We had a perfect three-week stay at Giuseppe's property in Santa Maria al Bagno. He and Mari were excellent hosts. We were greeted promptly -- and with snacks and wine! The check-in and check-out processes were quick and easy. Giuseppe provided us with great recommendations for restaurants in in town. The location of the property is perfect: a block from the sea and near many different kinds of beaches . It's in close proximity to everything we needed. The house is modern and nicely furnished. Everything was clean and comfortable. The house was easy to keep cool (important in August); and we really liked the layout of the rooms. We did quite a bit of cooking and found the kitchen to be well-stocked. One of our favorite features is the patio. It's really cute and right off the kitchen, which is convenient cooking and serving outside. We've stayed in many Airbnb properties and this is our favorite. It's the perfect combination of outstanding host, very pretty property, convenient location in a charming resort town, and close to many sights and outdoor activities. We rented a car but there would be plenty to do without one. Highly recommended!
