Stayed Sep 25, 2025Staying at Paola and Mario’s villa in Castelnuovo di Porto was truly unforgettable. They welcomed us like family - with cake, wine, and genuine warmth - and went above and beyond throughout our stay. They even helped replace my mother’s wheelchair batteries, making what could have been stressful feel easy and cared for.The villa is peaceful, charming, and perfectly located for trips to Rome and Florence, while still offering the quiet beauty of the Italian countryside. The highlight was our last night when Paola prepared a homemade lasagna that gave my mom the exact Italian experience she had dreamed of since childhood.If you’re looking for more than just a villa, but hosts who make you feel at home and cared for in every moment, Paola and Mario are exceptional. This was the heart of our trip to Italy, and we’ll never forget it.

Stayed Aug 9, 2025We have just got back from a fabulous stay at this property. Lovely place and super pool for a really relaxing stay. It was really hot but plenty of shady areas too. The house is spacious and had everything we needed. Paola was so helpful making sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed, as well as helping us with restaurant bookings! Super destination close to Rome - it is a shame that the station in Castelnuovo di Porto is currently closed but it was still easy to get into the city from a station 15mins away. Thank you!

Stayed Jun 24, 2025We had a great time! Property great, pool lovely. We were in the region to attend our daughter's wedding in Rome and we didnt want to rent an apartment in the centre. Paola and Mario's house was perfect. We drove and parked at Villa Borghese in the underground parking. About 35/40 minute journey but you walk straight out by the Spanish Steps and you can cover all the sights on foot if you want or take a tour/metro. Note the local station near to the property is closed for renovation.You need to go to Montebello for trains or buses into Rome if you dont want to drive. Theres some great pizza places in Castelnuovo di Porto. Best one for us was closest to the house. IO Mangio. Im gluten free and they made a proper wood fired pizza for me. Our whole family loved it there. Great view from the rear terrace. Massive thank you to Paola for her help and suggestions. Grazie Mario!

Stayed Jun 9, 2025A small part of heaven on Earth, complete with two angels. Paulo and Mario are the best Vrbo hosts I have ever had. The home and gardens are indescribably beautiful. Everything was immaculately clean including the pool. All of the comforts of home are available. This was our first stop in Italy and we did not yet appreciate how wonderful this place was, especially the air conditioning for each of the bedrooms. The small village is a 10 minute walk away with lots to see and do. We spent one whole day there, then made two day trips into Rome. It is about a 30-45 minute ride to a paid parking lot, then ride the Metro into the historic district. One night we shopped for groceries, grilled out steaks and had fresh pasta. We loved having the privacy of the place to ourselves, the coolness of the pool after a hot afternoon of site seeing, the peaceful Italian country side early in the morning, the option to walk to the small medieval village for gelato, a short ride to Sacrofino for dinner a Da Tonino, or the convenience for a full day of site seeing in Rome. There is no way I could fully describe how wonderful this place is or how much we enjoyed ourselves. You should definitely stay here when you come to Italy. I know I will next time I come. Ciao!!

Stayed Sep 30, 2024My family absolutely loved our stay. Greeted with a smile and a warm hug. A very clean, quiet villa on the countryside away from the hustle and bustle of downtown Rome. There are multiple train stations near the area my family used to go into downtown Rome to enjoy the sites. Was nice to catch the train back nd spend time drinking wine and eating cheeses in the garden area. Kids loved the space and the grounds around the home. Planning on retuning in the near future

Stayed Aug 18, 2024We have just returned from a wonderful holiday at Paola and Mario's idyllic villa. We were looking for a quiet holiday home near enough to Rome to be able to travel in to see the sights but far away enough to be able to enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside. Paola made us welcome from the get-go (even though we arrived after a very late flight) and was always on hand to offer any assistance. The bedrooms are big and air conditioned and the kitchen has everything you need. The jewel in the crown was the pool and its grassy space around it which was were we spent most of our time - It was absolutely perfect for our family holiday! Paola and Mario were extremely discreet and we had the entire area to ourselves but they were likewise always on hand in case we had any questions. I really cannot recommend this villa highly enough!

Stayed Jul 19, 2023Our family loved our stay at Paola's villa! It was great to be able to escape the city every day and come back to such a beautiful, quiet place. It was incredibly hot while we were there, so the pool was a perfect escape from the heat - very clean and the perfect temperature. Getting to and from Rome.was a breeze. The train takes about 50 minutes to get into central Rome. The schedule can be hit or miss, but we were able to just hop on a bus instead. The town of Castelnuovo was also amazing. Everyone was so kind and helpful. There are great restaurants in walking distance of the villa and a mini mart and fresh fruit stand where you can get anything to you need. The coffee shop, bakery and mozzarella shop near the train station can't be missed. Paola was an amazing host - very kind, super helpful, and great recommendations. Seriously the best host we've ever worked with.

Stayed Aug 29, 2022We have arrived back from a ten day holiday at this property. Mario and Paola were exceptional hosts. They accommodated all our needs throughout our stay. On arrival we were greeted by them who showed us around their lovely home and left some essentials including appetisers and wine which was a lovely touch! We were a party of 9 with four children age 9 months to 7 years old. The property is a well appointed traditional italian home and close to the main town which is walkable about 15 minutes. There are a few shops/restaurants closeby which can be reached in around 5 minute walk. The road/drive to the main street from the property was a little harder to reach with a buggy so we chose to drive this and park at the train station which was free. The pool was kept spotless and is at a different level to the house. This keeps it private although it can feel like a long way if you keep having to nip back to the house! We loved the fact the pool had a shallow section which our children played in for most of the time. Overall we had a fantastic holiday and thank you to both Mario and Paola for being great hosts!

Stayed Aug 8, 2022Just spent a lovely week here as two families of four with teenage children. A very warm welcome from the hosts who were very helpful throughout our stay, advising on places to visit and eat and offering to make dining reservations. Villa was very spacious, clean and well equipped. Had everything we needed. Pool area was excellent with plenty of seating options. Easy to travel to Rome from the train station which was a short walk away. The villa is within walking distance of the town with a choice of places to eat yet very private. Would highly recommend!
