I cannot say enough good things about this house, or the fabulous hosts. This far exceeding our expectations for a family vacation! The property is otherworldly magical - it feels like you are on an exotic tropical island - and the house is beautiful, clean, and thoughtfully appointed (right down to the vintage Pac Man machine!). But it was really the hosts that made this so memorable. They are gracious, warm, and highly responsive; they really go above and beyond. Gus was able to arrange for us an incredible outdoor gourmet BBQ with a chef and bartender at literally five hours notice, and it was a fantastic night we will never forget. We will absolutely be back!
The castle la florentia was the best vacation our family has ever had! The property and house are just MAGICAL. We didn't even leave the house much with the pool and amazing property other than to visit the beach which is only a few minutes to drive! Not only was the house amazing we were treated like family! This is such a special place and we feel so blessed to have been able to stay here! We can't wait to come back! We already miss the house and people so much!
We rented this home for my husbands birthday with friends. To call it a home is an understatement, it's a private tropical resort paradise.
The grandeur of the historic interior with the exotic grounds made it trolley a one of a kind experience.
