Maria was a perfect hostess, from arrival to last day. Little thoughtful touches as having wine and beer in the fridge and a substantial snack for us at arrival, to tips for visiting off the beaten path places. The house is well located, true waking distance to grocery store, butcher and fruits and vegetable stand. There is a public beach at the end of the street, and Lido Gandoli, reasonably priced and gorgeous water, 5 minutes drive. The pictures don't do justice to the garden, shaded all day around, beautiful flowers, BBQ, washing machine, AC, all clean and working well. Highly recommended.
