About this property
TERRAZZA PARADISO - Elegant Apt with a Furnished Roof Garden, Sleeps 4 + parking
If you are looking for the serenity of a place to relax, this apartment is for you. Strategically located inside Orvieto's wall. You can get to the house by car to unload luggage, and then park in a convenient parking lot near by (no extra charge).
The Apartment Terrazza Paradiso (Paradise Terrace) was published on this site by another manager from 2015 to May 2019. The last years we decided not to rend the house because of the Covid-19 pandemia. For this reason there are just a few reviews on this site at the moment, but copies of previous customer reviews can be sent on request. The Apartment Paradiso is a spacious two storey independent house, situated on a picturesque, cobbled side street, a short amble from Orvieto wonderful cathedral. The owners Roberto and Rosalba await to give you a truly Italian welcome, and assure you that all anti-covid security protocols will respected for your safety.
Since you open the door and step into this beautiful house you will fall in love. The elegant marble staircase leads you to a light, spacious accommodation (around 900 sq feet), laid out over two floors, right in the heart of historic Orvieto.
Located in a 16th century building this first and second floor apartment has been decorated with attention to detail and comfort. Carefully selected antiques fill the rooms, colorful art hangs on the walls, precious fabrics enrich the elegant rooms, flowers cascade from terra-cotta planters on the well furnished roof terrace. In short, everything recalls the atmosphere of a "real home" which welcomes and makes you feel immediately "at home"!
Inside this elegant and well-furnished apartment you will find a large open-space living room with parquet floors, comfortable sofas, an antique dark wood sideboard, an elegant round dining table with seating for up to six and a kitchen well equipped with every tool to prepare meals. For your entertainment in the lounge there is a TV that offers a variety of channels (some English-speaking channels), a radio system to listen to music and WiFi Internet access.
On the second floor there are two spacious and tastefully furnished double bedrooms, each with large King sized beds, beautiful antique sconces, heavy curtains in fine fabrics, terracotta floors and large ceiling fans to cool you during the summer months. The bathroom is spotless, decorated in pale blues tiles and furniture and soft luxurious towels welcome you to the shower. The apartment has gas central heating for comfort in the colder months. A cot is available upon advance request.
From the second floor you can reach the magnificent terrace on the rooftops of Orvieto, which extends the living space to the outdoors. You will experience a piece of paradise, between colorful flowers and small trees in terracotta pots. The perfect spot for breakfast, lunch or dinner, the beautifully furnished outdoor dining terrace and seating area ensure our guests can enjoy the wonderful and unique Umbrian light and balmy summer evenings. Spring, early summer and autumn are exceptionally lovely in Umbria and so this terraced garden can be enjoyed throughout the seasons. Two comfortable sofas and armchairs, a lava stone table, wrought iron chairs, sun loungers, pillows and a large umbrella furnish the terrace. Everything about this paradisiacal terrace appeals to the senses: the fragrance of cascading flowers, the waft of hilltop breezes while sunbathing on a comfortable sun lounger... The terrace is equipped with lighting, so it can also be enjoyed at night. This is the best spot for relaxing, reading a book, sipping a glass of wine or spending a romantic evening under the stars!

We cannot recommend this home enough. Rosalba was an amazing host- welcoming and sending us off warmly, like we were members of the family. The home is in a wonderful location and absolutely beautiful -as is the town. Parking, while a bit away, was easy to navigate and getting back to the home was not an issue. We cannot wait to return again in the future.

Dear Michelle, Thank you for coming to Orvieto and to our house. It was a pleasure to host you and we really hope you will come back in the future!
Rosalba and Carlo
Rosa was a great host, caring and kind. The property was beautiful and immaculately clean. The location was perfect: away from crowds, but a short walk to restaurants, shops, and sights. The rooftop patio was delightful. All in all, a great stay!
From reservation through our last day, Rosalba was completely on top of all aspects of our visit. This property is a beautiful respite from all the activities and touring around and in Orvieto. Being able to walk throughout Orvieto from Terrazza Paradiso to historic sites and incredible restaurants was such a bonus to this relaxing home. Loved the terrace!
Spacious and comfortably furnished private apartment in the old city, with rooftop terrace, easy walk to shopping, groceries and Orvieto attractions.Hostess Rosalbo welcomed us graciously and was available if needed.
Terrazzo Paradiso was exactly as advertised. Host met us upon arrival and was accessible when needed. Perfect location within walking distance to everything Orvieto.
Orvieto was a charming town and the apartment’s patio allowed us to soak up the sun. The apartment was well stocked and the parking garage was great. Loved my stay in Orvieto.
We loved this rental in Orvieto! Great location, house was very clean, very well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds and the outdoor patio was amazing!! We were really able to relax here and enjoy Orvieto. I highly recommend!

Beautiful house in the old town of Orvieto, all rooms decorated with taste and attention to detail. Very well equipped and the owners are really helpful and friendly. The roof terrace is great. We stayed 9 days and enjoyed it very much.

Mark, it was a pleasure to host you and your family. You are always welcome to our apartment.
We had a lovely stay at Terrazza Paradiso. The apartment is located in the center. Easy access to everything g. The host was available and responsive. The home is welcoming, clean and well appointed. We would definitely recommend.
Rosalba was the best and most helpful host we have ever met in all our travels. She repeatedly exceeded all hopes. The apartment was spacious, clean, and very much a home rather than an apartment. We would definitely return here on our next trip to Orvieto. It was perfect!

It was a pleasure for me hosting Ken and John. They are the kind of people you perceive as old friends from the first moment you meet them. They took great care of the house, which they left clean and in perfect order. I really hope to host them again in the future.
The host was quite gracious. She gave us a good review of the property and was very available when we had trouble with public parking. The apartment was very well maintained with some nice antiques. It wasn't a big deal, but you asked if the online listing was accurate. It was, except it said ther was a hot tub on the property.

Dear Steve, I am terribly sorry about what you pointed out about the hot tub. You are right, on the site, but by mistake, it was reported there was a hot tub, but I never clicked on that option…Anyway I thank you because your review gave me the opportunity to correct the mistake, otherwise I wouldn't have noticed it. I apologize, and hope that it was not a serious inconvenience for you and you enjoyed your stay in our property.
Tarrrazzo paradiso is well named. It’s small but very efficient. Beautifully appointed, excellent roof terrace and comfortable bedrooms. The owner, Rosalba, is friendly, helpful, available but discreet. She made our stay very successful. And Orvieto is an amazing place - full of history, great food and amazing views out to the Umbri hills. We strongly recommend this town and this apartment.
Terrazza Paradiso was perfect. So close to restaurants and shops but away from the main tourist streets. Our host Rosalba was great - helpful and available without being intrusive. Apartment was clean and well equipped with very comfortable beds. Sofas not so comfortable! Spent 2 weeks there with different family members, terrace great for sitting and socialising.

Thank you Helen for your feedback, especially that about sofas. We care a lot about our guests opinion, we want them to have the best experience and confort possible during their stay in our property. So we have already bought a new sofa which will be delivered in a few days.
Thanks again. Carlo and Rosalba
Rosalba is the ideal host! She was extremely kind and genuinely cared that we had a good experience
The home is beautiful! It looks and feels like a real home. Rosalba has thought of everything to make your stay comfortable. The kitchen is fully stocked, the bedrooms are cozy and comfortable and the outside terrace is delightful to sit and read or visit with family over a glass of wine! The location is within 5-10 minutes walking distance from shopping, restaurants, bars and the famous sites to tour. It is by far the best place “home away from home” we have ever stayed. Thank you for a wonderful experience!!

It was a pleasure hosting you! I thank you for your kindness and for the care and respect you had for our apartment and the house rules. You will always be welcome!
Without a doubt, this was the best online booking we have ever made. I’m not sure that the photos sufficiently conveyed the beauty of this property. In addition, it was well maintained and in a perfect location. Rosalba was very attentive and available to help us with anything. The prepared welcome book outlined everything we needed to make the most of our stay in Orvieto. I’m sure we will be back!

Rob, it was a pleasure hosting you. I really hope to see you again, you will be welcome to our apartment any time! Rosalba
Wonderful property. Well appointed and Rosalba had thought of everything! Even facial tissue and wash cloths. Beautiful apartment. Only difficulty was very busy and loud traffic just under the bedroom windows. We still had a great stay and loved the apartment.
Our stay in this truly lovely Orvieto apartment was perfect! Immaculately clean, furnished with loving care, fully equipped kitchen and the most beautiful garden terrace. We spent every morning with coffee, and quiet evenings enjoying the local wine and watching the sunsets. This place was very comfortable after our days outings. We were pleasantly surprised to have visited during the Pentecost, many wonderful festival activities to celebrate this special time. Rosalba, our host, was so kind and thoughtful. Accommodating us royally. We are very fortunate to have met her. Thank you, Rosalba, for a most memorable time in your beautiful home.

Dear Maureen and Gary, It was a pleasure to host you, I think I didn’t nothing special! I like to consider the guests of our vacation home as my personal guests and I try to meet their needs and desires.
I thank you, you were perfect guests!
Rosalba
We just stayed in Terrazza Paradiso for a week and it was a fabulous experience. Rosalba was so easy to communicate with and was a very gracious hostess. She arranged our lunch tour & drove us to & from a wonderful winery. The house is immaculate & so well stocked with everything you needed & The beds were very comfortable. The Terrace is So Wonderful, with gorgeous flowers, a lemon tree , comfy furniture & a huge umbrella to shade you from that beautiful Umbrian sun while sipping your morning cappuccino! If you like history Walking & exploring Orvieto was like being on a movie set. Only a few minutes walk to great restaurants,The Duomo & other museums. We can’t wait to come back.
This unit is unbelievably great! Perfect location, the unit itself is beautifully decorated and probably the best stocked VRBO of any I’ve ever stayed at. The hosts are terrific and communication was excellent! As great as the unit is the star of this show is the terrace! It’s just lovely on a nice day! The one exception was internet. It’s very slow.. most of the time it was under 1mbps with occasional spikes around 4-5 mbps. Even with the internet I highly recommend this little gem in Orvieto!

Dear Bill, I thank you for your feedback. I always appreciate my guests suggestions, particularly when they underline things to be improved. Orvieto houses have very thick stone walls and this is a problem with the propagation of internet waves. I already consulted a technician to install a satellite Internet antenna on the roof, so as to overcome the problem.
Thanks again for your feedback!
You will always welcome back to our property!
