Stunning property to stay at. Plenty of room for everyone, but I feel like we did not take advantage of all of the amenities! The pool is lovely, the olive gardens make a beautiful backdrop for the Instagram worthy pictures that my daughter and her friends took before we went to a wedding. A bit tricky to get around without a car, but the property manager had given me the name of a taxi service and they were great.

A beautiful Rome countryside escape
We loved our time at the villa! What a beautiful home and grounds. Greeted by our host she gave us a guided tour of the home and the grounds and then took us to the local market for some groceries. That was so kind and one of the gardeners picked us up, which was so generous! He traveled by private car from the villa to Rome for our tours and days in the city. It was probably a 20 minute ride and totally worth staying in the beautiful countryside with all of gardens everywhere and a quiet retreat from the hustle and bustle of Rome. We would absolutely stay here again! Temperature at the time was very high upper 90s and the home was very comfortable and pleasant! A must stay! And the sunrise out our window was exquisite!
This villa was absolutely perfect for our family trip to Italy! The photos don’t fully capture its charm — it’s spacious, welcoming, and full of authentic character. The host was incredibly helpful even before our arrival, answering all my questions and assisting with our itinerary. During our stay, when an issue came up (through no fault of hers), she responded immediately and resolved it quickly.We loved being close enough to Rome to easily drive in for sightseeing, while still being able to return to the peaceful retreat of the villa each evening. We enjoyed relaxing mornings with coffee at the large outdoor table and delicious dinners at affordable local restaurants nearby. One of the highlights of the trip was the private chef the host arranged for us — a truly memorable experience.If you’re traveling with a large group, I can’t recommend this villa enough!

Mr. Citro
The property was charming. Big house with a great pool. The owners attention to detail was lacking. For a week stay, she left three towels per two guests, a large bath towel, smaller face towel, and a hand towel.
You must rent a car to visit Roma, buy grocery, or get anything from a store. The Villa is about 30 to 45 minutes to Roma. Uber is anywhere from $85 to 100 into Roma.
You must have an evening when Roberto comes in a cook for you. He made us a four course meal and it was outstanding.
The electrical system is substandard for the house size and needs updating. The gardener has sprinklers on timers and water comes into the small bedroom through the windows in the morning.
The house is affordable if you are willing to accept the inadequacies.

Such an idyllic spot!
Excellent spot! We went into Rome most days (via train) but certainly enjoyed the lovely grounds and spotless (giant!) swimming pool. Flavia responded immediately to all our questions and was super helpful in communicating with the courier who brought my lost luggage. Three generations of our family were perfectly comfortable the entire trip. (Amazing water pressure! Quiet and secluded- but not far from grocery store/local restaurants. Quality AC. Oh and great for different couples/families because the different en-suite bed/baths were very separate.) We dream of returning!

Spacious and pleasant country villa for our extended family holiday
Large villa with spacious dining and sitting areas. Good five bedrooms with bathrooms. Extensive grounds round the house with dining area under a beautiful pergola. Superb swimming pool. We had a great weeks holiday with 4 couples and 4 small children. We cooked every night for ourselves. Enough room for everybody to be able to relax. Good contact with the owners.

Villa Outside Rome
Property Manager Flavia is a great communicator & will facilitate your stay. Arranged a wonderful chef Jasmin for us who was both a great cook & would serve & clean kitchen after even when not part of her job. Villa requires an auto to get anywhere you want to go. Rome traffic is ridiculous if you travel into city after 7AM. While villa is close (14 miles to center of city), often takes over an hour. Parking requires paid Parcheggio for safety. Nearby town Formello has some very good restaurants, church for Mass, local food markets & friendly people. Pool at villa is great for staying home & relaxing.

Awesome Property
I rented Flavia's property for a 10 people get together. Location was perfect for us, close enough to the city of Rome while being remote and serene. Beautiful countryside. Everything was exactly as pictured. We loved the outdoor space, dining area with the open fire ovens, pool lounge area was comfortable. Each bedroom had a bathroom. Kitchen is well stacked. Communication with Flavia was seamless, all questions were answered quickly, check in was easy, I appreciated Flavia met us at the property and walked us through it. Highly recommend and would love to come back.
Thank you Flavia!

We LOVED our stay!! So much that my mom decided to stay there with the children during the day while we went into Rome because they were having so much fun!!
The location is beautiful and safe with plenty of room for outdoor activities. The extra touches like ping pong table and games were icing on the cake!!
The beds and rooms were all very comfortable and even the sleeper couch was super comfortable!! Such a great stay - we’re already talking about renting it again for another vacation.

Great Location to Relax
We had a wonderful time in Villa Anna! The house is in a quiet, peaceful area. Plenty to do on site for a variety of ages, plentiful parking and close enough for a short drive to Roma, the beach and the train station. We stayed here with a large family with a wide age range. The property was beautiful with enough activities nearby for those who wanted to stay local while others ventured a little further away. Highly recommend and would stay there again whenever we return to the area.

Great last minute booking
The villa was clean, comfortable and spacious. Huge pool with plenty of sun beds and seating areas - we spent a lot of time outdoors! Fabulous outdoor eating area with pizza ovens. All necessary amenities were provided. It would have been better for us to have double beds in all rooms, although we could push the beds together - maybe ask guests beforehand what arrangement they would like? The hosts were warm and friendly, responded to our booking straight away despite it being the day before and replied to all texts immediately whilst we were there. The villa location was perfect for us because we wanted a rural villa with a pool that was close to Rome. There were local supermarkets within 10 minutes drive and you could be in central Rome in 30-45 mins having a gelato! We had a fabulous 5 night stay and couldn’t have wished for anything more and would definitely go back!

The villa is a beautiful property easily accommodating 10 people. Our family ranges in age from 17-73 and we were comfortable. Nearby shopping and 10 minutes ride to train station that commutes directly to Rome with access to Metro.

Lovely late summer family holiday near Rome
Thoroughly enjoyed our 1 week stay at Villa Anna last week (end September). Party of 6 with one 3 year old. House was beautiful, clean, well furnished. Lots of space and stunning bathrooms - one per bedroom. Kitchen is small compared to other room sizes but fine for our party size and we made good use of the pizza oven / bbq area outside.
Wifi was quite poor but then it is a very rural location so wasnt a surprise to us (travelling from a rural English location with a similar issue).
Pool area and size is fantastic. It is a proper pool for swimming (which we were aware of in advance) so only area of improvement for us would have been a pool with steps or shallow area for our little boy as he found the cold water and depth too overwhelming to really use the pool - we anticipated this though so went prepared with an inflatable dinghy to use as a boat for him and double up as paddling pool! We also made 3 trips to Lake Bracchio which was warmer than the pool and such clear, still water he had a great time playing and swimming (as did we all!)
We found a small beach at Anguillara Sabazia which had a kids play area and was lovely and clean. Food choices limited in September but ok for us, was only a 25 minute drive.
A trip to Bracchio itself to visit the castle Orsini- Odescalchi which was amazing with stunning views over the lake then down to the water side - not quite as clean as Anguillara but more food options. 40 minute drive.
We took the train from Labaro station one day into Rome and did a few sites, had lunch and spent time in Villa Borgheze park - perfect for kids.
We ordered a meal from caterers via Flavia for the first night which was excellent and lasted 2 nights as so much food!
Flavia was helpful through out booking and during our stay. Would definitely recommend if you are a group looking for a rural location with trips to Rome city an option. Would definitely return if we could fit it into our schedules!

Simply the best!
Wow!! What a find! We stayed here for 2 weeks in August, 2 families, 9 people in total. The villa is great as it it has 2 upstairs, one at each end of the property with a master bedroom ensuite, so great for 2 families.
The pool is the best I have experienced at any rental, great for the kids to play in and great to just swim up and down in.
The garden is amazing and well tendered by Mario the gardener who is very friendly, he keeps the garden and the pool looking amazing and is in most days.
If you like home cooking, look around the garden where you will find a mass of fresh Rosemary and Thyme!! Be sure to fire up the pizza oven! We did not have a clue how to use it but a simple You Tube video did the trick and the pizza’s all home made were incredible.
A car is advisable but its about a 10 min drive to several different train stations where you can park all day for EUR 1.50 and take the train into Rome for EUR 1 each!! We also took high speed trains up to Florence and down to Pompeii, I would recommend both trips.
Restaurants can be found in the local town of Formello (5 min drive) or venture a little further to towns like La Storta, we found a great restaurant on the last evening.
Pam’s is the local supermarket, which caters for most needs, wine starts at EUR 2.49 a bottle and is really good and large bottle of Moretti Beer were 73 cents!!
If you are looking for a villa in a stunning setting with great facilities, look no further, you will not be disappointed. The garden lights up in the evening all around the pool and nice to sit down by the pool with glass of vino gazing at the stars and watch in the night time wildlife come to life.
Flavia who owns the property is very helpful and responsive before and during the stay and offers great advise.
I really cannot fault this vila, completely recommend it and would love to go back at some point

Wishing We Were Still There!
We stayed in Vila Ana for one week in June. The entire property is surrounded by beautiful and fragrant vegetation, such as olive trees, bay leaf, rosemary, sage and lavender. The house is spacious, clean and very comfortable. We enjoyed spending time at the pool surrounded by olive trees. Flavia was very helpful and responsive throughout the booking process and entire time we were at the villa. The villa is a short drive from Rome and both airports. During our stay we visited Rome, Tivoli and Frascati. Tivoli is a beautiful town in the mountains outside of Rome and is worth visiting. We booked a wine tasting and pizza making tour in Minardi Winery in Frascati. I have to say it was one of the best days we spent in Italy. I would highly recommend this tour. Both adults and kids had a lot of fun making pizzas, tasting delicious appetizers and wine. We have also ordered dinner from Flavia on one of the nights. The food was delicious and Tiramisu was to die for. Flavia and Giuseppe, thank you for hosting us. We have created lifetime memories at your beautiful villa and hope to return sometime in the future.
