    The staff is very helpful and kind. The structure is immersed in a bucolic context between vineyards and olive trees, extremely relaxing. The suite was spacious, very clean and the style of the furniture suited the context, rustic but elegant and welcoming. Full marks for the super comfy bed. Pets are welcome too

    Firstly I wouldn't consider this a, "resort" as described - as our interaction with staff was basically only at check-in and with the grounds-keeper who prepared our eggs at breakfast. No activities nor suggestions of things-to-do were really provided to us. So the whole experience felt rather cold - not at all like other BnB's and equivalent spaces I've stayed in Italy where it was a warm reception with engaging and interested hosts. The location is used as an event space and felt more inclined towards that use. The breakfast as previous guests mentioned was predominately prepackaged items with some lunch-meat ham and cheese. The only hot items were eggs at request and some bread we asked to be toasted. Was disappointing as you'd expect a little more attention to food in the Italian countryside. Felt minimal and uninspired. Even just some local cheeses, parma ham and fresh bread would've gone a long way with this. Although as mentioned above the room was nice, it had no sound-proofing so I could hear everything happening in the room next to mine - down to the television programs being watched and brushing of teeth. When the keeper was grinding something in a mortar and pestle below my room in his kitchen it felt like someone was hammering and doing full-on construction. Additionally it was quite cold (mid April) and I had to keep a space-heater running pretty-much 24/7. Since it's a working vineyard, there is notable noise as a result. eg. loading of boxes of wine onto palettes to be loaded on to a delivery truck during (and in the same room) as our breakfast was not particularly relaxing. And when I'd mentioned early-morning work noise, rather than just saying it would be addressed - the grounds-keeper became dismissive and confrontational. He was generally helpful but I wouldn't expect the type of customer service you'd find at a luxury hotel or BnB.

    Room was spacious and charming with interior design was well considered. The grounds were quite beautiful despite the fact that all the olive trees were being pruned so branches and foliage left un-retrieved affected any potential picture-taking. Although I did not use them, the pool looked inviting and the gym was well-equipped. Easy drive to train-station for Cinque Terre visit. The receptionist at check-in did her best to accommodate my questions and be helpful. Parking was very convenient and value for money was pretty-good considering location and size of room. Place could be really good if just a few things were addressed with customer service and experience.

    No wifi. Bathroom not practical. Air conditioning very weak even with max power. Very hot and wet in the room Bed sheets replaced/changed the 4th night only. Tons of insects/pest.

    The location is very nice and not far from the city. Very nice staff. Classic easy listening soundtracks every breakfast with Burt Bacharach was sublimely beautiful.

    Very poor wifi in the room. Breakfast was very basic. I would include the eggs, fruit and vegetable.

    Very charming place to spend there few days. Very friendly and helpful personal. I like the style of the rooms, very nice equipped. Bed in one apartmant should be bigger. Nice pool. I would recommend to order their local wine and enjoy the time at the pool.

    Unfortunately one same kind of white bread, sweet donut, cakes, and a bottle of orange juice for 3 mornings in row was not how we expected for breakfast, especially when we came with an almost 2 year old toddler. Suggestions to add, soft/hard boiled eggs, plain yogurt, and whole grains toasts, then it will be much healthier options with minimum effort needed still. The A/C in the bedroom and kitchen area didn’t work, so only one in the living room worked for the whole place, but we didn’t know that we should have asked them to have a look, because we misunderstood when we arrived and thought that they told us in Italian that it was the only A/C that worked with our lack of knowledge in Italian language, because the lady who showed us the room (only spoke Italian) switched this one on in the living room, and she didn’t even mention the other A/Cs, with the hot days in early June, it was like an oven. Additionally the cleaner left the windows open during the day, and when we came back in the evening, there were always so many mosquitoes, our son got bitten quite a lot, and we only decided to complain in the 3rd/last evening, because we couldn’t push it through, but then we were well attended given a fan and the new prevent mosquitos plugs to the wall things… It made us learn to complain earlier, so things could have been sorted out faster 😅

    The place looks amazing, the pool was really nice. Nice parking space, lovely staff, big and beautiful room, beautiful view from the bedroom and nice terrace. The owner was very friendly and attentive, even before we arrived. She also recommended very nice places to have dinner, when we asked, but it would be nice, if they could prepare an information folder to include nice places to eat in the surroundings, and that we know if we want to eat dinner at the hotel, we always have to book a day in advance and always no kitchen on Friday. Love the strong water pressure in the bath tub, but unfortunately we doesn’t allow us stand and shower, otherwise the whole bathroom and toilet paper get soaking wet, so we would recommend to add a simple bath curtain between the bath tub and the rest of the bathroom.

    Everything was perfect.

    Really beautiful place in the middle of nowhere. I would really recommend to everybody to come here, relax and enjoy this charming place. On top they have their own winery and you can taste here their wines and buy good bottles as well. People here were really friendly and helpful with everything. The rooms were really big and very nicely designed in the country style. They have very tasty wines.
