This unusual facility is strategically located in an area that offers easy access to the surrounding Florence/Tuscany sights, whether it be shopping, historical interests, outdoor activities, or dining. It is filled with some unusual, interesting antiques and offers a unique experience in terms of living in this "castle-like" tower. The kitchen is well set-up with amenities, and the beds are comfortable. There are, however, some problems with parking. We were told that there was parking next to the unit and, if that was full, there was a large public parking lot a short distance away, which was true. What we weren't told was that the three close units were paid parking during "working hours" and the public lot was subject to being usurped for a town fair. Subsequently our rental Audi was towed and damaged in the process. While the owner graciously paid for the tow, he blamed me for not seeing the sign written in Italian that said the event was taking place. If we had been advised, we would have taken precautions. Now we are subject to paying damage for the car. I never rent a place if I don't have car access, and I want the terms expressed clearly. Is it free? Are there restrictions? Is it on the property or not? These are reasonable requests. The second issue was the extraordinary number of stairs. We had to keep our luggage on the main floor because it was impossible for us to bring it up five flights. It is a tower, but you don't realize how daunting until you're actually there. The steps are narrow and irregular, which doesn't help. In all fairness to renters, I think your company has an obligation to clarify the issues with this place. I would not stay here again.
Ein wahres Bijou. Mit viel Liebe zum Detail, geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Küche ist komplett eingerichtet, mit allem, was das Herz begehrt. Alles in Topzustand und absolut sauber! Unsere Ansprechpartnerin vor Ort ist ein wahrer Schatz!
Die reservierten Holzliegen und Sonnenschirme garantieren entspannte Ferien. Gepflegter Pool. Das Haus ist ruhig gelegen. Straße kaum hörbar.

Everything we were looking for in a vacation rental !! After day trips around Tuscany and we loved to return to this quiet, comfortable home at the end of the day. The owners were so wonderful and accomodating. We will definitely want to stay here on our next trip to Italy. Thank you for everything :)

Perfect location to plan day trips around the region and in a beautiful setting. Marco, the owner, was always very quick to respond to any needs and extremely helpful. Hope to be back.

We booked La Capinera for a week for our honeymoon and just loved it.
We were greeted by the owners with glasses of fizz to celebrate our wedding, and were very soon left on our own in our little paradise in Tuscany.
A great base to see Florence, Pisa, San Gimignano, Sienna and the Chianti wine region, we were torn between traversing the Italian countryside cursing the SatNav and relaxing by our very own private pool.
We cooked, we drank, we relaxed and had the time of our life.
A wonderful place with wonderful memories.
Would highly recommend.

We had the most incredible time in Italy,
Our Villa Casa Acqua was just what we needed to experience the real Italy. Our hosts were so warm and we really enjoyed the cooking lessons in their home.
We plan on returning again soon.
