Its a wonderful apartment, furnitured with great taste, in a wonderful landscape at the beginning of the Crete, close to Siena. Perfect for anyone who looks for a exceptionally calm, harmonic place to come home to after a wonderful day admiring art and life style in the Toscana. The owners are very nice and always reachable. The appartments are very well kept, everything functions perfectly, everything one needs is there, also things not that usual for Italy e.g. towels, bedsheets, kitchen equipment and so on. We spent a fantastic week there and already think about coming back one day...!
This apartment was spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped. We enjoyed it immensely - but much of the enjoyment was its location, on the grounds of a working winery. The views are breathtaking. The only difficulty is the access road, but once you've traversed it, it becomes much less daunting. We were in and out of the property every day, and access became a non-issue. Proximity to San Gimignano made things very easy (there's a supermarket there, along with some very good restaurants) and access to other tourist attractions was great. The hosts, Andrea and Claudia, and David, our wine expert, made us feel welcome. We would return for another visit in a heartbeat.
This villa is exactly how you would imagine a Tuscan villa! Gorgeous, well maintained, and perfect for a large group or family. The chef was fantastic and the views cannot be beat! Only thing -even if you don't think you need a car, you do. The train station is only about a 20 min walk, but it's not an easy walk. Other than that - do not hesitate to book this villa, you will not be disappointed!
The villa was beautiful and the setting was exactly what we were hoping for. In our opinion the website pictures do not do justice to just how beautiful the setting was.
In perspective this rental is a charming, ultra clean unit which is part of a larger building. However, the accessibility of the unit is very misrepresented and other features are not as described. "First floor" would seem to indicated easy access to the unit. In truth it is a long 25 plus stone stairs DOWN followed by two full marble staircases UP before entering the unit (no rails on the final set up stairs. We are two quite active 60-70 year olds (with aging knees) and the challenge of suitcases etc. (we travel light) was not insignificant. Yes, this is a hill town and stairs should be expected but I scoured rental descriptions to get something reasonable in this regard and this missed the mark for me. (The owner lives in the unit below and was helpful with bags--parking is also a major challenge)--but he does not speak English and not the "official" agent.
In addition, we very much wanted WiFi access in the unit and this was not available as advertised (it is in some bars/cafes at the top of those stone stairs, but not the same as in the unit.) Also , there is no tub as advertised. Finally, those with problem backs beware, the bed in master bedroom is very soft.

The villa was everything we hoped for. We loved being right in the piazza. The neighbors were so friendly. Irene couldn't have been more helpful and we enjoyed getting to know her family when we had our cooking lesson at their house. What a wonderful night!! I would definitely recommend this villa to family and friends.
