Breakfast

First of all the quality, genuineness and variety. Bread is home made, also cakes, biscuits, brioches, various delicious jams, sweet or salty pancakes. Several Ferrero products are available (Nutella etc). Coffee is prepared in the Italian Moka! A waid variety of tea!, barly, Nesqui (c) k (not only for children), milk and fruit juices. All kind of goods, when necessary, are bought in FAIRTRADE shops. Understand that this kind of breakfast has nothing to do with, f. ex. the small butter portions you may find at a hotel breakfast.

Breakfast

The structure is very quiet, as it is immersed in the greenery, in an area that separates from the inhabited center, although it still remains part of it. Vittorio is very helpful throughout the stay. Very tasty and varied breakfast, although the toast was missing to be flavored with homemade jam.

To definitely return. We were guests at Villa Dei Gelsi... A location just a few dozen meters from the sea but once you enter the entrance driveway of the property you find yourself immersed in nature among olive trees, succulent plants, and other fruit trees, a place where tranquility and silence reign. Morning breakfast under a pergola of grapes, and a table laden with all imaginable delicacies starting from the delicious homemade jams. Mr. Vittorio, a wonderful person, pampered us and satisfied our every request. For the next trip to Loano, it will definitely be our accommodation destination. Ivan & Monica.

If you are looking for a relaxing place surrounded by greenery, I recommend it. Very clean and nothing is missing. There is no TV, but I didn't miss it. The manager is exceptionally kind. The breakfast is super abundant, served under a portico surrounded by a vine that has given its maximum fruits in this period. Delicious grapes. It's a pity I only stayed for 2 days, but I will definitely return.

Dirty. La Casa dei Gelsi is full of cobwebs in the room and insects, both alive and dead. Not recommended.

The answer from the host:
Una recensione così negativa mi mancava, è la prima, mi abbasserà la media! L'aspetto che più ha disturbato l'ospite Pietro è la pulizia e soprattutto i ragni. Posso affermare che faccio le pulizie a ogni cambio di prenotazione e sicuramente non lascio ragnatele e insetti morti ma sicuramente Pietro ha ragione riguardo ai ragni e agli isetti vivi perché la mia casa-villetta è nel verde e in estate possono entrare dalle finestre aperte. Quindi è consigliabile a chi può essere disturbato da questo di rivolgersi a strutture in mezzo ai palazzi o nel centro storico. Riguardo al voto sulla colazione chi legge può guardare le altre recensioni,

aurelio

Kind and caring manager. Structure immersed in the greenery where you can admire the sparkle of fireflies and listen to the frogs' singing. Close to the highway and the town center.

Vittorio is an exceptional host, attentive to the guest's needs but at the same time very discreet. Breakfast is top-notch with fresh bread, cakes, and jams, all strictly homemade by Vittorio. Highly recommended!

A pleasant surprise, from the welcome of the discreet, very kind and excellent in the kitchen owner, to the well-kept structure both in the garden and inside, in a rustic style. Genuine breakfast, homemade from bread, to cakes (a different one every day), to jams... all strictly organic and fair trade! Wonderful stay. A must return.

Cozy structure immersed in a well-kept and flowery garden, we were welcomed by Vittorio, a very discreet person who takes care of this place in a warm and familiar way. Homely breakfast with excellent homemade jams and bread. Clean rooms decorated in a charming mix of ethnic and retro style. We rested wonderfully surrounded by the silence of nature but just a few minutes from the center of Loano. If we needed, we will definitely return there.

I stayed at La Casa dei Gelsi with my boyfriend for 4 nights at the end of August and I couldn't be more satisfied! Vittorio is a splendid person, the ideal owner: helpful, discreet, quiet, and with a passion (and skill) for baking cakes! The location is outside the center, about a 15-minute walk from the seaside; to reach the property, you have to walk along a small road, not very busy but with everything you need (bars, pharmacy, supermarket, pizzeria, bakeries) and full of other structures and campsites. Once you arrive at the property, you will feel like you are in another world: quiet, cool, surrounded by greenery and... by a friendly cuddly cat and a shy dog! Brand new and very clean room and bathroom, with air conditioning and mosquito net above the bed. But the real highlight is the breakfast in the garden, consisting of fresh homemade bread, different cakes every day, and garden jams! Possibility to use the outdoor kitchen and/or barbecue and possibility to leave your luggage even after check-out. Long review, but this B&B deserves it.

vincenzo

Great property for those who want peace and relaxation with the advantage of being just a couple of kilometers from the center of Loano and therefore from the sea. Breakfast outdoors, in the garden, very good and abundant with sweets and bread prepared directly by the owner, Mr. Vittorio, a very kind and exquisite person who has shown great availability. I recommend it to those who desire relaxation and tranquility in the Loano area.

Chosen this property for the very high ratings, which I absolutely confirm. It's top for cleanliness, friendliness, hospitality, and location. The only note is about breakfast, the addition of something savory (like cold cuts), for people like me who enjoy the classic sandwich in the morning.

We had a pleasant weekend at La Casa dei Gelsi. Immersed in a beautiful garden where you can enjoy a genuine and abundant breakfast, in the cool and in total relaxation. The rooms are new, spacious, clean, and cozy. With a 20-minute walk, you can reach the center and the beach. What distinguishes La Casa dei Gelsi the most is the kindness and availability of Vittorio, the owner, who makes you feel at home. We will definitely come back!

Very kind, courteous and helpful person. Good general cleanliness. Nice large bathroom equipped with everything (towels, hairdryer, soap) with a bathtub and/or shower. Presence of outdoor games for children, small refrigerator without freezer with kitchen and barbecue in the courtyard available for 5 euros and 15 euros per day, a set of 3 large outdoor tables and benches, a cool shaded canopy from grape plants and a swing, presence of free WiFi. Only flaw in the context the lack of TV and I would recommend a fan in the room. Good value for money. Recommended. Overall good rating. Greetings from little Christian.

La Casa dei Gelsi è un'oasi di pace. Si percepisce la cura con cui viene gestita. La casa è accogliente, ariosa e pulita. Il signor Vittorio è molto disponibile e attento ai suoi ospiti. La colazione è varia e abbondante e il fatto che sia servita in giardino la rende ancora più piacevole. Comodissimo il posto auto; si può andare al mare con una passeggiata di 20-25 minuti senza il fastidio di dover parcheggiare. Lo consiglio e conto di tornarci.

Posto magico, un po' lontano dal mare ma immerso nella natura. Il signor Vittorio è gentile e disponibile, mio figlio ora vuole tornare solo da lui per i nostri appuntamenti a Loano. Camere grandi e confortevoli anche se con bagno in comune. Colazione bio e casalinga con prodotti di qualità e del territorio.

Il signor Vittorio, da cui soggiornammo già in precedenti occasioni, si mostra sempre quale ottimo ospite, curando sia la pulizia della struttura, sia la qualità della colazione (sono note le squisite crostate e torte da lui cucinate). Il bagno, anche se in comune, è pulito, spazioso e comodo. Consiglio vivamente di soggiornare qui. MdS.

Posto molto tranquillo, fresco, naturale. Un bel giardino per fare colazione all'aperto, circondato da vegetazione mista, a volte brulla ma molti alberi e fiori di vario genere, dalla stanza al primo piano si gode un bel panorama. Un po' lontano dalla spiaggia ma c'è posto per l'auto oppure ci si può avvicinare e lasciarla prima di arrivare alla via Aurelia. Stanze con bagno e balcone in comune, semplici ma ordinate e pulite. Colazione ricca con succo, latte, te e caffè, confetture e pane fatti in casa, biscotti e fette naturali. Il gestore é come un "vecchio amico", ti senti subito a tuo agio ma senza salamelecchi, sembra far parte della natura del posto. Buona impressione, ritornerei volentieri. Fulvio.

Il signor Vittorio è super disponibile e gentile, e ci ha offerto una colazione molto abbondante con prodotti fatti in casa, il tutto nel giardino sotto un gazebo. Si dorme tranquilli e al fresco, con vista sulle montagne e c'è libertà totale per quanto riguarda l'orario di rientro. La struttura ai trova a 10-15 min a piedi dal centro, quindi non c'è traffico ed è comoda se si arriva in treno o se si vuole lasciare la macchina per andare in giro a piedi.

Ho soggiornato in questa struttura e sono stato benissimo come se fossi stato in famiglia grazie al gestore Vittorio una persona accogliente e squisitissima. All'inizio ero un po' restio a causa del bagno in comune, ma il problema non sussiste in quanto il sig. Vittorio è una persona attenta alla pulizia. Colazione abbondante, la struttura immersa nel verde e nella tranquillità a due passi dal mare. Ci ritornerò sicuramente. Un ringraziamento particolare a Vittorio.

Il posto è affascinante per chi ama la campagna/collina. La cucina all'aperto sotto la tettoia, il prato e il terrazzo sono i punti di forza. Non la consiglio per chi ha palati fini e non è abituato alla vita all'aria aperta. Non c'è separazione tra gli ingressi della casa del gestore e delle camere. il bagno in comune può essere un problema se le tre camere sono tutte occupate. Per andare al mare occorre prendere la macchina. Il gestore è molto cortese e discreto ma non ha rilasciato fattura.

stayed from 08/30/2015 to 09/01/2015

The answer from the host:
Ringrazio Antonio Franco che ha scritto osservazioni corrette. Poi, ovviamente, le valutazioni sono soggettive. Riguardo al rilascio della ricevuta vorrei rendere noto a chi non lo sa che i B&B come il mio, che non sono dei piccoli alberghi trasformati ma fatti nella propria abitazione, non hanno obbligo di rilascio di ricevuta perché non detentori di partita IVA. Questo però non vuole dire che non pagano le tasse perché gli ospiti sono registrati con segnalazione alla PS e all'Ufficio Provinciale del Turismo e i redditi vanno messi in dichiarazione e sommati agli altri personali per determinare l'aliquota. Vittorio.

In zona collinare, immerso nel verde, silenzioso e tranquillo. Gestore disponibile e gentile. La colazione, ottima e abbondante, è il punto di forza.

La struttura è semplice ma molto comoda e confortevole, il gestore una persona molto simpatica e disponibile, la colazione poi ottima ed abbondante, lo consigliamo a tutti.
