Amazing views, stunning sunsets, fabulous hostess with great family history and charm (can't say enough about this one in words!!!), and quiet, small hometown feel. There are plenty of activities within driving distances of 1-2 hours or less to make the Tuscany area complete. Easy access to the COOP and other local needs. Recommend paying attention on hours of operation for afternoon closures, am/pm, and weekend/holiday closures. I would recommend bringing your motion sickness drugs for those who have difficulty in the car-lots of windy roads, but views that make it all worth while!!! Michelle, Wayland, MA-USA

The property and gardens of Casa Luciana are truly beautiful, with plenty of space for children to enjoy a run around and of course have the use of the lovely pool. The bedrooms are extremely comfortable and the communual areas are spacious and very well equipped. As a family, we have rented villas in Italy before and Casa Luciana is now at the top of our list. We had a wonderful family holiday and would have no hesitation in recommending it to other families. The owners provided a warm welcome and were extremely helpful (the locally made wine was excellent). All going well, we will return.

Great place and great apartment with wonderful swimming pool. The manager (Simone) was also great. The Villa was a little ways from Florence central, but there was a bus within about 10 minute walk from villa. The only real negative was the walk to the villa was along a very narrow enclosed road that you had to deal with cars and walking was a little dangerous. Great place, though.

We truly enjoyed our stay at Tenuta Di Corsano. My 7 year old child felt this was the best part of our 2 week Italy trip. They loved the beautiful gardens and the fantastic swimming pool. The owners were very warm and were fantastic with my children....allowing them to play with their new puppies which was a highlight! It was a great location and easy for us to get into Sienna, San Gigimano and even Pisa. I would definitely recommend this Villa.

Loved the property - and it was just as advertised. The location overlooking San Gimiagno was absolutely amazing and an easy drive / walk. to house itself was charming with the kitchen / bedroom / bathroom in one apartment and then a separate living room right across the walk way. Plus there was a great outdoor eating area. The owners were incredibly helpful and friending. And the dog Gulliver (3 months at the time) was a great addition to our holiday fun. Definitely recommend this place.

Al Fanucchi exceeded our expectations. It is the perfect place for a large family, a group (we were four couples). The residence has everything we were looking for and then some--a fully equipped kitchen which we used extensively, all the bedrooms and baths were comfortable, the living room which served as a dance floor and the upstairs TV/reading room. But the best was the patio overlooking the valley and hilltop town with al fresco dining, BBQ, and comfy chairs for reading and sipping. The pool was an absolute delight, especially after a long day of hiking and sightseeing. We all thought the location was perfect--easy to get to Lucca and the surrounding wineries and a reasonable drive to Pisa, Cinque Terra, San Gimignano and Volterra, and Modena. We look forward to coming back.

My husband and I had a wonderful week in the charming farm-
house with the most spectacular wiew to the winefields and to Montalcino- the standard of the house was very fine it was
wellfunctioning and clean as wel was the area round the house and the pool.Only we should have liked a little better and bigger frying pan to prepare the very good t-bone steaks and more.
We will especially remember the most fantastic help and kindness from the owner of the property Andrea Ciuti. The way he helped us and his hospitality in all ways cold not be emphasizid enough.
Tis wonderfull place we will surely return to and recommend.

We stayed the last week of June and loved our visit. Podere Il Doccio, Casa Ocra is located in a wonderful area surrounded by woods, grape vines, and a running stream. It's in a secluded area which makes it quiet and peaceful. Town is close-by, approximately five miles away which has restaurants, gas, and transportation connections. Our villa had all the comforts of home including WiFi, and a great outdoor porch.

This villa was in an excellent location--just a bus trip into the center of Florence, yet you also felt like you were in the hills. Private setting with very nice gardens and pool. Besides our apartment there were other spaces available for relaxing. We traveled with two college students who wanted to travel to other cities as well, so we were on the road a lot. My husband and I would have liked to spend more time at the villa given the serenity it provided.

What a stunning place to stay!! We booked both Massi 1 & 2 (14 Adults 4 Children) to use as a base for our wedding in Certaldo Alto. Massi sits on top of a hill between San Gimignano and Certaldo, about 3 miles away from both and surrounded by grape and olive fields with beautiful views all around. If you want to experience typical Tuscan countryside then this is the place to come!
