Cortona is a charming medieval hilltown in Tuscany which is an important artistic and cultural centre. Within the walls of the town, it can sometimes seem as though time has stopped long ago and everywhere you turn, you will see historic architectural gems. However, some of the real highlights of the town and its surrounding area are its churches. The Church of Santa Maria Nuova, in particular, as a centralised square-plan Renaissance church, is a prime example of an important principle of Renaissance construction. Santa Maria Nuova was built by Giorgio Vasari in 1554 and is an example of one of that great architect’s later works. If you’re an architecture lover and have found a luxury villa in Cortona, be sure to stop by and check it out.

This was our second time spending two full weeks at beautiful Villa Chiara!! And would absolutely go again. I highly recommend staying at this gorgeous property nestled high up in the hills overlooking the spectacular views of the olive groves below and the shimmering evening lights across the way in Cortona. The house is a beautiful in person as shown on the website. Chiara and Marco are very welcoming and attend to all your needs.

We stayed at Villa Chiara for two glorious weeks! Marco greeted us at the villa on our arrival date and showed us all around his beautiful villa and breathtaking property. The villa was absolutely beautiful and equipped with all amenities. It is in a great location and we were able to drive to several Tuscan regions for day trips.
We definitely plan on returning!Would you recommend this property to a friend? Yes

Fantastic villa, fitted to a very high standard. Gardens and pool beautiful and well maintained with a large outdoor dining area. Situated in a very quiet spot on hill with views to Cortona. Can walk to a local pizza restaurant, car needed otherwise. Owner showed us around on arrival and was available to message throughout, although we didn’t need it. I have no hesitation in recommending this villa,

Had a wonderful week at this villa. Everything about the property is first class. Our host met us at the villa to give us the keys & explain all the features. This is a gated villa. The views are incredible as the villa is up high on a hill. You can see Cortona from the villa. All of the decorations were beautiful. The bathroom/showers were very clean & really nice. The beds were comfortable. Plenty of room everywhere to relax. The kitchen has all the things you need to cook with. There is a washing machine also. We sat by the pool in the sun. Very relaxing too. There are 2 TV’s and 2 areas with sofas to hang out in. The entire property is pretty spectacular.
