A lovely Italian hideaway

Our family of four (children ages 10 and 7) had a wonderful holiday at Casa Ulqini. The house is lovely and cool, plenty of space and very comfortable beds. The pool area is gorgeous, although we felt it needed another shaded area or parasol. There were only 3 sun loungers and the covers were very old - threadbare and mouldy, so they could do with replacing! Kitchen was well equipped with a dishwasher outside. House manager was great - very prompt response with any questions, and we had an urgent issue with the pool filter during our stay (we came home to a green pool!) but they sorted it for us immediately. It’s a great base for exploring Pisa, Lucca, trips to the beach, Bologna and more. The local village itself is lovely with a fabulous cafe, pasties, pizzeria all within 5 mins walk. The chickens close by that liked to explore the land around the house were friendly and made us feel as home!

DO NOT BOOK

This property was a nightmare from the beginning. No taxi drivers in town will drive up the driveway to the property. My elderly mother had to walk up 3 terraces at a 60 degree incline to reach the property. And once was there we were basically trapped because there is no walking path. The interior had nearly as many bugs as the exterior. Paul, informed us the insects were harmless and only looking for food. I wish we had left then The property has only 1 air conditioning unit in the upstairs bedroom. We were instructed to keep the windows and shutters closed all day to keep the house as cool as possible. The light bright villa soon became a dark, hot cave. We tried to use the pool outside to cool off, but unfortunately there are several wasps nests creating a dangerous environment in which my youngest son was stung. I mentioned this to Paul and he told us to take care of it ourselves.We were also told to open the windows at night to cool the place off. Unfortunately the fires burning in Lucca created an intense blanket of smoke in the air and we were unable to breath with the windows opened and had to suffer in the night with the heat as well. Temperatures outside were nearly 100 degrees and inside 90 degrees.After the first night I reported these conditions to paul and to vrbo letting both know we felt unsafe in the properry and we wanted a refund and to stay somewhere else. Paul refused and vrbo instructed me to wait 24 hours for the owner to respond.The next day we noticed a plume of smoke rising in the hills across the street from the property. I sent a message to paul with a picture in which he responded he was aware of it. Then in the second picture you can see the smoke getting larger and blacker. I then called paul and let him know we felt unsafe. He told me to call him when the house was burning down. Feeling very unsafe and knowing the owner and property manager only cared about their money and not at all about our safety, we immediately evacuated the property. I've called vrbo several times and am still waiting to hear from someone. This has been a nightmare for me and my family. I have been using vrbo for over 20 years and this is the first bad experience I've had. I see now all the reviews for this property are several years old. Booking this property was the biggest mistake we made on our 6 week trip to Italy. We left after only 2 nights and requested a refund. The owner refuses. Now it is up to VRBO to do what is right.

Great Villa with Stunning Views

Lovely property and well maintained. The property manager Paul was very friendly and accommodating. We arrived late in the evening and he arranged to meet us at the villa with no issues. He gave us all the information we needed for our stay and showed us around the property. The Villa is just on the outskirts of Fornoli and you can walk into the town, approx 5/10 minutes, where there is fantastic cafes, restaurants, shops and a bakery. The driveway is very steep but this is the case with most Italian properties and you get used to it quickly The Villa itself was lovely, well kept and has stunning views from all around the large terrace. The pool is great for cooling down in the hot weather. The outside kitchen and outdoor eating area were also great additions and we used them daily. We found it to be half an hour away from Lucca itself. Great if you want to spend lots of time there.
