Hey from Marco

Member since June 2016 | 33,183 hits
The idea of the B&B [bed & breakfast] was born at a time when we had to decide what to do with old grandparents’ house in Santa Severa, but the idea was evolving with me.

For years I have been a supporter of a lifestyle more natural, environmentally and animal friendly, and i was looking for health and wellness.

This led me to inform me a lot, changing my diet embracing vegetarianism and then veganism, acquiring new awareness and driving significant gains on the physical, energetic and mental wellness.

By taking better care of myself “I discovered” Shiatsu, and after verifying its effectiveness, I have studied it and practiced it to become operator.

After living for a while in cities such as Civitavecchia and then Rome, in apartments and condominiums, I wanted a detached house with a garden and the possibility to be surrounded animals.

The decision was easy: sell my house, find the resources to acquire the shares of other relatives and buy the home of the grandparents, to relocate to this quiet and charming village by the sea where I had spent some wonderful childhood moments.

Putting it into practice was not so easy but I did it, April 2015 start the renovation project, to build a house according to my ideal model: energy-saving, environmentally friendly materials, photovoltaic system, rainwater harvesting, hot water heat pumps and no gas. The result is a certificate of energy performance class A4, the maximum.

Since the host is part of my culture and family tradition, why my brand new home cannot become a point of sharing experiences and return some of the expenses incurred?
At the end of the work, in June 2016 opens up the bed and breakfast and accommodation for guests is brand new, nice and comfortable, like a very good standard hotel.

Simultaneously also it opens local office to offer shiatsu treatments, and be able to do fitness exercises and practice yoga.

Soon other initiatives will follow to make Baia Benessere not only a stop for travelers and tourists, but also a cultural center dedicated to the study and promotion of veganism and natural hygiene, deep ecology, permaculture, shiatsu and other vitality and longevity practices.

Of course all this would not have been possible without the help of my parents,
Marino and Rina, I thank them infinitely along with Rossella, my partner in life and adventure!

Area seaside
What to do outside the B&B?

Take a dip in the sea and sunbathe on the fantastic wild beach of "sabbie nere", the free beach "del Castello" or the equipped ones of "Isola del Pescatore" or "Marinaio".

Engage in a sports activity such as surfing/windsurfing/stand-up paddleboarding/canoeing at the famous spots along the coast like Castello, Banzai, Toscana or Ocean Surf. Alternatively, go for a bike ride, go running or trekking in the surrounding areas.

Embark on a cultural visit to the Santa Severa Castle, the Archaeological Area of Pyrgi, or the Etruscan necropolis of Banditaccia in Cerveteri.

Go on a nature excursion in the Tolfa Mountains, exploring the forgotten roads and landscapes in the municipalities of Allumiere, Canale Monterano, Manziana, and Tolfa.

Visit the regional nature reserve of "Macchiatonda" or the natural monument "palude di Torre Flavia".

Spend a day at the thermal baths, such as Ficoncella Baths in Civitavecchia or the thermal park of Stigliano.

Immerse yourself in history with a visit to Rome and its monuments.

Take an evening stroll along the promenade of Civitavecchia, have dinner at a pizzeria or trattoria, and stop by Santa Marinella on the way back for ice cream, a slice of watermelon, or a fruit salad.

Unfortunately, the friendliness of the managers (Marco and his Mom) did not correspond to the rest of the stay. New and tidy structure. Terrible breakfast (discount products), ants and mosquitoes in the room (no mosquito nets), small hairdryer with schucko socket without double socket and without two-way sockets for the one I brought from home, very slippery shower, shower gel to tear with teeth while showering, rigidity for check-in when the manager lives above (I had a fair and had to leave the stand to go get the keys). Not a positive experience, a shame because the potential is there.

The answer from the host:
Baia Benessere già nel nome si pone come obiettivo quello di far trascorrere un soggiorno piacevole ai nostri ospiti, per questo naturalmente ci dispiace che il sig. Pasquale valuti la sua esperienza come non positiva. Nelle recensioni le critiche costruttive sono di aiuto a migliorarsi e sono ben accette, purtroppo non è questo il caso dove a parte, l'incontestabilità di una struttura nuova ed ordinata e l'attestato di simpatia e potenzialità, il sig. Pasquale elenca una serie lamentele che ci sentiamo in dovere di contestare per non disorientare i futuri ospiti nelle loro aspettative. 1) Viene scritto "Colazione pessima" motivandola con un generico "prodotti del discount": con questa affermazione sembra si voglia disprezzare il fatto che diversi prodotti (biscotti, croissant, fette biscottate, marmellate) siano confezionati e (sebbene di qualità e varietà e prezzo maggiorato poichè vegan) è del tutto normale che provengano dal supermercato come prevede la normativa. Durante la colazione (che è stata comunque fatta) avevamo come opzione supplementare anche una crostata ed un dolce fatto in casa che non sono stati assaggiati, e poi cereali yogurt, frutta fresca e secca e succhi di frutta, caffè e tutte le tipologie di bevande calde. A nostro avviso il voto di 2 è ingiusto e dato da una errata aspettativa rispetto al contesto di un B&B familiare confermata dalla richiesta della sig.Laura (compagna di camera del sig.Pasquale) per una colazione di tipo buffet salato, diversa dalla colazione ben descritta (e corredata di foto) pubblicizzata sul nostro sito. 2) "Formiche e Zanzare in camera", motivata con l'assenza di zanzariere: il contesto è quello di una camera con una porta finestra verso un patio che dà direttamente sul giardino, le zanzariere in questo contesto non sono pratiche ed efficaci, per questo in ogni camera abbiamo a disposizione i classici repellenti da presa elettrica, di tipo naturale, se l'ospite avesse fatto presente il problema avremmo indicato come utilizzare questi accorgimenti ed avremmo anche eliminato quelle formiche che non abbiamo però trovato nel fare la pulizia alla sua partenza. In ogni caso queste non sono motivazioni che giustificano un voto di 3 "alla pulizia" e si evince che la valutazione non è obiettiva. 3) "Phon piccolo...", "doccia molto scivolosa" e "bagno schiuma...": i fatti sono questi: nella dotazione del bagno c'è un phon da viaggio, ma di marca philips da 1200W, del tutto adeguato a brevi soggiorni, gli adattatori per le prese sono presenti ed in ogni caso possono essere forniti gratuitamente, come bagnodoccia abbiamo delle bustine monouso standard per le struttura turistiche, la doccia è molto spaziosa e chiusa su 3 lati ed il piatto doccia è in ceramica ondulata antiscivolo (di marca "dolomite"), è la prima volta che sentiamo lamentele anche un pò risibilmente colorite su questi aspetti. 4) "Rigidità sul check-in quando...": il nostro orario di check-in è molto lungo, dalle 14,30 alle 19,30 ed abbiamo gentilmente chiesto all'ospite di arrivare almeno entro le 20, il fatto di abitare in struttura non è motivo di essere a disposizione di orari aleatori di ogni ospite (del tipo "quando finisce l'evento arriviamo"), anche noi abbiamo diritto ad una vita privata per esempio organizzandoci per una cena fuori specialmente il sabato sera. Tra l'altro in altre 2 camere nello stesso sabato sera di soggiorno, c'erano altrettanti espositori della stessa fiera che si sono organizzati agevolmente per fare il check-in. Ci sorprende questa lamentela tardiva, visto che il sig. Pasquale è arrivato abbastanza prima dell'orario richiesto, e nel ringraziarlo ha risposto che non era venuto solo a prendere le chiavi, ma a farsi la doccia, a dimostrazione che non c'erano stati problemi nel lasciare il banco della fiera. Concludo dicendo che facciamo del nostro meglio per far stare bene i nostri ospiti, siamo sempre accoglienti e disponibili e chiediamo a tutti di avvisarci per poter risolvere ogni problema sul momento. Siamo lieti che questo venga apprezzato da quasi tutti i nostri ospiti come dimostrano le altre innumerevoli recensioni positive, e confidiamo che anche chi leggerà queste note comprenda che a volte le persone siano in uno stato d'animo particolare, abbiano un atteggiamento o predisposizione negativa o vivano problemi personali che li farebbero stare a disagio anche in un posto paradisiaco.

Nice structure, new and with a lovely garden. Very large and clean rooms. We had a good time. The only flaw is the distance from the sea and breakfast. Also, the bicycles are old and the brakes don't work well.

The answer from the host:
Nel ringraziare l'ospite per la bella recensione lasciata almeno a parole, mi lasciano un pò perplessi però i singoli voti lasciati, ad esempio sul gestore e sul rapporto qualità-prezzo che non trovano motivazioni. Inoltre aggiungo dei chiarimenti per chi legge sulle "pecche" segnalate che hanno ottenuto altrettanti voti insufficienti. La posizione è ben indicata nel nostro sito, siamo a 2 km dal mare ed 1 dalla stazione del treno, certo per chi decide di venire con il treno come in questo caso non è comodissimo ma fattibile; proprio per questa tipologia di ospiti, mettiamo a disposizione gratuita delle biciclette che decidono di usufruirne dopo averle viste e provate, lamentarsi del fatto che siano un pò datate e con i freni non di ultima generazione "a disco" lo trovo un pò ingrato. Per la colazione non è indicato cosa non sia piaciuto, se è il fatto stesso che la colazione sia di tipo vegan quindi con prodotti a base vegetale c'è da dire che questa scelta è ben indicata nel nostro sito. In ogni caso invitiamo i futuri ospiti ad informarsi prima della prenotazione per non avere diverse aspettative, e nel dubbio chiamare per ogni informazione o chiarimento.

We had a great time at Baia Benessere. Marco is very welcoming and did a lot to make us feel comfortable. The accommodation is a nice walk from the beach and the castle, but it is doable if you are skilled and willing to walk about twenty minutes. Whenever we needed help, Marco and his company were always available.

Good stay at this establishment and good value for money. The staff is very friendly, attentive, and provides good advice. The location of the house is a bit off-center from the seaside as it is located in the north of the city. However, there is a bus nearby for people without means of transport. The shaded area for the communal breakfast is very pleasant. A nice experience.

Siamo stati in Agosto in questo B&B a Santa Severa Nord. Ottima struttura pulita e con camere nuove. La stanza é molto grande come il bagno. I bambini sono stati benissimo, il pomeriggio andavano a cogliere le carote nel piccolo orto. Io ho provato il trattamento Shiatsu di Marco e lo consiglio per professionalità. Torneremo sicuramente.
