We spent an amazing six days at the property and loved our stay. The check in was very smooth and Fede met us on arrival and explained everything to us very clearly. Ale took over for the rest of our stay and could not have been more attentive. He helped organise a wine tasting for us and also arranged to have a chef come to the house to give us a cooking lesson and eat a delicious traditional Tuscan meal. One of our cars would not start one day and Ale even offered to take a leave of absence from work to try and come and help. He really went above and beyond to help with recommendations of places to visit, local restaurants etc. We loved the terrace area for enjoying breakfast and lunch and found the beds very comfortable. The living area was also nice and cool despite the high temperatures. I would definitely recommend this to friends and family. Altogether a great holiday in a beautiful part of the country.

Can’t say enough about how great this house was! The views! The house is absolutely adorable! From a story book! Outdoor space was incredible! Loved making dinner in the kitchen (kinda made from local market which Sophia recommended which was amazing! I wish I could stay there for a week!!!

Leonardo’s place was the stuff Tuscan dreams are made of. When you think of a beautiful authentic Tuscan getaway, this is it! Leonardo was super quick to respond when we had questions. He had left us wine and cheese and helpful information as well. Just FYI -The bedrooms and bathrooms were up a narrow stair case so we just left our suitcases downstairs which worked out fine for us but could be an issue if you have mobility issues. We stayed out in the lounge chairs and hammocks for hours; if you walk down into the olive groves and to the right, you can see the sunset over the incredible Tuscan hills. Our only issue was finding it both times we drove in - the first day, we took a wrong turn and ended up on a one-lane dirt road but miraculously came out on the main road and found it easily from there. Coming home from Siena the next day, we took a different route so then got confused. But these inconveniences were outweighed by everything else. Highly recommend!!

Valeria and Simone have a super nice and clean apartment! We felt very comfortable right from the beginning. The apartment offers a great starting point for numerous hikes and excursions. During our stay, we always got good tips and advice from the two. Our dog also felt very comfortable and since the property is completely fenced, he was able to move freely. We would come back back. It was an incredibly beautiful time!

We loved staying in Montalcino at Lisa's place. Lisa was a fantastic host and responded quickly. She gave us her picks for restaurants, wine tastings, etc, which were excellent choices. The Airbnb was ideally situated right off the main square. It has a yard, which we enjoyed, and a very functional kitchen with everything we needed. The king-size bed was very comfortable and had high-quality linens. This is a hilltop city, so keep this in mind for anyone unable to walk up steeper inclines throughout the city. We enjoyed the exercise and the stunning views. We stayed for a week and I could have easily stayed longer as we got to know the restaurants, stores and the area. Montalcino is a charming place to spend your time. It was a good location from which to take day trips. There is so much to do in the general area. We highly recommend you stay here; it was the highlight of our trip, and we felt like we were in good hands. Thank you, Lisa!

We are delighted with this vacation at Vanda's, where the location of the accommodation allows easy access to many sites to visit in the area. The house is quiet and well equipped. The garden offers a green and shaded relaxation area. Vanda is an extremely friendly and discreet host who takes care of her visitors and who succeeds, despite language difficulties, in establishing a caring atmosphere. We were privileged to have met him and we will treasure our time.

This accommodation has a really nice view. The bedding was clean and the bathroom was clean. There are two swings, a playground with a slide, a garden, and the kids were happy with animals such as mountain rabbits, cats, mountain birds, snails... etc. I was grateful that the hosts were so kind and sweet. I recommend this accommodation that I want to go to again.

Top location, with excellent amenities. The view is stunning and a big plus for the private cooking class! Don't hesitate, just book.

We enjoyed our stay at Francesco's place, the only downside was that we were a little to early to use the very beautiful pool, which we didn't expect. Francesco was busy cleaning the pool while we were there, and it is officially open for use only from June onwards. Fortunately we found a swimming spot at the river nearby, and other than the the place was great and Francesco was helpful and friendly.

This is Tuscany at its finest! Our stay at Casa Bonari was perfect. The villa inside was spacious, beautiful, comfortable, and wonderfully Italian. It was equipped with everything we needed. The exterior grounds were gorgeous and the views from the property in every direction were breathtaking. We made dinner and ate on the patio - it looked like a picture from a magazine. The villa is within easy walking distance of the charming Monticchiello which has a few excellent restaurants. We enjoyed strolling the picturesque streets and the incredible views of the countryside from the village. Our hostess, Valentina, was very gracious and helpful. We enjoyed meeting some of the friendly family members. They were so kind and left us with happy memories. We highly recommend Casa Bonari and hope to visit again.

We spent the whole week in this house. We look forward to welcoming you to your stay. Claudio was helpful and explained all the issues related to the accommodation. The host was waiting in the village next door. It was important because the access road is specific. In general, I recommend a car with a high and good suspension, possibly 4x4. There are quite a few ruts and potholes (they were being repaired during our holiday) and it is certainly a challenge for ordinary cars or SUVs. The road is gravel. We liked it and had fun driving our off-road car. As for the house, it is a beautiful, old and atmospheric property. The style can be seen outside and inside. Great pool. Beautiful views and surroundings. The quintessence of Tuscany. A good base for excursions. I wouldn't change anything there. The equipment is complete. Cleanliness also without reservations. Overall, it's great!

We loved our stay in Volterra. If anything, we wished we had booked a longer stay. The Airbnb was wonderful. It’s on three floors as described, so be ready for the stairs. Don’t worry… they’ll get you ready for the climbs around Volterra. Otherwise, the pictures don’t do it justice. It’s spacious and has all of the needed amenities. Volterra is a walkable city, and this spot allowed us to get to everything with ease. It’s on a quiet street, but still close to everything. Perfect. As a traveler’s note, if you take the bus into town, take it all the way to the end of the line. We got off at the earlier spot to save us some walking, but that earlier stop was not a good one! Trust me.

Paola’s place was an incredible getaway for the two of us - we played fetch with Nilde in the garden, had a night where Paola taught us to make pasta and tiramisu, and enjoyed the best sunsets. If you get a chance, definitely check out Osteria Alla Villa for dinner. We will definitely be back! Thank you Paola for the hospitality and making our first trip to Tuscany so special.

Absolutely beautiful luxury home in the very heart of Arezzo overlooking the Grand Piazza. You could not ask for a more perfectly situated place to enjoy the town or a more picture postcard view out the dining room window. The entire apartment has been recently renovated and feels like a luxury hotel with modern design features, pristine everything, and integration of the beams/stones of the old medieval building. We absolutely loved our stay. Air Conditioning in every room, very comfortable beds, and a responsive host who helped us restart the (fast!) WiFi when it had a minor glitch one day. I was able to work part-time with the solid internet connectivity that many AirBnB homes don't have - but this one does! One thing to note is that the home is located in a ZTL so might be tricky to get a car close enough to drop lots of bags. We were on foot with roller bags so not a problem for us. Loved it and can't wait to visit again :)

What an incredible location!!! Monticchiello is the most quaint and picturesque town nestled in the heart of Tuscany. Walking up to the accommodations feels like a fairy tale - the view of the Val D’Orcia and the medieval tower you walk into, but you are then transported into the most relaxing little apartment. The amenities are wonderful - the attention to detail was not lost on us. We stayed here right after our wedding and it was exactly what we needed. Also, Deb’s Lounge was such a nice place to get breakfast (included!) and we enjoyed some fresh pici pasta for dinner our first night. Would 100% come back!!

Our stay at Sonia’s place was like a week in a fairy tale. To stay in an 18th century home in Tuscany with the front door on the town square and the private rear terrace with a million dollar view was extraordinary. As for comforts & conveniences: There’s a parking space in the gated backyard, the beds are very comfortable, and the kitchen has lots of wine glasses. There’s also a well-stocked supermarket at the bottom of the backyard stairs. And if you see the food truck just below the center of town, be sure to stop for a sandwich. If you can get away from the terrace, Carolyn & Sonia recommended the restaurant Enoteca Baldi, and we do too.

Wow-10 days spent at Alec's villa and could have stayed longer! The age and beauty of this place makes you feel transported back in time. From the stone walls, the detailed wall paintings, furniture and decor, to the solid doors easily hundreds of years old... We spent hours just speaking of it's history. The house is clean, spacious, and had plenty of room for our family of 8. It is situated on a small family vineyard at the top of an incredibly windey road. There outdoor space was safe/secluded for my kids. The hill made for wonderful beautiful views and sunrise. However, as with much of Tuscany, we were glad our rental cars weren't too big! The closest town is 5 minutes away and has a few restaurants... Though not somewhere you can have coffee or walk the streets. About 15 minutes away is San Casciano where you can find coffee shops, restaurants, stores etc. Alec is a perfect host... helpful, responsive, and answered dozens of questions weekly. Book dinner at A Casa Mia for sure!

The wonderful view can be enjoyed both as a couple and with friends. It is very quiet and everything has been thought of: outside there are very comfortable seating options, a grill and pool. The garden smells of jasmine everywhere. There's nothing missing inside either. The house is perfect and is in the perfect location. After 20 minutes by car you can reach San Gimignano. Simply a dream and always worth a trip 😍

Beatrice was an amazing host. She was very responsive to our questions and always very helpful with suggestions and recommendations. This was the perfect place for our group of 8 adults for 2 weeks. The location was perfect for visiting various sites around Tuscany. Florence, Cortona, Siena and Pisa. The nearby town of Greve had some nice little restaurants for lunch/dinner. After a long day of sightseeing we would gather on the patio to have charcuterie and wine. Or gather at the family style dining table each evening. We highly recommend having Beatrice provide a home cooked meal, it was excellent! There are several wineries and olive oil tastings in the area. We took advantage of many of them. Overall we were very happy and very comfortable with our stay. We highly recommend staying here. If we ever come back we are definitely staying here again. You'll definitely get the true feel of Tuscany.

Our Villa in Montespertoli was everything we could have wished for and more, full of all the modern conveniences required to cook if desired. The grounds were absolutely delightful and the hillside backdrop of grapevines etc was stunning to wake up to every morning in a secluded and peaceful place. We enjoyed many mornings having coffee around the poolside deck and afternoons sharing a glass of wine chatting with our friends after our many touring adventures. You definitely need to have a car to enjoy this Villa and surrounding areas like Pisa, Siena, hot Springs, San Gimignano to name a few. Our Caretaker Lia cooked us a delicious Sri Lankan dinner to share on our last night which we enjoyed immensely. Thankyou for hosting us in your home, we didn’t want to leave.

The home was located about 1/2 mile from several quaint small towns. Many great restaurants and tours through the beautiful hills and wine country. Very relaxing for family, friends or just to see you unwind by yourself. I highly recommend this location. Take advantage of tours arranged by Nicollo'and his family. We had a ball! Thank you.

Perfect place to stay for exploring the Tuscany region! Roberto’s son Simone was so helpful in suggesting where to go and was always quick to respond. The house itself was meticulously renovated to have modern amenities with still some old world charm.

Leonardo, Lisa, & Nonna Sylvana all went the extra mile to make things run smoothly for us. With the welcoming torta & pizza, & the homemade lasagna a few days later, we were able to get by with very few groceries for the week. The villa & surroundings are incredible! The house is immaculate & well supplied. We didn't have a car but having one would have been nice to reach the surrounding area. We navigated the bus system that is available & it took us awhile to figure it out, but once learned, we were able to get to & from Florence. We walked to & from Impruneta which was further away than we realized. It's a bit tricky with no sidewalks, so we had to be careful. (Note: No taxis were available.) We splurged on a winery tour through Tours of Tuscany that picked us up & dropped us off at the villa, & drove us to 2 different wineries & San Gimignano. Amazing! Communication with our host was easy, very pleasant, & timely. We'd love to return & spend even more time there some day.
