Amazing views

We have family about 30 min away. The location was perfect. We did get a little lost finding the villa but the host Valerie helped us all the way. Valerie was amazing she couldn’t do any more for us. I would recommend not arriving in the dark unless you know the area. The views are amazing you could never get bored! You will need a car to get around the roads are so quiet and so smooth to drive on (we have lots of pi holes were we live). Great if you love cycling like my partner he rented a bike in francavilla. Would go back again

Spectacular setting, wonderful attention by our host

We loved staying at the Serramonacesca house…such a peaceful place in the most spectacular setting. We could happily spend our time on the back terrace overlooking the glorious countryside; and we made our way up the circular staircase every night for appetizers and then dinner, enveloped by the sunset and then watching the lights of Manopello go on, one by one. But there was so much else to do, within easy reach of the house, that we loved this too; and Valerie went above and beyond as a host, constantly available , responsive, and full of excellent advice, from details on anything we asked, down to the best local back roads to take. Special thanks to you, Valerie.

Casa Maya

My family and I had a wonderful stay at Casa Maya. The house is located in a beautiful part of Abruzzo, with lots of gorgeous villages around. The kids absolutely loved the pool and the views are exceptional. Valerie is a terrific and helpful host.

A lovely stay in an absolutely stunning setting

We would thoroughly recommend a stay in Casa Maya. Valerie is an exceptional host, doing her very best to ensure you get the best from your stay, from researching local festivals to booking restaurants (when our own Italian failed mid phone call). We’d never visited Abruzzo before and were totally charmed - very untouristy, gorgeous hilltop towns, beautiful beaches, stunning views, not least from the house’s rooftop terrace. The house is comfortable and well set up with a large patio for eating, playing and swimming. The setting is rural and very peaceful.

Relaxing countryside hideaway

Me and my wife stayed at Casa Maya in July 2017 for ten wonderful days. The views all around the villa are simply stunning, especially from the third floor terrace, a must see. The property is totally private, unlike a lot of properties that are for rent which are adjacent to the owners property, Casa Maya is without doubt total privacy. We struggled to go out sight seeing for the first few days as we simply didn't want to do anything else except enjoy the property and its amenities. Supermarkets were a fifteen minute drive away in Scafa or Manoppello Scalo, which had all the provisions you required. We ate out at Lu Gattone which is a very short drive away, the food was traditional Italian food served in a very homely and friendly atmosphere, very good food and prices, the owner was tremendously friendly. Also ate in Manopello Scalo at Ristorante De Guilda , where the food again was very good, where we also had the most delicious bottle of pecorino we have ever had. Casa Maya had all the amenities we could need or want and was very clean and tidy. I would not hesitate to recommend this property. Valerie the owner was very helpful in terms of directions and local amenities, and was always available at the other end of the phone if needed. The local farmer serves fresh cheese but unfortunately we didn't seem to be able to time catching them, maybe next time. Regards Andy Adcroft

Groot huis met maximale privacy

Wij huurden Casa Maya in juni/juli 2025 voor 2 weken. De verhuurster, Valerie, is een geweldige host. Ze had bijvoorbeeld brood en verse koffie voor ons gekocht. Tijdens ons verblijf antwoordde zij altijd snel. Zo was er een probleem met het opbouwzwembad, dat house-keeper Antonio voortvarend oploste. Daarnaast gaf hij ons fijne tips voor goede lokale restaurants.Het huis is groot en ligt aan het einde van een doodlopend pad. Rust en privacy zijn dus gegarandeerd. De ligging biedt een prachtig uitzicht op het Majella-gebergte en bij helder weer zelfs de zee. Buiten is een stenen patio, er is dus geen groen/gras/planten, ook niet in bijvoorbeeld potten. Al dat steen vonden wij een beetje jammer. Op de foto’s dachten we namelijk gras te zien, maar dat bleek kunststof-gras te zijn, wat bovendien was verwijderd.Binnen is alles volgens de omschrijving en goed geoutilleerd, maar het is zichtbaar dat het huis al lang wordt verhuurd, want hier en daar kan het wel een opknapbeurtje gebruiken. Toen wij er waren was het erg warm, daardoor werd de bovenverdieping veel te heet en dus niet bruikbaar (tenzij er airconditioning zou zijn). Ik zou het huis daarom in de zomermaanden niet met 6 of 8 personen huren. Voor de lunch of een diner is het mooie dakterras dan ook nauwelijks bruikbaar. Maar in de avonden kun je er wel genieten van prachtige zonsondergangen. Wel zijn er dan steekinsecten, maar daartegen bestaat anti-muggenspray. Je bent uiteindelijk midden in de natuur.

Dejligt hus i et område med gode muligheder for at vandre

Casa Maya er et dejligt hus med en fantastisk udsigt. Vi er en familie på 4 som er glade for at vandre, hvilket området gav gode mulighed er for. Vi havde en skøn ferie i Valeries hus. Valerie er en meget opmærksom værtinde, hun er hjælpsom og meget imødekommende. Hun hjælper gerne med forslag til ture i området, og hvis der opstår et behov for hjælp til at oversætte. Vi vil helt sikkert gerne komme tilbage.
