What customers say
"As a family of four with kids who prefer their own rooms this property couldn't have been more suitable. ... It's an airy and open well finished home to relax and recharge in. Thanks for providing a great base from which we could enjoy our holiday!"

"We have been back home for a few days now and still fondly remember the wonderful vacation we had at your house.
We can only congratulate you on your property!
The comfortable house, which has been lovingly restored and extended, leaves nothing to be desired: beautiful living and sleeping areas, a very well-equipped kitchen, and covered outdoor seating that we enjoyed using even when it rained.
Special praise also goes to the beautifully landscaped garden and, of course, the spacious pool area, where we often spent time. The cherries that were just ripening quickly ended up in a cherry casserole. We were also constantly delighted by the magnificent view of the surrounding countryside..."

"Your house is simply a dream; you arrive and immediately feel like you've been invited to stay with good friends. The kitchen is perfect, everything is there, milk frother, Parmesan grater, scales, I didn't even have to unpack my sharp knives! Everything is spotlessly clean, the oven looks like new, as does the microwave, the refrigerator with lovely surprises (Prosecco, thank you very much for that), even ice cubes from a freezer that looks almost clinically clean.
It's wonderful that you can access the garden from every room, that you can find a sunny spot or a shady spot at any time of day, and everywhere smells of rosemary, sage, lavender...
And the infinity pool... you feel like you're swimming right into the valley. There were even inflatable swimming accessories available, plenty of umbrellas (2 people, 2 umbrellas... what luxury!). Just for fun, I suggest adding a refrigerator and an espresso machine by the pool... that would be the icing on the cake...
As you can tell, it was very difficult for us to return to Munich. I miss breakfast in the loggia with a view of Barchi and the rustling of lizards as soon as you entered the garden...
Dear Hilliger family, take good care of your treasure – we plan to come back as soon as possible, even though it will be even more difficult to leave again...

"We enjoyed a wonderful week's vacation at the beautifully situated Villa Tartaruga at the end of September. The Hilliger family has breathed new life into an old farmhouse here and fulfilled a dream that they are happy to share with their guests. The vacation home is very well equipped and was spotlessly clean when we arrived. The large kitchen in particular leaves nothing to be desired. The garden with its various terraces is a dream, and the pool was still inviting for swimming even at the end of September.
If you are looking for peace and quiet in an Italy that is still untouched by tourism, this is the place for you, and you will appreciate the excursions to the small villages and towns in the surrounding area. However, we did much less than we had originally planned, simply because we wanted to enjoy the beautiful vacation home and had a wonderful rest here.
Thank you to the Hilliger family, Ilona, and Dino for an unforgettable week's vacation.

We are having a carefree and relaxing family vacation at Villa Tartaruga, and we are toying with the idea of not wanting to go home.
The rooms are furnished just right for us, and the pool with its view is a dream. The kitchen offers everything you need for self-catering, although we tried out many of your gastronomic tips in the region and thoroughly enjoyed Italian hospitality.
We would also like to give a special mention to our local contact, Ilona. She was always there when we had questions.
Thank you very much for this wonderful vacation, and stay healthy in these challenging times."

“For us, Villa Tartaruga is synonymous with a thoroughly relaxing vacation. The beautiful house, set in a lovingly landscaped garden, leaves nothing to be desired. The lovely pool is another highlight. You can feel in every detail that a lot of heart and soul has been put into this place. That's why we always love coming back.”

"A dreamlike property in beautiful countryside. Very spacious and luxurious living area, well equipped. Great pool area. Beautifully designed, well-maintained garden. The on-site support was unobtrusive but perfect. The contact with the landlords was extremely pleasant.
We would love to come back again."

The Schildkrötenrücken – a little island of bliss. If you can't relax here, you don't deserve any better.
Nestled in the lovely countryside is the property where we felt like royalty for two weeks. The furnishings and comfort of the house, especially the fully equipped kitchen, leave nothing to be desired. The pool and its surroundings were extremely well maintained. We particularly enjoyed it in the morning hours and also had our lunch there. It is obvious that the owners are committed to providing their guests with an unforgettable vacation."

What can we say, we absolutely love Villa Tartaruga! We are really enjoying the wonderful summer days here, and the children won't leave the pool.
We found the house to be very well maintained, and after “discovering” the folder with the renovation photos, we can only congratulate you: We have had a house renovated ourselves and know how much time, money, and effort goes into it. With the right planning, you can create something that pays respect to the original and fits perfectly into the area—you have done this perfectly! ...
Finally, we can assure you that we are already planning to come back..."
