Italian apartments rental: do not look for hotels, live in real houses

Added: 03/03/2006

When a child, you used to read about brave knights and beautiful ladies and dreamt to visit the country, in which every street is full of history and romance. Italy is the place where tales come alive, where local people are as hot as the sun, always ready for adventures. This country has so rich and breathtaking history that no one can be bored when listening. It is a native land of the best painters, architects and composers, who have left the deepest imprint in the world's culture.

Nowadays your dream is close to becoming true.  You have vacations and insuperable wish to spend them in Italy, under the high southern sky and hot sun.  The first and foremost question to solve is accommodation.  Of course, hotel rooms are the most easily accessible, but if you prefer privacy and calmness they are not for you.  So, you will, most probably, decide to rent a house, because apartments rents give you the unique privacy and peaceful rest.  But the experienced travelers advise you not to hurry and try first a short-term rental in some cheap place with the purpose to get acquainted with the local transport system, to find the centres of social life and just become accustomed to the style and rhythm of life in the city.  And after this you will easily find the very that place, which will suit you most of all with its location, rest facilities and amenities.


Apartments rental service in Italy is somehow different if compared with that in other countries.  First of all, Italians prefer to rent out their apartments or houses to foreigners.  The reason is national law, which makes additional problems for owners, who do not want to rent their houses any more or have delays with payments.  If you are from Italy yourself the law protects your interests and it is not very easy to make you leave the house, so the owners are always interested in foreigners, especially if there is a hope that you will expand the term of your apartments rental for extra two or three years.  Italy, as Europe in general, is not a very cheap country and the prices of accommodations are rather high.  They usually depend on the proximity to the centre of the town, on the size of the town, on a number of vacationers you take with you and some other factors, but you can really find a suitable house with a moderate price, which will be perfect for your budget and won't exceed the expenses planned. 


As for types of accommodations you can rent, there are several of them.  The cheapest and most comfortable accommodations for people, who prefer not to use somebody's things, are unfurnished apartments.  But if you are planning to use unfurnished apartments rental it is to remember that they are absolutely empty inside.  If you are a lucky person you will find a sink in the kitchen, but all the other furniture is to be provided by you.  A positive side of such accommodation is that you can do anything with the space you rent, for example, make the decor remind you home.  Some people use partially furnished apartments, with furniture in the kitchen.  At worst, you may sleep on the floor for some time, if necessary.  And for some people it will be even more interesting, unusual and romantic than a traditional bed with a bedside-table and lamp.


And the most popular and comfortable type of apartments rental is furnished accommodations, which offer you everything you need to move into and live.  Just pay money, sign the papers - and all tables, sofas and shelves are to your service.  After all, you won't take all your furniture with you for a week vacation somewhere abroad, will you?  Rent of apartments gives you a beautiful possibility to live in a real home during your vacations.  Not in hotel rooms, where people come and leave every day, but in your own accommodation with all amenities belonging only to you and your family.  What can be better than come to another country and find a friendly, waiting-for-you house with attentive staff, perfect location and moderate price?  So, don't look for something else, the choice is obvious - apartment rentals for privacy and good rest.
