Luxury Villas & Handpicked Vacation Homes

Imagine unpacking once and settling into a private residence that feels like home—whether it’s a Tuscan villa, a chic Airbnb loft, a VRBO farmhouse, or a coastal casita—while the region’s treasures unfold just beyond your door. 

Trip For The Books specializes in Luxury Villas & Handpicked Vacation Homes, designed for travelers who crave the perfect mix of comfort, connection, and curated exploration.

Your home base becomes the anchor of the journey: a space where family and friends gather, meals are shared, and stories flow long after the day’s adventures. These trips can be designed as a 7–10 day deep dive in one city—like Florence, Barcelona, or Oaxaca—or as a regional exploration where you day trip from your villa to nearby towns and cultural highlights, such as the rolling vineyards of Tuscany or the coastal villages of the Basque Country.

Food and wine play a starring role. We arrange everything from vineyard tours with private tastings, to hands-on cooking classes in local homes, to chef-prepared meals served right at your villa. By pairing authentic culinary moments with curated excursions, you’ll experience the region in a way that’s as delicious as it is unforgettable.

We handle the details—sourcing the right property with the perfect mix of amenities, coordinating in-home services (chefs, yoga instructors, childcare), and arranging seamless day trips. The result is the best of both worlds: the intimacy and freedom of a private rental, paired with curated experiences that transform an entire region into your playground.

With Trip For The Books, a villa or vacation home isn’t just accommodation—it’s the centerpiece of a journey full of stories you’ll retell long after you’ve returned home.
