We stayed in a two-bedroom apartment there with our two teenage daughters for ten months. We especially appreciated the fact that we could walk to nearly everything or catch a bus a half-block away. Our favorite place to hang out was the courtyard, and we spent many lazy afternoons lounging by the pool! It always felt like a safe place for our daughters, and we loved coming home to Villa Serena."</em> --Tom and Maya Frost<br /><br /><br /><blockquote></blockquote><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/28550435-114831790441327988?l=villa-serena.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Andrea Giebelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18357332965843282234noreply@blogger.com14
