Tuscany Villa Rental Guest Reviews

The Villa, it's views and the area were stunning. The villa is up a 2 km untarmaced road so you should be careful if you have a sports car, but there is the advantage of privacy and peaceful surroundings.The hosts could not have done more to make our stay very memorable. We were a family including a 22month old.

We, merried couple, spent a wonderful time at the Massi place. Everything was superb: great appartment, great position on top of a slope, great neighbourhood. Mrs Barbara Massi is a perfect hostess, proud of her property. In short, an absolute must!

Craig Grimston - Dallas, Texas
I don't know where to start with the review. So many wonderful things to say about Casa Di Vignolo! First and foremost is the wonderful hosts Francesco and Marina. Francesco met us on arrival and showed us around the beautiful villa and the town of Pergine Valdarno. Everything you would expect of a Tuscan country town! The villa was a great central location for exploring Florence, Sienna and the wine country. Sienna is a must! You will need to rent cars for day trips, but the driving is generally pretty easy.
The highlight of our stay was the cooking class with Marina. What a perfect day! A few of us helped in the kitchen while others chose to laze around the beautiful pool and yard. The meal Marina prepared was the best of our whole vacation, and Marina is one of the loveliest, most gracious, women I have ever met. Her son Julio is a hoot!
We rented both villas, Casa di Vignolo, and La Miccia, and this accommodated 10 of us perfectly. It was a combination of old world charm with full, comfortable amenities. We shared a courtyard with other villas - became friends with our neighbours, and enjoyed playing with all the local cats! The village had everything we required - just a 10 second walk and you have delicious italian espresso first thing in the morning, as well as groceries, bakery, flowershop, bar, and newspaper store. We travelled all through Italy, and the local restaurant in Pergine Valdarno had the best food of all that we had tried (except Marina's of course!) and it was under a minute walk from the villa.
I cannot say enough about this wonderful villa! Staying there was the highlight of our whole vacation! Thank you Francesco and Marina!

One last note, I highly recommend booking through Easyreserve. They answered any questions we had, payment was easy, booking was easy. We had trouble with other accomodations we had booked through Italy, but Easyreserve was a blessing!

Lavacchio is located in one of the most beautiful areas of Tuscany and the villa is wonderful. The views of the countryside are spectacular from every part of the property, the rooms are all comfortable and well appointed with furnishings. This property is a beautiful place to spend your vacation in Tuscany. We will definitely return for many more vacations at this very special villa.

Wir freuten uns sehr auf unsere Waoche in La Madonnina und wurden nicht enttäuscht. Die steile Anfahrtstrasse meisterten wir problemlos und fanden trotz der Tafel "Fahrverbot" die schmale Strasse zu unserem Ziel. Dort wartete schon Morena und hiess uns willkommen. Das Haus ist grosszügig, sauber und gut eingerichtet. Wir waren 6 Erwachsene und 3 kleine Kinder und fühlten uns sehr wohl. Brouno sorgte jeden Morgen dafür, dass keine Blätter im Pool waren und war auch sonst für uns da. Auch die Distanz zum Meer ist akzeptabel und wir genossen es. Ein Haus zum Empfehlen!

[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] We were looking forward to our week at La Madonnina and were not disappointed. We overcame with no problems the steep access road and found the narrow road to our destination despite the panel "no entry". Morena was already waiting for us and welcomed us. The house is spacious, clean and well furnished. We were 6 adults and 3 small children and felt very comfortable. Bruno took care every morning that no leaves were in the pool and was always at our disposal. Also the distance to the sea is acceptable and we enjoyed it. A house to recommend!

Great place, the villa and the surrounding garden are beautiful, the appartment is very comfortable, large and furnished with authentic old furniture, the balcony has a great view, the owner is very nice, everything was perfect and we loved staying in the appartment. Its very close to Sienna and easy to get there by bus, which goes several times per hour.

Villa Podernovo is a wonderful and amazing place. It is an authentic place where we would like to return again, and again. All our friends liked Villa Podernovo. The owner and also Tino are great people, and they welcomed us pleasantly.
The decoration is very well-kept and chosen for this place which has history (old tuscan farm...).
Thanks a lot for this great moment.

Me and my family had such a great time in the house. The location is great for people who want to explore Florence,Siena, and the other wonderful small towns in the area. The house is situated in a lovely, peaceful place, which lets you appreciate the dolce vita of Italians.In addition, the house had everything we needed and much more, gave us the impression of what a real Tuscan house needs to be.
The owner was great, helped in every arising question, and gave us a true feeling of home.
We are sure to visit this lovely part of Italy, and particularly Casa Benedetta.

Wow what a beautiful place! The Hacienda was spaceous and well kept and had a beautiful terrace overlooking the vineyards. It was a short drive to Lucca and Pisa.
