Many people dream of a special vacation at least once in a lifetime, or maybe every few years, that brings together the people we love most for some quality time and to make some really special memories. Whether that might be getting the old gang of pals back together again for some adventures and to truly unwind or a gathering of the extended family for a big celebration or to allow the adults to relax while the kids play together, there are all sorts of combinations of larger groups that might want to get away in bigger numbers. 

The serious foodies among those who book villas in Tuscany will likely be arming themselves with a list of the must-try foods and drinks and restaurants that they want to ensure they make time for throughout their stay. A cuisine steeped in peasant cooking traditions, it boasts lots of hearty dishes full of vegetables, legumes, bread, and cheese that are full of flavour and will leave you full and satisfied. Meat, of course, also features in Tuscan cuisine but often dishes were traditionally made making the most of smaller amounts of meat. Today, this is less of a concern for many and delicious dishes that will keep the carnivores among your party very happy are also on offer. Perhaps the most famous of all of Tuscany’s meat dishes is the Bistecca alla fiorentina, or Florentine steak.

Raymond C. from Floral Park (United States) who stayed in Villa Alessandra Alla Poggetta in August 2023:

“What a beautiful property and house. We were welcomed by Lucia and the owner of the property upon arrival. This property exceeded our expectations. It was well maintained and the owner stopped by every morning to make sure the flowers were watered and the pool was cleaned. We had use of the beautiful pizza oven and had a chef prepared meal that was fantastic. The property was located close to a train station that brought us to Florence in 37 minutes. All the bedrooms were air conditioned, which we only had to use one night. Best vacation ever- will be back soon.”
