Summary: We finally managed to get to stay almost three years after first booking, but it was well worth the wait. Jacquie's communication throughout all the changes due to COVID and then for making final arrangements was excellent. We were greeted on arrival, shown round the property with an explanation of how everything worked and had a nice welcoming gift chilling in the fridge! Rapino is a quiet town but has a very good restaurant two minutes walk from the property as well as local shops to buy pastries and essentials. Supermarkets are only a short drive away. There is plenty to do and see in the local area in the mountains or on the beach. Jacquie is an attentive host full of local knowledge and made suggestions on places to go and things to do that aren't in the guidebooks. If you want to have a relaxing holiday away from the crowds in a lesser known part of Italy then we can't speak highly enough of Jacquie's property.

Summary: Very much enjoyed our stay in Rapino. Jacquie is a great host, met us on arrival and was always available for tips or a cheery hello. The property is just as advertised and very new and clean feeling. The garden is large and has a nice mixture of shade and sun. Our favourite local spot was walking on the Blockhaus hills - the air up there is cool and the walking is awesome.

Summary: The guest apartment is very clean, well appointed and spacious. we had great interactions from our host Jackie. she gave us valuable information to help make our trip smoother. The apartment was cleaned more often then I had excepted and that was a extra added bonus. The location is right in the heart of the Majella with many activities and festivals . The area is very easy to navigate and drive finding many areas of interest close by. there are also many places to eat and drink within walking distance. we meet many locals while attending the summer festivities . we will be back again. thank you for your gracious hospitability Sharon and Vic

Summary: Jacqui is a very welcoming and thoughtful host. Her apartment is well equipped and immaculately kept. There was fresh coffee, filled croissants, biscuits, bottled water and a bottle of Montepulciano wine waiting for us. We stayed in wet and cold weather and the apartment was well heated and cosy. There is a paved area and roof terrace that we could’ve used if the weather was better and is no doubt fantastic in the Summer. There are restaurants and a large supermarket within a short distance of the apartment and the beach at Francavilla al Mare or the Maiella Mountains is about 30 minutes drive in opposing directions. We would definitely stay here again.

Summary: A beautiful & well appointed apartment annex attached to owners property but quite private. Theres good attention to detail in provision of kitchen equipment/lighting/storage & washing facilities. Jacquie is a friendly & gracious host who makes herself available if needed & has a wealth of local info, but allows her guests space if they want that. Local restaurant, pizzeria, wine bar, bakery all gorgeous. Friendly small Italian mountain village location with super views from the terrace. Highly recommended.

Summary: We just returned from 3 weeks at the Majella Garden apartment and already miss it. You could not ask for a more beautiful place to spend your time after exploring the countryside every day. Get a glass of wine and sit out back , with the mountains and sounds of animals. There are plenty of towns to visit in the countryside or beach towns and of course the national parks. There are good restaurants within walking distance or short drive from the apartment, or you can cook your own meals. The apartment has everything you need, is very comfortable and of course Jacquie is a wonderful host. She was very helpful when we needed to plan a few trips and knows the area well.

Summary: We stayed for a week in this holiday house during the 2nd week of Sept '17). It has been mentioned already in several reviews: it has everything you would like to see when entering such a venue. A nice bedroom, with a good (though hard/firm) bed. A kitchen, a good living area and not to forget a great garden with a terrace. You can even make use of the roof-terrace, though we didn't do that. There's no airco, but a fan in the bedroom is present and you may open the windows at night. Bugs etc will stay out, since there are insect screen doors for all windows!! The hosts are most gentile, they've created a quite complete booklet with all kinds of tips for exploring the environment (hiking trips, trips by car, nice cities etc etc). Jacquie and Steven really do their utmost to make you feel at home. The Rapino town has about 5 restaurants, we tried 2 of them, ie The Garden (OK, but hardly any atmosphere) and Il Vignale (OK, but very few guests). The Abruzzen is great! The scenery is amazing, that includes the nearby Majella park, but also the Gran Sasso area is fantastic. One can also visit the coastal area, which is a drive of 30 minutes. The area is surely not flooded by tourists, though it depends a bit where you are of course. Please note that the Abruzzen area was hit several times by earthquakes, just as other parts of Italy. You might notice in some cities(not in Rapino) that there's still restoration work ongoing. Rapino itself, we found a bit too quiet, but it's just where you're looking for. But don't expect a vivid little town, it's peaceful with some restaurants and shops and that's it. There a small grocery shop nearby, which do sell fresh bread in the morning! It's a 10 minutes walk (one-way)! Enjoy the stay!

Summary: Thoroughly recommend a stay with Jacquie and Steve at their beautiful Abruzzo home. The apartment is immaculate, well-equipped and spotlessly clean, uncluttered yet homely. You can expect a warm welcome, snacks on arrival, excellent excursion advice and accurate directions to the property. The location is perfect for walks, restaurants, trips to the beach just 30 mins away and/or ventures up to the nearby mountains (through which the tap water comes naturally filtered and delicious). If you like the idea of waking to the sound of chickens, goat bells and an occasional donkey.. fresh Italian coffee.. and lazing on a hammock between two trees in a country garden with a good book.. or enjoying the stunning views from a roof terrace in the evening sun, then this is the place for you! Thank you Jacquie and Steve for being such kind and generous hosts. We definitely hope to return next year.

Summary: We had an absolutely wonderful time at the Majella Garden. The apartment is at once spacious and cosy, the view of the mountains is breathtaking, and the garden is absolutely idyllic in the sun. It's an easy drive to the high peaks, and even less in the opposite direction to beautiful sandy beaches on the Adriatic. Jacquie and Steve are wonderful hosts; friendly, helpful, and informative without ever being obtrusive. Rapino has a great range of excellent, very reasonably-priced eating and drinking options for a small town, and the apartment is a short, pleasant walk from its centre. Abruzzo is a marvellous area for a holiday; ideal for beach-goers, ideal for activities in the mountains and the national park. Not overdeveloped for tourism, so everything's very keenly priced. Absolutely recommended, without reservation (save that you'll really need a car).
