Excellent value for money property
On arrival our property manager only spoke Italian and we sadly cannot speak the language so comms was tricky. The property owner (Marco) was amazing at helping to resolve a few issues though.
First the good things. The house IS lovely and spacious with a really nice outside pool and cooking area.
The beds were all clean and the house was pretty clean and tidy. The 'gardens' are a bit scruffy and untidy but that's not really a problem. Pool area was clean although the pool did have some leaves and bugs in but not surprising as it is open. It did have a good net! It was very cold but we did use it (a cover would have been really useful) - it's not fenced so we had to be careful with our kids but again not an issue.
The open fire outside was good for cooking (had to buy the wood). No gas in the BBQ bottle though.
Quite a lot of mosquitos about still - lots of bites but par for the course really.
We had a few issues especially the rubbish collection or lack of - so confusing - could do with really clear explanations in English (sorry!) on what to put where - we sort of sussed it by about day 5 but almost NO rubbish was ever collected. (Just the plastic went once) Sadly we had to leave a lot of rubbish at the property because it just wasn't clear what to do.
We also had to buy bin bags as only 1 was left - we left a complete roll for the next group! Also only 1 dishwasher tablet so had to buy them too. No welcome pack, not even the 'promised' olive oil. Still very good value.
