Family Vacation
What a lovely property. We stayed with our extended family and had a magnificent time. The air conditioning was not powerful enough for the summer heat so we did not use the upstairs bedrooms which were the nicest two - a bit unfortunate. Overall this is a spectacular home and we highly recommend it.

Huge stunning house
The only one downfall about this house is in some of the room the AC is too weak for the size of the bedrooms so it was very difficult to cool down.
Other than this everything was amazing. The house is fully kitted out with everything you could possibly need !

Beautiful property
We had a lovely two weeks at this property. It's large and attractive, with plenty of rooms for everyone. Probably the best part of the experience was the hostess Jeannine. She was an amazing communicator and very responsive when we had any issues. She was absolutely invaluable to us as we learned the area. Be sure to take advantage of all the offerings she can arrange (ie cooking class with Lorenza, painting class with Liz, groceries, and even a private custom meal cooked by her - one of the best meals we had in Italy!).
We really appreciated that we could walk to the local town, although it is quite small (just a few cafes/restaurants, a small grocery and not much else). Fortunately the two restaurants are quite good. Please note that while there is reference to a local train station we saw no evidence of any train service to the town. You will need a car (several if you're a large group).
Some aspects we appreciated: the home gym, the AC (although it struggled during a heat wave), having 2 laundry facilities, and the beautiful pool.
The house is probably best for multiple families, since it's two distinct houses (and the layout is a bit awkward). We were one large family and wished there had been a large gathering space where we could all eat together or play a game. But there are plenty of individual rooms to accommodate families who want to spread out. Be aware that the property is spread out with a lot of stairs, so probably not ideal for the mobility impaired.

UTTERLY AMAZING
I don’t often write reviews but wanted to make an exception given our experience. This will help with the review so I will point out that I am a bit particular when it comes to hotels and their cleanliness 😊.
The photos of this house looked perfect and it was in the region we were looking for (close to Pienza) but there were only a few reviews as it is a newer house to VRBO. Upon booking, Instantly the houses host (Jeanine) reached out to ask how she could assist regarding scheduling of any cooking classes, yoga, daytrips etc…. Arguably one of the best moments of the trip was pulling up to the house, meeting Jeanine and getting a tour. The house was recently renovated and it is simply amazing. It is pristine. The pictures do not do it justice. Everything was fully renovated and the grounds and pool area are immaculate. The pools backdrop is olive groves with vineyards directly behind. It is exactly how we had always thought Tuscany would be and the location was great for quick trips to the surrounding towns.
Having a good host really is important. Jeanine stocked groceries for us so we did not need to run to the store as soon as we arrived. Someone else referenced the lasagna and that was possibly our families favorite meal of the entire trip as we ate it on the outdoor veranda the day we arrived.
This house is exactly how we dreamed Tuscany would be and we thank Jeanine and the owner for sharing it with us. Enjoy!!!!

Exceptional Experience
We stayed for five nights to attend family wedding 30 minutes away. We had an exceptional time. The Villa was a magnificent place. Our host Jeannine was great from meeting us the first day familiarizing us with the Villa, providing us with a delicious lasagna dinner for our first night and being available throughout our stay. A great venue Congratulations to the owners.

Fantastic property
The property is extremely well maintained and feels brand new. The location is perfect for exploring wine country and villages! The property manager is extremely responsive and helpful, and went as far as stocking groceries prior to our arrival and preparing dinner for us the first night.
We were very happy with our experience.

Unforgettable Family Vacation in Tuscany!
The property is amazing! The photos don't do it justice. We loved everything about the place and our family made memories to last a lifetime. The rooms, pool, and views are all great!
Enjoyed walking through the olive grove in the crisp early mornings and lounging by the pool in the warm afternoons. The bocci ball court was loads of fun.
Jeannine, the property manager, is super helpful and very responsive. Our family included son, daughter-in-law and their 3 kids, so the separate guest house was a perfect setup for them. The rest of us stayed in the main house with each having our own ensuite bathrooms. Beautiful furnishings - very tasteful and eloquent but comfortable at the same time.
We can't wait to return.
