Villa Francesca Relais

The positives ….beautiful place, the pool area is stunning and the views are amazing. Location is good, close to the castle and lovely towns within a short drive. Decor is good, apartment is very clean and modern. A really beautiful place The negatives…we were staying in the biggest room / apartment. So we didn’t get breakfast included like the other guests. That’s fine, we had our own kitchen. But then again, we paid more for it so I think breakfast would have been nice to be included. Even just once or twice (stayed for a week). But the biggest issue we had was being told we shouldn’t be in the main building. We couldn’t sit in the lounge area or walk through it, that was for other guests. Which is in conflict with the information on their own website. I think we saw them fuss over the other guests at breakfast, and it just felt like we weren’t as appreciated as the guests which was frustrating as we splurged on this accommodation in comparison to everywhere else we stayed during our Italy holiday. The flat was a little small too, plus the outdoor private terrace was completely overlooked by another rooms balcony. Though luckily they didn’t use it much I think it’s probably a wonderful place for a couple to stay, lots of positives and beautiful setting, stunning pool area. Also, our Italian isn’t great so that didn’t help us in chatting to hosts and getting a rapport. But I honestly felt it was a bit overpriced compared to the service we experienced. I think maybe not the most family friendly Maybe all just a language barrier (but then again, the guy who runs the place told us on the first day that his wife had better English so she’d come and chat to us that day). She never came the whole week to see how we were. I’m not expecting them to speak English, we could muddle through. But she just didn’t come and welcome us or answer our issues I just hope the owners read this and take it on board as I think it has so much potential and is a wonderful, beautiful place. I just felt a little let down

This place is incredible, tucked away from the madness of the riviera and yet close enough to the sea. The building itself is unique, and the decor is fantastic. The food is excellent, and the room is spotless and classy. The host, Mr R., ensured that all our needs were met and every detail was taken care of. We had a great time and will go back soon.

My wife and I spent two wonderful days at Villa Francesca Relais. Our hosts could not do enough for us, providing us with a beautiful late lunch on arrival, selecting a lovely bottle of wine, with amazing views of Gradara castle. Recommendations were provided for dinner, our hosts booking the restaurants for both nights. The room was perfect - luxurious, peaceful, fabulous bed and superb views. We could not recommend Villa Francesca more highly and really look forward to returning for a longer visit.

From the structure itself (built 3 yrs ago) to the furniture and artwork, everything is well appointed and beautifully adorned. By far, the most comfortable bed and pillows we’ve ever experienced in a hotel. The rooms have names, but aren’t referenced on the website. Ours was Ofelia (a junior suite) and it connected to Beatrice. Along with Aurelia and Penelope they look toward the pool. The other rooms (Lavinia, Ottavia, Francesca & Flamingo) have a view of the castle. It was very quiet and relaxing. We enjoyed the pool, especially during the hot afternoons. One of the owners brought drinks out to some of the guests. One point of clarification from their website: it features a restaurant, but it’s not open to the public and they only serve breakfast and lunch.

Sämtliche Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich und kompetent. Sehr schöne Anlage mit tollem Poolbereich. Super bequeme Liegestühle. Fantastische Aussicht auf Gradara. Der Gastgeber war sehr bemüht und hat uns diverse Ausflugtipps gegeben. Leckeres Frühstück. Als Buffet gibt es eine Auswahl an Früchte, Cerealien, Joghurts und leckere selbstgemachte Kuchen. Eierspeisen, Aufschnitt/Käse und Getränke können direkt bestellt werden. Das Laden unseres E-Autos hat unkompliziert geklappt. Wir können es sehr empfehlen.

Schon bei der Ankunft verströmt die Villa exclusive Eleganz. Ein elektrisches Tor öffnet den weitläufigen Garten und lässt uns ankommen. Die Begrüßung ist herzlich, das Zimmer und die Annehmlichkeiten der Villa werden präsentiert. Ansonsten halten sich die hier Beschäftigten vornehm im Hintergrund und sind erst zur Stelle, wenn jemand gebraucht wird. Somit fühlt man sich wie zuhause und genießt die Annehmlichkeiten der Villa fast privat in vollen Zügen. Für unser E-Auto stehen 2 Ladestationen zur Verfügung, der Strom stammt aus der hauseigenen PV-Anlage als Carport. Die erste Ladung ist kostenlos, jede weitere kostet €12. Finden wir mehr als fair. Frühstück gibts ab 8:30. Eine Auswahl an Kuchen, Früchten, Brot und Croissants steht am Buffet zur Verfügung. Eiergerichte, Proscutto, Salami, Käse etc. wird nach Wunsch in der Küche zubereitet. Es fehlt an nichts. Der Chef des Hauses kümmert sich persönlich um Espresso und Dopio ;) Dass die 8 Zimmer, die Terrassen, die Aufenthaltsräume und der tolle Pool exclusiv und hochwertig sind, braucht nicht extra erwähnt werden. Die ruhige Lage am Hügel sorgt für Rückzugsmöglichkeit und Abgeschiedenheit. Die Nähe zu zahllosen Ausflugszielen, dem Meer, San Marino, Gradara, Misano, Rimini, Ancona, .... macht es zu einer idealen Ausgangsbasis für Tagesausflüge. Die herzliche und familiäre Atmosphäre ist allgegenwärtig und machen unseren Aufenthalt zu etwas Besonderem. So kommt es, dass der Abschied noch schwerer fällt. Wir versprechen auf jeden Fall wieder zu kommen.

Consigliato da clienti abituali prenotiamo per un week end questa bellissima struttura immersa in un panorama unico. I proprietari ci accolgono come fossimo persone di casa e ci mettono subito a nostro agio. Cosa molto Importante. Ci consigliano il loro ristorante . La sera ci fanno trovare un tavolo molto ben curato vista fronte castello e già qui il voto alla magia della serata e’ pieno ma la magia stessa non è ancora finita. Ci viene ad illustrare il menù lo chef in persona,un ragazzo giovane ma molto molto preparato e attento a soddisfare ogni nostra pretesa. Dal primo piatto in poi abbiamo subito capito che la nostra scelta non poteva essere più azzeccata. Tutto buonissimo e dettagliatamente presentato. Lo chef ci pure offerto un buon digestivo. Come ha detto mia moglie oltre che molto bravo e gentilissimo pure affascinante. La mattina seguente a colazione ancora una sorpresa, ci serve il signor Ranieri in persona e la mattinata è subito partita bene. Colazione ricchissima. Cosa possiamo dire? Siamo piacevolmente stupiti e non vediamo l’ora di tornarci.

Le aspettative erano alte e sono state soddisfatte. Il luogo è bucolico, su una collina che affaccia sulla valle di fronte al castello di Gradara. La villa è fantastica, arredata con cura gusto e stile eccellente, la ricerca del particolare, che fa la differenza, è unica. Trasmette benessere e serenità. Gli spazi esterni sono curati e la tranquillità è un must! La colazione è fantastica, con torte fatte in casa, marmellate, succhi, frutta e il salato espresso, molto gradito! La camera bella, confortevole, insonorizzata e pulitissima. Il servizio attentissimo ad ogni esigenza. Il ristorante di buonissimo livello, con uno chef, Cristian che ringrazio, molto competente ed intenditore di vino. Ma il valore aggiunto è Ranieri, il titolare. Il connubio perfetto tra il professionale albergatore brianzolo è il conviviale oste marchigiano/romagnolo, Cortesia, simpatia e un attenzione superba al cliente. Villa Francesca è un luogo di relax, bellezza, cibo ed empatia! Consigliatissimo

Villa Francesca è Ranieri ( il patron) e Ranieri è Villa Francesca . Location bellissima sui colli di Gradara , camere accoglienti ed eleganti, ambienti comuni arricchiti da pezzi di design e di antiquariato , spazi esterni ben curati con una notevole piscina ampia e pulita. C'è anche un buon ristorante con uno chef ( mi dispiace di non ricordare il nome) giovane e creativo. Le poche camere contribuiscono poi a creare un'ambiente rilassante e di immediata empatia con molti degli ospiti e con Ranieri innamoratissimo della sua creatura. Alla partenza grande emozione con la promessa di rivederci certamente. Tre giorni rilassanti e di grande piacere. Bravo Ranieri !!!!
