Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Contrada Difesa II

Quirico was a dream to communicate with and so nice the place is so close to the beach. Very peaceful

We had a lovely stay at Casa Fortuna. It’s Right in the old city of Pizzo and close to the piazza and the beach. The kitchen was well-equipped and we didn’t miss anything! Paola was a perfect host and very welcoming and forthcoming!

If you want to have a quiet vacation, this is the place to be. The surrounding area is very quiet and the beach right in front of the house is also not very busy. The beach bar is also great. The accommodation was very clean and all utensils, as well as basic spices, were also provided for cooking. Giuseppina was very friendly, always responded very quickly and was very helpful. We will definitely recommend this place and hopefully come back soon.

We really enjoyed our stop in this village and this authentic house. Our host's father-in-law guided us on foot through the alleys to discover the peculiarities and history of this place. It was really interesting and caring. The house has a very large terrace with exceptional views of the Ionian Sea. It's a pleasure to have breakfast there. Pharmacy, doctor, grocery store, restaurants, bars, local services are present. Everything you need to have a good time with a host, Francesco is very responsive to your requests. Recommended!

Lovely place, especially the garden. Super well located. Great communication and super flexible check-in. Well equipped kitchen. It was also great to have cooking basics in the house!

The accommodation in Santa Maria is highly recommended: The apartment is functionally furnished and the garden is romantic. You can hear the sound of the sea and it's just a short walk to the beach. Anna is a warm and helpful personality. She responds immediately and also helped us a lot with an evening noise nuisance. In short: When visiting the Costa degli Dei, the house in Santa Maria is a great address - we would come back anytime. Thank you, Anna, for everything!

We loved our stay at Jay’s place in Conflenti! It was in the mountains and so peaceful. Everyone in town was incredibly friendly; they made us feel right at home. Hosts were amazing and so helpful. The restaurant that is within walking distance was delicious. We ate there all 3 days of our stay! I couldn’t recommend this place more. Amazing! Thank you Jay, Angela, and Mariano!

I wish i could cancel the rest of my trip and just stay in Tropea at this place - it was the highlight of our trip! I will 100% be coming back. I want to recommend it to everyone i know! Stefano was an amazing host with great recommendations and fast responses. He even FaceTimed us to show us extra features of the house! The view is unmatched and the house is super clean and welcoming. Felt right at home. Can't wait to come back one day. Grazie mille!

Francesco's place in located in a relatively quiet place (gets quite noisy on the weekends, including loud music at the pool in the afternoon). Our kids loved the big pool! We went in the mornings, when it wasn't crowded. We also liked the beach a lot, we went in the evening, when it was quiet and the sunsets were amazing. To access the gym, one needs a key, which I was told, they only give to owners, not guests. Francesco was very kind and found a solution, so that my husband could use it. For me, a runner, the only downside of the location is no paths to run on and roads with no side. Otherwise, we loved the place! The apartment itself was small but more than enough for the 4 of us. My only complaint could be it wasn't supe clean and the kitchen equipment was quite basic (no bread knife or toaster). The air-con was great :) Francesco was always available for questions via messages and replied swiftly. All in all, I would definitely recommend the place! Thank you, Francesco :)

Comfortable two-room apartment, there was everything to be able to stay in peace ...the area requires to be motorized as it is a little isolated from the nightlife... since it is an apartment building, the amenities are more than enough and in line with the described... quiet place for families who can move by car to reach the tourist attractions nearby.

Incredible environment and a very nice house! Perfect for larger groups and the service was great.

Absolutely great villa where spend your vacation!

Great area, a few kilometers north of Pizzo Calabro 500 meters from a large beach that can be reached on foot through a fragrant pine forest. Spacious and fully furnished apartment. The residence where it is located, has two pools, one with a water slide, tennis courts and soccer. Great welcome from the owners, kind and helpful. Recommended for everyone.

We really enjoyed the time at the place. Functionally furnished, everything you need. Close to the sea really great and very clean water at the end of May before the season. A restaurant within walking distance, the pizza there is great, but also the fish dishes. From 01.06 there is also a bar on the beach and on weekends the Jugaad Lounge is very cozy. The fact that we were right at the entrance gate of the house did not bother us. There are loungers and a beach umbrella if you take the umbrella stand to the beach, nothing will fly away. There are great gelaterias and restaurants in Davoli max 10 min by car. We had a perfect 7 days and only missed the pool a little, which should have been filled on 06/01. The people there and the fantastic landscape made up for it. ;-)

Marina’s place was close to everything. It was very spacious and modern with a large kitchen and bedrooms. It was well situated near the train station and the historic centre. An easy walk away! The view was great and the extra outdoor space was very nice to use. It is situated in a secure complex with gates, a pool and private parking. We highly recommend this place. And you couldn’t ask for a better host!

The space is absolutely amazing! We had two wonderful days with lemons and oranges from the very nice garden. The location is unique and you have a fantastic view of the city from the balcony. We will be happy to come back!

Really nice spot. Simple, clean and right at the (almost private) beach. Fresh agricultural produce by roadside farmers 4 minutes by car. Roger is usually closeby and always approachable for questions and help.

Very homely, like walking into someone’s home! Lots of added extras. Lovely clean linen and towels…. Amazing balcony to spend lazy days and watch the sunset over the mountains…. Close proximity to town.

Lovely house in olive grove. Beautiful view. Well equipped kitchen. Gioditta was a great host, responded quickly and picked us up after we left wrong. Follow the instruction with the road. You can't use Google Maps if you're coming from the south. Nice walk to village. We got to look at the olive harvest. I would recommend the place if you need peace and quiet.

We had a great time. The apartment is well equipped. Mario and Natalia welcomed us very warmly. There was extra cake and limoncello, both very delicious. Also, the fridge was filled with milk and juice, coffee capsules,water and tea as well as jam all available. The beach is great. We didn't do much else. Snorkeling there was awesome .

Marcello was very kind and helpful, with many local recommendations.

We had a fantastic stay in this beautiful Tropea apartment. The balcony view was like a dream — watching the sunset each evening with our kids was unforgettable. Its location was perfect, just off Corso Vittorio Emanuele with plenty of dining options, and steps away from the beach and port. The apartment is spacious, tastefully decorated, and the hosts were incredibly welcoming. Highly recommended!

We were in the area for 3 days researching our Southern Italian family roots. From the location close to the tiny towns in the mountains to the sea, it was perfectly situated between both. There was coffee and goodies for a light breakfast - and a nice balcony porch to enjoy the morning and evenings. We definitely will stay here on any future visits.

Very large space, We felt comfortable there. His restaurant near the beach is also recommended. Very good cuisine with reasonable prices. We will be happy to come back.
