Villa Gelso 24/6 to 1/7

Villa Gelso offered all we needed with regard to accommodation and space, was spotlessly clean and well presented on arrival. The pool and outdoor space was outstanding as were the views and peace and quiet around the villa. Service from the agency was extremely responsive and friendly

Amazing stay at the beautiful Villa Gelso on Lake Garda

The villa was wonderful and provided great accommodation for the 7 adults and 4 children in our group. It was fully equipped and all appliances and furniture were of excellent quality. There was a perfect outdoor dining area and a beautiful pool. The pool area is a good size and a great layout. It was well used by everyone. The villa is in a quiet residential area which we liked. Our main contact with Holiday Garda was Novella Battani She was so helpful. Her communication was brilliant and she replied to any query immediately..We were so grateful for all her help.. We can't think.of any improvement and would definitely recommend Holiday Garda. Novella organised the transfers 2 and from.the airport which was excellent and there is a lot of useful.information in the villa.

Amazing Place!

Wow! What a wonderful villa, with an amazing, huge garden. The pool is huge, the rooms big and comfy (great, comfortable beds!). Clean, modern bathrooms, the kitchen well stocked with dishes and glasses...what more can I say! We didn't use any of the luxury services we could have ordered on top, but the communication with Novella was great. We would book again in a heatbeat!

Sehr schöne Villa mit hervorragender Ausstattung

Das Haus ist modern renoviert und hervorragend ausgestattet, das weitläufige Gartengrundstück sehr gepflegt. Mehrere Sitzgruppen innen und außen, sehr schöner großer Pool. Das einzige was fehlt, ist eine Außendusche am Pool. Wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt und den Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Service und Betreuung durch die Agentur ausgezeichnet. Wir kommen wieder!

Familienurlaub

Ein schönes, gepflegtes und sauberes Haus. Die Vermietungagentur ( Frau Novella Battani ) war sehr hilfsbereit und sehr freundlich. Selbst ein defekt des Elektronischen Gartentor wurde in kürzester Zeit behoben. Die Villa ist Ideal für Familienurlaub, oder für mehrere Freunde mit Kindern.
