Specchia Ranne

Wow, what a beautiful place to stay on the coast of Southern Italy! The property and gardens were absolutely stunning with all of the INCREDIBLE sea views, lots of plants/trees, the rustic buildings and numerous outdoor seating and sunbathing areas. The host was extremely friendly and welcoming on arrival and was extremely responsive throughout the trip with regards to an issue which she immediately sorted for us. The property had everything we needed such as table ware, kitchen utensils, bed linen, towels and even a washing machine if you need one. It was also extremely clean.

We spent 9 wonderful days at Specchia Ranne. The house, the terrace (spectacular view), the spacious garden are all designed with a lot of feeling for nature and the landscape - rustic, simple and yet with that certain something. The furniture in the house is creative, timeless, a wonderful mix of old and new. It was like what we would do ourselves if we owned a pretty little stone house over the sea! Not to forget: Renata's tips for excursions and restaurants, which we often followed - trusting in her good taste - and were never disappointed.

Had an amazing stay at Specchia Ranne. Loved the space inside and out. Inside it’s rustic chic and outdoors there are some lovely areas to enjoy the stunning views. Outdoor shower was refreshing! Renata gave some helpful local tips. We enjoyed visiting the local swimming spots, ‘maldives’ beach and Specchia town which is gorgeous. But otherwise was difficult to leave this peaceful place. Hope to return!

The most peaceful and relaxing holiday we have had. The property is beautifully situated and well equipped. We spent so much time just sitting outside watching the ships on the Adriatic (be aware that the mosquitoes are very active so take strong repellent, especially against the Tiger mosquitoes). Renata very helpful, even looking out for us until our arrival just before midnight. Thank you Renata. We are planning to return next year.

My husband and I had a delicious short stay at Special Ranne at the end of May. Perched high up a hill surrounded by nature and the lull of the sea. We watched the full moon rise over the Adriatic and couldn't help getting up early to watch the sunrise. It's a perfect spot for a secluded retreat, and the cottage is fitted with everything required for a long stay. Renata the owner was incredibly helpful, gave a great list of useful local information and was flexible with our check out time. We didn't want to leave! The house isn't suitable for people with mobility issues, but otherwise perfect.

A very special place - just booked again for next year. Highly recommend. Renata was the perfect host, thanks again Kate, Charlotte & Clare.

Private and quiet retreat above the sea. Once you enter your very own holiday parc through the gate from the main road and climb the stoney path to reach the main house. Perfect sea views, complete privacy and so very quiet. House has all it needs both in and outside! Many places to read, sit, dream away and watch the sea and the sky. Do not expect sandy beaches close by. Good shopping, restaurants can be found in Tricase, 10 minutes by car. We loved our 2 week stay and do recommend Specchia Ranne for quiet lovers without mobility issues.

We loved staying here , booked to stay one week but extended for another week It's secluded , quiet, private , fabulous views , interior space very comfortable , Many outdoor spaces to retreat to . Renata is a wonderful charming woman , told us of the best local places to eat , to visit , to swim. We will return here for sure.
