Lärm pur!!!!!!!!

Wir hätten es ruhiger gehabt wenn wir direkt auf dem Bahnsteig geschlafen hätte Der Lärm beginnt morgens um 3Uhr und endet um Nachts 1Uhr. Die Strassen werden am Morgen um 05..30 Uhr gereinigt mit dem Laubbläser.Das Glas wird 05.00 Uhr eingesammelt. Ferien Adeeeeeeeee!!!!!

Super Urlaub

Die Wohnung entspricht genau der Ausschreibung. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Der Vermieter ist sehr nett und sehr hilfsbereit. Die Umgebung eignet sich auch für Ausflüge bei Nicht-Strandwetter. Alles sehr empfehlenswert! Wir kommen gern wieder!

beautiful

We are a Russian couple from Moscow. The apartment is exactly like in the pictures posted on the website. Beach, shops, bars and restaurants are within walking distance. The apartment is very clean and tastefully decorated with new furniture. The apartment is equipped with everything needed for a holiday, the owners, very nice and helpful, have also given a cot and a child seat for free and were available to fulfill all of our request so that our stay was perfect. We are very pleased to have known them and will of sure stay again in this beautiful apartment.

The best

My wife and I stayed in this wonderful apartment in the first days of September. The apartment was very very clean,well equipped, very quiet thanks also to the new double-glazed windows. The location is realy fantastic, just few steps to the beach and around Francavilla are a lot of interesting places like medieval citys and amazing mountains. The owner live near the apartment and could not have been more plesant and helpful. We have alredy book again for next year this lovely apartment.

Good location for a beach holiday

The appartment is very conveniently situated - the beautiful beach is only a few minutes walk away as are the local shops and some good bars and restaurants. The appartment was clean and fairly well-equipped if you are happy to pay a 5 star price for a 2/3 star rating. The owner was less thatn coopertive when we pointed out that several of the appliances did not function properly,

Super Urlaub

Wir hatten einen wirklich wunderschönen Urlaub! Die Wohnung ist sehr sauber und lässt keine Wünsche offen. Der Strand und das Meer sind ebenfalls sehr schön und in kürzester Zeit zu erreichen. Wir können einen Urlaub in den Appartments nur empfehlen. Grüße und vielen Dank an den netten Vermieter:)

Stupenda vacanza

Appartamento pulitissimo, moderno e ben accessoriato, esattamente come da descrizione. Si trova in posizione centrale di Francavilla a solamente pochi passi dal mare. L'acqua e la spiaggia sono di una pulizia incredibile, con organizzazione impeccabile. Vicino all'appartamento si trova tutto il necessario per trascorrere una vacanza perfetta con la propria famiglia. Il proprietario è una persona gentilissima e sempre disponibilissimo con indicazioni ed itinerari da visitare. L'Abruzzo offre degli scenari mozzafiato che pensavo fossero ormai persi. Abbiamo passato la più bella vacanza tra tutte quelle fatte negli ultimi anni e ci siamo ripromessi di tornare la prossima estate. Lo consiglio a tutte le famiglie!

Excellent expirience

We've really enjoyed our stay in the apartment we rented in Francavilla. Initially I was concerned about the apartment because I had booked it through the internet after having only viewed some photos. As I was traveling with my 14 month old toddler I was concerned about space and the apartment's cleanliness but I was very happy with the condition of the apartment as soon as we moved in. It was perfectly sized for the three of us, neat and clean. Its location was also really convenient as it was a few minutes walking distance to the beach. I was also delighted with the service and kindness of Mr. Mansi. To top it all off we've also got a decent discount for sun umbrellas and lounges at the beach station. I wholeheartedly recommend this apartment to a small family for an extended beach holiday in Francavilla. Do not hesitate to contanct Mr. Mansi as he has proved to be most accommodating. Katia

Superb accommodation

Superb accommodation, just few steps from the beach, spotless and incredibly helpful owner. The location is great, quiet enough for relaxation purposes, but near enough to all local amenities. The sea is really clean. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay
