Our stay at this rental was everything I had hoped it would be! The backyard was the perfect place to sit and relax and chat with family members that hadn't seen each other in a while. The swimming pool and hot tub were refreshing. The neighborhood was great for walking and sightseeing, with beautiful mansions to admire. The living quarters are very clean and modern. The bedrooms are huge! The kitchen area is pretty small, and the refrigerator doesn't have a freezer section, but that wasn't a problem since our plan was to eat simply without a lot of time spent cooking. Paolo, who lives in the larger part of the home, is a perfect host: he was available when we needed him but let us enjoy the beautiful oasis of a backyard without feeling like we were intruding on his privacy. He even shared some of the bounty from his organic garden with us! We (adults and children) highly recommend this place for a quiet and relaxing vacation.
