Rental Date: Monday 7th of October 2013.
Renter Rating: 4/5.
Review Details:
Vila was pretty much what we expected. The hydro/heat was not on when we arrived, the villa not as clean as we would have liked, and no basic supplies provided to warrant an excellent rating.

New Review Submitted for Poggiobello located in Farneta, Tuscany, Italy.

Rental Date: Saturday 28th of September 2013.
Renter Rating: 5/5.
Review Details:
We looked for a property that had Tuscan charm and Poggio Bello did not disappoint us. The villa comfortably accommodated 4 adults having 2 ensuited bedrooms that were located at opposite ends of the house. The kitchen was very well equipped and all appliances worked well.
The views of the countryside were relaxing and the setting was tranquil.
The town of Camucia was a 12 km drive with all the amenities we required such as a large Co-op with extended hours, restaurants, caffes, a weekly Thursday market, train station and, many other shops and services.
Day trips by car to Assisi, Orvieto and, Civetta, were easily made. Train connections to Florence were also good.
Most helpful was Simonetta and her family. The family was very friendly and helped us with any inquiries or requests we had. The property was well managed and we would recommend it to others without hesitation.

Renter Rating: 4/5.
Review Details:
Casa Turchesa is in a wonderful location. The views are lovely. The house is spacious and it is a short walk into Greve with good shops, restaurants and market.Monica is very helpful. The house could do with a couple of comfortable armchairs for the evening time. Overall a great base for this part of Tuscany.

New Review Submitted for Appartamento Le Volte located in Pisa, Tuscany, Italy.

Rental Date: Thursday 10th of October 2013.
Renter Rating: 5/5.
Review Details:
The apartment was wonderful and probably our favorite of the apartments we stayed in during our two week Italian vacation. The unit is very charming with the curved ceilings, rustic beams, and beautiful kitchen fixtures. The apartment's location is perfect, very close to the Leaning Tower, and close enough to the train station to walk (if carrying luggage, it might be better to take a taxi). It's best to close the windows in the living room and kitchen at night since they open onto a small street. There is some noise from people walking by or an occasional scooter. The windows and shutters block any noise when they are closed. We left the window in the back bedroom, that faces the courtyard open all night, and didn't hear any noise. The apartment is very peaceful, the washing machine is easy to use an the providing drying rack is large, which was very nice. The owner provided an internet hot- spot, which was great. However, connectivity worked best if you were near the unit. The walls are very thick, so reception wasn't great if you were too far away. The unit is portable and is about the size of credit card (but thicker) so it was easy to keep nearby. We would definately stay in this apartment again, on our next visit.

New Review Submitted for Al Palazzaccio located in Lucca, Tuscany, Italy.

Rental Date: Saturday 28th of September 2013.
Renter Rating: 4/5.
Review Details:
Lovely villa and grounds with nice views. Very good restaurants within a 5 minute drive. Little details that should be noted: sufficient bathroom towels available for all guests plus the toaster was not in good working order. Caretakers did not do a walk through of the house upon arrival and the security deposit was not collected. Rooms should have had a good vacuum before arrival. Upon saying this, I did my stay at Al Palazzaccio.
