For fashion lovers and fans of the first movie, the release of the Devil Wears Prada 2 this month loomed large in calendars as a major film event of the year. With a good portion of the plot taking place in Milan, one of the oldest and most celebrated fashion capitals in the world, those planning their summer stay at a villa in Lombardy or a vacation rental in Milan might want to take note of some key locations to add to their travel itinerary.

Set two decades after the original film, this sequel sees Anne Hathaway’s Andy Sachs return to Runway as their new features editor after every member of staff at her former newspaper is laid off. In need of a job and recently having gone viral for a speech on the continued importance of journalism in the current era, she takes the new role and must once again dive into the world of fashion and face off against Meryl Streep’s formidable Miranda Priestly.

For those who cannot bear to leave their four-legged pal behind, they’ll discover that there are few more dog-friendly or pet-friendly holiday destinations than Italy. Lots of businesses and attractions allow your furry family member to come along with you and we have plenty of pet-friendly vacation rentals in Italy here at Italy Villas so don’t compromise, enjoy your well-earned getaway and bring your pet along with you to be part of those precious memories...

When booking a vacation rental in Italy with us, the price point of a rental can vary quite a bit depending on the location, type of property, size, number of sleeps, and more. However, generally, you will have to book for a minimum of seven nights (though we do have some shorter stay holiday rentals in Italy to choose from) and then pay an amount per night.

Our least expensive, most budget-friendly rental starts at €21 per night and our most expensive luxury villa costs €10,000 per night. So, theoretically, the least amount of money that you will spend is around €147 for a week’s stay and the highest should be €70,000.

On average, of course, the amounts are neither quite so low nor so high. For a two-bedroom villa in Italy, prices generally range between €100 and €300 per night. Meaning that a week should cost between €700 and €2000+ for a vacation rental in Italy to house a small family or group of friends.
