Un accueil tellement chaleureux! Bien sûr, l'endroit est juste magique avec une vue incroyable sur le lac Trasimène, mais c'est avec émotion que je repense aux nœuds de tulle blanc, aux draps de noces, au cappuccino du lendemain matin: nous avons été reçus comme roi et reine en voyage de noces. Grazie par la vostra gentillezza, saremmo felice de ritrovarvi presto! La tuore è romantica, piccola ma anche commodissima: c'è tutto in poco spazio. Un vrai bonheur!! Era la felicità! Véronique & Marc

Très belle situation au milieu des richesses culturelles et gastronomiques qu'offrent la Toscane et l'Ombrie. C'est parfait pour combiner randonnées et visites touristiques. A ne pas manquer, un détour par La Bottega di Zefferino à Passignano Sul Trasimeno, où Anna vous offre un accueil raffiné, passionné et plein d'attentions.

Un sejour parfait dans un cadre de reve... La tour est rénovée avec beaucoup de goût , des attentions multiples nous attendaient à notre arrivée. Endroit idéal pour deux amoureux, la vue sur le lac Trasimene, au petit matin restera l'un de mes plus beaux souvenirs . Je vous engage à rencontrer ce lieu! Merci à Anna et Katia pour leur sourire et leur gentillesse ! A bientôt

Bravo à ceux qui ont conçu l'intérieur de la old tower (y compris sur la manière de placer le mobilier sur des murs ronds !) ... l'espace est parfaitement organisé, tout est à sa place et Michele est généreux dans l'équipement et les petites attentions. Le jardin est très agréable, avec une vue éblouissante et la piscine est attenante, grande, bien entretenue et peu fréquentée (début juillet). Bref, vous passerez des jours heureux dans la old tower !

This spot was magical! A beautiful tower and lawn, private location, looking out over the olive grove, vineyard, and lake. We loved every minute and would have loved to have stayed longer. Close to local spots to eat.

We absolutely loved staying in the tower. It was a once in a lifetime experience and so much fun. The area is beautiful and the view was magnificent. Spent two nights and wish we had more time to enjoy these wonderful accommodations.

The view from the tower is wonderful, the local village shop sells local food and all you could need. The outdoor space is plenty although bit too early to use the pool. Catia made us an amazing meal, the courses just kept coming for a small price, but it was so good and worth so much more, dont forget to tip her! Lovely walk up the mountain behind the tower and lovely places nearby to visit. A very enjoyable stay, thank you. Emma & Steve

This was one of our favorite parts of our trip. The tower is tiny, perfect for two, but the view makes up for the size! I would definitely recommend staying here to anyone who wants to relax and get away from the big cities!

Chez peter et Eva on est accueilli comme des rois. Peter prends le temps de tout nous expliquer et montrer avec un telle gentillesse. Eva nous a même préparé une tarte pourtant ils avaient déjà rempli notre frigo. Les enfants se sont amusés ai tir à l arc avec Peter. De plus le château est une expérience exceptionnelle, restauré avec amour et passion par Peter. Grâce a eux nous garderons un souvenir rare et precieux de notre séjour.

Un séjour magique dans le château de Peter et Eva. Les propriétaires ont su conserver l'authenticité des lieux et ils savent partager leur passion. Nous avons passé une nuit incroyable et unique, à la hauteur de leur accueil. Nous recommandons mille fois !

Ce fut un séjour magnifique et une expérience incroyable ! Peter et Eva vous ouvre les portes de leur château avec une sincérité et un souhait de partage bouleversant (tellement rare de nos jours)... Tout était parfait, une fois encore, du fond du coeur merci.

Nous avons été accueillis comme des reines dans un château magnifique! Peter et Eva sont deux hôtes très sympathique et chaleureux. La description du château ne vaut pas la réalité tellement c'est endroit est magique! Durant un weekend nous nous sommes senties dans un monde médiéval. Le travail de reconstruction de Peter est juste impressionnant et son récit a ce sujet est passionnant. Généralement lors de nos voyages nous aimons découvrir la vie nocturne du pays où nous nous trouvons. Cependant vu la superbe ambiance créé par Peter, nous avons préféré rester dans le château au coin du feu préparé par Peter avec soin chaque matin et soir... En résumé, nous avons été séduite par la beauté et l'ambiance du château...

Peter et Eva, nous avons passé chez vous le plus magique moment de notre ballade irlandaise. Votre château est incroyable, votre passion à nous raconter comment vous l'avez rénové fut un délice à écouter. Nous n'avions vraiment pas envie de partir et j'espère que nous reviendrons un jour vous voir. Merci pour votre gentillesse et votre générosité. A bientôt !

unique, authentique, chaleureux

Non ce n'est pas Pierrot le fou, c'est Peter le magicien ! De ses doigts magiques il transforme les pierres en châteaux, les arbres en lits, le métal en radiateurs, c'est fabuleux ! Accueil très chaleureux de Peter et Eva dans leur merveilleux château, nous y avons passé trois jours inoubliables et espérons y revenir un jour. Mille fois merci à vous deux et mille fois bravo à toi Peter pour ton travail formidable et ton optimisme sans bornes. Nous recommandons vivement !

Eva et Peter merci. Nous avons grandement apprécié votre accueil chaleureux et votre respect pour notre intimité. Passer une nuit enveloppés de ces pierres nous a laissé un sentiment de bien-être. Le château est merveilleux, on sent le travail immense et on admire la touche artistique qu'on voit dans tous les détails.

Un accueil chaleureux et personnalisé , un cadre fabuleux , mieux que sur les photos. Chaque détails apportent du cachet à la demeure , nos filles ont trouvé un terrain de jeu idéal: promenade en barque , un chien nommé Puma protecteur, une cabane , une basse- cours et pleins d'autres choses qu'on vous laisse découvrir par vous même. Idéalement placé , vous pourrez visiter Jelenia Gora à 20 min , les cascades de Karpacz , de nombreux cours d'eau de montagne pour s'y baigner... Irek a tout fait pour que notre séjour se déroule pour le mieux en parlant français ou allemand ou anglais. Lui et sa famille nous ont préparé des plats traditionnels délicieux ( To było pyszne) et ne passez pas à côté du petit déjeuner . merci pour ce beau séjour!!

Excellente découverte! Joli demeure. Hôtes très accueillants. Très bon rapport qualité prix. Le petit déjeuner copieux. Tout était parfait. Allez y les yeux fermés!

Wir waren zu acht bei Irek und haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Doppelzimmer mit Bad/Dusche. Alles sauber. Jede Gruppe findet einen Platz zum gemeinsamen Sitzen. Tischtennisplatte ist auch vorhanden. Irek ist sehr freundlich. Vielen Dank Irek

Nice place in the country...remote location but staff was very friendly and nice..Breakfast was delicious

Die Unterkunft schaut sogar besser aus als auf den Bildern. Das Frühstück ist sehr gut und die Gastgeber sind stets bemüht es einem recht zu machen. Es gibt einen kleinen Burggraben worauf man sogar mit einem kleinen Boot fahren kann. Des Weiteren gibt es Grillecken für ein gemütliches Beisammensein. Besonders für größere Gruppen mit Kindern eignet sich die Burg ;-) Weiterhin kann man hier Tischtennis spielen und die Kinder können sich auf dem Spielplatz austoben. Die Einkaufsmöglichkeiten (Späti und kleinerer Supermarkt) sind ca 10-15 Minuten entfernt. Kurz um: Es lohnt sich!

Ruhige, ländlich gelegene Unterkunft. Es ist kein altes Schloss, sondern zwei Häuser, die so hergerichtet wurden, aber nett und idyllisch. Das Zimmer war okay, Badezimmer neu, warmes Wasser solange man duscht. Die Kochgelegenheit auf dem Flur besteht aus 2-Platten- Herd, Mikrowelle und Kühlschrank und wird von allen Gästen benutzt (nicht ganz sauber). Es gibt wenig zusammengewürfeltes Besteck und Geschirr. Man kann schön auf den Dachterassen sitzen. Die beiden Hunde sind ruhig und mit unseren problemlos verträglich.

Beautiful home and generous, friendly hosts

Geweldige plek, wij hebben er met 2 gezinnen overnacht op weg naar Krakau: we voelden ons meteen heel erg op vakantie, maar het is meer een plek om een week of langer te zijn, ook met jongere kinderen. De omgeving is prachtig en het kasteel is echt indrukwekkend

L’endroit est magnifique. Souper et déjeuner dans le cloître; aussi délicieux que particulier comme expérience. Notre séjour fut trop court pour nous permettre d’apprécier à leurs justes valeurs la grandeur et le confort de l’appartement de la tour. Grazie Ippolita

Endroit paradisiaque !

Le lieu est tout simplement magnifique et très bien entretenu, superbe restauration d'un édifice médiéval plein de charme, très lumineux de par ses multiples baies, mais aussi d'une sérénité et d'un calme dans la nature au fond de cette combe, quel régal ce fut de manger dans le cloître, déambuler dans les salles voûtées, bouquiner dans les prés, mais aussi d'être réveillé au pépiement des hirondelles qui voltigent librement. Accueil chaleureux et discret à la fois d'Ippolita et Simone qui ont su nous conseiller quelques bons restaurants à proximité. Petit déjeuner copieux et de qualité, parfois pris par beau temps du sommet du clocher, promenades dans la nature, en croisant chevaux, ânes, chats et chiens. Une base idéale pour rayonner dans une région riche en monuments et paysages, même si moins connues que la proche Toscane ou que Rome, les abbayes de la voisine Tuscania sont sublimes, la Villa Farnèse à Caprarola aussi, sans oublier le jardin des Tarots de Niki de St Phalle...

Incroyablement beau. L'architecture et la beaté de l'abbaye sont renversant. Ippolita et son père sont tellement attentionné et gentil. Dormir dans une tour de plus de 1000 ans est une expérience unique.

Un endroit unique et une expérience exeptionnelle. Endroit enchanteur et magique. La vue du haut de la tour la nuit parmis les milliers d'étoiles est tout simplement irréelle!

Magique,lieux fantastiques,décors,environnement de rêve,hôtes très accueillants et généreux,le petit déjeuner(copieux,gourmand)en haut de la tour avec une vue imprenable sur l'environnement du manoir est juste à vivre,à ressentir!superbes souvenirs,atypiques,la visite du manoir est elle aussi à voir,un grand merci à Simone qui nous a aidé à redémarrer la voiture qui ne voulait plus partir! Au plaisir d'un prochain séjour!

Nous avons passé un moment unique dans ce château restauré à la perfection!

One of the most unique place we've stayed. I give it a five-plus star rating for this alone. The history surrounding their place is rich. Special treat if you are there when they offer an optional purchase for their guest meal served in the abbey refectory. Fabulous culinary experience made from local ingredients mostly from on the estate. Even the water is pure as it flows underground from the ancient aqueduct. We stayed in the castle tower complete with narrow stone staircase and a smaller separate room on the grounds where grandbaby and family had good nap and nursery functionality. The host and family and staff are very helpful and fun to get to know. You will love it.

Totalmente recomendable, una muy grata experiencia!!!

Excelente, la estadía el fin de semana estuvo perfecto, personal super amable y doña patricia una persona muy atenta, siempre pendiente que sus huéspedes se sientan cómodos, la limpieza increíble, la casa es espectacular, la piscina super divina, todo estuvo muy bien, seguro volveremos pronto. Gracias por hacer del fin de semana algo genial!

Todo en perfecto estado, la casa es increíblemente hermosa y la atención inigualable

El alojamiento es increíble, espacioso, acogedor, la piscina es hermosa . La anfitrióna fue muy amable y atenta a nuestro hospedaje

Un lugar maravilloso, perfecto para pasar un buen rato vacacional

Es una casa moderna, amplia, excelente atención por parte de su anfitriona, un lugar para descansar y desconectarse. Súper Recomendado!!

Excelente finca privada por su ubicación, limpieza y atención. Fotos tal cual muestran en airbnb. Sus 4 habitaciones, zona de estar, bbq y cocina hicieron que disfrutaremos al máximo el viaje. Zona de jacuzzi 2 horas diarias

an amazing place. worth the money if you know everything. hidden cleaning charge and be sure you know what you need to bring (linen, towels, toiletries, soap etc.). The place is amazing, there is a family that up upkeeps the house on premises on the other side of the pool.

Excelente anfitriã , muito atenciosa e gentil, apartamento bem aconchegante. Super indico, voltarei com certeza

Localização excelente, tem tudo perto e de boa qualidade

A Amanda é uma mulher maravilhosa! Sempre enviou as mensagens necessárias e foi tudo muito prático! O apartamento tem uma linda vista abrangente da cidade, com lindo pôr do sol. A rua tem exatamente tudo que você precisa, bancos, supermercados, shoppings e academias. O apartamento ofereceu tudo que eu precisava para uma estadia confortável, e o ar condicionado é ótimo, tem tanto temperatura para o verão quanto para o inverno, então fiquei confortável sempre, pois fui no inverno frio da cidade. A senha eletrônica da porta do apto é incrível e não precisa de chave! A portaria é 24h e sempre muito educados e rápidos para abrir a porta para você! A decoração é linda, agradável e moderna. Enfim o melhor lugar para estar em Curitiba!!

Amanda is probably one of the best Airbnb hosts that I have encountered. She is very communicative. The apartment is a great value for the money and well located.

Adoramos nossa primeira experiência com o Airbnb graças à Amanda. O apartamento é lindo e de extremo bom gosto. Muito funcional, cozinha equipada, lençóis e toalhas limpos e cheirosos. Wifi ótimo, SmartTV, ar condicionado com aquecedor (nem usamos, mas tem). A localização é muito boa, com opções de passeios, restaurante e bares. Sempre vamos para Curitiba passear e resolver assuntos pessoais e agora teremos um problema, pois encarar um hotel executivo será mais difícil depois de ter se hospedado nesse apartamento. Muito obrigado, Amanda. Desejo muito sucesso para você.

Amanda's place is in the heart of Curitiba. When you walk into the apartment, you instantly feel like you are in a special and comfortable environment. Amanda is also a sweetheart!!! Definitely staying here next time I'm in Curitiba. TMJ!

Carol é uma excelente anfitriã, muito sensível às necessidades do hóspede. Recomendo para quem vier a Curitiba.

Lindo apartamento acompanhado de um atendimento excelente!

Lots of stairs but a Great View!

I spent 5 days here with my girlfriend. This is such an amazing place to stay, this is why: 1) The view is perfect, You can see the whole north beaches that are close to Flamingo. We were very lucky because we saw whales from the pool at around 11 a.m. local time. 2)The best part for us. The place is located in Flamingo Beach, which is in the middle of several other beaches that are maximum 30 minutes away, for example, We went to these beaches during my stay(4x4 car recommended so you can travel at a decent speed because of rocky roads): North: Dantita Beach, Danta Beach, Prieta Beach, Penca Beach, Potrero Beach. South: Conchal Beach, Minas Beach(I saw whales here too), Real Beach, Bahia de los Piratas Beach, Pedregal Beach, Tamarindo Beach, Langosta Beach. 3)The are restaurants and supermarkets all around Flamingo Beach, so it is easy to get your supplies.😁 4) The are other things to do around like ATV rides, Jetskis, Surfing and many more that we didn't have to discover. This place is perfect for a couple! We really thank the owners for sharing this amazing place with us and hopefully with other visitors.

The place itself is breathtaking with an amazing view overlooking the bay. It was very clean and it had everything we needed. The kitchen has all of the basic cooking supplies, including an oven, allowing you to cook any kind of meal. The place is located within walking distance to Flamingo beach as well as the town. I highly recommend to stay here if you are looking for a private getaway. I cant wait to go back! El lugar en sí es impresionante con una vista increíble de la bahía. Estaba muy limpio y tenía todo lo que necesitábamos. La cocina cuenta con todos los suministros básicos, incluyendo un horno, lo que permite cocinar cualquier tipo de comida. El lugar se encuentra a poca distancia de la playa Flamingo y del pueblo. Recomiendo alojarse aquí si están buscando una escapada privada. No puedo esperar para volver!

Just WOW.... if you are thinking about booking this place DO IT RIGHT NOW! My fiance and I have stayed in countless air BNB's all over the world and this is by far our favorite! The space isn't huge but if you're looking for a intimate romantic space, you seriously cannot beat this place! The hosts are some of the nicest people we have ever met, and the location is PERFECT, only a 2 minute drive from town and the beach. The pictures do not do this place justice, the most amazing view out of every window. Book it now!

This place is perfect for couples or two close friends traveling that are for a budget friendly apartment in the heart of playa flamingo. Walking distance to several fun restaurants, bars and the beach! Kitchen is perfect to cook in and the views are fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed and would stay there again!

Some people over excited and write excellent review, I want to be earnest to the public, few things have to be improved to be a good place to stay: Washroom is separated by curtain, it is zero privacy, fully visible and smell able. It does not cost too much door installation. Second, problem is shower tap and is not in good working condition, when you turn it on, it goes from shower and tap. Should be serviced periodically. Third, washroom washbasin it leaks on the floor if you open water too much. Washbasin is the worse design in the world. The fourth, ants, ants, everywhere especially at nights. The fifth, the last: it is hot there when over 30C without A/C, small one could work well.

Beautiful property with really good amenities. Best view.

Lovely space. AMAZING view spanning much of the bay, with tall and functional windows that we could leave closed with the AC or open for the sea breeze, all with screens. Well-stocked kitchen with tools and appliances for beautiful meals. One strange item is the limited number and odd placement of electrical outlets - we had to bring the toaster and blender to the bedside table, for instance, to use them. But once we figured that out, it was not a problem. They had fumigated right before us, so it was a little alarming to see the dead bugs occasionally appear on the floor... very few live ones, though, which was unexpected and pleasant. Yarina was so lovely, hospitable, and easygoing. She allowed us to extend our stay by a day, paying in cash. We imagined for a delicious moment simply living in the castle tower for an extended stay (months) instead of going home. So cozy, clean, comfortable, sweet, and grand.

Local bem central, ótimo apto, confortavel, limpo e bonito

Lugar excelente. Studio pequeno mas com acabamentos muito bonitos. O predio tem de todo, desde espaços para trabalhar ate academia e piscina com vista a cidade (19o andar). Perfeito para viagem de negocios. Amanda é uma host muito comunicativa. Ela estava nos EUA no momento da minha estadia, mas nos organizamos rápidos para pegar as chaves e durante a estadia ela se importou comigo. A esse preco o apt tem um otimo custo benefício e uma alternativa real aos hoteis de 4 estrela tranquilamente 50 reais mais caras por diaria.

The place is comfortable, modern and well located - everything I could have hoped for.

Se quer conforto, modernidade e segurança em Curitiba o Studio é perfeito!

Superou as expectativas!!!

Nossa estadia foi ótima! O apartamento supriu todas as nossas expectativas, bem equipado, limpo e seguro. A localização é ótima e a Amanda sempre pronta a ajudar em todos os momentos.

Excelente acomodação! Tudo conforme descrito. Até melhor, pois a estrutura do prédio não foi muito mencionada e é incrível, muito segura e com várias áreas de lazer, inclusive piscina e academia, onde temos acesso a todas elas. O apartamento é muito bem decorado, com todos os equipamentos funcionando perfeitamente. Colchões extremamente confortáveis, roupas de cama e banho devidamente limpas e wi-fi rápido. A localização é ótima, no Centro, com acesso fácil a pontos de embarque da jardineira e do ônibus que faz o trajeto para o aeroporto. Muito perto do Shopping Estação, com supermercados nos arredores, além de uma padaria 24 horas do outro lado da rua. E por menos de R$10 você pega um Uber e passa a tarde no Jardim Botânico! Quanto à anfitriã, mesmo estando fora do país, foi super atenciosa. A Amanda respondia rapidamente nossas dúvidas e se preocupou durante toda a estadia em saber se tudo estava correndo bem. Viajamos meu namorado, meu irmão e eu e nós recomendamos muito! Foram dias ótimos!

Great

Wow !!!!!!!!!!! Nous avons adorés notre séjour à cette magnifique maison dans le désert. Nous avons absolument rien de négatif à dire. La maison est comme un musée , tout les jours nous trouvions des nouveaux détails à admirer. Merci Perry.

You can expect exactly what you see in the pictures. It is actually very comfortable.

Perrys Tile house ist a total piece of art and it is so colorful and has a very happy atmosphere. We enjoyed this Place very much, especially sitting in the hot tub while watching the stars and then sitting in the garden and feel the good energy of the deserts. It you are looking for a very special and unique place Perry Tile house is the perfect Place for you and Perry is very sweet and the communication was perfect too.

Incredible home - Had the best weekend... No complaints whatsoever, can't wait to go back!! <3

The tile house is always a treat. We went for my birthday last year and came back again this year with our two doggies, who finally mastered the pet door and opened up a world of self sufficiency. The house is a testament to Perry's hard work and eclectic artistic sensibilities and is a pleasure to spend time in.

This was an incredible space, for an amazing birthday.

The Tile House is an absolutely incredible space. The photos and description are accurate but it's impossible to adequately convey the feeling of being in it and surrounded by the beauty of the desert landscape. It is not just a place to stay, it's an experience in itself and one that I'm very thankful to have had. From a practical perspective, we found the space to be clean and comfortable with everything we needed for our stay. In addition to being an amazingly talented artist, Perry is a wonderful host. He was informative, responsive and so very gracious. I highly recommend a stay here.

Don't believe the overly-commercial hype of Disney's self-proclamation as the happiest place on earth.... THIS is the happiest place on earth! Why stay at a generic hotel when there are gems like this out there? THANKS for enriching my life experience AirBnB & Perry!

Si vous passez aux alentours de Sonora il faut s'arrêter au Château St George. Vous aurez tout dont vous rêvez : Hospitalité Attention Tranquillité Recommendations..., C'est une adresse incontournable ! Mille merci George et Charmel!

Tout est fabuleux : l’accueil, le lieu iconique avec un magnifique coucher de soleil et un confort exceptionnel au Château. Le vin du Château Saint Georges est prometteur ! Merci Georges et Charmelle.

Lovely spacious custom home on a very large view lot in an exclusive country neighborhood just outside Sonora. George is an accommodating, generous host. He helped guide us in, made the rooms up as we desired for our group, and provided continental breakfasts. What makes a stay here truly special is his excellent knowledge of wines, and his generosity in sharing the fruits of his cellar and kitchen with us. He invited some friends over, and we all had a lovely dinner and evening. For us, this was better than a BnB, and more like staying at the nice home of a friend. I would recommend/return. Thanks George! The only caveats are that there was someone else renting a room upstairs (she was very quiet but we couldn't use the media room), and there is a cat (very friendly, but some folks may have allergies).

Our host was unbelievably generous with his home, and welcoming and informative as a local in the area; we arrived as strangers and left as friends! My boyfriend and I had an incredible time from start to finish. George is an excellent cook and has impeccable taste in wine. We dined in his dining room Friday (ribeyes!) and in the turret the second evening (duck breast)! It was a beautiful weekend - spent Saturday in Yosemite surviving on a few snacks provided by George. George made good recommendations for sights within the park and kept in good touch with us over the weekend so that we could coordinate dinner plans. He was also ready with breakfast for us each morning and was just a wonderful person to talk to about all sorts of things. On Sunday before we headed out, George directed us to a friend's wine tasting room in nearby Murphys where we sampled some excellent reds and enjoyed a day there. I can't say enough about the quality of the residence, the accuracy of the location on AirBnB, and the pleasantness of our host. My boyfriend and I look forward to many return visits and more romantic weekends in the Yosemite Valley!

George is not only a friendly and generous host but also a great cook! The rooms are really large and the wine is very good. The coolest thing is the music outside and looking into the wonderfull landscape.

尽管在优胜美地失联，但是一到有信号的地方，就收到房东的电话，确认我们一切是否顺利。房间是意料之外的大和漂亮。在房东的帮助下，我们前往附近的小镇就餐，那是到美国七天以来吃得最好吃的一顿。当天是满月，在就餐回到住所，房东十分热情地告知哪里享受月光，这种热情好客的感受住酒店和旅馆是无法感受的。 房子很大，也十分适合家庭旅游

Was in love with this home long before I got there. The hospitality was just as welcoming as the home. Quiet, dead end road, paradise overlooking vineyards that can be seen far into the distance. The roses and lavender in full bloom, the wine, the house decor, the music. It was all perfect. I was looking for a special location, and was swept away to the vineyards of France. A special peaceful retreat that soothed the soul. An amazingly comfortable bed was the perfect finish.

My guests and I had a great time at George and Charmelle’s lovely chateau. Their place is amazing! Also the view is just spectacular. They were also very kind to live us a few bottle of great wine. Great place for larger groups, especially families.

The host seems really nice, we never got the chance to meet her. The pictures are accurate. The castle is beautiful.

My two sisters, our cousin, and I enjoyed a girls' weekend at the castle. The home was comfortable and charming, with lots of interesting decorative touches. Maria was a gracious and unobtrusive hostess. We held cocktail hour on the balcony, dined at several nice area restaurants, hiked some Ellington trails, soaked in the claw-foot tub, read beside the little pond in the gazebo, and binge-watched episodes of Downton Abbey on a large-screen computer I brought along for the trip. It was a perfect girl's wind-down weekend. Thank-you, Maria!

Definitely worth the trip!

Had a fabulous time at Maria's castle home. She is a warm and inviting person and her house was very unique. The pictures do not do the property justice. I would definitely stay here again.

A unique, wonderful and clean home. The castle is well furnished and an interesting setting to explore and to relax in style. Like the castle itself, Maria is a wonderfully unique and pleasant hostess. Our visit to Ellington was truly memorable. p.s. while staying in Ellington, you must dine at Trattoria da Lepri (just down the road from the castle). Maria recc’d it and it was truly amazing food. Dick, Deb and the staff are super friendly as well. You will find yourself wanting to do dinner there each evening. p.p.s. Also, LuAnn’s Bakery (just 100 yards or so from the castle) has very good breakfast sandwiches and the raspberry danish is remarkable.

Nice getaway

My girlfriend and I have been using AirBnB for years, and this was by far the most incredible experience we've ever had. The pictures of the castle do it no justice, and as you pull in and experience the shear size and feeling of the property, you become completely enamored. Maria greeted us upon arrival, and it felt like we were staying at a family member's home, that just so happened to be A CASTLE. Every inch of the castle was immaculately clean, and incredible immersive. Upon entering the door, you feel swept into a different place and time—romance, fun, and warm togetherness surround you. From coffee on the balcony overlooking the vast green trees of Connecticut, to staring up at the bright stars above at night—even the incredibly comfort of the beds—we cannot recommend the castle any further—it was an amazing and romantic time for us and we will never forget it. If you're debating booking it, just do it, you won't regret it.

This is an incredible, unique property that is perfect for a quiet getaway. The castle is very spacious and well-equipped. The bedrooms are comfortable and inventively decorated. Ellington is a small town but there are lots of interesting places within a short drive to visit. Maria was a very friendly and communicative host. I couldn't recommend this more highly.

Gorgeous property, so many cool details and beautiful decor. All the amenities you could possibly ask for. We had such a great time.

This place is simply awesome. Very cool place perfect for a group or family. The house is very cool, and the grounds are wooded and scenic. The drive in isn't that bad. Fairly close to town as well.

This home is amazing! It has everything from intrigue to complete peace. The adventure of climbing to the top of the castle tower or the luxury of a warm bubble bath, this place has it covered. The setting makes you feel like you can totally disconnect from the rest of the world, yet if you want to get to Eureka Springs it is just a few minutes away. The art is thoughtful, the setting majestic, the experience unforgeable!

Two things about our stay where second to none--the house and communication with Elana! We had a party of nine and never felt short on space to sleep, bathe, or play! This house is everything you need and want for a short or long stay in Eureka Springs. I can't recommend this enough.

Home away from home with modern touches! Great communication with our host and she truly made us feel welcome! The best review...we are already planning to go back and spend more time! Thank you for a wonderful stay for our team development!

From start to finish everything about our experience staying at Stonehaven was phenomenal. Great location just North of Historic Downtown Eureka Springs and amazing accommodations! Absolutely no complaints. Thank you Elana and Chris! We will certainly be back.

Stonehaven Castle is absolutely fabulous! We were in Eureka for our son's wedding weekend, but we needed about a week to stay. The house is beautiful and relaxing to stay in. There was plenty of room for all of us. We enjoyed hiking and our grandson spotted the wrecked car right off! The view from the top of the turret at night and at sunrise was breathtaking. Would love to come back!

My husband and I chose Stovehaven for our Spring Break location with our four preschool and elementary grandchildren. First, the beds were wonderful, (tempurpedic, if not quite similar) making getting up at 5:45 a.m. with a 2-year-old doable, as we had rested well the night before. Since we visited during the rainy season, we were unable to use the outdoor space much, but Stonehaven worked quite well considering we were "cooped up." Because there are actually two upper levels, with two separate staircases, we had room to spread out and play in the afternoon, without the worry of waking a napping child in the other part of the house. Elana had an internet snafu worked out before our arrival, although she had been told that it would be days before technicians could be available. It was important to us, so she made it important to her. There was also a very new, clean pack-n-play available. The spirit of the house was very calming and we appreciated the book selections, with something available for both adults and children. We are quite accustomed to having lots of "to-do's" when checking out, so finding Elana's check-out policy on the counter was truly the icing on the cake for the space. We are already planning a return!

第一次在airbnb上找地方住就获得了超棒的体验。因为刚巧赶上圣诞，再加上看房东先生所提供的图片看起来非常有温馨的美国乡村式家的感觉，所以决定带着父母入住。房东先生待客很热情，怕我们找不到路早早带车在路边等着跟我们汇合，晚上听完音乐会之后怕我们难打车，还接我们回去，很体贴。 进入古堡之后发现实景与图片所展示的基本完全一致。房东先生因为周日要作礼拜的原因没法为我们提供早晨，但是却提前给我们送来了面包牛奶鸡蛋肉松，并叮嘱我们面包可以用烤箱烤过后再吃，让人觉得不像是在外地居住，竟有一种家的感觉。这次只住了短短一晚，希望以后有机会再来济南的时候再次入住。 （PS:作为一个超爱狗但是家里没有养狗的人，一进院子看到那么多品种的狗狗们都趴在栏杆上叫……真的开心坏了！！！）

匆匆忙忙回到家里留给我印象最深的就是在这座充满艺术童话气息的古堡接触的人和事物，郁郁葱葱的青山，精美别致的陈设以及全身奉献于主的曾老师，感谢你把主的恩赐带给我。一份深刻的记忆

谢谢这几天小姐姐的招待，小姐姐好显小，好年轻，好温柔！(๑´∀`๑)临走前一晚跟小姐姐在露台聊天，虽然没见到叔叔阿姨，但是从小姐姐的讲述中了解了一些，真的很喜欢叔叔阿姨的生活方式，把生活过的有诗意，每一天都很美好。每一间房间都有自己独特的风格，颜色混搭的超级和谐！每一间都超喜欢！٩꒰๑• ̫•๑꒱۶♡ 舍不得小姐姐，萌萌，布什（同音 不确定啦）相逢即是有缘。下次再带好朋友去♥

风景特别优美，房间布置得特别温暖~

叔叔阿姨人真的超级好！把来济南的第一个住处定在这里真的很明智！离开的时候，叔叔阿姨还说在济南有任何问题都给他们打电话，真的很暖心呀！我会再回去看叔叔阿姨的！

挺不错的

房东和棒，还给我们准备了早餐

非常享受在古堡度过的一晚，早晨起床后在顶楼的早餐极为周到，郁郁苍苍，环境优美，窗外视野所见都是千佛山的余脉。 房主的收藏品和热情都令人难忘，尤其是在还有两只可爱的宠物的环绕下。 下次来济南，依然会优先考虑古堡的民宿。

Had an incredible 3 night stay with Maarten, Haibo, and Eric. Most definitely one of my best experiences in China, the highlight was perhaps chilling in the creek nearby (nature's jacuzzi) after a day's walk/hike. The local villagers are terrific and uber friendly, not to mention one lent his television set at 3 am to catch the World Cup final. Would love to return again one day.

Maarten was very communicative and helpful in advance of our trip which made our arrival go very smoothly. We enjoyed reading the little booklet which gave an insight into the story of the house. Haibo the caretaker was there to meet us on arrival and always did his best to ensure we were taken care of & was happy to make arrangements for activities. He is a lovely, gracious and gentle man and his family are also very nice. The mountain walk with Haibo's mother to see her goats was such a treat & a pleasure. Xiaomo cooked us some good simple vegetarian food, always served with a smile. The house is beautufully restored and we enjoyed being in the village and getting to know a few people. The countryside and scenery is beautiful and alive with stunning butterflies & birds. Maarten & Eric came back to the house during our stay & were keen to ensure we were ok. Thanks to their vision, Laojia is a unique and special place to stay.

I had a lovely time in Langshi! Although I did not get a chance to meet Maarten, but he was ever so helpful as I made preparations for my first adventure in China. With his help, I was able to make a smooth journey to Langshi without the help of Mandarin. I did get the opportunity to meet Haibo, who was an absolutely wonderful host. Not only did he arrange guides for us, but he also helped us with directions and transportation. I had a lovely time meeting his mom and seeing her goats during our hike. I also had a great time exploring the village and sipping tea in the evening under the moon. I hope to visit Langshi and Laojia again in the future.

We stayed 2 nights here. It was an amazing experience. The house itself makes everything, very beatiful and tastefully restored. But also the little village is so nice and genuine with all the beautiful surroundings of the river and the karst mountains. No other tourists here so you really get an insight in the old traditional chinese rural life. Really feels like you find your self back in past dynasty times. This is quite unique and difficult to experience as a non-native traveler in China nowadays when tourism is expanding at speed. The caretaker, Haibo, was a great host and really attentive. We also joined his mother for a 4 hour hike in the mountains along the river and through the vast pomelo orchards. This was certainly one of the highlights. Also, the vegetarian food they made for our dinners was very delicious!

Our stay at Laojia was fantastic- Haibo made us feel incredibly welcome in both the house and the village. We especially enjoyed the hike with Haibo's mother up the mountain to see goats, talking with the villagers and just wandering around Langshi. The house and facilities are amazing, with everything thought of. The food is great, and the villagers may invite you to eat with them also. We highly recommend staying at Laojia if you are looking for a different pace to the busyness of daily Chinese life.

LaoJia was one of the most authentic Chinese experience I have encountered in China. A refreshing break from the notoriously touristy YangShuo began with Eric picking us up on his very own river boat and taking us into a very small village where his home is. Eric is extremely hospitable and was very accommodating to our requests. He gave us a tour around the village and explored caves in the mountains. At night we had a few enjoyable chats and meditation sessions at the top floor. Hands down this was well worth the experience.

Experience traditional China in an 150 years old house. A must do activity is the night boat ride with Mao. We had a wonderful time here!

What an amazing place... I've stayed in some sweet places via Airbnb, but this one takes the cake. Simply awesome. This was an experience I will take to the grave.

Vraiment dépaysant !!! C'était des vacances dans les vacances, nous avons passé 5 jours à Laojia, nous avons adoré. Venez uniquement si vous voulez découvrir la nature et la vie rurale chinoise. Il y a tout le confort nécessaire, tout est propre mais ce n'est pas un hôtel ni un lieu touristique, vous vous y sentez comme chez vous. Haibo (il 0parle anglais) est un excellent hôte, et plus que ça il s'occupe de tout ce qu'il faut pour que votre séjour se passe au mieux. Il faut savoir que le village est accessible (quasiment) uniquement par bateau car il se trouve de l'autre côté de la rivière. Grâce à Haibo, nous n'avons eu à nous soucier de rien. De plus Xiaomo, la cuisinière peut préparer des repas si l'on veut. Vraiment nous recommandons et nous y reviendrons si nous retournons vers Guilin, c'est vraiment le coeur même de Guilin et Yangshuo, mais sans les touristes. Un bonheur !

Une étape incontournable pour ceux qui souhaitent découvrir la Chine vu de l'intérieur, des paysages magnifiques tout autour du logement, beaucoup d'activités proposées, un "hôte" très sympa et disponible pour tout besoin, des villageois accueillants, bref au top. J'ai fais l'erreur de n'y rester que 2 nuits et ce n'est pas assez, il y a beaucoup de choses à faire, je recommande minimum 3 jours/3 nuits, mais plus vous restez, mieux c'est.

Nous n'aurions pas pu mieux terminer notre voyage ! Tout était parfait, les chambres, les repas et l'accueil des gens du village. Je conseille tout particulièrement de faire la randonnée le long de la Li-River ou de profiter de la tombée de la nuit pour aller prendre le thé avec Mao sur son "Bamboo boat" : exceptionnel ! Un merci tout particulier à Haibo, notre hôte, pour son authenticité et sa gentillesse.

After many days in busy chinese cities, we arrived to Laojia to rest... and we definetely enjoyed it. The place is charming, beautiful landscapes, Xiaomo's food is incredibly tasty and Haibo is a really nice person, helpful, sweet and very communicative. Haibo helped us to arrange all the activities and everything was perfect! I highly recommend to buy a chinese sim card (not at the airport or train station), to stay in contact with Haibo (he doesn't use Whatsapp or WeChat). 100% recommended!

老家给我的印象是远离城市喧嚣的世外桃源……漫山遍野的开满了黄色和白色的油菜花，与漓江、云雾缭绕的远山相互叠嶂……彷佛置身仙境......与老公在江畔漫步，真的彷佛世间只有我二人一般......宁静、惬意......海波、小莫及村里的人们对我们真的和远方游子归家一般的感觉……房子嘛……老房子.....老板维护的很好......只是略显孤独.......

We had a Wonderful time at laogia. The scenery is breathtaking, in a truly lovely spot on the river. Haibo and Maarten were wonderful. We went for an excellent hike to see Haibo's mums goats at the top of a karst mountain, and spent hours wandering through orange groves filled with butterflies. Waking up to duck eggs for breakfast in a lovely large traditional house - lots of r& r!

We actually had the best time in Langshi. Haibo was a perfect host and helped us with everything. The house is really nice and we really felt at home during the week we stayed there. There is everything you need for having a great holiday and travel experience. It’s such a nice opportunity for all those who want to experience the “real” China apart from all the big cities. The locals are so friendly and helpful and even though there is such a big language barrier you can find some way to communicate. “ we all laugh in the same language” I can recommend this accommodation to everyone who loves adventures. It starts with the way to get to LaoJia. A nice local woman picked us up from the airport and gave us some local fruit and fresh water. It was the first contact with the locals and I couldn’t think of a better and more warm-hearted start. We did a trip to a tea plantation also with the local driver and went to Yangshuo. It was really cool to pick the tealeaves and taste some different tea. On of the best things during the week was the fabulous food Xiaomo cooked for us. I actually loved watching here cooking the food. I think it’s the best way to try the typical Chinese cuisine.

I had wonderful time at Laojia and Langshi village. Laojia is very beautiful place. I enjoyed the beauty of elegance and charm of the house, especially loved the little gardens of front and back houses and the mediation room connected to my bedroom. Haibo is so warm and diligent caretaker who always make sure visitors are comfortableand happy. Villgers we encountered welcomed us with smile. I also liked interactions with other guests at the common areas. My favorite activities were climb the Five Finger mountain that is just back of the house(the view is spectacular and we watched breathtaking sunset) and calligraphy lesson with Jiyou. I will miss this beautiful village and villigers. I would love to visit other Liaojias they running as my first experience exceeded my expectation.

C'est vraiment bien et ça me convient. Sophie était super and joli. Je reviendrai la prochaine fois

虽然没有酒店那么方便 但是真的是个超烟火的住处 楼下交通方便 便利店小吃店都很多 体验当地生活很合适

Sophie的房子就是典型的东山小洋房，三室两厅一厨一卫的配置，每个空间不算特别宽敞，但是装修风格很有老广州味道，跟朋友们的旗袍pa完全玩hi了，拍了很多照片。有什么问题回应也很及时，推荐。

很舒服的一次休息,房间布置的很温馨!

房東一直oncall，每一次遇到問題都可以很快的時間內回應並解決。而且供給的信息十分全面。地址在信息的引導下的確精確的找到了。看到評論很多人說洗手間問題，但我個人覺得還好。每個房間的裝飾都稍有不同，但均特別又好看。是我很喜歡的民國風，當晚穿上旗袍跟三五知己一起聚會，度過了十分美好的一晚。

特别棒的住宿体验！！超级推荐来广州旅游的朋友入住！感受广州文化

很好

房子非常有特色，充满了时代感。楼下附近很多吃的，交通也很便利，根据管家的指引很容易就可以找到房子，会推荐给来广州的盆友

We, 6 adults, visited the castle and enjoyed much. The place is at the edge of woods, facing 3 sides to lake Kariba. We could use BBQ grille for dinner,

We loved our stay at John's castle. Wonderful location, comfortable interiors and excellent amenities. John was a knowledgeable and friendly host, taking us out on a boat trip and regaling us with many stories. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to be back!

the castle is beautiful and the location is great. especially when you have the castle and pool etc. for your own it is amazing. a special place. just make sure the booking is for the right amount of persons cause this can be confusing (as in our case). also earplugs could be useful as the chickens and cock on the terrain can be noisy early in the morning. basic facilities but beautiful building and place!

The castle is an oasis of tranquility surrounded by mature trees with stunning views of Lake Kariba from every angle. Unique accommodation perfect for small or large groups. Well stocked kitchen, spotlessly clean, comfortable beds and friendly hosts. Our family of 4 adults was extremely comfortable and well cared for. A beautiful experience rather than just the standard hotel rooms offered elsewhere. Even better than we hoped it would be and the photos don't do the place justice! Awesome. A little bit of paradise and would highly recommend, thanks so much Edith and John - lovely hosts.

An amazing location and unique space to relax, recuperate or have fun with friends or family. Plan to stay there again in the near future.

The castle is a wonderful place in Siavonga and John went out of his way to make our stay memorable. I hope to be back soon!

John was an excellent host who went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable.

Nice quiet place

Appartement simple mais efficace. Très bien située. A coté de la mer des bars et restaurant pour sortir. juste à coté du grand marché très sympa... Dedi est là pour toutes questions, très bon hôte et adorable. Encore un grand merci à lui ! =)

Logement petit mais très fonctionnel et bien situé, a recommander

Appartement très bien situé. Didi était disponible et souriant dès qu'il le fallait. A vraiment 100m de la plage, quartier très calme et serein. Par contre, attention, l'appartement est fonctionnel mais de petite taille. De plus l’accès au lit peut être difficile pour des personnes âgées ou a mobilité réduite. Sinon à recommander sans hésiter.

Propriétaire au top du top toujours a l’écoute appartement très propre et bien située je reviendrai sans hésitation !

Appartement très bien situé. Les propriétaires sont très accueillants. Le descriptif est conforme à ce que l’on a. Je recommande vivement cette location.

Appartement superbe et très bien placé ! Dedi est disponible et très accueillant. Merci pour tout

Very clean and nice place.

Great place, simple but perfect for walkong out the door to the beach and Tel Aviv's vibrant neighborhoods. Definitely recommended!

La maison de Nadim est proche de Laqlouq, dans un endroit préservé et calme, quelques commerces dans le village de Aqqoura. Accueil exceptionnel et chaleureux, visite insolite et inoubliable de la grotte, inconnue des guides touristiques que Nadim a eu la gentillesse nous faire découvrir ! Échanges très faciles car Nadim et son papa parlent un anglais parfait. Un grand merci pour tout!

We had a great stay at Nadim's. Nadim is easy going, super friendly, and caring. He took us caving and it was just AMAZING. The outside area of the house is very nice and perfect for a BBQ and bonfire. There was a bit of construction going on, but nothing that disrupted our stay. Nadim's father is very nice, he kept on checking whether we need anything. He makes delicious sugar-free apple juice!! If you are planning to visit Laqlouq/Akoura, I definitely recommend you to stay Nadim's.

Unfortunately we were not able to stay at Nadim Junior's beautiful place because there was a snowstorm. While Nadim said we were more than welcome to come anyway, he gave us lots of great advice about travelling safely through the mountains in the heavy snow. In the end we chose not to go but Nadim kept checking in with us to make sure we were OK. We missed out this time, but we'll definitely go back.

This is one of the most awesome locations in Lebanon - you cannot beat the views and so many beautiful hikes and places to visit.

The house and its garden are really beautiful. Me and a group of friends stayed there for a weekend and were able to spend a really fun and comfortable night. Nadim's a great and really friendly host. He's a tour guide as well, so he was able to recommend a number of great things to do in Laqlouk. I highly recommend this Airbnb for a great weekend getaway.

value for money ok. helpful. friendly. cheerful. nice garden and outside amenities

Our stay at Nadim's House was more than great. Nadim is a very good host, if you are roaming around the town or need anything he would be available to help. His place is just amazing, you can chill , have people around for a coffee, or even party.. it's a really nice place, will definitely visit again !

Nadim and his dad were extraordinary hosts! we really have a new family to visit in Laqlouq now. The venue is breathtaking, we had an amazing tour with Nadim, he was very caring, attentive and patient, we were 11 people and everything was perfectly well organized, the place was very clean and neat. Wil definitely come back again! Highly recommended space if youre looking for a retreat, hiking, caving, waterfall adventure, an amazing place to bbq and enjoy a camp fire at night with am astonishing view. Karin D.

הצמר מומלץ בחום, מיטש המארח היה לבבי מאוד, הבית מהמם, הנוף מדהים, הניקיון מצויין, בקיצור מומלץ בכל לב

מקום מדהים ביופיו, מיקום מעוה, בית מרווח (היינו 7 בוגרים 5 ילדים ושני תינוקות) והיה לנו נוח. ומיטש תמיד נמצא שם לכל דבר ועניין

The place was given spotless. Communication with Mitch was easy. The view was out of this world and the amenities are fabulous. Highly recommend the place for everyone - families, friends and even couples :)

Great place! great price-value ratio. we had grael time, can't wait for the next time

Upon arriving, I immediately wished we were staying longer. We spent a wonderful evening with a large group of friends at the castle. The eco-pool is large and we had fun swimming both at night and the next day. The house is large and comfortable. Beautiful wood and an amazing view. Mitch was super helpful with check in and check out. The whole area is gorgeous and I would definitely go back, and next time spend a few days there!

Mitch was just very very kind. We had a flat tier. We didn’t tell him anything. Waking up in the morning he already had a patch and an air pump waiting for us. We were able to temporarily fix the tier and drive to the workshop to have it fixed. We didn’t even asked for his help, he just noticed and went the extra mile. We also arrived very late and got him out of bed and still he was responsive and available.

We were an eclectic group of 7 friends. Most of the group thoroughly enjoyed the place and had no issues whatsoever. On the upside, the place is very unique and special. It can house a large group in 5 different bed rooms with two bathrooms on the bottom floor (one in a master bedroom, the other "public") and one shared bathroom on the second floor that services the 3 bedrooms there (there's another gallery bedroom that can be reached by a ladder; we didn't make use of it). We enjoyed the BBQ pit outside and enjoyed the wonderful view from the porch. However, we were surprised to find there's a whole separate unit right under the porch. The bed rooms were clean and were fitted with clean sheets and towels. Mitch was great and very hospitable. Our friends were the first to arrive and were welcomed by Suzi; Mitch dropped by later and gifted us with a bottle of wine from his vineyard. My wife and I are more urban and have high standards... We were uncomfortable with some aspects of the place; some of the windows weren't clean and the bathrooms felt slightly neglected; the hot tub could definitely use freshening up and the upstairs bathroom was small and the shower curtain has seen better days. All in all, a very good return on the price we paid. 3/5 for us urban folk, 4.5/5 according to our rural friends.

great place for families and friends the location is gorgeous especially at winter. we'd definatelly consider visiting again
