Lake side joy
Overall this is a fabulous property with an idilic location and plenty of space for a large group of people. The garden/ pool space is lovely directly overlooking the lake. Parts of the house could do with some tlc particularly the kitchen. Keeping the house secure was quite difficult with so many external doors and locking mechanisms. Keeping up with the different rubbish collections was hard and could really do with some proper big bins to store various types of rubbish till bin day. We used the chef service a couple of nights which was fabulous - two lovely ladies who did a great job. Overall a lovely holiday.

Tolles Haus mit riesigem Garten, aber teils renovierungsbedürftig
Die Buchung und Abwicklung hat perfekt geklappt. Das Haus ist sehr groß und durch die Trennung in 3 Wohnungen hat man, wenn man mit mehreren Familien anreist, immer etwas Privatsphäre. Das Wohnzimmer in der Hauptwohnung ist riesig und bietet viel Platz für alle. Mit 13 Leuten und Hund sind wir dort super zurechtgekommen, es war auch immer genug Geschirr usw. da. Der Garten ist toll, komplett eingezäunt, direkt am See, ausgestattet mit vielen gemütlichen Sitzgelegenheiten. Die Autos können auf dem Hof und unter dem Dach sicher geparkt werden. Anzumerken ist, dass der Fitnessbereich nicht mehr vorhanden ist. Außerdem sind die Möbel im Haus teils alt und besonders die Matratzen teils sehr platt gelegen. In einigen Räumen hatten wir sehr viele verschiedene Insekten, was in älteren Häusern in der Region ja aber auch normal ist. Ansonsten war alles sehr sauber als wir ankamen. Die meisten Innentüren (auch zu den Bädern) kann man nicht abschließen, was für uns nicht schlimm war, für andere aber ein wichtiger Hinweis sein könnte. Wir hatten einige Probleme mit der Heizung, jedoch hat Novella sich immer schnell darum gekümmert und war sehr kulant. Die Lage des Hauses ist eher ruhig, der Hafen ist klein. Es lohnt sich zu Fuß den Rocca di Manerba zu erklimmen. Nach Sirmione fährt man ca. 1 Stunde. Insgesamt hatten wir - auch dank des Hauses - einen ganz tollen, entspannten Urlaub mit der ganzen Familie.

alles war super der Service erstklassig
Wir waren mit 8 Erwachsenen und 4 Kindern in dem Haus und alle waren rundum zufrieden. Die Lage ist super, wenn auch der Zugang in den Gardasee ein wenig schwierig war. Auch der Pool war super und immer top gepflegt, es machte allen Spaß dort zu schwimmen und toben. Dieses Haus kann man ohne bedenken weiter empfehlen, auch wenn es hier und dort einige Abnutzungserscheinungen aufweist.

Well functioning property for us (10 adults+2 kids) .
The property was well equipped, for example playtools for children for the pool, a brandnew bbq device, big garden and the possibility to also swim in the lake. Living/diningroom large enough and the design touch is nice. The scenery was marvellous. The position is optimal for tours with cars to the whole Lago area and surroundings. The wifi fuctioned not in the start for 20% of the handies but after rebooting it was ok. In the headkitchen, when using the oven and the dishwasher at the same time the fuse was triggered. Because the fuse was an automatic one it was possible to put it on after a while. Some ant-problems we experienced, also in the head-kitchen A drying rack for the towels and swimming suits would be a good equipment A big thanks to Christina Ayler and Novella Battani for their professional , promt and friendly managing of upcoming questions during all weekdays!

Sehr schönes Anwesen, alles entspricht den Angaben; die Einrichtung möchte ich als gut, aber keineswegs als luxeriös bezeichnen. Das Anwesen kann in der Tat mit 12-13 Personen bewohnt werden. Angebot an Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind sehr gut. Jederzeit zu empfehlen.

Nice stay in Villa Elena
Hello, many thanks that we could stay in your nice Villa. The support of Mrs. Novella was very very good. The garden is a dream and we enjoyed the vacation. Nevertheless some points we have to claim: The electric of the house should be checked because if you use the oven and the dishwasher or the water-coker, the fuse is going out. The villa was very cold and we had to ask for heating. Novella helps directly but not all radiators are working. Furthermore we wonder a little bit, that we have to pay an extra fee for that ... Furthermore the bathrooms has to be cleaned better ( mold ) and renovated because this is neccessay ! Finally beside the main sleeping room, the other sleeping rooms are a little bit wet and all the closed became a little bit wet. Maybe from time to time the Villa and this rooms should be revealed. Nevertless, as said, we enjoyed the stay and wish you all the best. Family Heck from Germany
