Spacious and Inviting Vacation House in Spello, Umbria

This property is incredible, the extra touches left by property manager/owner were greatly appreciated!! We were in Spello to celebrate our Anniversary and it was truly one to remember! Perfect location and delightful home in a Magical little medieval village. I highly recommend!

My wife and I spent a month in Spello at this house, having never rented a place for that long. Any worries that we had were answered perfectly. The few problems that arose early in our stay (plumbing and lighting problems, malfunctioning dishwasher) were handled with dispatch my the charming house manager Anna. The location of the house was ideal, close to parking when we rented a car and walking distance to the train when we chose that. Spello is magical with its old stone buildings and peaceful, at least when the tourist tide subsides each evening The house itself is very comfortable, well-equipped, with extraordinary care taken in the renovation of the old building. I was especially impressed by the windows - the soundproofing was amazing on what is a busy road and the hardware was great. We've rented many vacation homes over the years and this was easily one of the very best we've ever stayed in. It was the perfect choice for an extended stay. Grazie mille!

Spent 5 nights in Spello. The house is on the main street of Spello. You are walking distance to restaurants and shops. The house was clean with two showers. The bed in main bedroom was super comfortable. We had no problems with our stay. Spello is a wonderful spot to tour Umbria.

Oh you are going to love this home! Spello is a very special spot, great for a short on long stay and this home is like the icing on the cake. Simply wonderful, surprising lovely throughout and absolutely pristine. Equipped with everything you could need, modern, fresh restoration of a classically styled Italian residence, with restaurants, cafes, shopping and more right outside your front door. Communication was faultless with the property owner and free parking was a short five minutes away, which is amazing in a popular Hill Town. Spello itself is truly magical and well located to so many of the must see Umbrian sites. Yes this property is a few dollars more than some in the area, but it is in my mind it is well worth the owner’s ask. Lots of space, beautifully decorated right down to the stunning bed linens. Fabulous find, truly special.. book it now!

Desiree’s has put much thought and care to make her guests feel special and pampered. The beds have luxurious pressed embroidered linen. There was a welcome basket of olive oil, bread, jam, honey, cookies, etc. The home has every modern amenity and yet still maintains a warm rustic Italian feel. The location close to the bottom of the town, makes it very convenient. Desiree is a good communicator. Her detailed instructions on the use of appliances etc, was very welcome, as we do not speak Italian and we’re unfamiliar with how to use Italian appliances. The washer and dryer (very rare to find) was a huge plus. Nothing was lacking, everything was “perfecto”! We have already recommended this home to friends and hope to return in the future. Spello is a perfect home base, beautiful with a small village feel. Thank you Desiree, we love your home.

This lovely apartment is located in the middle of a beautiful small Italian village that captures the heart of Italian culture and life. The renovations bring utilities to contemporary comfort, but leave the rich heritage of ancient Italian life intact. The location is within easy walking distance of all the small shops and eating accommodation , and is just a short walk from the train station, making travel to other locations a breeze. The perfect place to experience the rich history and immerse yourself in real Italian culture.

The house was exactly as described by he owner. Everything you needed was available. Lovely welcome gifts were well received. The thing to keep in mind when booking is that you are in a hill town and while everything is close at hand it is up hill pretty much all the time, either there or back. Also if traveling by car, walking 5 to 7 minutes to the public lot each time you want to travel out is a little bit of a pain. Parking is at a premium in Spello. The town itself is charming and close to eveything in Umbria, Assisi is minutes away as is Spoletto, Perugia, Todi amd even the coast and Florence are drivable. The house as I said was wonderful, tastefully decorated and charming. We will consider it again for another stay.

We couldn't have been more pleased with Desiree's home in Spello. The house itself was perfect, simply and beautifully decorated, in an ancient building that was totally updated. New kitchen appliances and everything needed to cook a full meal. Very comfy beds. Icing on the cake were the exquisite bed linens, embroidered and trimmed in lace. Great location, where we had nearby access to everything we needed--grocery, bakery, coffee, restaurants, pharmacy, bank, market, etc. We loved waking and walking to our favorite Bakery for coffee and croissants and picking up torte and salami at the grocer. The town of Spello is magical--doorways are decorated with a mass of flowers and the streets are perfectly clean. There are also amazing restaurants, friendly and helpful Umbrians, beautiful walks, a museum, great shopping, and events like the Infiorate that we were lucky enough to participate in. Spello is a perfect base for exploring the whole of Umbria, and we did that throughout our month there. I can't imagine a lovelier vacation than our time in Spello. Thank you Desiree and Anna!

Very clean. Everything in great working condition . Owner very attentive and left very good instructions. Liked this property a lot.

We loved our time in Spello staying in this beautiful home. It was the highlight of our Italian vacation and I can’t recommend it highly enough. The home has been renovated with style and elegance and the hosts have taken care to provide everything you need. The beds are supremely comfortable, the linens are exquisite, and the kitchen and bathrooms are lovely. Spello is a charming hilltop town in Umbria with great restaurants and shops and its winding alleys are adorned with a gorgeous array of flowers and plants. It’s a gardener’s paradise that we had a hard time leaving but know that we will definitely come back again. Desiree and Giampaolo are wonderful hosts with a beautiful home and they make it easy to have a dream vacation. Your expectations will be exceeded in every way and you won’t leave disappointed. Your only regret will be that you didn’t stay longer!
