Boy, does Italy have villas! Of course, here at Italy Villas it’s the best place to find these properties. From historic villas that once housed the nobility of the region, to sleek and modern villas with all of the mod-cons, bells, and whistles that you could ask for.

In addition to these gems we also have: gorgeous old farmhouses surrounded by lush scenery in Tuscany’s famously lovely countryside, apartments and houses right in the centre of charming towns and beloved cities such as our vacation rentals in Rome and our holiday rentals in Venice, chalets in the Alps for ski breaks and overlooking the waters in Italy’s Lake District, traditional homes like the trulli of Apulia, actual castles, and much more besides.

While we always suggest booking your villa in Italy as far in advance as possible in order to have the widest range of options and dates to choose from, we understand that for some people this is not easy to do. Maybe it is hard to get time off of work or perhaps you have lots of different things going on and you are just too busy to think about it in advance – we understand, that can happen! However, this does not mean that you have to miss out on a perfect vacation, especially as you are probably very much in need of one! Simply check our our last-minute villas in Italy and you will find options where you can head off on vacation in the next couple of weeks. 

When booking a vacation, many people are after a property with lots of character and, in particular, local flavour. They want to feel as though they are in a specific place, a place in which they have chosen to vacation, not as though they could be anywhere in the world. Many of our villas in Tuscany have tonnes of character and are very distinctly Tuscan in style. Among them, however, the large and gorgeous Villa Fabbri is what many dream of when thinking of planning a vacation in Tuscany. 

If you have decided on a vacation in Italy, you might be weighing up your options when it comes to accommodation: Is a villa better than a hotel? Why might you choose to book a villa in Italy instead? Well, of course we’re a little bit biased but we think that there are plenty of great reasons to book a  holiday rental in Italy…

If you like your villas sleek, the sea close by, an amazing pool just a few steps outside your door, incredible views, and all of the mod-cons that you could ask for, then one of our newer listings, Villa Zigulotto, is a perfect option for your next vacation. Located on the beautiful island of Sicily in the Mediterranean, a short distance from the exceptionally pretty town of Noto and not far from the nearest beach, this stunning villa has all of the bells and whistles you could need and plenty of charm. For a holiday in Sicily, it's perfect!

Upon arrival at this three-bedroom, three bathroom (sleeping up to six guests in total) villa, guests will be immediately struck by its dreamy good looks. Think lovely natural surroundings, privacy ensured by the trees all around, a great view offered by its elevated position, neatly manicured grounds, terraces and patios with ample and luxurious outdoor furnishings, and elegant chic and sleek modern interiors.
