A REAL "VILLA VILLAGE" ------- 10% Rabatt im Mai und September -----------

I stayed at this villa together with 7 friends and we had a wonderful time! The large pool is the big highlight of the house. We had a lot of fun in there, it was well-kept (daily cleaning service of the pool) and it is large enough for at least 12 people. In contrast to the bed rooms, which are in my opinion too small for more than 10 people, except for children maybe. The garden was a little bit dried out, I guess the gardener doesn't come after the peak season so it wasn't really possible to lie on the grass. The Wifi wasn't very fast, it was impossible to stream music over it or even use it to read some texts etc. with all 8 people simultaneously. So if you want to have Internet in this villa you should bring some roaming data with your smartphone or tablet. The billiard table was nice, although it is worth to mention that it isn't a pool table but a caram billiard table (so without the pockets). The kitchen was well equipped, we often cooked there when it was too cold to use the even better bbq-area. We also often used the tennis court which was quite nice. The sauna is rather small, max. 2 people can sit in there. In the price of this house the electricity costs aren't included. We knew that from the first so we already knew that we had to pay the bill at the end of our stay. Nevertheless I think the power consumption of the house (pool, sauna, lights, fridges, ...) is quite high so we expected a lower electricity bill in the end. The landlord Nadia was really kind and very uncomplicated.

All in all we enjoyed ourselves a lot in this huge villa and had a wonderful holidays.

Wunderbare zwei Wochen in der Villa Ariete, sehr aufmerksame und hilfsbereite Verwalterin (Nadia). Haus wunderbar gelegen mit phantastischem Pool. Kaum

etwas zu bemängeln, außer dass die gesondert zu zahlende Stromrechnung über 400 Euro ausgemacht hat und das WLAN faktisch nicht funktioniert hat.

Die Villa Ariete bietet für größere Familien ein perfektes Urlaubsdomizil. Großzügige Gartenanlage mit wunderschönen Verweilplätzen unter Bäumen und Palmen laden zum Träumen, Lesen, Quatschen ein. Der Pool lässt keine Wünsche offen - riesengroß mit einer ansprechenden Wassertiefe für Wasserspass pur. Die große Küche mit einem tollen Gasherd ist für jeden Küchenchef eine Riesenfreude. Einzige Wehrmutstropfen: Die Schlafzimmer sind etwas klein ausgefallen und die Betten/Matratzen sind teilweise unbequem hart (wer das halt nicht mag). Der Tennisplatz ist ein Hartplatz und ist teilweise vom Belag her an der Grundlinie brüchig, stört aber den Hobbyspieler nur wenig. Für den Zeitvertreib ist viel Abwechslung und viel Raum geboten.

Alles in allem war es ein wunderschöner Aufenthalt in der Villa Ariete und wir bedanken uns bei Nadja für diese kleine Auszeit.

The Villa is as described big and beautiful. It was well maintained and clean. The owner was friendly and very cooperative.

The swimming pool is really very nice and clean. On one side the pool is shallow for non-swimmers and gets gradually deeper to the other side. The pool is beautifully illuminated at night.

We enjoyed grilling with nice music (Music system with speakers at grill area)

We enjoyed playing Tennis and table tennis. The Billiard table on the top floor is a carom billiard (without pockets), which we didn’t know how to play. But there was a guide on how to play in Italian.

Local grocery store is quite close. The long beach of Grottammare & San Benedetto is beautiful and has a lot of restaurants.

Our electricity consumption was higher than expected. It may be due to our extensive use of air conditioning and keeping the pool filter system on throughout our stay. Nonetheless the total costs were worth the stay.

We have already recommended the Villa to our friends!

We stayed with 3 families (13 in total) for a week, the house was the perfect size and the facilities kept 7 kids entertained for a week without any complaints. Nadia was really helpful and we happily recommend.
