This was everything that it promised! The property is amazing. David was a great host and having his sister right next door was a godsend. She was very helpful with tips of places to go and ideas of how to get there. She even helped us order a taxi one morning. We had a fantastic time! It is definitely worth the visit!

The villa was large and spacious, just a note, there is only one shower. That wasn’t clear in the pictures on VRBo. We made it work! There is only one key provided l, we wish there would have been two sets of keys. The gas stove probably needs to be replaced. Only a couple of the burners worked, so we were a little bummed out when cooking. However, the villa is a fortress and absolutely beautiful. If you are not used to recycle restrictions; this will be difficult for some. It is very precise. A car is an absolute must! Otherwise; the villa was outstanding! The owner was available any time I had questions and was very nice.

We enjoyed our stay in this house. Delfina was very nice and helpful. The house is in a lovely quiet location with a great view, everything was comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped. We are glad we booked a car so we enjoyed the local food and wineries around. The streets are very narrow, but we eventually got used to driving. It was one of the best holidays for our family!
