We often share reviews of our properties from our customers and why they highlight certain properties as especially impressive and worth your while. However, if you head over to Trustpilot, you will see that almost 500 customers have also reviewed our company and our services, rather than just vacation rentals in Italy themselves. This allows you to understand that what really sets us, and our parent company Easy Reserve, apart is not just the incredible selection of villas in Italy and elsewhere that we have for you to choose between but the quality of care, attention, and service that you can expect from our team when you contact us. 

Whether you're looking for free personalised advice to help you find something specific, you want to plan a big gathering, you want to find a destination wedding villa in Italy, or if you just want to rest assured you'll always have a real person to talk to should you need anything. We also offer support and care before, during, and after your stay, giving you peace of mind from day one. But don't just take our word for it, if you have been dreaming about planning your next trip, allow our customers to explain why you should book with us...

Are you going to be attending a destination wedding in Italy and have you been considering staying in a nearby villa in Italy or planning a complementary trip before or after the celebrations? Well, if so, simply contact us and our  team will help you to organise everything so that you can really make the most of your time in the country and so that you have nothing to worry about!

Continuing our new series of identifying the best and most unique bucket list items to add to your Italian itinerary in addition to the more traditional examples that many will note – the Uffizi, Milan's iconic Cathedral, Vatican City, and more – we have another gem that we think you should make a point to see if you are booking a vacation rental in Rome: the sculptor Bernini's magical and mind-blowing ability to turn marble into flesh.

This incredibly gifted 17th century sculptor and architect left a huge stamp on Vatican City with his designs for St Peter's and his multiple sculptures that are famous for their extraordinary optical illusions and immense skill. He managed to act out full scenes with his sculpted figures through their expressive faces and the changing perspectives viewers were offered as they walked around a piece. However, Bernini's greatest feat might perhaps be on display in his piece, the Abduction of Proserpina.

We have been recently thinking about what we believe the best and most unique bucket list items to add to your Italian itinerary are. There are the obvious things that everyone will have down and that are certainly worth adding to your own – visiting the Leaning Tower of Pisa, wandering around Pompeii, gazing up at Michelangelo's ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, taking a gondola ride along the canals of Venice, sipping Limoncello on a seaside terrace along the Amalfi Coast, and more – but there are some slightly less obvious things that we think are actually unmissable.
