Earth house vacation rentals in South Italy

Fantastic location by the sea! Lovely house with great views of the sea. Pozzillo was fabulous and Italians but no foreigners, so it is a genuine fishing port with swimming and sunbathing. the restaurant il Gato Pescatore is really good and very reasonable…

Lovely Villa, beautiful outdoor space with pool and sun terrace. Lovely access to the sea via Beach with padel board and kayak. Very nice spot.

wonderful accommodation for those who want to experience sleeping in a historic home.... furnished in every detail, clean and very well equipped. The owner was always available and considerate towards us. A few minutes from some of the most beautiful places in the area.

Chiara’s airbnb is the perfect place to stay at when exploring Matera! A beautiful and quiet « cave home », in the heart of Matera. Chiara was very responsive and gave us great recommendations for restaurants and activities. We highly recommend her place. We also recommend hiking the Parco Regionale della Murgia Materana at sunset. Incredibly beautiful! Thank you Chiara for welcoming us in your very special home!

We had a great 5 day stay at the house and enjoyed the outstanding views and peaceful atmosphere. The hot tub was an added bonus and the patio had great seating arrangements. Fabrizio was an attentive host and always responded quickly. He kindly picked us up at the ferry dock and drove us back down upon our departure. We did not cook but the kitchen seemed to have everything that was necessary. Spaces within the house were large and comfortable. We did not have a vehicle so getting places was challenging but we did manage to use the bus. I would highly recommend Profumo di Mirto Thank you Fabrizio!

We had the pleasure to enjoy the villa dei sogni for almost two weeks. Like our first visit, it was again just breathtaking. The house, the pool and especially the view, absolutely amazing! See you next time, villa dei sogni!

Absolutely magnificent surroundings & that local feel . Highly recommend this place . Had a wonderful time

Far better than expected. Wonderful little apartment. Excellent host who answered every query instantly throughout our trip. Highly recommend.

Lovely place, spacious and well designed. Beautiful terrace. The only downside for some could be a considerable climb up the hill, which we didn’t mind that much. Would definitely stay here again.

Great location inside the city walls. Clean and very well organized space - precisely as described. The garden is a nice touch. The hostess Mare, was outstanding. The perfect balance of professional responsivity, assistance and information, while giving guests uninterrupted quiet enjoyment time to take in the location and history. Thank you. An excellent overall experience.

Cosy apartment with real fire

We highly recommend this unique and peaceful home. Matera is beautiful but crowded, and when we visited, quite hot. What a joy to come back after a long day to the cool quiet of Tiziana’s little stone home. Tiziana was very easy to communicate with, and check-in and check-out, performed by Tiziana’s kind and helpful parents, was pleasant, personal, and informative. Groceries nearby and restaurants and shops plentiful but be prepared to walk stairs. That’s part of the fun and uniqueness of Matera. Thank you for a marvelous stay Tiziana and family!

Loved our stay here - very remote & peaceful up in the mountains. Friendly hosts and lovely room :)

5 stars - Beautiful Trullo and great host. We had a fantastic time in Trullo Dorado. It is a beautiful Trullo tastefully decorated and homely inside with very pretty gardens and a lovely pool. Vito and Guiliano were amazing, very welcoming and helped to book a surprise wine tasting for my parents 30th wedding anniversary which was a highlight of our trip. They also offer different experiences such as a piazza night where you can make your own pizza which I highly recommend! The location is great for trips into Alberobello(5 mins by car) and travelling further afield around Puglia’s many beautiful towns. A perfect holiday for the 3 of us and hope to return soon. We would definitely recommend.

Mauro is a great host. His culinary recommendations were perfect. The space is special!

Mirko was a great host and his place is amazing. The location is amazing and has all grocery stores (one right outside) and restaurants nearby. There is public transport right outside which takes you to the city center. Kids play areas nearby as well. Now coming to the villa- a huge garden and a trampoline and hammock to enjoy the outdoors. The inside has this old rustic charm that is an amazing experience. A parking right inside is a cherry on the top. Mirko was kind enough to leave a welcome gift as well. The communication was great. I would definitely recommend it to everyone and if you have kids they will surely enjoy this place. Totally worth it!

First of all, I would like to thank Oscar for his warm welcome. It is a place of amazing beauty and full of peace. The rooms, the colours, the overall atmosphere, the authenticity - everything made my heart happy. Oscar lives nearby, but we felt like we were the only residents. In fact, it is the pictures that do not convey the true beauty of the villa. You will definitely be satisfied and happy if you choose to stay here. I rarely write reviews about places I visit. But now this is really worth my time and energy. Good luck! Warm regards.

Marin’s place was in a peaceful neighborhood that was close enough to visit Dubrovnik during the day. The neighborhood also had walkable restaurants and local beaches that never were too crowded. Marin was never short of recommendations and was always spot on. We’ll never forget the beautiful views with coffee each morning.
