Family-friendly holiday rentals in Balkans

This is one of our favorite stops on our honeymoon through Sicily. Dorotea's place was even more beautiful than the pictures!! The view from the terrace was stunning!! Dorotea allowed us to check in early, and met us there to show us around the place and the property. She was so friendly and gave us a lot of advice for the area for places to eat and things to do. This was a great location to walk to Isola Bella and Mazzarro beach, as well up as to the town. Dorotea was also very helpful and responsive to our messages before we arrived. We hope to return soon, and would love to stay at Dortoea's place for a longer stay next time!

Great communication, super well organised checking in and out, location perfect with full view of classic Oia sunset from balcony. Minimart right below as well to grab snacks and wine for sunset

Wow! What an amazing stay we have had! Hosts were always available with queries, supplied lots of information and tips in relation to Dubrovnik and left maps/guidebook also. Attention to detail was incredible and absolutely everything was thought of - board games, books, coffee machine with pods and little milks. The apartment was spotless, so clean, the views are out of this world - loads of room on the terrace to sunbathe, sit in the shade and then have a dip in the hot tub with the views. Air conditioning was great after a day strolling around the Old Town - the bus was at the top of the hill which takes you into Old Town Dubrovnik within 10/15 minutes. The hosts even sent us the timetable of the bus schedule - absolutely everything was thought out. Thank you for an amazing stay!!!

Helpful and accommodating host, easy check in and perfectly located to explore and the local area. Thank you!

Beautiful, quite and charming little house ( trulli).with a great terrace and a fantastic jacuzzi in the middle of no where but yet only 10 min. ( by car) from 2 beautiful villages: Locorotondo and Cisternino. The trulli is nicely decorated, with airco! Only 1 bed for 2p. It was great to enjoy the jacuzzi early in the morning and late in the night. Everything is very clean and Luciana was of great help.

Our stay was fantastic! The location was close to everything in Fira and we walked everywhere. The home itself was wonderful. Perfect space for a family of four with two teenage girls. The view was spectacular and the outdoor space made our entire visit. We could definitely stay again if we visit Santorini again.

Great place and location. Easy walk to the bus stop and to good restaurants. Place was beautiful with a very nice view from the huge patio, we loved the pool/hot tub. Lots of stairs/uphill to get there which was only a little tough on day 1 with luggage but easily done if you don’t have any physical limitations, and without luggage no big deal.

Beautiful house with incredible view and wonderful hostess

What a pleasure to have stayed in Diego‘s wonderful and peaceful home surrounded by such a lovely neighbourhood. We loved the rustic flair of the place and appreciated the materials/elements/shapes/colours Diego embedded into this lovely cave. You can tell that Diego has a good eye for things. Diego is also an excellent host and gave us tips for hikes to particularly beautiful places and more. Since we visited lovely Scicli during Mai/June and experienced the garden in full bloom, it was such a soothing oasis - the special gem. The shower space, design and experience is incredible and comes with a view to the sky. It's the big little things that make it so special: the tableware in the kitchen, pictures placed, furniture telling stories from the past and the wonderful places created. The floor in the ground was so very special for us, since the kitchen floor merges into the stone. If someone happens to have the same preference, it’s highly recommended to walk the floor barefoote

This is one of the very best properties on the island. It's right on the coast, has three terraces, is well appointed, and exceptionally large for Stromboli. Many windows keep a nice natural draft going even during the hottest days. A beautiful beach is just a few meters away. It's also close to the trailheads for a nighttime walk up the volcano.

A very cozy, quiet, and beautiful place. But above all, Adriana has been a wonderful host. Thanks to her, we were able to visit everything we wanted, thanks to her tips, ideas, and suggestions.

We had a nice stay at the ranch! We were warmly welcomed and felt comfortable. The place was as described, very cozy. Communication in advance and during the stay was quick and friendly. Only the directions were a bit confusing, but after a few detours we found everything.

The place is stunning and quiet, with a breathtaking view and total privacy. The host is very friendly and kind, and helped with every problem quickly and efficiently (does not speak English but it was not a problem at all). We had a great experience, and hope to come back soon Highly recommended. Suitable for smokers only, as smoking in the cabin is allowed, and it is noticeable

Located about 30 mins by bus outside Dubrovnik it us definitely worth the extra effort. The view from the patio is stunning and there is everything you need provided. If you are looking to escape the manic main areas and don't want an all-inclusive experience this is it. the villa is on a main route direct to the old town and if you buy the dubrovnik pass the bus is free. There is a faily steep walk and a fair few steps to reach the villa so you need to be fit but you can use bolt or taxi to the property. great value for money

Great accomodation in a fantastic location. Host was very friendly on arrival and during our stay. The welcome pack.was a nice touch. More detailed directions for finding the accomodation would have helped.

A lovely stay, I will be back for sure.

We had an amazing time. The place was very clean, views were stunning. Host was attentive and responsive. Care was given to provide many items to ensure we had all the items we needed on our arrival. Extremely thoughtful! We had two young children and were please to have everything we needed for them to lunch on arrival. So many special touches!! We had a hard time leaving, we hope to be back soon! Special thanks to Antonio, we won’t say goodbye but rather arrivederci !

Beautiful villa in the heart of Puglia!!!!! Clean, spacious, perfect location. The pool was fantastic and the outdoor patio was perfect to enjoy during the day and night. Just 15 minutes from Monopoli and Polignano a Mare - super convenient. Tiziana (host) was extremely helpful and responsive when needed. Would highly recommend this place!!!

Fortunate to have 11 nights in the Royal apartment. Suzana looked after us as Jadranka was away. Both though were responsive when needed assistance. As described in the listing with wonderful views across Lapad bay. There are 4 apartments in the complex along with the Hosts accommodation. Romantic apartment is at the top same level as pool area. Next down was the Royal, Harmony a few steps further down and Marine the lowest. All very private and didn’t hear any unnecessary noise from other guests. 61 steep steps from street to apartment door and the shower is in the hydro bath so a bit of a high step there. My wife was a bit hesitant as she has had a hip replacement couple of years ago but found a routine! Using the elevators at nearby More and Kompas hotels to get back from the promenade was a good handy hint! Amenities were good. Some instructions would be helpful especially using the appliances. Info on recycling would be useful too. It was very comfortable and we would recommend i

This is place is great for people who love the beach . Walkable to a lot beach beach club but away from the noise. Host is very responsive and very helpful . Super clean, the Private pool with a view and the bar service is outstanding. Everything is outstanding highly recommended.

We have been to many countries so far. We visited Italy, Croatia, Hungary, Bułgaria, Canada,France but this place is the best . The house is very comfortable, cosy ,well equipped and it has its unique style.The garden is beautifull. We will always remember amazing sunsets and sunrises, the birds drinking water from the pool, the scent od flowers and plants.We used the pool few times a day. It was cleaned regulary. Kostas is a great host. We do appreciate his kindnese, care, generosity and hospitality. He gave us advice what is worth seeng, visiting. He even went with us to the town to do shopping. Kostas showed where we should buy the best vegetables, fruit, jest. Whatever you need he is always for you. Don't hesitate, just come to Dafni and spend gorgeous holidays.

The villa is a gem. The views are unbelievable, the peacefulness was amazing and there are not enough words for the amount of help Diana gave us. Diana waited for us with fruit, charcuterie board, drinks and home made pastry. She set up all the transportation we requested and gave us suggestions of things to do. She even brought us flour at 9:00 pm so we can make crepes. The only thing that you can’t do is walk to places. So, if you are a walker and want a lot of things to do all day, you might want to pick a different villa. We spent time enjoying the views and peacefulness and had time to go sightseeing.

We stayed for 4 nights with our family, children age 4 & 2. We couldn’t have chosen a better place to stay and explore Dubrovnik. The apartment is perfectly located just steps from the old town / city walls, for a short trip this was ideal. Everything is on your doorstep, you can walk everywhere. The house is beautiful and Ivona has done a wonderful job of designing it. It was so well equipped with everything you needed. Michael welcomed us and even arranged our transfer from the airport. They had left us a selection of snacks including bread, milk, jams, coffee pods, wine, beer which was great. The swimming pool area is a bonus and we enjoyed an afternoon swimming and enjoying the views. The whole complex is spotless and so well maintained. I was a little apprehensive as of whether the children would enjoy Dubrovnik, however they loved it and I would recommend. We hope to return one day and if you are considering booking, book early, you will not disappointed. Thank you!

Absolutely stunning Villa. The views are insane. It’s very clean and spacious, in a very peaceful location. You do need a car to access the shops , restaurants and the beach. Gerasimos is very helpful and responsive. We came for a family wedding , my relative stayed in a sister property ( Mystique ) that was also stunning. I would highly recommend these Villas and will definitely return.
