Weddings, Birthdays, Anniversaries, Workshops:
We have enough space to house most families under one roof and can suggest and/or help organize a special dinner, excursion, restaurant meal or even something as extravagant as a hot air balloon ride with champagne breakfast to celebrate your special day.
Green as a Way of Life:
The Villa reflects our philosophy and a particular approach to life which focuses on graciousness, warm hospitality, elegance, and joy in the simple things in life, coupled with a strong sense of responsibility as custodians of the beautiful assets we are so fortunate to enjoy. We strive to treat the natural and personal resources we use with respect, integrity and honor. In a number of ways large and small, we have built the concept of reduce, reuse and recycle into the fabric of our daily life. We recycle 100% of plastic, paper products and glass/tin, encourage our guests to do so as well and provide facilities so that it is not burdensome for them to achieve this. We compost all vegetal matter and food scraps (6 compost piles and our cats). Even our furnishings are “recycled”: the Villa’s décor is largely antiques or quirky secondhand furniture imaginatively redesigned by the owner. We buy local. All of this has been accomplished without compromising on style, comfort or quality.
Comments from our guests:
'We couldn't imagine staying anywhere else. This was our first trip to Italy and we were not sure if we would make such a journey again, but after staying at Villa Gioianna and visiting the region, we can honestly say we will most definitely return. You villa is one that can only be dreamed about.' (Jan & Jeff) 'Thank you so much for such a memorable week in paradise. Your kindness, generosity, professionalism, attention to detail and emphasis on quality were most appreciated.' (Jeff & Jim) 'This place is enchanting -- the scenery, the ambience, and all those wonderful tomatoes !' (Pat) 'We just finished 6 incredible days at your Villa . . . I had the best 40th! The food was out of this world and all your suggestions for wineries, dinners and activities were the best.' (Kathy) 'This holiday has been one of total enchantment. Words can't convey how wonderful this experience has been. Every view is worthy of a painting. How fortunate we are to have lived this dream.' (Pete & Tess)
