My family of 5 had a wonderful time at Spuntone. The pictures really do not do justice to the house. It is larger than it appears on-line, beautifully landscaped and decorated, well-stocked and perfectly located. The kitchen is small, but worked fine for us. We were a little concerned about noise the first night we arrived (a Saturday), but things were much, much quieter the rest of the week. We took trips throughout Tuscany during the day, returned in the late afternoon and let the kids swim in the pool, and then walked into town at night for a gelato and/or glass of brunello. It was a fantastic experience.

Our family was searching for a venue for our daughter’s wedding near Siena; she had chosen to be married on my husband’s and mine 30th Wedding Anniversary, her 29th birthday and my 50th – we had a great deal to celebrate. We all count ourselves honored to have had Lilliana and husband, their daughter Francesca + Sylvia as our hosts. The arrangements started over one year in advance, and at every turn, they took care of every detail with loving care.
The properties themselves are gorgeous: the website and pictures do not do justice to the natural beauty and old world charm of the estate. The rooms are decorated comfortably yet in an old world fashion: one part of the house is over 400 years old! The pools and grounds are impeccable. We worried that having all of us under one roof might be uncomfortable (~30 of us) but the privacy in each apartments gave us room to be separate while letting us enjoy one another’s company.
Lilliana is an exceptional chef: her welcome meal was pronounced the best meal we had in all of Italy (several of our guests said it was the best meal of their life!). We enjoyed an exceptional tour of Siena a week prior to the Paoli, thanks to her introduction of an expert historical guide.
We hosted our daughter’s weddings on the grounds – photographer, flowers, local musicians, caterer, wine from the estate and an amazing cake (whose identify I still don’t know) all coupled with exquisite decorations… all done remotely via email, and all carefully selected by Silvia, Francesca and Lilliana. My sister said, “It was like a fairy-tale”. It was stunning, and we owe everything to these lovely women’s good taste.
I could not give a higher recommendation: we trusted them with one of the most important days in our family’s life. Our thanks to the gracious and hardworking Migone Family.

The Villa was wonderful. It is in a great location and accomadated 10 couples wonderfully. The kitchen is small so would not advise booking a cooking class, it was a lot of money just to have someone come cook for you, there was no room to participate. We had some issue with wasps and yellow jacket out by the pool area. The views from the Villa are increditable!!! The Owners Ricardo and Sheri and the care taker Patrick were wonderful. Patrick puts together tours and we spent a couple days touring around with him and had a great time. The villa is about 20 min from Siena and about 45 from Florence. It was good to have a car as it is a little remote but in a really great location. I would recomment this Villa to my friends.

This is a fabulous property with an outstanding view. If you are unsure of the location (Chianciano Terme), I can assure you that it is centrally located to all major points of interest - Siena, Florence, Montalcino etc... We were originally suppose to have a villa very near Montalcino but this location served us better for day tripping. The villa is immaculate and the owner takes great pride in maintaining the property. We were a party of 5 people and there was more than ample space for a larger group. I would highly recommend this property.

We considered ourselves lucky to have found this wonderful house close to the village of Lucignano! The location is excellent for days trips (Cortona, Siena, Montepulciano), but a peaceful oasis if you feel like going nowhere. The kitchen is not fancy, but had all the right tools for preparing meals with fresh local food. The bedrooms were all comfortable, and the bathrooms were spotless. The owners were lovely: friendly and helpful when we needed them, but unobtrusive. The pool area was beautifully kept with an outdoor dining area and lounges/umbrellas. Our only regret was that our stay was not longer than one week!

We had a perferct stay at this place, the house is amazing and the pool the best. The gardener and poolmen was very nice. The surrounding is astonishing.
