House vacation rentals in Gioiosa Ionica

Sonia and Paulo were the perfect hosts. They greet you on the highway to take you up to their hillside retreat! Once you arrive you are personally taken through the home and showed how to use all amenities! We were greeted with wine, fresh bread, tomatoes, coffee, milk, butter, juices, water! Other breakfast items so no real need to get groceries after a long day of traveling. The bed was so comfy I thought I was in my own house. The outdoor space and grounds are impeccable. We walked and picked some fruit on the grounds. It was too cold in February for the pool but it was ready if we needed. Anything we needed was taken care of. What lovely people. We followed all recommendations for local restaurants, grocery stores and sites. Our stay was too short. We were very sad to leave this beautiful place and beautiful hosts. Book it! You will be so happy!

We had a fantastic vacation in a fantastic house. The house is situated great, below Gerace. You have a fantastic view and in Gerace you will find everything you need within walking distance. The house was very stylishly furnished, we felt very comfortable. The hosts are super helpful and very friendly. They gave us very great tips for restaurants and the area. We'd come back in a heartbeat!

Beautiful place, would highly recommend in! Davide was always very helpful .

Nice and practical house with everything you need! Very clean. Lovely large terrace overlooking the sea. Clean and nice pool just nearby. Walking distance to beach, free sun loungers and parasols. Crystal clear water. We got quick and good help from Britta and co as AC in the living room didn't work. This place is highly recommended!

The perfect location to be close to Tropea but also have privacy and peace. Luisa was very kind and was always available to answer our questions. The appartment was very clean and had everything we needed, the parking space was also very appreciated. Highly recommend staying here if you want to be in a peaceful space while also being close to the beaches.

First experience with AirB&B and I couldn't have started better. The very clean property is very tidy and has the strong point of the very comfortable garden and swimming pool that make the stay very relaxing. Perfect also because I had a medium-large dog. The friendly and helpful owners were always able to respond to my needs. The location is strategic, even if you need the car, the center or commercial activities are close. The area is quiet. I highly recommend it.

Thank you for your hospitality and clean very apartment.

We felt completely comfortable. Thank you so much!

idyllic mountain village surrounded by friendly Italian people. In winter it can get cold in the house, even if in the morning the sun is shining surrounded by lemon trees. We always had power outages. It was worth the trip. 🍋🌞🍊

Super special location, like living in a monument. Loved the big balcony which, with the sun is amazing for some morning yoga! 🧘

A fantastic place to go on vacation. Everything you need for 6 people is available in the house. Plenty of space and you feel at home within minutes. You need a car to explore the surrounding area, but there is plenty of space on the property for large cars. We didn't want to leave and can definitely imagine coming back - if only to admire the future pool (which was still missing this time for the full 5-star rating - but is probably in the works).

Special thanks to Alessandro, he is a friendly and helpful person who made us feel immediately at home. He provided us with useful tips on the area and places to visit. The accommodation is great for location and tranquility and corresponds in all respects to the description. Highly recommended.

Very nice and well-equipped place right by the beach. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to come back.

Well organized and clean accommodation, easily accessible and in a strategic position to be able to reach all places on the coast of the gods. Very quiet and peaceful area. Well-stocked kitchen with every utensil and very welcoming private garden. Rosa has always been a host present at every request and information.

We were glad to find Antonio’s place at the last moment. The place felt right at home. Exactly what we wanted. A peaceful place to stay with nature. The place has a sea view over the olive trees. Parking is on site with plenty of space. Train station is within walking distance (a plus). Antonio was very responsive and let us in the apartment earlier than we expected. Grazie mille Antonio! È stato un piacere!!!

Alessandra and Pietro are two exquisite people. As soon as we booked, Alessandra wrote to us to give us advice on the area and to get inspired by the places to visit with all the information also regarding the village of Bova. We found in the latter an interesting strategic position to be able to visit all the most important points of Greek Calabria, as well as being a splendid well-kept village with cultural events of all kinds. The cottage was beautiful with everything you could need, well-kept and very clean. Opening the door of the house, it was possible to visit everything on foot quietly. We recommend it to all those who want to have a "different" vacation experience by getting to know this area thoroughly while maintaining all the comforts of the vacation itself.

Beautifully clean, quiet and delightful sea breezes in the beach front. Weather wasn’t so good but the ever changing colours of the sea was magic! Restaurants nearby are fantastic too!

Lovely big house with lots of space to hang out and eat. Short walk to everything. Good facilities.

We had an amazing time, the apartment and the view from the terrace is beautiful! Monica is a wonderful host!

This house is a marvel! So much room! The architecture is amazing, but it has been modernized for things like the windows and the electrical. The kitchen was very functional with a full-sized fridge and all the tools you would ever need in a rental. But the real star is the garden…a dozen fruit trees! A tiny oasis behind the house. There is an outdoor dinner space complete with a wood grill and room to eat outside if you decide not to go out. Giuseppe’s mom met us when we arrived and walked us through everything and could not have been nicer. Parking is on the street, but other than when we first checked in, we never had trouble finding a spot right next to the house. Whether you intend to spend time in the water as we did or use it as a base to explore Calabria, this is an great place.

Hidden gem, very rustic, outstanding views, great restaurants! Antonia and Giulia are wonderful, attentive hostesses! Unique property, loved our stay!

This must be the best location in all of Tropea for the VIEW!! It’s simply breathtaking and there is a very large terrace to enjoy your morning coffee and evening wine. The apartment is nice, clean, and as described. Adriano is an excellent host and communicates very well. 100% recommend!

The house is really great for a larger family! It has everything you need. Beautiful sea views from the giant terrace simply magnificent. Paolo and his team went above and beyond to make sure we were well. Really great vacation! Thanks for everything

Apartment is nicely furnished and spread over two floors with two bathrooms. On the ground floor is a double bedroom and a small bedroom with a bed with the possibility to set up a bunk bed. The kitchen is sufficiently furnished. A washing machine is provided, Wi-Fi is not provided. The apartment is centrally located on a small side street. The train station is not far away. However, the train traffic is not disruptive. You can hear the occasional train announcements from the train station. Overall, the stay was pleasant. The communication with the landlord was quick and easy.
