Two of us stayed for a week. The property was ideal, in a lovely location, with a large swimming pool to swim and relax. Easy parking and nice patio area to sit around. Additional benefits include deli and restaurant very close and both excellent. Our host was very helpful and kind. Thank you Diana. We thought an excellent base to explore, but also a lovely place to chill, as well

Iano - Podere Le Monache A huge thank you to Diana the property manager - super helpful and lovely to deal with. The Property was a real surprise in such a great way, the garden and pool provided a lovely relaxing place that we were looking for whilst the apartment was functional. The small village of Iano was a super suprise in a great way too - fabulous restaurant! We highly recommend and will be back.
