Villa Di Giorgi

Wonderful place to stay. Helpful hosts, lovely setting. The entrance hall area is quite quirky and nicely decorated with books, some games and pictures. Also a great breakfast to start the day. We’d recommend it

Unable to actually stay due to covid and then losing the money from the voucher as the owner stopped responding. It feels as though he stole our money. The owner responded a few months ago when he saw my Google review and accused us of lying saying we never booked with them but once I sent the evidence he again stopped replying to my emails. I've sent him pictures of the booking etc so he clearly can see that we had a booking with them. I even have the expired voucher. We asked him to book us in on any date in a month and we would have booked other hotels either side of his but he never responded. We were due to stay on 6th July 2020 to 9th July 2020. Covid prevented this. We booked 5 hotels. 4 returned our money with no issue at all. Salvo however gave us a voucher after ******* contacted him as we were unable to contact via watsapp or email as he never responded to us. We were fine with the voucher as we would have still booked a new date. But they didn't respond when we sent emails or watsapp messages asking to book dates as the voucher expired after 12 months. As a result we paid £319.77 which we never got back. Guessing the hotel got that cash and kept it. Im sure the hotel is nice but the fact we paid £319.77 and never was able to get this back due to covid and the owner not wanting to refund us i feel was very unfair, especially when all 4 other accommodations we booked for our trip returned our money with no questions asked. For that reason the hotel deserves a 1 star review from myself as we have been treated very unfairly and have gifted the owner a good amount of cash for nothing.

We stayed in this lovely villa for two nights and wish we could have stayed longer. We didn`t have a seaview but our room was well-equipped and spotlessly clean. There are lovely gardens and a swimming pool and other areas to sit and read in peace. Breakfast was superb with lots of choice - many different fruits, cheeses, meats, cakes, pastries, juices etc. The only drawback to be noted is that it is a steep downhill walk of about a kilometre into town and, of course, uphill on the return and it gets VERY steep once you turn off the main road. This was not a problem for us as we are used to walking but some people might find it difficult.

We had a good room with a large balcony and sea view. The whole place was very clean and we had a good breakfast. The owners are very helpful - Salvatore speaks excellent English and gave us lots of good information about the area and restaurants. The short drive up the access road is steep, but not a problem in first gear! You are a short walk from the town and its restaurants.
