Ripazo activities list with curated restaurants, walks, and beaches near a vacation home.

The activities list is a shared, growing guide to the area around your vacation home. Family adds favorites with a photo and a short note. Tip family and friends on what's really worth doing, the experiences you had yourselves, and what shouldn't be missed during a visit.

HOW IT WORKS

How does the activities list work?

  1. 01

    Add the spots you actually like

    Restaurants, walks, beaches, museums. Each entry takes a name, a category, an optional photo, and a few lines on why it's worth the trip.

  2. 02

    Filter what you're after

    Looking for a restaurant or just feel like ice cream? Filters and tags get you to what you want, and where to find it.

  3. 03

    All on one map

    See every suggestion from friends and family on a Google Maps view. One glance and you know exactly where each spot is.

New activity dialog on the Ripazo activities page with the title 'Gelateria Fisotti', category Ice Cream, an Otranto address, and a short description in the rich-text field.Ripazo activities page filtered by the Ice Cream category, with a single Otranto pin on the map and a popup card for Gelateria Artigianale Bella Vista.

By you, for you

Your family's recommendations beat any 1,000-review list.

Built up over time

Every trip adds a few entries. The list gets better every year.

Filter by category

Walking through town and craving ice cream? Filter the list and the map shows which spots are nearby, and which the family swears by.

WHO IT'S FOR

Who uses the activities list?

  • Families building a recommendation archive

    Each trip teaches you something new about the area. The activities list captures it before you forget by next year.

  • Families who occasionally lend the house out

    No more fresh 'here's what to do' email for every group that visits. Friends find the tips right in the overview.

  • Friends and family who know the place best

    Skip the tourist traps. Build your own private guide for the place you come back to every year.

This pairs well with

Photo and video albums

Photos from the trip can link back to the activity that inspired them.

Questions about the activities list

Can we add restaurants and things to do nearby?

Yes. The Activities page holds tips grouped by category (for example: restaurants, ice cream, beaches, hikes, sights, kids' activities, shops, markets, sports, nightlife). Each card can include a name, description, link, and location, plotted on a shared map. In-laws visit, nieces come back, and the tips collection just keeps growing.

Can we like, comment, and react?

Yes. Board posts, photos, activities, and tasks all support emoji reactions (thumbs up, heart, laugh, etc.) and threaded comments, reply to a comment, quote a specific line, mention someone. Admins can turn comments or reactions off per page if you'd prefer a calmer, feed-only experience.

Does Ripazo work on iPhone, Android, iPad, and desktop?

Yes. Ripazo is a responsive web app that works on any modern browser, iPhone, Android, iPad, laptop, desktop. No app to install, no app-store gatekeeping, nothing to update. Add Ripazo to your home screen for an app-like icon and fullscreen experience on mobile.
