Vacanza

La casa è veramente molto bella sia esternamente che internamente. Arredata con gusto e raffinatezza risponde esattamente alle necessità di una vacanza che si ricorderà con piacere. Posizionata fronte mare nel centro di Sami offre inoltre tutte le comodità ed è un ottimo punto di partenza per le spiagge dell'isola.

One week at Olvio Living by the Sea

We stayed in Olvio one week in the period 12-19 August. We found a very nice apartment, well furnished, very clean and with all facilities. Our vacation was very nice and Anna and Cristiana were very kind and helpful giving us all the information to visit the northern part of the island as well as suggestions of taverns to taste local food.
