10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at the Art Villa Agape was one of the highlights of our trip to Italy. The grounds were absolutely stunning with lovely views from different parts of the building. The rooms were nice and the staff was very friendly and helpful arranging rides for us. There is a free shuttle they have available which runs for limited hours and makes only two stops at the edge of town. We used it when we could. The restaurant had very high quality food and the breakfast provided was outstanding. I have food allergies and appreciated that their menu and breakfast buffet were clearly marked for allergens. The bar area was very comfortable and we enjoyed spending time there."
