Residenza d'Epoca San Jacopo

Finally, I can add my review: yes, location is beautiful, apartments are big (though doors are loud, not great if you or your kids are sensitive sleepers). The pool is cool and clean, the private outdoor space for each apartment is nice, with grill and tables and chairs. You pretty much have everything you need. Except, we were not aware that there would be no cleaning service whatsoever for one week (!), which may be acceptable,but I would like to have the possibility to chose the effort I put into housecleaning during my holiday. But not even that was a problem, we were told we had to take out the garbage ourselves, which we did. Fine. But at check out, people in my group thought the staff that came over and was cleaning the other apartments were doing this as well (taking out garbage) so we thought this was the custom, we can go. At this point, one of the owners came to me and said "you must AT LEAST" take out the garbage. My italian is not perfect, but that much I understand. I don t know what at least meant and I guess i was shocked and didn t ask, we did go and took out the garbage (after check out). I wonder if she was expecting us to clean for the next guests!? Then we were sitting on the restaurant terrace because our flight was later in the day, it was not even 12 pm when she came by and said we should be going as other guests are starting to arrive. What??!! We asked what time was the restaurant owned by HER HUSBAND in the village was opening and she said 12. So we left to get lunch. What do you know, it was closed and opened at 2 pm. I doubt she was not aware of that. FYI, we were also travelling with a child and a baby, so many thanks, Eliza. No, I do not recommend it. There are other places just as beautiful and maybe more worthwhile.

Very friendly, extremely good olive oil, location is so remote you can hear your own heartbeat, very relaxing
