Thank you for your interest in our villa in Italy.� Vacations are difficult to arrange and risky at best when one decides to take a trip overseas, especially when not going through a recognized travel agent or familiar agency. However, my family and I would like to help in familiarizing you with our home in Italy.
��� My wife and I lived in the villa for several years until we decided to return to North America.� The villa had been our home for nearly five years and holds many indelible memories.� Although we now live in the States, we still consider it our primary home and visit each year usually for the month of June.� The villa is nestled within a known vacation resort at the outskirts of Lamezia Terme.� Lamezia is a city of approximately one hundred thousand about two hundred and fifty miles south of Naples and about an hour-and- a -half drive from Reggio Calabria where a fairy can be taken across the Straits of Messina to Sicily.� Its international airport has flights to and from various European cities as well as direct flights from Toronto, Canada and� New� York.
��� The villa itself is a two-story home with three bedrooms upstairs, two of which have access to a balcony.� A bathroom upstairs has a bath and shower and a large vanity.� Downstairs, you'll find your living room with a wood-burning fireplace adjacent to a spacious kitchen with� gas range, refrigerator and a small dishwasher.� The kitchen is fully equipped with all the necessary china and cutlery.� A small bathroom includes a shower and a washing machine.
��� The back yard has a patio equipped with various garden furniture as well as a lovely garden with flowers and palm trees.� A small front yard also is interspersed with gracious flowers and a lovely Washington Palm tree.� The entire villa is encircled with high hedges to ensure privacy.
During your stay, our close friend Cinzia will see to it that all functions well.� She will greet you at the airport upon your arrival, accompany you to the villa, and show you around the home and the resort.� She will be available to sort out any potential problems or questions you might have.
Expect a clean, well-functioning home, completely furnished, clean linen and towels, a TV, radio,and air-conditioning; but most of all;� expect the genteel, cultured manners of southern Italians, that has bestowed the legacy of being so simpatico.
Sincerely,
Morris and Birgit Cavalieri
