Rent apartments and villas for vacation in Italy recently enjoys increasing popularity among Russians. Which is not surprising: it is an ideal option, economically profitable for travel by a large family or company for a long time. After renting a villa, you can sit comfortably, choosing the right number of separate bedrooms, the size of the living room, kitchen and even a garden. The presence of kitchen or kitchen corner - angolo cottura - at any time will allow you to cook something yourself if you want.
The apartment (with it's appartamenti is always part of the property) can be a private apartment in an apartment building, part of a villa; located in a complex of small cottages, united by one territory - villagio turistico - a tourist village; and also be, for example, in an apart-hotel, etc.
How to choose
First of all, you need to determine the place of rest. In order not to spoil the vacation, it is necessary to take into account several points - the climate, the beach, the proximity of entertainment, shopping. For example, in June the Adriatic coast of Italy is still rainy, the sea is stormy, but on the island of Sicily at the same time it's hot, the sea is warm enough.

It is important that the number of berths, that is, how many people can live in them .For example, one-room apartments consisting of a living room with a kitchenette and a bathroom (monolocale) usually assume two berths .Two-bedroom with one bedroom (bilocale) - 3-4 beds .With two bedrooms and a living room (trilocali) - 4-6 beds and t .д .The number of berths is indicated in the contract, and they can not be exceeded .If guests intend to visit you, you must provide for more "man-places" in advance and warn your agency .
Apartments, as a rule, are equipped with necessary furniture, kitchen accessories, TV, washing machine. If you need air conditioning - be sure to include this in your request.

What to consider
Remember extra costs during the trip .In addition to air tickets and medical insurance, when renting apartments there are such concepts as bail, final cleaning, rent of bed linen .The deposit is taken upon arrival to the apartment, and returns at the end of the holiday, after the apartment is inspected .In case of damage to property, the amount that covers the owner's expenses for repairs is deducted .The cost of final cleaning depends on the size of the apartments, while it is not recommended to leave dirty dishes in the kitchen, food in the refrigerator or garbage - all this can increase the cleaning cost .
If you travel by car or plan to rent, pay attention to whether the price includes a parking space or you will have to provide parking expenses.
Arrivals to apartments are usually carried out from Saturday to Saturday, but in low season or, if the apartment is vacant, other days are possible by agreement. Check in the apartment is usually after 4 pm, check out before 10 am.
Meals are one of the important moments of independent travel. In Italy, a very developed restaurant business, in addition to monuments of culture and history, you will enjoy the taste of various dishes and wines in local restaurants. In grocery stores it is usually not difficult to make purchases, especially since Italian products and dishes are rumored by Russians.
How to get a visa
Renting apartments or other real estate in Italy entitles you to a Schengen visa for the entire period of your stay. But if you already have one or more Italian visas in the last three years, then you can request a multivisa. When renting apartments or villas, the agency provides documents confirming your reservation. With this and other necessary documents, as well as a receipt for the prepayment of the lease, you need to apply to the visa center of Italy.
Please note that the process of booking, arranging accommodation and obtaining a visa is not an instantaneous one. Only for the transfer of money to the account of the owner of the apartment takes a certain time (about 5 days). Also note that when you transfer money abroad, the bank charges about 2% of the payment amount. Visa in the Italian visa center opens within 5-10 days.
Italy as a country is very attractive for independent travel. And no matter where you are, you will always find something new, interesting here.
Buon viaggio!
