Casa Marola, house with character

This is a lovely house which has been modernised very well. It is very well equipped. As well as being excellent throughout inside, Stefano has managed to create good external areas to sit; one of them, on the roof, with great views of the countryside around. The house was extremely clean, thanks to a hard-working lady who lives nearby and visits weekly to clean.The house is in a quiet cul-de-sac at the top of a steep hill. Gabicce Monte is small but has several good eating places around its square, as well as good views of the resorts below.
Gabicce Monte is also an excellent base for exploring the area by car. Nice excursions including Urbino, Ravenna, Rimini, Pesaro, San Marino, Gradara, Cattolica, Riccione and Misano.

Fantastic
Stayed for 2 nights. The house was not what expected, it was much more. Loved the look and feel of this house. The attention towards detail can be seen everywhere. Looks like loving hands restored this property. Views are beautiful. Beds and furniture very comfortable. The host had the house stocked with groceries and goodies. Host went out of his way to pick us up and drop us off at the train station. We we’re having a hard time getting a taxi and we reached out and he called us one. I have never had a host like Stefano! I would give him 10 stars if I could! We hope to come back one day,

Incredible views and hospitality
Stefano kindly welcomed us upon arrival and was a wonderful host throughout our stay! He was easy to contact if we had any questions and supplied fruits, pasta, coffee, and more, which was a very thoughtful gesture! The views from the rooftop terrace were incredible, one of the many highlights from our trip to Italy! Thanks Stefano!

Casa Marola -visit from Lithuania.
This beautifully preserved family house has everything you need to have a restful enjoyable holiday! We were impressed by the history of the place and its surroundings. The house itself has amazing views from the top terrace and we used terrace to have a morning coffee. Beds very comfy and each room has AC units which is very useful in the hot summer and i gues in the cold winter. Also, fully equipped kitchen with coffee maker, dishwasher and washing machine made our holiday effortless. Very good Wi-Fi The location was perfect for us and absolutely 100% safe. The local restaurants and cafes are few minutes away but because of the specifics of the area, you can't hear any noise or music from them being at home. We rented a car and we had no problem to park it on the street next to the house. If you want to park next to the property don't rent a larger car as the roads around the accommodation are very narrow. However, there is a big parking next to the church. The little funny train-bus was running to the beach from Gabicce Monte to Gabicce Mare and return ticket is €5, single €3. You can get discounted tickets if you buy 20 of them. The time table is very accurate so you can plan your day. The hospitality of the owner exceeded expectations 😀 We didn't speak any Italian but the owner Stefano, speaks good English so we had no problem in communication. He was very helpful and gave us advice what to visit/see and how to get there. Always available on WhatsApp if needed!

Great place to stay and host beyond compare
We really enjoyed our stay at Cass Marola, a home with history and charm on the top of Gabbice Monte. It has a lovely roof top terrace with beautiful views. The bed was comfortable, everything was clean and well cared for, and the kitchen was extremely well-equipped and stocked with everything we needed. Stefano and his daughter were the best hosts, even providing us with fruit, wine and groceries on our arrival! They also went the extra mile by providing us with tips on things to see and do, and emailing us recipes. We've never seen this attention to detail and level of service in any of the places we have stayed at before. Highly recommended!

A wonderful, clean and peaceful apartment with huge ceiling terrace(s) and great view
A wonderful, clean and peaceful apartment in Gabicce Monte with huge ceiling terrace(s) and great view. In the kitchen there are all the needed equipment (and even more) what you could hope for. It was also a big plus to have a modern induction stove instead of having a gas stove. As a welcoming gesture, there were plenty of wine and food (bread, desserts, tomatos, cheese, paninis, fruits, milk, water, olive oil, butter, salad, pastas, tea, coffee) just waiting to be used freely without any extra cost during our vacation. This was the first time than somebody has really put this kind of effort just to make quests enjoy and relax from their arrival onwards. Other rooms, toilette and shower are in great condition. The apartment is very clean and an elderly woman from the next house also cleaned the apartment once during our 7 days stay. This apartment has something special: huge ceiling terrace(s), in which you have the 360 degree view to the mountains, the Adriatic Sea etc. Really wonderful place just to enjoy about the view, the wines, reading etc. Stefano and his family were extra ordinary helpful from the moment we reserved the apartment and during and after our vacation. We got invaluable information and advices which helped us in planning our vacation in Marche, highly appreciated. Words cannot express our gratitude, a million thanks to Stefano and to whole Cecchini family. Hopefully we are able to return someday to this wonderful area and Casa Marola. Tips: Car recommended for travelling in Marche. Parking in front of the apartment or nearby. Note that the streets are very narrow, do not even try to drive up to the apartment with a bigger car. If all the nearby places are occupied you need to reverse downwards in narrow streets which is not easy. We had rented Fiat 500L and even that was about the max size for narrow streets. Great restaurants nearby (eg. Posillipo, fantastic sunset view, reservation recommended in summer). Bigger food shops (eg. Conad) with versatile options is in Gabicce Mare, address VIA ALDO MORO 4. A smaller food shop in Gabicce Monte as well. Self-service laundry: (Lavanderie Self Service Easy Wash) in Via Panoramica 12 in Gabicce Mare, it’s inexpensive (open from 6-24 ). Casa Marola è un appartamento eccelente. La nostra vacanza è stata molto rilassante e soleggiata. Le terrazze sono un paradiso quando c´è l´afa. Grazie mille per Stefano e la famiglia Cecchini per le ottime condizioni! Sami e Satu

Great relaxing stay next to the Adriatic
Wow, what a place! I really just can't say enough about both Casa Marola and it's owner Stefano. Originally my husband and I just booked two nights, but after keeping up a pretty exhausting pace we decided to slow down and stay an additional two nights. Stefano was such a gracious and accommodating host. He had everything for us to make a meal (actually a few meals), including wine! Coffee and a plethora of breakfast goodies. The house was so clean and obviously well maintained. The roof deck is something special, perfect for late afternoon drinks and taking in the scenery. Also, this house is a great base for exploring the area. Stefano was also excellent at giving us suggestions of things to do, his love of the area is obvious and something we appreciated greatly. It had us exploring things that we otherwise would not have found. Great list of all the business you would need in the area. My only recommendation to future travelers is if you are taking a car - travel compact! Our rental car company graciously "upgraded" us (meaning they no longer had any compact cars left by the time we got there) to a larger vehicle and I can tell you that Gabicce Monte is definitely a town not equipped for larger vehicles. Although honestly, we made it work, there is plenty of parking a very short walk away in town if the narrow roads make you nervous. I would recommend this property in a heartbeat and can't wait to return. Do yourselves a favor and take a stroll down to Osteria del Sorriso, some of the best seafood I have ever had, and practically a stones throw from Casa Marola. Thank you Stefano for everything.

Nice and quiet home
The house is very nice and located in a very quiet area. Stefano is the nicest person in the world I believe, he has been caring about our well being all the way. First when you arrive, the house is full with food. There is pasta for the whole week, wine, beer, fruits, vegetables, eggs, cereals, bread, coffee, and much more. The weather has not been nice while we were there, so he offered that we stay an extra night for free. Checkout is the easiest in the world, just close the door and leave... And at the end they drop he offers you a little present. Thabks you so much Stefano! Now the important things that we were surprised about: - The house is very small and due to its location, downstairs area is very dark. The fact that the weather was not nice didn't allow us to use the terrace and the rooftop, therefore we were in the kitchen.livingThe house is very nice and located in a very quiet area.
