All our homestay hosts have detailed profiles, including photos of themselves, the room where you will stay, their home and the local community, as well as references and evaluations from previous guests. And because we want you to have a great experience on your homestay, all our hosts share their interests and hobbies on their profiles. So you can find one with similar interests and use our secure messaging system to get to know them before you book.
During the stay with the Italian homestay family you or your child or teenager will be completely immersed in the language, culture and daily family life. Many homestay families will also help you to organise an Italian course, without the need for an expensive residential language school.
Some Italian teachers also provide homestay accommodation and teaching in their own homes. If you are interested in learning Italian by staying in your teacher’s home, please click here.
The epicentre of the Roman empire and the birthplace of renaissance, Italy was and still is a very important and powerful European country. Only being united as a country in 1861, its 20 regions are more akin to individual states with different dialects, traditions, architectural styles and specialist cuisines. Of course Italian food is known the world over but nowhere is it better enjoyed than authentically in Italy itself.
From the Colosseum and pantheon in Rome to the Duomo and Michelangelo’s ‘David’ sculpture in Florence, the country has an unparalleled amount of artistic treasures. The natural landscape of Italy is also extraordinarily diverse ranging from the Northern snow capped alps to the Southern sun drenched Amalfi coast. Life in Italy is very much about living well and indulging in the finer things, whether that be sipping a freshly ground coffee in a quaint cafe in Venice or shopping until you drop in the fashion capital of Milan.

Lingoo homestay host profiles are diverse. They range from traditional and single-parent families to single adults and retirees. But all of them believe that learning a foreign language should be fun and full of the discovery that classroom settings simply cannot offer. They will help you learn and practise the language in everyday situations and while indulging your hobbies. Some hosts can also arrange to pick you (or your child) up at the airport or station and transport you there again when you return home. The Lingoo contract is also there to help unaccompanied children pass through immigration.
We ensure every homestay is safe, secure and great value for money. The identity of every host is checked personally by the Lingoo validation team before they can register with us. Together with references and visitor evaluations, contracts for each reservation, and support from the Lingoo team when misunderstandings occur, we ensure that your homestays are the ideal way to improve your language skills. Even your deposit is covered by our cancellation rules.
