My husband and I stayed at Casa Flavia for 6 nights as a part of our honeymoon in Italy. Roberta met us and brought our luggage up to the apartment. The space is a great size for two people and it very comfortable. We especially enjoyed the efficient little kitchen where we made most of our meals and the beautiful patio where we shared those meals. The apartment is in a great location, minutes away from the Duomo, restaurants and many specialty food shops. Orvieto is a delightful place to visit with wonderful food, places to walk, and an old world charm. Roberta was so helpful and kind and that really made our experience wonderful. I would definitely go back to Casa Flavia.

My husband, daughter and I stayed in Casa Flavia for a week in July 2011. It is the perfect hill town to visit after leaving Roma, just a 90 minute train ride from Termini Station. We rented a car from Hertz which is across the street from the Orvieto train station. While in Orvieto we visited many hill towns in Tuscany, and also enjoyed the town of Orvieto and the surrounding areas immensely. Casa Flavia is very comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped to cook a full meal, and the outside terrace is the perfect place to enjoy it. There was a wi-fi connection in the master bedroom and terrace area. Roberta is the perfect hostess. Orvieto is enchanting and beautiful. We all thoroughly enjoyed our vacation there, and would visit again.

Very nice! The pictures on the internet do not do this property justice, the rooms are bigger than what they appear and there is a large private terrace which has a very nice atmosphere. The apartment was clean and comfortable. The location is quiet and close to many attractions and markets. Roberta, the owner is very nice and accommodating. I would highly recommend this property to someone visiting Orvieto, I felt like it was a home away from home.

Owner response:Thank You Suzie ! I hope You spent good time in Florence ciao Roberta

My husband and I rented Casa Flavia in April and May 2011 and it was the perfect place for us. I can't imagine a better small town than Orvieto to live in and really get to know Italy. We enjoyed the sites, the great restaurants, and the friendly people in this utterly charming town. Casa Flavia is a lovely apartment and the terrace really makes it an incredible place to stay - we enjoyed many meals and glasses of wine on the terrace. Roberta and her family are gracious hosts and made us feel very welcome. We explored Venice, Florence, Assisi, and Rome from this excellent home away from home. Highly recommended!

My girlfriend and I were coming from Rome to Orvieto and this place was a huge welcome. Roberta met us at the funicolare and drove us to the apartment. After getting settled in and tidy, we set out on the quaint little town of Orvieto. Since we had a kitchen, we used it immensly with the great food from the region sold around town. The only downside was that we were there during rainy week, but we made up for it by getting plenty of food and wine and acting like a local. We definitely recommend this place and hope to make it a destination in the future.

Casa Flavia

We stayed at Casa Flavia for 10 days recently and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It is a delightful apartment, tastefully furnished and well set up for folk who like to buy local produce and eat at home. The terrace was lovely and Casa Flavia was as described, right in the heart of Orvieto, which really is a gorgeous town on the border of Umbria and Lazio. Only one criticism, there was no CD player and after 10 days we were pining for some music. There was a reasonable selection of books which helped compensate for the lack of music. Highly recommended.

My sister and I stayed in Orvieto - Casa Flavia for three nights in July. We were celebrating my sister's 60th Birthday. The apartment is fabulous, great location, very clean with lots of light. What a wonderful treat to have a terrace. The shops and shop owners were very nice and the location of the apartment is wonderful. The Farmer's Market on Wednesday and Saturday was fantastic - fresh local produce, meats, cheese, any type of clothing or jewlry with a local atmosphere. Highly recommend and plan to return.

Just back from staying in Casa Flavia. This clean, comfortable, well-equipped apartment very soon felt like home. We enjoyed shopping at the little stores and shops within easy walking distance. We spent many pleasant hours on the lovely terrace. It was a perfect base to visit many nearby towns and sights. An easy train ride to many of the other cities including Rome and Florence. We would highly recommend a stay at this apartment. Roberta and her family were very friendly and helpful. We hope to return again real soon.

We loved Roberta's apartment. Beautiful, clean, spacious, with a wonderful patio. Roberta was very friendly and helpful from the time we started our booking to the end of our trip. The apartment had everything we needed and was in a very good location.
