I had a wonderful time. The sites, the food and especially the family who operated the villa were very special. It was very magical. Thank you again Nik, Judy and family. Jenna

A unique and heartfelt experience! The Villa itself is beautiful with spacious and clean rooms. The family who owns the villa are warm and welcoming. Food was very good and plentiful. Yoga in the morning was a beautiful start to days filled with well-planned and interesting experiences in the area. The tour leaders allowed each of us to find our own rhythm during the week. Overall, a wonderful and memorable experience!

The view from Casavecchia was lovely. However, a few things were not as expected. I was not aware the food served at Casavecchia would be vegetarian (eg, lentils and rice were among the meals served). Apparently, this was in the small print. I think this should have been highlighted to the guests in a more upfront manner. There was no espresso coffee at the Villa - another disappointment, especially for Italy! Furthermore, Casavecchia was located too remotely to enable easy access to alternative food options. I should have looked at the location and read the fine print. The daily excursions were good, but I would have preferred an option to go out at night. Other guests seemed to enjoy themselves, but it wasn't what I was expecting. Next time, I will ask questions about the food and drink available and check the access to facilities around the location. Lesson learned.
