Continuing to showcase Italy’s charms and cinematic beauty, Netflix’s Ripley released on the 4th of March 2024 on Netflix only adds to the endless reasons to book a villa in Italy as soon as is physically possible. Using our comprehensive guide to the filming locations and destinations of the show, plan your own chic adventure in Italy but do note that there may be mild spoilers from things implied so read on with caution if you have not finished it yet!

Netflix’s new limited series, an adaptation of Patricia Highsmith’s 1995 novel, The Talented Mr. Ripley, once again showcases some of Italy’s most remarkable destinations, though with a gritty and Hitchcockian filter. Anthony Minghella’s 1999 movie adaptation of the same name, starring Matt Damon and Jude Law, elegantly displayed the laconic pleasures of holidays on the coast in the south of Italy as well as the cosmopolitan delights of her most famous cities while Ripley opens with some rather ominous shots of details of Rome’s lush and plentiful architectural and sculptural figures.

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!

More and more tourists are flocking to the endlessly appealing Apulia each year and for good reason. Not only will your budget stretch a little further than it might in many other parts of Italy, not only do we have a selection of incredible villas in Apulia, not only is there plenty to see an do in the region, but also Apulia is an utterly stunning region of natural beauty.

From the long and gorgeous coastline to the inland plains, Apulia is a region that boasts massive nature reserves, picture-perfect beaches, impressive craggy rock formations, pretty towns perched dramatically on cliffs, lush and vast hilly areas blanketed in olive groves and vineyards, and much more besides. The flattest region of Italy, there is only a small mountainous area that is part of the Apennines but there is still both plenty of visual drama and pastoral wonder in this magic part of Italy.

Liguria is famous for her gorgeous coastline and it has made the region, particularly the Cinque Terre area, one of the most desirable tourist destinations in Italy. Impossibly scenic, this is a coastline made up of dramatic craggy rocks set over rich, jewel-tone aquamarine waters. There are some charming beaches but rather than long sandy strands, Liguria abounds in striking swimming spots. Here you might not have soft sands to lounge about on but you will find incredibly romantic places from which to jump into those stunning waters. And if you have found your villa in Liguria and are looking for a particularly lovely swimming spot throughout your vacation, then we cannot recommend the Grotta di Lord Byron highly enough.
