Here at Easy Reserve, we really care about our customers’ opinions and feelings. In order to ensure guests continue to have perfect getaways with us, we pay close attention to reviews. 

Reviews are also helpful for future guests, whether they have never booked with us before and want to know what to expect from Easy Reserve or they are curious about a specific property (even if they have booked with us before) and want to know what previous renters thought. 

Reading reviews is one more way to help you find the villa of your dreams, whether you are thinking of a villa in Tuscany to enjoy her stunning scenery and rich culture, a relaxing holiday rental in Crete, a sunny getaway and a vacation rental in Mallorca, or a villa in Rome to see the Eternal City – no matter what you want, we can help you find it along with the help of previous renters. 

To help you get started, here is a collection of just some recent reviews of some amazing vacation rentals that our customers loved… maybe one of them is the right one for you!

The author of this article happened to study art history at university and particularly admired the dreamy mythological paintings of one Sandro Botticelli but only from a distance for a great many years. Upon finally seeing one in real life, the resulting sobbing and outpouring of emotion at their beauty may have alarmed the gallery security staff quite a bit...

Many of us, in fact, are familiar with his works (especially the likes of the beyond iconic Birth of Venus) from their recurring use and appearances throughout pop culture and art but it is a rather different experience to get to see these stunning paintings in person and with your own eyes. Art-lovers and those interested in the great Renaissance Masters should certainly seek Botticelli out and, luckily, if you are planning a vacation in Italy, you will have plenty of opportunities to do so in museums all over the country.

Here are a list of the various museums in question, their locations, and the works that they house for your reference and convenience if you are thinking about booking one of our villas in Italy and are looking to make time to seek out some Botticelli works during your stay:

The pretty town of Impruneta boasts great proximity to Florence (it is in the metropolitan area, around 14km away from the city), a location among the rolling green hills and vineyards of Chianti. It is also impossibly pretty and charming in its own right, with a wonderful historic core featuring elegant palazzi, wide piazze, and leafy greenery throughout. Residenza Del Dosco is a gorgeous duplex apartment in a historic building right in this beautiful old town and is the perfect place to experience all the delights of a dream getaway in Tuscany…

Plenty of people dream of a destination wedding and Italy is an extremely popular destination, which makes sense – the food, the wine, the gorgeous scenery in historic towns or lush countryside locations! However, you might have a nebulous idea of an Italian wedding but haven’t quite landed on a perfect spot. If this is the case, read on as we have curated a list of five of Italy's premier wedding destinations, each with its own unique wonders that will make your big day utterly magical and unforgettable...

The simple but utterly refreshing Aperol Spritz is a perfect drink for beating the heat and cooling down during your vacation this summer. Originating from Venice and now popular all over the world, this tart and tasty cocktail is best enjoyed while soaking up the incredible surroundings and atmosphere of its homeland during a stay in one of our perfect vacation rentals in Venice...

Dating back to the 19th century and the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Spritz can trace its origins to the Austrian Spritzer, another simple drink that is a blend of equal parts white wine and water. It was concocted by the Habsburg Empire's soldiers, merchants, diplomats, and personnel who had found the Italian wines too potent and requested a spritz (spray) of water to lighten the wines. This practice soon gave birth to an entirely new beverage.
