Stunning villa with private pool in peaceful olive grove

Casa Toti was completed in October 2011. It is a new build but built in the Abruzzeze style in old Maiella stone. Inside and out are beautiful arches and stunning use of stone. The ground floor has vaulted ceilings and the entire house has terracotta tiles with marble detailing. Beneath the traditional features is a totally up to date house with underfloor heating, central cooling system, photovoltaic energy panels and every mod con! A large hall leads into the kitchen/dining room and then into the sitting room. Both have French windows onto the shaded veranda with a large table for outside dining and a comfortable sofa and armchairs from which to soak up the view.
There is 1 bedroom downstairs, with French doors onto the veranda, with an en suite shower room suitable for the elderly or guests with mobility problems.
There are 3BR on the 1st floor, 1 with a balcony, and the 5th bedroom is in the tower, also with its own balcony. All bedrooms have en suite shower rooms and lovely view.


Outside areas: The swimming pool (open May to end of October) has Roman steps and is 14m x 6m with a diving board. It has stunning views to the mountains and is surrounded by a terrace area with plenty of loungers. The veranda has everything for summer, outdoor living and has steps down leading to the pool area. Bedroom 1 leads out onto the veranda and bedrooms 2 and 5 have balconies with table and chairs facing the mountains. The house is set in an olive grove of approximately 120 old olive trees.

Beautiful Villa with Spectacular views
Casa Toti is the perfect place for a family vacation. Located away from the crowded tourist attractions, it is the perfect spot to experience the beauty, tranquility and friendly people of Abruzzi. It is also a beautiful place to just stay put and relax by the pool. Accommodations were spacious, comfortable and clean. Everywhere you turned was another breathtaking view. We were a large group with ages ranging from 3 to 83 years of age. Everyone was pleased with the accommodations and amenities. There were absolutely no complaints during our entire 5-week stay. The property is well maintained by Luigi and Gabriella. We looked forward to friendly conversations with Luigi each day in Italian and English with the help of google. Plenty of helpful local information was provided in a Welcome Book by Jane who was always available and responsive to our questions and need for assistance. The surrounding Abruzzo area is beautiful, with mountains ,beaches and the villages of Penne, Elice, Castiliente and Citta Sant Angelo close by. The restaurant at the bottom of the hill is a big plus and the food is excellent. We totally enjoyed the Abruzzi experience and highly recommend Casa Toti without hesitation. You do need to rent or hire a car at this location.

What an amazing home! The views are breathtaking. The house is very well-equipped, spacious and very comfortable. Jane is very kind and quick to respond to any questions. We loved seeing Luigi every morning as he took care of the property. We had a meal prepared for us too which was one of the greatest evenings ever! We definitely look forward to returning to this amazing spot! Thank you!!

Jubilee break away
A beautiful well equipped property situated in the most beautiful setting, overlooking the mountains and rolling Abruzzo hills. The huge swimming pool was divine (it was 35 + degrees when we stayed), the bbq, boules, table tennis, and sun loungers used to the max. The terrace with views was great for whiling away the evenings and all bedrooms had views and their own ensuite. A very well equipped property overlooking the lap of the God's. Simply stunning. Can't wait to go back. Ps San lorenzo winery at the bottom of the hill a must for wine lovers.

Absolutely Perfect!
We were a group of 9 adults and absolutely loved our stay in Casa Toti. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need, the pool is not heated but it was warm enough and cleaned every morning by Luigi or his wife. The views are stunning and pictures do not do it justice. Communication with Jane was super easy. The only downside: mosquitoes! Definitely bring bug spray if you plan to spend some time outside.

A taste of heaven.
One cannot describe the experience of arriving at this magical setting. The house itself is beautifully appointed; but the location, the view, and the maintenance of the grounds and pool are stunning. Perfection would have be achieved if only the kitchen had been somewhat cleaner and the sofa upholstery freshened.

Paradise and heaven all rolled in to one!
Our third visit and as ever, just sublime. We all love this place and frankly are extremely jealous of the owners as it would is the perfect place and location to have a villa. Put it this way, if they ever wanted to sell it, we would sell a child or two to pay for it!!!
