

The Softest Breeze

Housed in a historic building, this apartment is situated in the Riviere Esterne neighbourhood of Padua. While you'll need to take the stairs up to the home's entrance, it has two small balconies – one overlooking the district’s internal canal and another over the Riviera Paleocapa. If you need to catch up on work, there’s a study area here too, but we bet you’d prefer to explore this cultural city. Known for its frescoes such as those in the Scrovegni Chapel, there’s plenty to see. The iconic Specola is a five-minute walk, while an eight-minute stroll will take you to Piazza Duomo and the centre of this university town is ten minutes on foot.

Revealing panoramic views over Lake Maggiore, this scenic spot invites guests to reconnect with nature from day dot. Surrounded by scenery that stretches from the lake and over the mountains – it's no surprise that the apartment's best feature is its balcony. Gazing out at the views with a coffee in hand each morning will soon become a daily ritual. If cooking or sampling the local culinary delights are on the agenda, the kitchen and dining area allow you to do so in plain sight of the beautiful vistas. Located just a five-minute drive from Stresa, with an array of shops and restaurants, you'll also be just a few minutes by car from the local golf clubs here. 

Lake You a Lot 

Welcome Hamper

Views of Northern Italy's peaceful Lake Maggiore don't come much better than this. It's a scene best admired from the private balcony of this smart townhouse perched on the hillsides overlooking the Borromeo's islands. Inside, the newly refurbished, pared-back interiors are perfect for a fuss-free stay for two, and the pretty suntrap garden to soak up the Italian sunshine is a nice touch. You'll need a car here as it's pretty remote with no amenities to walk to – but don't let that put you off. Stresa's regal seafront promenade and cobbled streets bustling with trattorias are just a five-minute drive away.

Borromeo

Situated in the hills of the Province of Parma, this historic home is an idyllic spot for nature lovers looking for relaxation. There’s a private swimming pool among the fruit trees and a large patio terrace featuring a dining table and outdoor lounge, where you can spend lazy afternoons with a spritz and a good book. Meanwhile, the interiors blend original features with modern home comforts. Although the decor feels dated in places and may not be to everyone's taste, the style is in keeping with the area’s rich heritage.

Once the residence of a local noble lineage, this renovated country home provides a tranquil base for families and large groups. You'll find it nestled in verdant hillslopes, boasting five acres of lush landscaped gardens and panoramic views of the medieval town of Valfabbrica. Here, the famous Sentiero di San Francesco hiking trail is practically on your doorstep, while the beautiful towns of Perugia and Assisi are less than a thirty-minute drive away.

At first glance, this home charms with its rustic stone facade. Inside, it's all exposed beam ceilings, terracotta tiled floors and traditional furnishings. We especially love the country kitchen, fully equipped for home cooking and seamlessly connected to the lounge and dining room through wide, sweeping archways. After a restful slumber in the spacious sleeping quarters, fire up the Moka pot and enjoy espressos on the patio. 

Outside, expansive gardens offer ample space for relaxing in the sun. Spend your days catnapping on a sun lounger or tucking into a picnic amidst the foliage. On balmy evenings, gather for alfresco feasts on the wood-fired oven and masonry barbecue before curling up in the cosy lounge by the warm glow of the fireplace.

Divine Reverie

This stunning home is situated between the sea and the woods, in a tranquil spot on the island of Ischia. Drink in sea views and vistas of San Francesco Bay, Forio, and Ventotene from the sun loungers, the alfresco dining area, and the other pretty corners of the garden. There’s a Jacuzzi with sea views on the upper terrace, and a path leads directly to the sea. The villa is cheerful and pretty, with splashes of blue bringing the sea inside.

In the charming town of Desenzano del Garda, among the ancient ruins and intricate mosaics, this fascinating home invites you to experience the history that lives within its walls. Dating back to the 1900s, this apartment has many tales to tell, having been built by a local winemaker in the 30s. 

Combining history and culture, the building has been beautifully restored and retains many of its original features. Think fine marble staircases, wrought iron railings and intricately carved window frames – stepping into this home will transport you back in time. The interiors are super homely with pops of sunshine yellow, which perfectly mirrors the exterior.
Open up the French doors and take a seat on the comfy sofa to enjoy your morning coffee and gaze at the spectacular views of the lake. The private balcony looks out over the piazza, and is the perfect place to breathe in some fresh air and watch the world go by. You'll be ideally situated for exploring both the town and the beach, giving you the best of both worlds. 

Known for its ancient ruins and artifacts, head to one of the local museums to learn more about this fascinating part of Italy. Desenzano Castle is just 450 yards away, which has enjoyed a rich and varied past – climb up to the tower entrance for incredible views over Lake Garda.

When dinner time comes around, you'll be spoilt for choice, with an array of authentic Italian restaurants practically on your doorstep. But if you fancy a quiet, more private meal, we recommend buying some fresh ingredients and then heading home to try cooking some local delicacies yourself, washed down with a glass of wine and a movie on the sofa.


Sunshine Square

Tennis Court

Offering breathtaking views over Lake Garda’s sparkling waters and direct access to the shoreline, this home is a tranquil paradise. Set across five cascading terraces, this spacious home is all about outdoor living – from the private pool and diving board to a rooftop sun terrace and tennis court. Whether you’re enjoying dinner under the pergola, strolling to the local trattoria, or simply soaking up the view with a glass of local Chiaretto rosé, this place has a way of slowing time. Plus, Moniga’s charming harbour and castle are just moments away, waiting to be explored.
