From greeting us at the airport, to arranging dinner reservations that first evening, to prompt responses to all our text queries, he made us feel welcomed and at ease. The villa itself was a blend of authentic Tuscan charm and modern amenities. And the view!! We awoke each morning to a stunning vista of Montecatini Alto and Terme. The rolling hills and vineyards are truly unforgettable. The location allowed us to easily drive our rental car to Alto, Terme, Lucca, Florence and Volterre. Dining al fresco on the terrace, with an amazing 5 course meal provided by a superb chef (again a recommendation of Simone) was a highlight the entire family will forever cherish. We wholeheartedly recommend this villa to anyone seeking a comfortable and authentic Tuscan experience. ##### Allan D.

The pictures cannot do this beautiful home justice - you have to see it for yourself!! The view, the amazing property, the Tuscan touches in the decorating with all the modern amenities - we already cannot wait to go back!!! We slept so comfortably and had everything we needed at the house for some relaxing afternoons and evenings enjoying wine, good food, and the view :) Our host Simone was very communicative and so helpful with tips of local places to visit and to eat. The location was perfect for day trips to Florence, Pisa, Lucca, Siena, etc. and the town of Montecatini Therme has plenty to do as well. We have traveled a fair amount and this is by far our favorite place we’ve ever stayed. ##### Mary Z.

The views were amazing and the amenities were great. We loved having coffee from the upstairs balcony and eating outside on the terrace. Wifi signal was very strong if you have to work. The girls loved the 3rd floor nook and having lots of space. Both Lauren and Simone were great to work with and Simone gave us lots of real time recommendations and helped us make dinner reservations. We were able to use the pool club next door which was a huge perk. Location was great near Montecatini Alto and close to lots of great cities, but really felt like you were living in Tuscany. ##### Jennifer F.

Our group (3 adults, 2 kids ages 8 and 4) spent 3 nights at Villa Poggio Scalette. First of all, the property itself is so peaceful, private, and full of natural beauty. The location is an ideal 'home base' for exploring Tuscany- an easy 30-minute drive to Lucca, and 1 hour to Florence. Plus, you are 10 minutes away from all the conveniences of Montecatini Terme, and 5 minutes away from charming Montecatini Alto. Secondly, the house is spacious, clean, comfortable, and full of modern conveniences (temperature control in each room, washer AND dryer, modern kitchen) that make life so much easier, especially with kids. Lastly, both the owners (Roberto and Lauren) and the local host (Simone) were constantly in touch and responsive throughout our entire stay. They shared helpful restaurant recommendations, helped us order take-out from a local restaurant one night, and even assisted when we needed to order a piece of medical equipment through Amazon! On our last day, Simone gave the kids a gelato-making demonstration at his family's gelateria, and then he and his brother prepared a private, delicious 5-course dinner for us at the house. It was a great way to end our stay, and a perfect example of the hospitality you can expect when staying here. We hope to plan future stays with family and friends! ##### Joseph M.

We rented a car in Florence and took a scenic one-hour drive to the villa. Upon arrival, Simone, the property manager, greeted us warmly at the gate and gave us a thorough tour, making us feel instantly at home. The villa is stunning—tastefully decorated with rooms that overlook olive trees and the charming town of Montecatini. We felt secure thanks to the gated parking. On our first morning, we indulged in a delightful continental breakfast for just 10 euros. The local pastries, croissants, and espresso were the perfect start to our day, and the service was impeccable. As avid walkers, we explored Montecatini’s old town, just a 10-minute walk from the villa. The town boasts amazing views, quaint cafes, and fantastic restaurants around the square. We also rode the funicular down to the main city—an absolute must. Montecatini is famous for its thermal baths, and we couldn’t resist visiting Stabilimento Termale Tamerici for a relaxing day. Simone, who also owns the best gelateria in town, recommended excellent dining spots. Pizzeria Il Gallo was a standout for its incredible food at great prices. For steak lovers, Simone reserved us a table at La Baita, where we enjoyed an unforgettable evening with special treatment. Villa Poggio Scalette is conveniently close to Florence, Lucca, and Forte dei Marmi. We highly recommend this magical villa and can't wait to return! ##### Mauro B.

La mia esperienza a Villa Poggio Scalette a Montecatini Alta è stata eccezionale, un rifugio perfetto durante il mio viaggio di lavoro. La villa, immersa nelle colline toscane, offre una combinazione ideale di storia, comfort e tranquillità, con facile accesso a Lucca e Montecatini Terme, a pochi minuti dall'Autostrada nelle vicinita’ di Firenze e Lucca e Vinci. Abbiamo scelto una colazione all’italiana, servita direttamente in villa per soli 10 euro a persona. Tuttavia, c’è anche la possibilità di richiedere una colazione intercontinentale o persino un servizio di cucina in casa come extra, rendendo l’esperienza ancora più personalizzata. L'accoglienza di Simone, il gestore della villa, è stata calorosa e professionale. Ci ha guidati attraverso la proprietà, spiegando tutto ciò di cui avevamo bisogno per il nostro soggiorno, e fornendo ottimi consigli sui ristoranti e le attrazioni locali. La pulizia è ottima, e gli spazi sono curati nei minimi dettagli, rendendo il soggiorno confortevole e rilassante. La vista sulle colline toscane è mozzafiato, creando un'atmosfera di totale serenità. Ho appreso che sono in corso dei miglioramenti per la primavera del 2025, tra cui una jacuzzi all'aperto, che arricchirà ulteriormente l'esperienza. Questa casa padronale, è un piccolo paradiso privato, perfetto per chi cerca qualcosa di diverso da un classico hotel, un luogo dove rallentare e apprezzare la bellezza della Toscana. Consiglio vivamente di visitare! ottimo! ##### Daniele P.
