Gold medal-winning villas in Italy

Gold medal-winning villas in Italy

We have absolutely loved watching the Olympics this year. Athletes from all over the world have inspired us with their performances, their attitude and their mental strength. Whether it’s the story of the GB swimmers who have had record successes in the pool, the stories of athletes that have achieved the incredible and overcome the odds in new Olympic sports such as Beth Shriever in the BMX, or the smile of Simone Biles as she completed her routine on the beam to secure the Bronze medal, all have brought smiles to our faces. And let’s not forget the double Olympic celebrations on Italy’s golden Sunday as Italian sprinter Lamont Marcell Jacobs won the 100 metre final and Gianmarco Tamberi opted to share first place in the high jump in a heart-warming display of sportsmanship.

Whilst we may not be able to rival the achievements of these athletes on the field, they have inspired us to create a list of gold medal-winning villas in Italy. Take a look at some of our finest Italy holiday rentals, perfect for your next Italy trip.

Casa Terre di Bea, Sicily

This 2 bedroom villa in Sicily oozes warmth and charm, whilst enjoying the most spectacular views over the blue Mediterranean sea below. Set in the heart of a nature reserve, we think it is best described as a 21st century Robinson Crusoe experience! With exceptional eco credentials, it also boasts a brand new pool for the 2021 season should guests prefer to lounge at the house rather than heading to the beach for a dip in the sea. Not only that, but the owner is one of the most generous, charismatic Italian gentlemen we’ve had the pleasure of meeting. So, why not find your Man Friday and experience Casa Terre di Bea for yourself?!!

Villa Buonanotte Barbanera

This villa rental in Umbria offers everything – a private pool, beautiful views and an immaculate designer interior. Even better, it’s within walking distance of amenities including some fabulous restaurants, friendly village stores and great wine bars. We recommend you hire a car during your stay but if you’d rather not, you’ll certainly be able to manage without one! Hire an e-bike in town instead and cycle to nearby Assisi through paths that take you through olive groves and vineyards.

This luxury villa in Tuscany offers the best of both worlds – the joys of a beach holiday with the fascination of exploring some of Tuscany’s most famous cities. As you head through the gates, you’ll feel like you have entered an oasis of tranquillity. In fact, it’s so peaceful that, as you gaze at the terrific views of the Renaissance fortress of Porto Ercole or lounge by the private pool, you’ll probably forget that you’re only a few minutes walk from the restaurants, bars, shops and lively night time scene of Porto Ercole.
