Villa Anna

Fabulous property for larger groups (we were nine). Priceless family time spent by the very big pool over 10 days. All you could need within short car or train ride (car definately needed!).

Fabulous stay

We stayed at the villa for two weeks and it was perfect. The villa was fantastic, so much indoor space. And the outdoor space was superb, enormous gardens and the pool was excellent. Communication with Flavia was brilliant both before and during our stay. Couldn't recommend this place more.

Great last minute booking

The villa was clean, comfortable and spacious. Huge pool with plenty of sun beds and seating areas - we spent a lot of time outdoors! Fabulous outdoor eating area with pizza ovens. All necessary amenities were provided. It would have been better for us to have double beds in all rooms, although we could push the beds together - maybe ask guests beforehand what arrangement they would like? The hosts were warm and friendly, responded to our booking straight away despite it being the day before and replied to all texts immediately whilst we were there. The villa location was perfect for us because we wanted a rural villa with a pool that was close to Rome. There were local supermarkets within 10 minutes drive and you could be in central Rome in 30-45 mins having a gelato! We had a fabulous 5 night stay and couldn’t have wished for anything more and would definitely go back!

Lovely late summer family holiday near Rome

Thoroughly enjoyed our 1 week stay at Villa Anna last week (end September). Party of 6 with one 3 year old. House was beautiful, clean, well furnished. Lots of space and stunning bathrooms - one per bedroom. Kitchen is small compared to other room sizes but fine for our party size and we made good use of the pizza oven / bbq area outside. Wifi was quite poor but then it is a very rural location so wasnt a surprise to us (travelling from a rural English location with a similar issue). Pool area and size is fantastic. It is a proper pool for swimming (which we were aware of in advance) so only area of improvement for us would have been a pool with steps or shallow area for our little boy as he found the cold water and depth too overwhelming to really use the pool - we anticipated this though so went prepared with an inflatable dinghy to use as a boat for him and double up as paddling pool! We also made 3 trips to Lake Bracchio which was warmer than the pool and such clear, still water he had a great time playing and swimming (as did we all!) We found a small beach at Anguillara Sabazia which had a kids play area and was lovely and clean. Food choices limited in September but ok for us, was only a 25 minute drive. A trip to Bracchio itself to visit the castle Orsini- Odescalchi which was amazing with stunning views over the lake then down to the water side - not quite as clean as Anguillara but more food options. 40 minute drive. We took the train from Labaro station one day into Rome and did a few sites, had lunch and spent time in Villa Borgheze park - perfect for kids. We ordered a meal from caterers via Flavia for the first night which was excellent and lasted 2 nights as so much food! Flavia was helpful through out booking and during our stay. Would definitely recommend if you are a group looking for a rural location with trips to Rome city an option. Would definitely return if we could fit it into our schedules!

Simply the best!

Wow!! What a find! We stayed here for 2 weeks in August, 2 families, 9 people in total. The villa is great as it it has 2 upstairs, one at each end of the property with a master bedroom ensuite, so great for 2 families. The pool is the best I have experienced at any rental, great for the kids to play in and great to just swim up and down in. The garden is amazing and well tendered by Mario the gardener who is very friendly, he keeps the garden and the pool looking amazing and is in most days. If you like home cooking, look around the garden where you will find a mass of fresh Rosemary and Thyme!! Be sure to fire up the pizza oven! We did not have a clue how to use it but a simple You Tube video did the trick and the pizza’s all home made were incredible. A car is advisable but its about a 10 min drive to several different train stations where you can park all day for EUR 1.50 and take the train into Rome for EUR 1 each!! We also took high speed trains up to Florence and down to Pompeii, I would recommend both trips. Restaurants can be found in the local town of Formello (5 min drive) or venture a little further to towns like La Storta, we found a great restaurant on the last evening. Pam’s is the local supermarket, which caters for most needs, wine starts at EUR 2.49 a bottle and is really good and large bottle of Moretti Beer were 73 cents!! If you are looking for a villa in a stunning setting with great facilities, look no further, you will not be disappointed. The garden lights up in the evening all around the pool and nice to sit down by the pool with glass of vino gazing at the stars and watch in the night time wildlife come to life. Flavia who owns the property is very helpful and responsive before and during the stay and offers great advise. I really cannot fault this vila, completely recommend it and would love to go back at some point

Fabulous location

We have just returned from 10 days at this charming villa. We were a mixed age party of 11, ranging from 70s down to 7 years. The villa was perfect for us, we had plenty of space to relax. The pool has to be the crowning glory of this property, it is HUGE . Although the weather wasn't kind to us the entire time we all enjoyed it so much despite the water being a little chilly ! We had 2 cars between us and the location being rural meant that we really couldn't have done without them. We journeyed into Rome several times, using the train, La Storta station for the Vatican and Labarbo for other parts of Rome although we did find that Montebello was a better option, particularly for parking. We enjoyed the fun of pizza making in the outside pizza oven as well as the the BBQ. The kitchen was a little small for catering for a large party but we managed and this in no way detracted from our experience at Villa Anna. Flavia was a great host, she answered my endless questions and queries before we got there and couldn't have been more helpful. We ordered a meal from Flavia for the first evening which was excellent and plentiful, definitely recommend. There are restaurants within a very short distance of the villa as well as supermarkets. However the best supermarket we found was Auchan near Larbaro, a bit of a drive but worthwhile. Overall we enjoyed everything about the villa, the area and of course Rome.

Large private villa with great pool

The grounds are extensive and well kept with great space and privacy. The villa is large with plenty of room for large groups. It’s greatest attribute is the pool area. Really large pool that is great for swimming and playing, surely one of the largest private pools you could find and the surrounding olive trees and space is lovely. Flavia was helpful and a great communicator and Mario the gardener could not have been more accommodating and nice. Great guy! My only additional comment is that kitchen could use an update but it’s in no way a negative comment. There is a definite advantage to have a hire car. Would stay again.

Wonderful villa and pool

We were a family of 10 enjoying a week in this lovely villa. It was well furnished and equipped. The 20x8m pool was fantastic. Thoroughly recommend. The small downside was that the WiFi was weak and intermittent, a problem as one of the party had important work to do online. Most of the group suffered insect bites, not sure where they occurred, but a good supply of spray is recommended. Final advice of the week (included in housekeeping notes) - when you check in you will be desperate to try the pool. Put the keys in the outside of the door before you leave house. There is no outside handle and it is easy to lock yourself out.

Beautiful Holiday

We have just returned from a wonderful fortnight at Villa Anna as two families with 5 teenagers. Flavia was extremely friendly, attentive, proactive and quick to answer any questions we had in the lead up and during our holiday and made us feel very well looked after. The pool and pizza oven/bbq were a big hit with everyone. We parked at La Storta train station and travelled into Rome by train on a number of occasions - an extremely easy journey and only 1 euro each! The three villages around Lago di Bracciano are definitely worth a visit. We spent a day in Trevignano Romano hiring beach chairs, pedalos, swimming, snorkeling and exploring the narrow streets. A very clean and beautiful location only a 25 min drive from Villa Anna. If we had discovered this earlier in our stay we would have returned. Flavia's restaurant recommendations of Le Due Lune near Cesano and Donna Lucia in Formello were perfect. A much needed fortnights holiday and a great introduction to Italy and Rome. Thank you Flavia

Lovely villa close to Rome

A comfortable and charming villa in the heart of the countryside but within 40 minutes of the heart of Rome. The villa is spacious and easily accommodated our party of 10. It is well equipped with everything a big group of family and friends require.The pool is large with attractive surroundings, and elsewhere in the spacious garden there are facilities for eating out. Special features we enjoyed were the magnificent pizza oven, BBQ facility, hammock for lazing in the garden, bicycles available etc. Warm and helpful welcome from the Villa owners A strong recommendation from all members of our family.

60th Birthday Trip

My friends and I have difficulty putting into words just how special the Villa Anna became to us during our recent stay. It was a family home for many years and to us it become one again the moment we walked in its door. If you want peace, this is the place, if you want happiness, this is the place, to us it's was perfect in every way. A huge thanks to Flavia who went out of her way to make us feel welcome and to give my friends and I the chance to make some very special memories that will last a lifetime. The Villa Anna is definitely one of a kind .. it stole my heart anyway.

Fantastic villa in a great location

We were two families of 4 each (8 total) with 4 adults and children aged 16-18 staying for one week in July/August. The villa is huge with ample space for all of us. Beds were comfortable and the air conditioning was very necessary as the temperature hit 43 degrees! The swimming pool and barbeque/pizza oven were the best things - the pool is simply amazing! It's huge and very well maintained and the pizza oven and barbeque became the centre of our evenings. Mario the gardener was there to greet us when we arrived and was regularly at the property doing his gardening and was always friendly and checking we were ok. The cat is part of the furniture and we almost took her home with us. Flavia's communication was excellent throughout. Lastly, the villa is remotely located so lovely and quiet but it's only a 10 minute drive to the supermarket, but you do need a car when you stay at Villa Anna. We had a fantastic week and will definitely be back. Thanks Flavia for letting us stay at you beautiful villa x

Wonderful Villa and pool, excellent host and great communications

The villa was really lovely. Everything you need for a relaxing holiday. The pool was second to none. Really huge, clean and perfect for decent swimming as well as having fun. We will definitely consider going back. If you do book this villa, please carry on the tradition of the previous visitors, feeding the little cat who frequents the grounds. She is very, very friendly.

The house is nicely decorated and clean and with a good layout for a big group. The pizza owen and grill in the garden is fantastic. Everything worked well and we can strongly recommend this property. The pool was clean, big and also fanastic, you could really swim in it. It's suitable for those who can swim. The garden was large and we enjoyed our staying in this beautiful enviroment. The hostess was friendly and helpful. Grandparents with 7 grandchildren with their parents from Finland

Mr. Citro

The property was charming. Big house with a great pool. The owners attention to detail was lacking. For a week stay, she left three towels per two guests, a large bath towel, smaller face towel, and a hand towel. You must rent a car to visit Roma, buy grocery, or get anything from a store. The Villa is about 30 to 45 minutes to Roma. Uber is anywhere from $85 to 100 into Roma. You must have an evening when Roberto comes in a cook for you. He made us a four course meal and it was outstanding. The electrical system is substandard for the house size and needs updating. The gardener has sprinklers on timers and water comes into the small bedroom through the windows in the morning. The house is affordable if you are willing to accept the inadequacies.

Such an idyllic spot!

Excellent spot! We went into Rome most days (via train) but certainly enjoyed the lovely grounds and spotless (giant!) swimming pool. Flavia responded immediately to all our questions and was super helpful in communicating with the courier who brought my lost luggage. Three generations of our family were perfectly comfortable the entire trip. (Amazing water pressure! Quiet and secluded- but not far from grocery store/local restaurants. Quality AC. Oh and great for different couples/families because the different en-suite bed/baths were very separate.) We dream of returning!

Villa Outside Rome

Property Manager Flavia is a great communicator & will facilitate your stay. Arranged a wonderful chef Jasmin for us who was both a great cook & would serve & clean kitchen after even when not part of her job. Villa requires an auto to get anywhere you want to go. Rome traffic is ridiculous if you travel into city after 7AM. While villa is close (14 miles to center of city), often takes over an hour. Parking requires paid Parcheggio for safety. Nearby town Formello has some very good restaurants, church for Mass, local food markets & friendly people. Pool at villa is great for staying home & relaxing.
