Masseria del Vino

Wonderful atmosphere, wonderful and always friendly Paola. When there was rainy day Paula gave us umbrellas with out asking and advised us what to see and where to go. We had own rental car and there was nice restaurants nearby and easy to go all over Abruzzo. We got every day delicious breakfast. Absolute beautyful landscape with olive trees and vines. Real Italy! I would like to give more than 5 stars.

We cannot say enough positive things about Ciavolich. We stayed here 2 nights and wish it could have been more. Harvest was starting, so it was busy and exciting. Their hot tubs are a lovely way to unwind after arriving. The rooms are well appointed and you’re able to use the communal kitchen too - it’s set up so every room has a place for water, your wine and any other food you bring with you in the fridge. The thing that made Ciavolich for us though were Carla and Paola. These two women run the guest rooms (and other parts of the business) and are so good at their jobs - they are incredible. Carla seems to be everywhere, all the time and she is so attentive and good at everything. Paola is the baker and makes everything you will eat at breakfast from scratch. The welcoming committee consisted of lovely cats and dogs who all came to see us whenever we came back from our explorations. The views of the surrounding countryside were incredible. If you go, book in for a dinner at La Bandolina which is just 3 mins down the road - no menus are available, they come to your table and tell you what choices they have - we had multiple courses with wine and more than we could ever eat and it was really reasonable (55 euros). Carla works there too - she never sleeps! We highly recommend this property

Absolutely beautiful place to unwind in breathtaking surroundings.. Carla and Paola take care of your every need and the dogs Roma and Stellina make it feel like home. Will definitely return. We had the two bedroom apartment which was really impressive. Both rooms en suite and air conditioned, your own kitchen diner and spa with bath, sauna and electronic shower and to top it off your own private roof terrace to take in the amazing views. It has a secret garden with two jacuzzis and sun loungers where you can sunbath and cool off. You can do a tour and tasting of the winery which was interesting and great fun.. Hire a car and discover local medieval villages, restaurants and markets… fell in love with this area and can’t wait to return x

Where do we begin? This agriturismo was the most pleasurable stay during our 3 week trip through several Italian provinces. It was outstanding - and in large part due to the service and gracious hospitality provided by their onsite staff, Carla and Paola. Carla is everywhere all the time and does everything. Paola is the baker and chef and creates the most amazing breakfasts. The wine, breakfasts, pastries, tarts, ricotta balls with cocoa and coconut, dogs, cats, people - all add up to an amazing stay - There are also super restaurants close by - La Bilancia and La Bandiera were two we went to. Don’t wait, book now.

This was the best family holiday we’ve ever had and we’ve stayed at some incredible 5* resorts around the world in the past. Ciavolich is the perfect base to explore beautiful Abruzzo (you will definitely need a car to do this) and in Carla and Paola the winery has 2 absolute gems who made our entire trip. Their breakfasts and hospitality are nothing short of amazing and their generosity with their time, incredible local knowledge and clear love for the place that they live was something we really valued. Our daughter loved them both with good reason and has been talking about them and the Ciavolich dogs and cats since we returned. Thanks again for such a wonderful and memorable stay - Tom, Agata and Rosa
