My stay was so very lovely! I was excited to see a fully stocked kitchen with everything you’d need to cook a meal. The coffee cups( my favorite beverage) were a large size that would satisfy any coffee loverThe bed was so very comfortable and the bedroom had curtains to draw so that it was darkened to aid in sleeping well.Everything was clean and comfortable and I’m already planning another trip next year.

Clean and comfortable

This is such a charming place. It was very clean, the bed was comfortable and it had everything we needed for the weekend. It is also situated very close to downtown for easy access to shops and restaurants. We really enjoyed sitting on the porch, there is a beautiful flower garden that attracts all kinds of wildlife that are fun to watch. We would stay here again!

Quick weekend in Hendersonville

Had a wonderful stay. great communication and a lovely home. Everything was as listed and exceptionally clean. A nice little welcome basket awaited us on our check in which was above and beyond expected and greatly appreciated (and yummy). Will definitely stay there again when we are in Hendersonville or surrounding area.

Peaceful and welcoming

We couldn't have asked for a more perfect, clean, quiet and comfortable place to stay in Hendersonville. Fresh apples and cookies awaited us as we entered. The kitchen area was spacious and well stocked. The 2 outdoor patio areas were green and private, right up against a lovely forest. We will definitely stay here again when visiting the area.

Perfect location with the best host

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Marino and plan to be back! Maria has the villa stocked with all the essentials plus some thoughtful extras. The layout of the place made the most out of the square footage and the 1.5 baths really made the stay easy for 4 of us (2 adults, 2 children). The outdoor patio was a great and we can’t wait to visit in the late spring/early summer to enjoy the beautiful landscaping!!

Lovely host, cute acommodations

Marie was a spectacular host - so sweet and helpful. The bed was comfy and the kitchen well stocked for easy cooking. Our only complaint was lighting was dim for knitting…maybe consider 3 way bulbs for knitters, readers, crossword puzzlers!

Thank you very much for your nice review! I'm glad that you were comfortable and it was so nice to meet you. Sorry you had a problem with the lighting. The lamp in the bedroom by the 2 chairs is a 3-way and I just checked and the light is working brightly! Wish I had known about it while you were here - ah well, next time we'll make sure you have plenty of light for knitting! You're welcome back anytime.
