From time to time we see questions on how to find local listings, not through AirBnB, VRBO, or booking.com.
We were referred to this Italian website by our host in Lecce last year, and it looks like a good resource for smaller, family-run places. This is from their spring newsletter.

Or, in English if you prefer:

Interesting that the listings are in different order on the two versions.
Makes me want to hop on a plane right now!
