Chiara's home is an idyllic spot. You walk through the front gate to find yourself in a quiet, charming paradise. The villa was neat and tidy and there was a lovely platter of fresh fruit waiting in the centre of the table to greet us after a long trip. Chiara was very helpful in suggesting interesting restaurants and sights and beaches worth visiting. We followed many of her suggestions, but we were also just as happy to stay put and enjoy the pool and deck and the quiet surrounding of Chiara's beautiful home. Chiara is the perfect hostess-friendly and attentive, but not overwhelmingly so. We felt like we had a private villa all to ourselves the entire length of our stay.
