Calabria rentals with pool

We loved Il Casale, walking to and getting fruit and veg from the farm nearby, the surrounding towns and the beaches. Hanging out at the house is supremely comfortable but do take the opportunity to explore. The beach at Riaci was our favorite. The pizza place and gelateria in Spilinga both great and feel like a dip into local life. The baker on the main route that bypasses the center of Ricadi makes a delicious ‘pizza pane’ (plain focaccia with the lightness of pizza dough) that is very nice for picnics. Sarah is a great host!

A remarkable place with a fascinating history and breathtaking views. Staff were lovely. House very comfortable and the photos do not do it justice. Beach and the sea = a dream. Here's a tip if you are there over mid-August holidays: head down to the sea early morning, return before holiday boats arrive around 0930 and sun gets on the cliff OR opt for early evening after 1730. Excellent for snorkelling too. We hope to return.

A wonderful house, the photos don’t do it justice! We were 2 families of 4 and had a wonderful time. Beautiful views, good pool and very comfortable (and thankfully air conditioned!) bedrooms. The house is about 10 mins (drive) from a super beach and 25 mins from Tropea. The agents Enticoa Travel were very helpful. Note, a car is definetely needed and the roads are quite winding but not a problem.

Have been in a lot of holiday homes over the years and this has to be one of the best properties we have ever stayed in. Well furnished, comfortable and well equipped. Outside there is a fabulous eating area as well as brick built BBQs and Pizza Oven. The garden is exquisite and the many features and mix of old and new really appealing. Give Amantea a try, really good Pizza restaurants and very well priced. Antonio and his wife couldn't have been more helpful and even brought us a delicious fruit pie and Limoncello. First class and would highly recommend it to others, as a base to explore this relatively unspoiled piece of coastline.Lastly the view- truly breathtaking - you can never grow tired of it- come here for this alone!!

This house was perfect for us (two couples) with two ensuite bedrooms, modern bathrooms and a nice kitchen/living room opening onto good outdoor spaces. The kitchen was well equipped (especially liked the bean to cup coffee machine). Unlike other villas we've had where the kitchen was stripped bare of 'essentials' left by other guests, this one was generous, with salt, oil, balsamic vinegar etc all there and the hosts gave us a bottle of wine, and there were plenty of cooking knives, tea towels, and all sorts of useful cooking equipment. There were a stack of beach towels, bags and umbrellas too. All in all it was the most generously equipped villa we've ever had. The views were stunning. Outdoor pool nice for a cool off. The only thing we'd have liked better was closer access to the beach - you could cut through the Blue Bay Hotel access road but it was still a 15 minute walk with a stiff climb on the way home. Do-able for a day on the beach but not so practical for a quick morning sea swim. Trattoria di Mimmo just a 10 minute walk away serves excellent pizza at great value, with amazing views of Stromboli.
