Guest Reviews for Villa Sonia

Villa Sonia was perfect in every way, The buildings are beautiful, the grounds immaculate. The facilities inside are very modern, with plenty of everything to allow us to explore cooking with the local ingredients. We even tried out the pizza oven on our last night.


The layout of the buildings gives plenty of space for everyone to get together or, find their own pool of tranquility. This made it a joy to spend the week with friends and family (we had 6 adults, 3 teens and an 8 year old). The pictures on the website really do not do justice to what you will find when you arrive.

A big thank-you to Barbara & family who were perfect hosts, so welcoming and friendly, this made the checking in process after a long day of travel painless. They were always there to help with anything (we had a power cut the first night, and they arrived in minutes to fix).

We're already thinking about a return visit. The honesty bar wine cellar a surprise bonus!

One minor niggle - and nothing to do with the property, is that there is no gelateria in San Donato, however the one in Castellina is well worth the short drive.

We had an amazing and restful time at this villa - as others have said, the pictures don't do it justice. It's set in a beautiful part of the country side, short walk to San Donato with shops, cafes, bars and restaurants. Larger supermarkets 15 mins drive away so a car is recommended - and easy to manage from Florence airport but allow plenty of time for collecting and dropping off hire cars at the airport as you need to use a short transfer bus and you might need to wait for 1 or 2 of the 20 minute loops to get on. We were 6 in the villa so all 4 children had their own rooms and plenty of space. The house is very well equipped and the owners have really worked hard to make it a home from home. Kitchen is very well equipped, there are lots of places to sit in the property by yourself or with others and the table football and table tennis table were a great addition. The local bourse management (Debora and family - you get to meet everyone! :-) are very supportive with advice when you need it but also leave you alone to enjoy the villa. Weather was hot (32 degrees generally) but the stone house manages the heat well and the air conditioning is perfectly adequate. We particularly enjoyed the volunteer-run pizza restaurant next to the Coop. Great fun and I can't think of anything about the property or the holiday that we could improve -- and of course you have Florence on your doorstep (use the 'park and ride'), and Pisa, Sienna, Lucca all very reachable for a day trip. If you pick this villa, I'm sure you'll have a great time.

An outstanding place to stay in Tuscany! I am so happy we chose to rent this property….three weeks in the summer was a bucket list fulfilled….to live for a bit in Italy, not just a night or two here and there. The property is better than the pictures show. A very old villa, extremely well maintained. We had 11 kids and grandkids the first week, 7 the second week, and 4 adult couples the third week. Ample room, large enough kitchen, great unique bedrooms, the pool was very well used and enjoyed every day. Owners Sonia, Mirco, and Debra were very accessible, took care of minor issues when they occurred, were so very helpful and made our stay very special. The nearby town of San Donato was very cool…medieval streets and buildings, three great restaurants, a cafe for coffee in the morning or gelato later in the day, walking distance from the Villa…..very cool. Also a smallish COOP food store….think small grocery store but with cheeses, meats, produce, wine….all you need ….although we did head to nearby Poggibonsi a couple of times to shop at a truly large grocery with many more choices. Highly recommend having a rental car as we used it often to visit nearby towns, many winery visits, and trips to the Airport to pick up and deliver our guests. Thank you Debra, Mirco and Sonia. You are the best!

A perfect venue for our family celebration.
There was plenty of space, beautiful garden areas. The pool was clean. The kitchen very well equipped as was the laundry room.
Plenty of space for us to eat together inside and outside.
The owners were quick to respond if we have any issue and we’re very welcoming and pleasant.
The location is perfect for visiting key places of interest,
It was great to be able to walk to bars and restaurants were the locals were very friendly.
We would definitely consider visiting again.

Nous avons passé 2 semaines formidables en famille dans cette magnifique région. La maison (ou plutôt les maisons) sont très confortables, le terrain est immense et la piscine magnifique.
Les hôtes ont été aux petits soins pour nous. Tout a été parfait.

[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] We spent 2 wonderful weeks with the family in this magnificent region. The house (or rather the houses) are very comfortable, the land is huge and the swimming pool magnificent.
The hosts took great care of us. Everything was perfect.

The villa is breathtaking. I was speechless while being shown around the property as it is so beautiful. The pictures do not do it justice. The pool is incredible, the villa has all the amenities you would ever need and more. The grounds to walk around are beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at villa Sonia and would love to come back again. The host Debora was so friendly and answered all our questions. This place is worth every penny.

We had the most incredible week at Villa Sonia. Debora and her family are wonderfully welcoming and accommodating. The Villa itself is a perfect combination of traditional and functional - the perfect family friendly stay in a beautiful setting. We will absolutely be back!

Absolutely fabulous! It is an incredible property & Debora & her family are super! We would thoroughly recommend Villa Sonia!!

Nous avons résidé à 10 adultes et grands adolescents (17 ans). La maison est parfaitement équipée et très agréable à vivre, ensemble ou dans des petits coins isolés. Florence, Sienne, San Gimignano, Pise... sont rapidement accessibles et le soir nous avons pu profiter de la piscine, du baby foot, du ping-pong... et des restaurants du village. Et des conseils de Deborah (de la famille des propriétaires) en anglais ou en italien.
We stayed at 10 adults and teens, the house was perfectly furnished and equiped and we enjoyed visits in Florence, Sienna, Pisa... and the swimming pool to rest. Nice stay. We recommend the house and the owners-family.

Villa Sonia was perfect for our family vacation. There were eight of us in five separate rooms. All the spaces were very comfortable. The villa is spotless and well equipped. The grounds beautiful. It is very obvious the owners take very good care of this property. Debora met us upon arrival and gave us the grand tour to familiarize us with everything and answers our questions. As far as the location, it's close to Florence and in the heart of Chianti. We even were able to tour the beautiful Val D'Orcia region (highly recommended) and were back in time for dinner. There's a wonderful grocery store with everything you'd need plus wine very close by. I wouldn't hesitate to return.

Una estancia de ensueño. La villa está situada espléndidamente a mitad de camino de Florencia y de siena (aprox 30 km de cada una) lo que permite acceder varias veces a las mismas. La villa es preciosa. Muy cuidada. Vistas estupendas y una piscina magnífica.la vivienda espaciosa y con todo lujo de detalles. Pegada a un pueblo medieval con todos los servicios como san Donato in poggio. La propiedad es súper atenta y está disponible permanentemente para solucionar todos los problemas que puedan surgir. Un acierto sin duda. Un diez todo. Problema generalizado en la
Toscana y con el que hay que estar alerta, los mosquitos. Gracias a Débora, sonia y marco por su disposición. Inolvidable

[English translation courtsy of Easy Reserve] A dream stay. The villa is splendidly located halfway Florence and Siena (approx 30 km each) which allows access to both several times. The villa is beautiful. Very well maintained. Great views and a magnificent pool. The spacious and luxurious home of details. Attached to a medieval town with all services such as San Donato in Poggio. The owner is super attentive and is permanently available to solve all the problems that may arise. A success without a doubt. A ten for everything. Generalized problem in Tuscany and with which you have to be alert, mosquitoes. Thanks to Débora, sonia and marco for their availability. Unforgettable

Great holiday, introduced to the property on arrival by the family/owners. Beautifully clean and the layout suited our 3 families perfectly. The kitchen was an added bonus, so many large houses we visit simply do not have the tools for cooking for 12 but this villa certainly does. So we eat most evenings at the villa but we did pop out and eat at the local pizzeria which is close and cheap and very tasty. Located with easy reach of San Gimignano/Florence/Siena and dozens of winery’s. We visited Fatteria La Ripa about a mile away and the host was knowledgeable and great story teller, so much more interesting than the normal ‘we produce 150k bottles and they cost €!’
All round great holiday and great and well appointed inside and out villa and the A/C was a really appreciated and well used !!

We would highly recommend :-)

One of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed! Every comfort was considered. Many beautiful spots to sit and enjoy the view.

We had a wonderful time and the owners are terrific!
