POGGIO TAKUNA swimming among the olive trees... and more! !!

In Itri, on a small hill, there are two magnificent structures, made of stone, full of comforts and with breathtaking views from Ischia to Ponza!
The owner has taken care of every detail regardless of expenses, since it has built for the family, but then decided to rent to people who love nature and who appreciate the uniqueness of the property :: only so the properties live! The sea of ​​Sperlonga is 15 minutes away by car, but the large swimming pool often attracts so much to make you lazy: swimming among the olive trees and enjoying a healthy breakfast on the edge equipped with umbrellas, deckchairs and tables is a real pleasure! Not far away archaeological sites and historic villages make the holiday of those who love our beautiful land even more complete!
Excursions are organized by cycling and trekking associations so as to immerse themselves in the rural culture of the places within the Natural Park of the Aurunci mountains. Just contact the proloco or the natural park authority to be informed about the specific routes and the calendar of events.
  From the port of Formia, 8 km, ferries and hydrofoils leave for the Pontine islands, pearls of our sea! In short, there is every wish to satisfy!
More specifically, they are to highlight:
Sperlonga an ancient medieval village (speluncae-caves in Latin), a concentration of alleys, steps, small shops and many restaurants on a spur overlooking the sea. On the sides long beaches and coastal caves transformed by the ancient Romans into places of pleasure. Do not miss the villa and the cave of Tiberius !!
Privernum 60 km from Itri, is an ancient village with an archaeological museum where you will find Roman statues and mosaics of absolute beauty. Incredible !! Nearby is the Fossanova basilica, a masterpiece of Cistercian art, founded in the ninth century by Cistercian monks who reclaimed the area by opening a new canal (the fossa nova).
Sermoneta (74 km from itri) an absolutely intact medieval village with a particular gastronomic offer of quality, surmounted by the ancient fortress of the Caetani.
Naples and Rome are one hour by train from Formia station. It is possible to get to Pompeii using only the train!
Have a nice holiday!

Holiday in the hills
We had a wonderful family holiday here. Beautiful, spacious villa in 2 parts with wonderful views of the surrounding hills as well as out to sea. Coming from Rome by car the villa is best accessed by going through Fondi then Itri. The final few kilometres are via a fairly narrow road and then finally along a single track. Itri is the closest town for supplies and that is about a 10 minute drive. It isn’t possible to walk to any local shops. Larger supermarkets are within a 30 minute drive in Fondi and Formia. The villa and grounds are spacious. The pool is tremendous with plenty of loungers, chair, sun umbrellas etc and this meant that often we didn’t need to leave the villa during the day. Any queries we had were answered quickly, especially when we enquired about the ‘wild life’ during the night which turned out to be a family of wild boar! Seems they are a common occurrence in the area - they didn’t cause us any concern. Sperlonga is a beautiful village closer by which is well worth a visit. Rome, Naples and Pompeii are all within a couple of hours driving or alternatively a shorter train journey - we opted for the train which was always reliable. So, all in all a wonderful holiday with the villa providing a lovely base as well as a haven for our family.

Peaceful and beautiful
We had a wonderful family holiday at Poggio Takuna. The house is spacious with plenty of bathrooms, the pool in particular is fantastic as it is private and surrounded by beautiful countryside. We enjoyed many lovely evenings sitting on the terrace, eating, drinking and talking. The new gas barbecue was a particular favourite. There are a couple of things to take into account: there are a lot of mosquitoes as it is an area with many trees, so come prepared. Also, the approach road to the house is quite rough and narrows. This isn't a problem but is worth knowing beforehand. Paride and Luisa helped us a lot, by bringing extra fans, when our young grandchild was unwell with the heat (it was a very hot period all across Europe) and by giving advice on restaurants etc. All in all, this was a perfect place for a large family group. Thank you Mario!

Stunning place.
Warm welcome given at this stunning venue with far reaching views of hills and sea, among the olive groves. Car needed. Rooms are designed to a very good standard. Pool a bonus. Good for all ages. Great for a large group- plenty of space.Only drawback were the mosquitoes at this time of year.

Bene , bello e con un po’ di pazienza si arriva
La vacanza è stata molto piacevole. La struttura è situata su un alto poggio, da cui si può godere di una splendida veduta una volta arrivati. Tuttavia, raggiungere il luogo richiede un po' di attenzione, specialmente se si viaggia con un furgone a 9 posti, poiché la strada è piuttosto stretta e costeggiata da arbusti che, nel nostro caso, toccavano frequentemente la carrozzeria del veicolo. Tra i punti di forza, oltre al magnifico panorama, vorrei sottolineare la totale assenza di rumori urbani, la bellissima e spaziosa terrazza esterna con gazebo, ideale per mangiare all'aperto anche in gruppo, e una splendida piscina. L'unica nota dolente, di cui eravamo però consapevoli, è la mancanza di aria condizionata, la cui presenza renderebbe il soggiorno a Poggio Takuna perfetto in ogni suo aspetto.

Spacieuse , jardin magnifique
Maison idéal pour la détente , suffisamment d’espace pour une grande famille ou entre amis . Il manque cependant la climatisation même si bcp de ventilateurs sont à disposition. Les repas sur la magnifique terrasse demande de l’organisation ( les cuisines sont un peu loin ) mais fidèle à la description. . Un peu plus d’ustensiles adapté à une cuisines familiale serait bien ..Route d’accès étroites, attention pour les gros véhicules. Maisons et linges très propres . Accueil agréables . Bon contact

Fantastic house, wiew and surrounding nature
The house is impressive with large surfaces, high standard and well maintained. The pool, which is large and solid, is cleaned every week. The animal life around the house is also exciting and in addition to lots of lizards, we also saw scorpions, snakes and wild boars. The very best thing about the house is the large balcony with a view of the beautiful landscape and the sea in the background, incredible! The contact with the hosts was fast and smooth and they answered questions directly via Whatsap. The house is secluded out in nature. There are no shops or restaurants nearby so you are dependent on a car. The road to the house is narrow, steep and the trees grow in over the road. Getting there with a larger vehicle such as a motor home is not recommended. In summary, we were very satisfied with the accommodation and can absolutely recommend it if you are looking for nature, magnificent views, pleasant days in a large beautiful house with a well-kept pool.

La casa era come da descrizione, pulita, e anche la piscina curata. Ben attrezzata la casa. Anche sul posto la signora Luisa,che ci ha ricevuto, gentile e disponibile. Casa immersa nel verde e nel silenzio, a parte le cicale durante il giorno. Serate in terrazza con un cielo tempestato di stelle.. Meraviglioso.

simply magnificent
Despite a short stay we were able to take advantage of all the beauty offered by the Poggio Takuna structure. The Villa is simply magnificent, immersed in the green of its olive trees and the beautiful garden with well-kept lawn. super efficient check-in with the support of the staff. Every internal and external environment has been studied in detail and the cleanliness is excellent. super welcome both the advice for things to do in the surroundings and the basic necessities made available by the property. Really something unexpected and that all travelers always wish they could find. very good! Each room is super-equipped and the beds are super comfortable and extra wide. We left really reluctantly…thanks to Poggio takuna staff and to the owner that is super!

Traumhaftes Haus mit schöner Aussicht
Das Haus ist noch schöner als auf den Fotos! Die Terrasse hat einen weiten und wunderschönen Ausblick, man kann sogar das Meer sehen. Jedes Schlafzimmer hat sein eigenes Bad. Alles war sauber und ordentlich. Das Haus ist zwar nicht klimatisiert, aber es gibt Ventilatoren in den Zimmern. Alle Fenster und Türen sind mit Insektengittern versehen, dadurch konnten wir nachts die Fenster offen lassen, ohne von Mücken aufgefressen zu werden. Itri und Umgebung sind wirklich schön und nicht so touristisch wie die typischen Urlaubsorte. In Gaeta und Sperlonga gibt es traumhafte Strände und auch die Städte selbst laden zu abendlichen Spaziergängen ein. Unsere Ansprechpartner vor Ort waren Paride und Luisa, die uns freundlich empfangen und durch das Haus geführt haben. Paride hat immer schnell geantwortet und war sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Insgesamt hatten wir einen sehr angenehmen Aufenthalt und würden Poggio Takuna auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen!

Bella location con buon potenziale
Molto bella la struttura, che denota una attenzione del proprietario alla sua realizzazione. Nell'annuncio, pero', non viene segnalato che la villa non e' ad Itri, ma in una contrada vicino Itri, e che per raggiungerla c'e' anche una strada sterrata da percorrere. La piscina e' molto bella e viene pulita due volte a settimana, sebbene non la abbiamo utlizzata molto causa zanzare. La villa e' dotata di tutto e quando abbiamo avuto bisogno di qualcosa il proprietario si e' sempre dimostrato disponibile nel fornirla (anche cambiando immediatamente un televisore). A nostro avviso, pero', dei condizionatori nelle camere da letto sarebbero stati utili durante la nostra permanenza, sebbene per 10gg sui 21gg trascorsi (luglio) non ne avremmo avuto bisogno. Infine, abbiamo trovato i materassi della depandance molto molto duri.

MERAVIGLIA TRA GLI ULIVI!
Podere meraviglioso composto di due case immerso negli ulivi con annessa piscina dotata di ogni confort. Terrazza stupenda con vista sulla vallata sino al mare da cui si vedono le isole pontine nelle giornate più limpide. Le due case sono dotate di tutti gli utensili ed elettrodomestici utili per soddisfare le esigenze anche di un gruppo numeroso come il nostro, composto da otto adulti e sette bambini di età compresa tra i due e i dieci anni. Proprietari attentissimi ad ogni nostra esigenza tramite i disponibili collaboratori presenti in loco. Ottima la posizione, situata a 5 minuti da Itri e 20 minuti da sperlonga e la sua costa con il suo mare limpidissimo. Non vediamo l’ora di organizzarci per tornare!

This place is everything you could ask for. The house is huge, every bedroom has its own bathroom and there are two kitchens. The pool area is really nice, surrounded by olive trees. But the best thing is the terrace with an outstanding wiew. Also the host was so helpful with questions, recommendations and helping us get taxis etc. You will need a car, but the small town of Itri and lots of beaches is just a short drive away. Overall a lovely place!
