About this property

RupeSuiSassi is a typical house of the Sassi of Matera with a splendid view.

The RupeSuiSassi holiday home welcomes you to Matera, formerly a UNESCO heritage site for its Sassi and now the European Capital of Culture 2019. We have chosen to transform our house into a holiday home to welcome the many travelers who wish to visit Matera with its Sassi and the surrounding area, rich in natural and historical-artistic beauties of prehistoric origins, of traditions and legends stratified over time, of products and typical dishes like bread. Entering the house you will feel enveloped in a muffled dimension thanks to the visible tuff vault, the handmade terracotta bricks floor, the majolica tiles. You will then be projected into a surreal dimension thanks to the breathtaking view that can be enjoyed from the terrace of the Sassi kitchen and in front of the Parco della Murgia Materana. The apartment is on two levels with two double bedrooms (each on one level and one of the two can be double) and two bathrooms (each adjacent to the bedroom). Upon entering there is a large open space with a living room equipped with a comfortable sofa bed that can accommodate two more people and a kitchen made entirely of masonry with colored majolica tiles. The kitchen is equipped with everything (pots, dishes, dishwasher, coffee machine, etc.). In the house there is also a washing machine and free wifi. The apartment cannot be reached by car because it is located in a small alley where cars are not allowed to circulate, which are left in a street a few meters from the house. To reach the structure, moreover, there are some stairs to climb that you will also find at the entrance to the apartment. After this short and pleasant walk that already immerses you in the spirit of the silence of the Sassi, you can admire the beauty of the house and the landscape it offers.

Magical Matera
We’ve had an amazing time in Matera and RupeSuiSassi was perfect for exploring this unique medieval city. The view from the kitchen balcony is gorgeous – the panorama of the Sassi together with Gravina canyon is unforgettable and one can spend hours just taking this in, especially at night when Matera is lit-up against the night sky. The spacious apartment is in excellent shape located in the original old-style dwelling, with high arched stone ceiling and multiple levels (beautiful and well stocked kitchen, cozy living room, two bedrooms and two full roomy bathrooms + cave utility room) – the overall feeling and appointment of the apartment is very inviting and homey. Apartment’s location is excellent: it is not in the middle of tourist locations (and is very quiet), but you can walk anywhere within the Old City in 30 minutes or less. In addition, there is a parking garage (that we’ve fully utilized) within a 3 minute walk with plenty of space and fairly inexpensive (removed all worries about getting a ticket). Communication with Daniela was great and self-check in/out was very easy. Daniela also provided excellent directions on finding the parking garage, as well as the apartment itself (finding things in Matera can be tricky). Overall a wonderful experience and I would highly recommend this specific VRBO location and Daniela as a host. [P.S. Summer is very hot, and there are only fans in the apartment – so account for this accordingly]

Great stay!
The location of this apartment was excellent, just steps from the sassi. Parking garage, full service grocery, and many shops and restaurants within a 5-10 minute walk. Apartment was spacious and equipped with most items; very clean. Washer and dryer. Owner was responsive to any questions or needs, would stay again.
