Castello Izzalini

The resort and its setting

Castello Izzalini sits above the Tiber Valley in the hilltop town of Todi, one of Umbria's best-preserved medieval and Renaissance towns. This is an independently owned, RCI-affiliated property, meaning weeks here can potentially be exchanged through RCI, as well as used directly or rented out. The resort's architecture draws on Todi's historic character, and the accommodation is designed to be comfortable for self-catering stays while keeping something of that older, stone-built atmosphere. It's a quieter kind of timeshare — more about the town and the landscape than about resort facilities.

Todi and the surrounding area

Todi itself is within walking distance of the resort and is worth treating as an attraction in its own right, with the Piazza del Popolo, narrow medieval streets, and a genuinely lived-in historic centre rather than a tourist set piece. Beyond the town, this part of Umbria is wine country: the Sagrantino di Montefalco and Grechetto producers are within easy driving distance, and many visitors base a week here around vineyard visits and long lunches at family-run trattorias. Lake Corbara is close by for a change of pace, Assisi and the Basilica of St. Francis make a natural day trip, and Perugia, the regional capital, is within reach for those who want a bigger medieval city with museums and a livelier evening scene. It's a region suited to travellers who want to slow down rather than rush from sight to sight.

Selling or renting a week here

If you own a week at Castello Izzalini and want to sell or rent it out, you can list it yourself on BidMyTimeshare.com as a private, owner-to-owner resale — there's no agency involved. You set your own asking price, write your own listing, and interested buyers or renters contact you directly through the platform. We charge sellers a one-time listing fee and take 0% commission on the sale, so what you agree with a buyer is what you keep.

Because Castello Izzalini is independent rather than part of a large branded chain, any resale transfer is handled through the resort's owners' association or management company, not through a corporate resale desk. Before agreeing a price with a buyer, ask the resort's management directly for the current transfer (or resale) fee, whether the association holds a right of first refusal on resales, and the current annual maintenance fee — these details aren't standardised and can change, so get them in writing rather than assuming. Be clear with buyers about what is and isn't included: a resale buyer takes on the deeded or contractual week itself and the obligation to pay future maintenance fees, but any accumulated loyalty points, prior RCI deposits, or resort credits generally do not transfer with the sale.

What renters and buyers tend to look for

Renters interested in a week at Castello Izzalini are usually drawn by the location rather than resort amenities — proximity to Todi's old town, easy access to Umbrian wine country, and a base for day trips to Assisi, Lake Corbara and Perugia. If you're renting out your week, mention the season clearly, since Umbria's cultural calendar and weather both shift noticeably between spring, high summer and autumn. Buyers considering a resale purchase should ask about the unit size, typical week allocation, and whether the RCI affiliation is active and in good standing, since that affects exchange options down the line.

Practical notes

The nearest airport is Perugia, around 35 miles away, with a hire car or regional transport needed to reach Todi. Spring through autumn (April to October) is generally the most practical window, both for weather and for Todi's cultural events, and it's also when demand for exchanges and rentals tends to be strongest, so owners renting out a week should plan listings and bookings well ahead of the summer and Italian holiday periods.
