Vito and Luigina are the nicest hosts in the world. They were very friendly about check-in, and they gave us a very patient and lovely tour of the grounds and vegetable garden even though we do not speak Italian. The apartment itself is very clean, with good AC and a comfortable bed, and a well-equipped kitchen. Vito was very responsive, arriving to the property right away when we needed hand soap and when the power in the “zone” went out unexpectedly. For that night, Vito and Luigina offered us either an extra night or a refund, with very little fuss.
While the hosts were fantastic and the property was beautiful, just a few caveats to future guests. First, the hot water runs out rather quickly. Second, there is an environmental education center next to the property that the owners rent out for parties in the summer. The parties used amplified music. We did not feel comfortable using the outdoor shower in light of the parties, and the noise prevented us from using the outdoor space. When the music is at a normal volume, the apartment offers some noise protection, but the sound carried the second night. Vito and Luigina were very kind regarding the disruption, but this part of the experience was a bit disappointing.
