We had a good time in Bracciano. Tess helped us a lot with information (there is also a book with everything you need to know, restaurants, points to see, etc), she was always available and answered within minutes. The location is nice, close to the village, shops and restaurants but you need the car for almost everything, specially if it's hot. There are some nearby beaches, private and open. The house is big enough for a family like ours ( 5 Person) and quite comfortable, I wouldn't call it luxurious. The kitchen corner is like described in the ad, small but functional. We missed the dishwasher. I found a bit odd that we had to pay for electricity and gas, so careful with the air conditioning. We didn't use it as we were out during the day and we opened all the windows at night to cool down. There should be a minimum use of electricity& gas included in the price and the rest extra. The biggest problem was the open air cinema, it was extremely loud making it difficult to sleep, and it happened almost everyday. It started at ca 8.15 pm and sometimes at 12.00 pm was still on. Otherwise we loved having breakfast and dinner at the terrace ( with lots of mosquito spray) and we enjoyed one day the jacuzzi, we had a lot of fun.
