Reviews of Villa Antica Sosta

We enjoyed our stay very much!

April 2024 - We enjoyed our stay very much! It was a beautiful, peaceful setting where our family could enjoy the beautiful weather in such a nice front and back yard. The kids loved the pool and trampoline!

September 2023 - We enjoyed our stay at Villa Antica Sosta. We were a group of 6 - two couples and two singles. We had plenty of space to share and for privacy. One bedroom on the first floor with a full bath and four bedrooms upstairs with two full baths. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking meals at home, and we dined outside on the patio overlooking the pool for lunches and dinners.

We enjoyed the pool and lounging under the olive trees. A couple of local cats graced us with their presence from time-to-time, but never let us get too close.

The house setting was quiet with the exception of Saturday night, when there seemed to be a few more cars going by the house than all of the other days.

The booking experience with Summer In Italy was very positive. We appreciated the information provided in advance; it was very thorough in preparing us for our stay.

Excellent

September 2023 - Villa Antica Sosta was perfect for what we wanted.

The appliances were relatively new. The plumbing, the electric, the kitchen and bathrooms were clean and efficient. Screens on all the windows for those concerned about mosquitoes. Plenty of hot water and good water pressure. The view was extraordinary over the garden and pool out into the hills. No air conditioning: but we didn't need it. Even with temperatures in the 90s Fahrenheit, the evening cooled off nicely with a pleasant breeze and it was very enjoyable to sit outside. Even at the heat of the day the area around the pool was comfortable.

The villa is not as isolated as it may appear. It is located in a little enclave of 4 or so buildings and the little, narrow gravel road had occasional cars and trucks probably servicing local vineyards and olive trees. The villa being close to the road you certainly heard them go by even fairly early in the morning. I do not want to make that sound worse than it was. It certainly did not spoil the stay, just not quite what was expected.

The owner was most gracious and the meal she and her daughters prepared for us was wonderful.

Summer In Italy is great. I have already recommended you to another family. Before and during the trip I always received a very prompt reply to my questions. You have been very helpful. And the selection of possible villas was huge. Something for everyone, for sure.

Fantastic

May 2013 - We loved Villa Antica Sosta. It is one of the best villas I have ever rented in Italy. We especially appreciated the fact that we never ran out of hot water and that there were mosquito screens on the windows.

It was perfectly clean when we arrived, and the owner was very kind. We were a little surprised that it was in a group of houses, as we thought it was more isolated, so there was a little road noise from cars going by, but it wasn't really a problem. Otherwise, it was perfect for our needs, although we would have also liked a few more comfortable seating options in the living room... one small couch and 2 comfy chairs are not enough in a house that sleeps 10! Everything else was wonderful though.
