This was a beautiful place built by an authentic italian straight from Italy. I would sit on the terrace or in the hot tub and enjoy the view. He even left wine and snack in the room. Comfy large bed. Everything we needed for a great stay.

Our stay in a charming part of Maurizio's large, roomy villa was wonderful. We felt completely private, but had help close at hand. Maurizio is a gracious and generous host. The villa is an easy drive to good restaurants, downtown, and Siesta Key. As others have written, being in the villa combines a trip to Italy with the pleasures of Sarasota.

This place was very clean! My wife is very picky and she was pleased as well. We didn't use the cooking facilities but as was noted elsewhere and in the description, the food prep and dining area is outside. In Florida, that's not a problem. Our biggest surprise were two cats that wandered the area around the pool. While we both like cats, I am very alergic and may have given second thought to staying there had known in advance. As I said though it was very clean inside. The cats did approach the outside eating area while we were there. When they found us uninterested, they moved on. A deal breaker? No. But certainly something to be aware of.
