Maria and her husband were excellent hosts. Our favorite part of the stay was the fabulous food that Maria provided (homemade pie, cheese, olives, wine, homegrown persimmons, grapes and pomegranates). After we locked ourselves out of the house, Maria's husband quickly came and let us in, even though the family was having a birthday celebration. The only draw back was that it was so cold! I would highly recommend this rental in the warm season, but would be cautious to rent again during the off season. Just to note, our GPS did not work very well in the area, I would recommend getting directions from Maria before arriving. Thank you again Maria for the wonderful stay!
