I usually take these reviews with a grain of salt, Boy did I learn my lesson. All the previous reviews were Kind compared to my experience. For starters, the owners dogs run all over the property, nice gentle dogs, but at 200 bucks a night?? The pool was disgusting even to look at. The local radio station blares all day... More

I stayed here for the first time in 2004 under the former owners. It was so great I wanted to come back in October for the film festival. I made a reservation but cancelled because I couldn't make it. I came back in May 2006. I stayed in the same room. The biggest room they have. For starters, there was... More

Something terrible must have happened here...we had reservations for 2 nights, but checked out after one. The website showed a lovely, intimate little inn, when in reality, the room was dingy, not to mention that it was on the second floor, when I had told the innkeeper when I made the reservations that I had recently had a hip replacement...

I stayed at the Villa in March and loved the quiet atmosphere. The new owners were very nice and accomedating and the room looked newly remodeled with crown molding and wood floors. The breakfast did leave room for improvement although the manager appologized and informed me that the county had pretty strict rules about what could be made available. There... More

We stayed at the Montfiallo in March (2006). If you visit their website before going, you won't believe your eyes! "Buyer beware!" The Montfiallo website was obviously created, prior to 2004 (since we have seen no positive online reviews after 2003). It's amazing how quickly things can go downhill in such short time! The concrete pool was uninviting with numerous... More

Very disappointing experience. The website is very well done however the actual bed and breakfast is not representative. It seems to be managed by a bunch of unexperienced and unorganised owners. Our reservation was lost and they placed us in the wrong room. The cleanliness of the room was OK but not more. The carpet was rather disgusting. The breakfast... More

Luckily we read the reviews before going so I didn't expect much. The website shows lovely pictures of the European-looking center hallway entrance, which is the only part of the place that looks like that. Our room was clean and quiet, but really dated and rather faded. A lightbulb had been broken from the lighting over the bed and the... More

Please don't stop here, I stayed in July 2005 before any bad reviews had been posted on trip adviser, so my expectations were high. It was dirty, run down, and isolated! At night is was not light well so I felt very scared going to the room and there was no point sitting in the hot tub, as there was... More

Montfiallo was a very dissapointing Bed and Breakfast. Even more so after all of the hype that the website led on. We originally booked a week stay and didn't end up staying one night after spending just one afternoon there. We had the "best room in the house" and it came complete with a hole in the wall and an... More

This place was a nightmare. It looked like it hadn't been taken care of in months. There was a glass door that was broken. The pool was dirty. It was a LONG two blocks from the beach. And the rooms were far from the standards that we expected - especially in comparison to the price we paid. We ended up... More
