Villa rental holidays have long been the preferred choice of holiday of families and large groups in particular. But if you’re someone who has traditionally always opted for a hotel but are now finding you’re having to tighten your belt this year, it’s worth considering opting for a cheap Italian villa holiday instead. Don’t worry – affordable doesn’t mean you will be skimping on quality. Far from it. We’ve selected some of the most affordable Italian villa rentals for you to enjoy. All will cost you less than £50 per person per night, even in the height of the Summer. What is more, we’re confident that whilst these villas may save you money, none will see a slip in the standard of holiday you’re used to!
Villa Dagnente is a large Italian Lakes villa rental sleeping up to 14 guests comfortably. With prices ranging from just £18 to £28 per person per night in peak season, it’s certainly an affordable villa rental for your Italian holiday. But affordable doesn’t mean it doesn’t come with lots of perks. For a start, it enjoys absolutely stunning lake views. Guests may find it hard to tear themselves away from the terrace but if you can bring yourself to do so, you’re only a five minute drive from one of the most beautiful towns on Lake Maggiore, Arona.
With prices as low as £23 per person per night in the quieter months of the year and under £40 per person per night even in July and August, there is a lot to like about this Villa Rossa in Tuscany! Sleeping up to 16 guests, a stay at Villa Rossa will ensure you have your own private pool to enjoy outside. But, even if the weather is unfavourable, you can still relax indoors in your private wellness and relaxation area, complete with sauna and plunge pool. Not only that though. This cheap villa in Tuscany is situated in the Upper Valdarno, one of the most beautiful areas of Tuscany, captured in paintings by Leonardo da Vinci amongst others.
Monastero di Favori, Le Marche
We love Monastero di Favori. Offering incredible value for money, this stunning villa rental will set you back just £45 per person per night even in the height of the Summer. Travel off season and you could stay here for as little as £21 per person per night! This villa rental may be cheap but it’s absolutely idyllic. The setting is stunning, with a beautiful garden that runs down to a charming stream. Set within the grounds is a large private swimming pool and there are ample activities to keep young children entertained. Head inside and you’ll find the interior just as magical.
At under £25 per person per night, Apartment Cerise is an affordable holiday rental in Umbria ticks all the boxes. We’re amazed by the value it offers holidaymakers. With four spacious bedrooms, it can sleep up to eight guests comfortably. You’ll have your own private terrace to enjoy and also use of a swimming pool which is shared with the other three apartments on site. What is more, you won’t have to lift a finger during your stay. This apartment is a short walk from the centre of the charming village of Paciano. Off the beaten track, Paciano’s restaurants similarly offer exceptional value for money.
There is nothing not to like about Sopra il Lago, an affordable Italian Lakes apartment. Sleeping up to eight guests in three bedrooms, this apartment rental is situated in the delightful village of Brezzo di Bedero. It’s just a short drive from the lakeside (and guests can even walk to the lake if they don’t mind the steep walk back!) But, what we love most of all is the incredible views. For as little as £12 per person per night, you can enjoy the most wonderful 180 degree views of the lake on a spacious terrace which enjoys the sunshine from morning until night.
These are just a snapshot of the cheap villas in Italy available to rent from Bookings For You. We have so many more affordable apartments and villas to choose from within our portfolio to ensure that your next Italian villa holiday doesn’t need to break the bank.
However, it’s also important to remember that, once you have bagged a bargain on your Italian villa rental, the savings don’t need to stop there. There are lots of other ways in which you can continue to save money on your next holiday. The money saving benefits of renting a villa are well known but the following tips on how to save money on your next Italian villa holiday is worth a read:
- Visit outside the main holiday season. 99% of villas will be more expensive across July and August. As a result, think about visiting in the late Spring or early Autumn instead when you’ll find your money goes much further.
- Book early. Whilst you may be lucky to grab a last minute deal to secure a cheap villa in Italy, it’s much easier to do so when booking early. For a start, you’ll have a pick of the best villas to choose from. But early booking discounts can make a big difference.
- Do your research in advance. When booking a holiday with Bookings For You, we’ll provide you with plenty of top tips about what to see and do when you’re enjoying your villa stay. But it’s worth doing your own research too. Find out the best value places to eat or the most affordable supermarkets to shop in before you arrive.
- Head off the beaten track. In the same way as you’ll find restaurants near the main tourist attractions hike up prices, you’ll find the same with villas too. Head slightly further away from the main tourist hot spots and you could well find villa prices that bit lower.
- Be organised with all elements of your holiday planning. Don’t just book your villa rental early. Be prepared and book the other elements of your stay early too. Whether you’re needing flights, car hire or even tickets for public transportation, all tend to go up in price the closer your stay gets.
