We had two families of 5 stay at Villa Simonetta and the house was perfect! It was a perfect mix of beach town living and a short train ride from downtown Rome for sight seeing. Highly recommend getting the bikes and the local wine tasting, we loved our time there!

This is a unique place to stay when site seeing in Italy. The chance to combine a recreational beach vacation with tourism is rare. Our hostess and her staff were particularly accommodating with helpful recommendations to assist with our interest in traditional tourism and access to points of interest rarely seen. We as a family highly recommend this villa for any age traveler.

Villa Simonetta and the town of Fregene lived up to all our expectations. The Villa had everything we needed. We were two families travelling together. It had enough room for us all to have our private space but could also accommodate everyone when we hung out together. We spent most of our time in the backyard. Adults around the large dining table and kids playing ping pong and taking a dip in the Jacuzzi hot tub (which was cooled down for the summer) - we also enjoyed the outdoor shower as a quick way to cool off when coming home. The kitchen and bathrooms were well appointed. And the linens were high quality. The AC worked very well. Despite being at the Villa in August, we were very comfortable. Most days we just had the large sliding doors and windows open and this kept us cool. The location of the Villa was perfect for us. We wanted a beach holiday with a few days in Rome. We rented bikes, but often just walked. Beach clubs were a 15 min walk and the town centre (with stores and restaurants) a 12 min walk. There is a well appointed grocery store 7 min walk and a cafe with gelato/coffee/baked goods a 5 min walk We had an amazing dinner by chef Maurizio - very reasonably priced for what you get and the food was the best we had all vacation. Make sure to use Maurizio the driver. His prices were cheaper than taxis and he was very nice and reliable. Simonetta was a great host! Made us feel comfortable in her house and her town, and was easy to talk to.

This home was perfect for our multigenerational family of 10 with comfortable beds for all and plenty of bathrooms. The kids enjoyed the ping pong table as well as the TV with Netflix access. The adults loved the hottub and proximity to beachside restaurants. Simonetta was great with communications and fulfilling special requests like bike rentals and baby needs. Fregene is a lovely beach town little known to western tourists but with close proximity to Rome and the airport. Our family would love to return one day to make more wonderful memories.

We had a wonderful stay in Simonetta’s villa! The communication with Simonetta was outstanding, really responsive and super helpful and great advice and tips! We really enjoyed our trip and definitely would consider coming back. The house was very comfortable, great accommodations in every room. In the Master Bedroom there is a great tub although take a shower was unexpected unless you use the downstairs shower. The jacuzzi and sauna were a very nice treat and overall we had a fabulous time and very comfortable stay. Thank you Simonetta, your a fantastic hostess and you made our trip a great success!! Thank you!!

Simonetta was extremely friendly and helpful. Lovely villa with great access to the beach. Very comfortable. We had the recommended chef come for an evening and it was great food. We also did the recommended winery tour and Christian was an outstanding host. Awesome hot tub. Only difficulty is transportation to nearby train station. Taxi and bus are not fully reliable. Need to plan accordingly.

The house was everything that was promised. The pool outside was great, the sauna as well and the rooms were nice as well. It's a very short way to the beach and there are two supermarkets in walking distance. The best part was that Simonetta is extremely helpful, gives great recommendations and always assists with questions. The only downside is that the bikes that you can rent are not the best. That's not Simonettas fault, there is only one bike rental shop in town and it just doesn't have the best bikes. I went with some friends (20-25 years) and we had a great time.

Simonetta is really hospitable host. The house was nice and exactly the same as at the pictures. The kitchen was good equipped. All was clean and look fresh. We have spent there very good time.
