We had such a wonderful stay and can’t recommend this villa enough! We stayed in July 2026 with a group of 12 people, and there was more than enough room for everyone. The house is absolutely beautiful, and the property is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay.

There is plenty of space for everyone, both inside the villa and out on the lovely terrace. The pool was a huge hit with the kids, and the expansive garden gave everyone room to relax and spread out. One of our favorite touches was having chickens and a fresh vegetable garden on the property—it made the whole experience feel even more special.

If you’re visiting during the summer, definitely come prepared with mosquito repellent—they can be pretty active, especially in the evenings.

I would also highly recommend renting a car. It makes it so much easier to explore the surrounding area and come and go from the villa on your own schedule. The nearby town is absolutely adorable, and Florence is only about a 30-minute train ride away, making day trips incredibly easy.

The owner, Simona, was truly the best part of our experience. During our stay, my dad became sick, and she went above and beyond to help us navigate getting him medical attention. She answered all of our questions, provided guidance, and even offered to help translate if needed. That level of kindness and care meant so much to our family.

We also hired Benedetta from Bosco Di Mezzo Home Restaurant, whom Simona recommended, and she was phenomenal. Every meal was delicious and made our stay even more memorable. Beyond the incredible food, she was incredibly compassionate when my dad became ill. She checked in on us regularly, stayed in constant communication with us, and was always available to help however she could. Her kindness and genuine concern made an already difficult situation so much easier for our family.

Overall, this is a truly beautiful property with a wonderful pool, an enormous garden, and everything you need for a memorable stay in Tuscany. We’re already looking at booking this villa again for next summer. We highly recommend staying here—you won’t be disappointed!
