Pros:

Невероятные впечатления от проживания в настоящем итальянском палаццо, больше похожем на музей, чем на гостиницу. Старинная мебель, итальянский стиль, огромное количество экспонатов и интересных деталей. Если хотите почувствовать дух Италии, то это лучший вариант. В непосредственной близости отличные рестораны и кафе. Невероятный вид из окон на всю Тоскану и море.

Cons:

Все было прекрасно

Pros:

Personel bardzo pomocny, a sama posiadłość genialnie oddaje klimat Włoch. Teren dookoła bardzo zadbany i czysty. Lokalizacja obiektu świetnie się sprawdza jako "baza" wypadowa do okolicznych miast i atrakcji. Zdecydowanie polecamy i jak tylko nadarzy się okazja chętnie wrócimy.

Ein toller Aufenthalt in einem wunderbaren italienischen Dorf
Pros:

Besonders begeistert waren wir vom wunderschönen Garten mit seinen vielen lauschigen Ecken zum Genießen. Die große Terrasse mit zahlreichen Tischen bot jeden Abend einen traumhaften Blick auf den Sonnenuntergang – ein beliebter Treffpunkt für Gäste, die dort entspannt zu Abend aßen.
Unsere Ferienwohnung war sehr gemütlich und liebevoll eingerichtet. Die Betten waren äußerst bequem, und die Küche ließ mit ihrer umfangreichen Ausstattung keine Wünsche offen. Auch unser Sohn kam voll auf seine Kosten: Der Basketballplatz, die Tischtennistische und die beiden Pools sorgten täglich für viel Freude und Bewegung.
Ein besonderes Dankeschön gilt Signora Serena, die uns mit großer Herzlichkeit willkommen hieß und stets mit wertvollen Tipps zur Seite stand.
Die Villa liegt am Rande eines authentischen toskanischen Dorfes, das wir schnell ins Herz geschlossen haben. Dort genossen wir morgens unseren Espresso in der Bar und ließen den Tag abends gerne bei einer leckeren Pizza ausklingen. Das Meer ist von der Villa aus bereits zu sehen und in nur 15–20 Minuten mit dem Auto erreichbar. Auch die Lage zu sehenswerten Städten wie Lucca, Pisa und Volterra (zwischen 30–60 Minuten entfernt) sowie zu charmanten Dörfern wie Casale Marittimo (5 Minuten) oder Bolgheri (20 Minuten) war für uns ideal. So konnten wir in nur einer Woche viele schöne Orte entdecken.
Die Landschaft mit ihrer einzigartigen Mischung aus Hügeln, Wäldern, Bergen und Meer hat uns tief beeindruckt. Wir können einen Aufenthalt in der Villa Elena von ganzem Herzen weiterempfehlen, und hoffen, eines Tages wieder zurückzukehren. :-)

A lovely location, beautiful village, fabulous local restaurants/bistro & the people were terrific
Pros:

The location was great, as close to everything. The view was terrific from our balcony. The host Serena was really nice & helpful. A lovely touch was a bottle of Prosecco for my Special Birthday.

Cons:

We didn't realise that the apartment would not be cleaned during our stay for a week. We would have liked some washing up liquid & sufficient toilet roll. These are minor things, which didn't spoil our week.

Fantastic Villa and Holiday
Pros:

We loved everything about the place...We received a very warm welcome from Anna and Serena, who were lovely and were available the whole holiday for any advice or practicalities. The Villa itself is a WOW ! it is so peaceful. You feel like you are stepping into history and it has such great views over towards the coast and surrounding areas. The whole place is kept clean, the pool area is brilliant and the gardens are extensive, with lovely little areas to sit and have a barbecue or just pass the time.
The Villa is also just a few steps away from Guardistallo village with its lovely Restaurants and Bars (thoroughly recommend MASA Bistro, great food and cocktails).
We will be recommending Villa Elena to our friends.
Thanks Again for a wonderful stay !

Cons:

There is nothing, not to like...
