VILLA NAZZA

We liked the house, pool, air-conditioning, garden, and rooms. There is a colony of feral cats that was a plus for us. The view is nice where it is not interrupted by a neighbouring building, especially towards the west at sunset. It was quiet while we were there. The house uses solar energy to heat the water (although it is limited to 800L a day). The nearby lake is nice to swim in.

Tap water is not potable, which we did not know ahead of time (arsenic levels exceed European norms). Since no filter is provided, you have to buy bottled water at a supermarket. The expectation, therefore, is that you drive a car. If you are on foot, you'll have to carry the water up a steep hill (the cost of having a view), daily. There is no sidewalk at first and cars drive fast in a blind curve, which is freaky and dangerous at night. The bedding is synthetic. This may not be a negative point for you. The washing machine is violently loud, sounding like someone wants to tear down the house and moving and rotating severely during a wash.

Exceptional house with a nice little pool. We felt very welcome by the hostess who was very helpful and inviting. We were there in July and the A/C worked perfectly when it was too hot to sleep. Beds were comfortable and everything was very clean and well kept. This house is perfect for a relaxing family vacation. It is located in a quiet and secluded area but only a very short walk (5-10 minutes) from the small village where it’s possible to find a lot of nice restaurants.

We liked everything! No complaints at all.

Clean and modern appliances

Wonderful villa, fantastic location 15 minute walk into town, 5 minutes to beach. Excellent hosts who were very responsive to any issues.

No hot water for one day but hosts did all they could to rectify it.

Lovely swimming pool, nice outdoor area, comfortable beds, air conditioning, nice big TV, host let us check in early as we had a wedding to attend.

A few things to mention. Hot water didn’t work in one of the bathrooms upstairs so used downstairs shower. Back door hard to close. Had to request extra items because not enough, for example only 2 cups/mugs for a group of 6. Also have to mention we got locked out complex 2am after returning from wedding as remote control for security gates didn’t work, it was very scary but luckily host was contactable, helped us and promptly replaced remote control the next day.

This exceeded our expectations, the house is amazing with a lovely garden and pool which overlook the lake. There's also plenty to do in the area, the lake is just a short walk away and perfect after a hot day in Rome. There's plenty of food and drink choices all within walking distance. It's a great house with lovely hosts, we didn't want to leave.

Nothing, Perfetto

Lovely light and airy house

Host attempted to charge us extra for cleaning fee in cash the day before arrival. Original listing details showed 5 bedrooms and on arrival only 4 bedrooms plus air-con not working in 4th bedroom. This had a drastic impact on our stay and host very aggressive about the lack of 5th bedroom that was originally advertised (and removed after our complaints). There has been no refund/ compensation for the lack of 5th bedroom. The host was very hostile when discussing this. The electrics cut out constantly if you use the oven. The host is aware of this as she showed us the fuse box on check-in. On the last day the water stopped working, we believe this was a problem for the village not just our villa, the host did bring us water bottles but we could not use any facilities. This house should have been a great spot but because of the problems with the 5th bedroom missing plus the lack of aircon in the 4th it really ruined our experience. We were a group of 4 couples plus one single girl and we did not have enough bedrooms/ privacy. It was the end of July and extremely hot. The air-con also did not work properly in the communal areas. Finally, they do not take payment on card as advertised, the day before our arrival they sent a WhatsApp message requesting full payment via a bank transfer. We refused and they told us we had to pay cash on arrival. I would not have given such a poor rating had the host and booking attempted to resolve the matter and compensate us for the missing bedroom and the lack of use of the 4th bedroom but I have been met with aggression from the host and no appropriate response from booking. Booking instead reach out to the host for a decision on if compensation is owed. I am disgusted at the experience and would not recommend this villa or booking again. I strongly recommend going through other companies such as Airbnb who from experience look after guests who experience problems.

The house was amazing. Perfect for a get away and very close to the village. The hosts were fantastic and sent over heaps of information before the trip.
