Everything and more
We had a great stay at Villa Mantilari that hosted our wedding celebration. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly. We took many recommendations from ThinkVilla, from the car rental to wedding planner, that did not disappoint. It is such a beautiful property that pictures do not quite give it justice. Do not hesitate to stay here!

Just amazing
Absolutely stunning property, furninshed to a high standard and with bags of charm. Just perfect for 19 of us from 5 different families, everyone had their own space. Lots of locations around the villa that were perfect at different times of day and room for all of us to have lunch/dinner together. Eleni and team super helpful and responsive. Cleaning was very well done every day. Highly recommended!
