Portico e San Benedetto Vacation Rentals

"The hotel was very nice and as expected, good breakfast and the food from the restaurant was first class. Travelling as a family a big draw of this accomodation was the pool. This was not the cheapest hotel around I figured this to be because it had a pool. I was a little surprised (albeit not the for the first time I'm Italy) that the pool was extra charge, and not a small amount either. I'm not sure if I missed it but this was not communicated on hotels.com. The pool was very nice, it was clean and had good facilities, but it comes at a cost. All in all very nice. Lost a few points for service as during our whole stay there was no one on the front desk to speak to."

"Extremely uncomfortable bedding... the worst I have experienced in my world travels. Staff was fake-friendly. For example, I requested an additional pillow and was asked why I needed it. The indoor POOL is NOT part of their property! Don't be fooled by the images and captions. It is a neighboring property, use for a fee $, and limited hours. Room & hotel were very clean. Food was good. Hotels grounds were nice. "

"If you're looking to stay at a special villa and have the Tuscan dream vacation, then Villa Maria is the place for you.  My family and I rented for a week - 9 of us ranging from ages 10 - 78.  From the moment we arrived, we were wowed by the villa itself, the spectacular views and the owner, Tommaso.  Tommaso had ensured that the villa was equipped with every amenity for a comfortable stay not to mention the extras, like leaving a bowl of fresh fruit, bottles of wine and olive oil.  My family enjoyed everything Villa Maria has to offer, including the pool, tennis courts, pool table and the outside verandas to just sit and soak in the amazing views. In addition, Tommaso assisted us with arranging Chef Donato to cook dinners for us on 2 nights.  I was a little nervous because my family has divergent dietary needs (2 of us are vegan) and some are just picky eaters so I wasn't sure if the experience was going to be enjoyable for all.  Well, what Donato prepared for us was a culinary masterpiece and everyone enjoyed every dish he prepared, taking into account all of our requirements.  My family agreed that these may have been the best meals EVER. The only disappointment was that we had to leave. Villa Maria is simply amazing and we are so grateful for Tommaso as he assisted us with all of our questions in the months leading up to our trip and during our stay to to ensure we had an incredible experience. We will forever treasure the memories we made and we will be back!

"Amazing stat, definitely recommend. "

"Lovely hotel with an excellent restaurant providing exceptional breakfast choices. Along with lunch and dinner I can't fault the food. Friendly staff and room cleaned to a very high standard every day. Surrounded by wonderful scenery, and only 20 minutes from Imola, the perfect peaceful location to explore the area. Hopefully back next year...A+++++"

"The property is gorgeous, the staff was very attentive and all the requests were promptly addressed. The room was big and clean but they don’t have AC. During the day can get warm but overnight there were no issues. The food was delicious and the service was outstanding. Overall we highly recommend this property. "

"Such a beautiful home and beautiful surroundings. The sunset was incredible and counting the stars I was in awe. Thank you Anna for letting us stay in your amazing home. A dip in pool after a day out made it perfect. "

"Excellent as usual!"
