This home is managed by Gaetano

This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Gaetano and his team have a handful of places in Italy that they’re responsible for, and we’re big fans. It’s worth noting that it might not be Gaetano himself who checks you in, but the rest of the team are all really nice as well.
