I had a wonderful experience at the home — it's truly a beautiful and peaceful place, surrounded by nature and very close to the beach. Giovanni was a fantastic host: welcoming, respectful, and very flexible with schedules, which made everything easier and more enjoyable. The main tasks were related to gardening and taking care of the outdoor spaces, which I found relaxing and rewarding. The accommodation was comfortable, and I felt at home throughout my stay. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone who enjoys nature, tranquility, and meaningful cultural exchange.

The host is too much kind and respectful, the house is awesome and he has a really big garden too. But he don't speak English… so I came back early because of it, I don't know Italian and he spoke only in Italian, unfortunately.

Great food & cooking, safe room however a lack of patience for non Italian speaker. Aggressive style of communication but a good guy deep down as I try to see the good in all experiences.

Lovely, affable, caring and funny are some of the many positive adjectives I could use to describe Giovanni. Whatever I needed he provided, the working hours were as agreed upon, the work itself was light and enjoyable and he prepared diverse and tasty meals every day. Moreover, he trusted me and didn't police everything I did around the house. My only remark is that communication could have been better at times. Overall, a positive and memorable experience!

Te aconseja y ayuda cuando lo necesitas sin problemas y te da la libertad que realmente te haga falta, no tengo nada para reprochar ni aconsejar, una experiencia que sin duda la volvería a hacer sin pensarlo. Muchas gracias por todo 🥳!
