it was extremely warm and the pool was delightful. My 6 grandchildren spent hours at the pool.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Aug 2023
We very much enjoyed the villa which was historic and the house and grounds incredibly spacious for our 10 adults and 4 children. Este is also situated for easy day trips to many vineyards (20 in away) and to Verona, Bologna and Padua. Dianna and Deeshka were terrific cooks and Antonio the property caretaker was very helpful on all counts. They adapted to our spectrum of waking hours and late night activities. The tennis court was fabulous (new net) and the 25 meter swimming pool a major source of fun throughout the day, especially given the heat. Only 5 bedrooms have AC and one of those is a twin bed only room, a disappointing fact to learn upon arrival. The internet was extremely spotty and only available in few 1st floor locales, a problem. The TV is very small and sadly we were unable to watch any of the Women's World Cup football games. All that said , the easy walk to town, to restaurants, to the local Castle with large playground and beautiful paths were all major pluses. It was a very fun and unique family vacation.

we just spent 2 weeks with 17 members of our family at
Villa Albrizzi, a fantastic privately owned estate.
The location in Este, a nice and vibrant little town, was perfect to
travel from to Venice, Verone, Bologna...etc.
the staff of 3 was wonderful and each meal was excellent, with vegetable coming from the estate own garden.
Villa Albrizzi has seen its share of visitors , the guests book first entry is dated 1867...

The property was excellent. A wonderful blend of modern comforts in the middle of antiquity! Yhere were 14 of us 9 adults and 5 teenagers and there was something for everyone. The location was suburb, a reasonable drive to Venice, Verona and Bologna. The town of Este was lively yet quaint. I can't say enough about the staff. DISKA, DIANA and ANTONIO were just wonderful and made my family feel comfortable and welcome. Every morning there was breakfast prepared and on several evenings we arranged for dinners at the property. DISKA prepared the menus and every meal was a wonderful experience and a genuine trip into regional home cooking. These are warm , caring folks and made our stay a truly magnificent adventure!!
