Monica and family went out of their way to make us feel welcome. They cooked numerous dinners for us, provided multiple birthday cakes and arranged group activities such as wine tasting, private chefs and transportation. The property is fantastic value for money and has all the necessary ameneties to host a large group. Thanks to Monica and family for going the extra mile and making the birthday one to remember! ##### Jenni W. ### 8/10 Good #### Gemma G. 9 Sept 2018 #### A house of pros and cons We were a group of 13 adults and 9 children aged 9 months - 15 years, needing a large holiday home on a budget. This house was perfect in many ways; good value for money, good room layout, activities for the kids and a pool. The location is quaint - a small village in the mountains, opposite the church (which bell rings on the hour and half hour). We had elderly people with us too so with access to the middle of the hous from the garden as well as to the bottom floor meant fewer stairs for those less able. The owners were very helpful, easily contacted and very kind to provide complimentary lasagne and homemade pasta as well as a birthday cake and were efficient with deposit return and utilities (which you pay for at the end - be aware. €300 for us). The were unintrusive but were there if needed, though a slight language barrier. However, the house is in need of some investment. There is so much potential for this to be great! It just needs some love. The playroom on the top floor is a superb idea, but most things are broken and it is poorly stocked (could do with some paper, drawing stuff etc and things to be fixed). It’s also worth mentioning that small children couldn’t be left - the windows are at shin height with insufficient bars to stop them falling - or jumping(!) out. This is the same for the bedroom windows too. Also disappointing was the lack of utensils in the kitchen. For a group of 22 we struggled to cater with very few chopping knives, serving utensils and dishes/pans for the group, despite asking for more. The map layout of the property is quite confusing and if you don’t hire it all, I just wouldn’t see it working to share the house. There are some sofas up in the playroom but no ‘lounge’ area to relax, only the kitchen table with benches. The property is rustic, so if you’re looking for luxury this probably isn’t for you. There was no ‘pack’ to tel you about local sights, restaurants etc, or to tell you where things were or how they worked. Electricity tripped a lot if too many things were on - eg you couldn’t have kettle and microwave on at the same time. The pool was freezing and I mean freezing. My 1 y/o would not go in and neither would I. The playground was a nice touch and the view in the garden is lovely. Good lighting outdoors too. The property worked for us as a group, we got by, and we had a great week here, just a shame as the place itself could’ve been a lot better given a bit of care and investment. ##### Gemma G.

The property is in a quiet peaceful village in the hills, however the church bell (next to the property) goes off every hour between 07:00 & 22:00\. The pool is not heated which was great to cool off in on a hot day. Monica kept us informed of local events, one of which was the Raviolo Festa in a local village, where they server locally made ravioli, had a DJ and craft fair and finished with fireworks. There are some lovely walks in the area as it is on the edge of a national park. ##### Pillipp M. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Elisa&Daniele D. 3 Jan 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Pessima esperienza Scortesia è la parola chiave di questo host. Accoglienza pessima, acqua fredda per la doccia, lettini da campeggio sporchi con le cimici e senza materasso per due bambini di un anno e due anni che avevano pagato per il soggiorno. Wifi assente anche se nell'annuncio è indicato, come i sistemi antincendio e la cassetta del pronto soccorso. Divani sporchi e logori.piscina non in sicurezza!Costi extra esorbitanti. Insomma l'alloggio peggiore dove soggiornare ##### Elisa&Daniele D.

The house is in a very small village without the presence of commercial activities. ##### Luca R.

The Villa is rustic and located in a tiny rural hamlet a short drive from Poppi and Pratovecchio. We had access to 9 bedrooms with en suite baths, two kitchens and a sofa room. We spent most of our time during the day sightseeing and wine tasting, but gathered at the Villa in the evening to make and eat dinner in the large kitchen, which is well stocked and functional. We enjoyed the outdoor terrace and spent some late afternoons sunning by the pool. Monica was wonderful in checking us in and providing a lasagna dinner and cakes for our first night, and arranging for fresh pastries and croissants to be delivered for breakfast. She also gave us good pointers for visiting Florence and Arezzo, which is not to be missed! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would go back in a heart beat. ##### Leanne R.

Months in advance we started planning, because we wanted to get married in Tuscany. And everything worked out perfectly! Monica was a great host and helped us with a lot of the planning. We also ordered the Wedding Aperitif and Dinner with the Service from her. The Service was great and the food tasted really good, so everything came together perfectly. The decor and flowers were beautiful. Even though we had a Wedding planner, she was More a help to us than the (very) expensive planner. So thank you Monica! The Garden of the Villa is perfect for get-togethers with Family and Friends. We Took some swims in the pool (which was a bit cold, but ok) and had a great Time. The House is Big enough for larger groups and had enough bathrooms. Almost every bedroom has it‘s own bathroom. The House is old, but clean and very charming. Monica served us complementary cakes and Lasagna. She also helped with Transport for a few of our guests. We had a great Time and we will never forget our perfect Wedding day at poppi castle and Villa Casalino. We hope to come back someday! Ciao, Maik & Susan ##### Leendert d. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 28 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Communication, location #### Basic vakantiewoning The holiday home is situated in a very small village without any facilities. Therefore there is no advantage in renting a home in the village. The sleeping rooms of the house a nicely decorated, but the house itself is very basic. The kitchen is upstairs and only has wooden benches to sit on. Also the kitchen utilities are very basic. We were not satisfied about the fact that everything is focussed on making extra money. Booking the house for 23 people does not mean you get 11 or 12 rooms. We got 9 rooms, you also get two bedrooms with 4 beds. For an extra room you have to pay a large extra amount. We did not think this is faire as the house was already rented to us for quite a big amount. And be aware of the enormous extra amount you have to pay at the end for wifi, water and electricty. We paid almost 10% of the price of the house. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amélie J. 27 Jul 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fijne vakantie met vrienden We verbleven met zes gezinnen (12 volwassenen en 12 kinderen) in dit ruime huis dichtbij Pratovecchio. We genoten van het zwembad, enkele uitstapjes en van de lasagne en pasta die de eigenaars hadden gemaakt voor ons toen we arriveerden. Fijne vakantie in een knap huis en mooie streek. ##### Amélie J.

The villa is beautiful with spectacular architectural details in every room. The wooden beams in the ceilings and beautiful wooden shutters at the windows were exactly the Tuscan look we had hoped for. The four bedrooms on the first bedroom level were lovely and now each bedroom has its own private bath. The grounds and pool were perfect with beautiful views of the Tuscan hills with gentle breezes day and night. As wonderful as the villa is the Mattoni family was the key to our wonderful stay. Monica helped us plan every step of the way and offered advice on places to go and always responded promptly to any questions that we had. Monica arranged wine tours, transportation to Venice and each week delivered a delicious lasagna dinner. Our granddaughter celebrated her thirteenth birthday while there and Monica also delivered a delicious birthday cake for the occasion. Monica’s brother Leonardo cleaned the pool and grounds everyday made sure we had an enjoyable stay. Best of all was the “hands on” cooking class taught by Monica and her sisters Elizabeth and Veronica. Everyone enjoyed this experience especially the grandchildren. Thank you Mattoni family for a wonderful vacation. ##### Barbara S. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Virginia O. 10 Oct 2018 #### Awesome Villa with even more awesome hosts we rented the villa for our wedding in tuscany. the house has a beautiful rustic, tuscan atmosphere with lovely details, big spacious rooms, kitchen, outdoor area. The garden has a big bbq which we used quite often. The whole Villa is set in a smail tuscan village of Casalino with friendly neighbors. The pool was ofcourse chilly end of september but that didnt stop us from jumping in quite a few times (even at 3 o clock in the night). Monica greeted us with very tasty cakes when we arrived and even baked lasagne for the whole group. She even organised the wedding with catering, flowers, dj and every detail imagine. feel free to trust her end leave everything to her- the catering was the best i ever had, with super friendly service. will not forget the trüffel pasta and tuna a la mojito and the wedding cake of which i had only one piece, damn it!!...i am already pushing my single friends to get married in tuscany so that i can taste the catering again..Dj was amazing too..we danced till 3 o clock in the morning( me being 9 months pregnant) and had a blast. Monica even organised a bus for us to and from the wedding, breakfast and a winetasting at a very noble vineyard, transfer for our friends etc.. she is like a fairy godmother with wishes. Her family is also very nice- the sisters and Leonardo, her brother who cleaned the pool and garden every morning, always with a cheerful smile. i cant thank Monica and her family enough for making our wedding a beautiful experience. Alex and i still talk about our wedding everyday and pat ourselves on the shoulder for having chosen Villa Casalino and Monica ;) A big hug from Virginia, Alex and Feya , we are coming back for sure! ##### Virginia O.

Wir hatten ein leider viel zu kurzen Aufenthalt und bereuen nicht länger gebucht zu haben. Das Haus ist ideal für große Gruppen. Die Zimmer sind liebevoll gestaltet und sehr schön. Die Vermieter sind sehr aufmerksam und freundlich und überraschten mit selbstgemachtem Essen. Die Gegend ist ideal zum Erholen, Wandern und Radfahren. Viele schöne Orte sind in erreichbarer Nähe (Poppi, Arezzo, Anghiari, Cortona, Florenz). Für große Familienfeiern oder Urlaub mit vielen Freunden ein ideales Domizil.

I just got back from a one week stay with my large extended family of 30 and we had a wonderful time! The villa was great and had plenty of space for all of us with a large kitchen where we could all eat together! The owner Monica was very helpful with setting up excursions to Florence, the zoo and a beautiful vineyard and airport transfers etc. she also greeted us with a cake on our arrival, cooked us a wonderful dinner mid week and surprised my daughter with a very tasty, authentic Italian cake on her 4th birthday that we celebrated while on vacation! ##### Emily T.

Monika ist eine fantastische und herzliche Gastgeberin, welche gute Tipps geben kann und ihre Gäste zu verwöhnen weiss. Sie hat uns das beste Cateringteam organisiert :)! Leonardo hat das Haus und den Garten gepflegt und uns mit seiner fröhlichen Art willkommen geheissen. Wir würden diese Unterkunft sehr empfehlen und wir werden eines Tages zurück sein.

The Villa was fantastic, clean , well equipped, nicely furnished and with a lot of space for us all. Our host Monica was more than fantastic and so was her brother. Monica fixed all our arrangements for us such as transfers, excursions and lunches. They even rented a car for our shopping which was waiting for us at our arrival at the villa and which they returned to the car rental when we left.( Ths is more than perfect service ) When we arrived two lovely pasta dishes and a big lovely cake waited for us. It made us feel more than welcome. We had a perfect stay at a perfect place and a perfect host who has a wonderful and helpful brother. We had a few in our group with some walking difficulties and before we knew it he fixed racks in the stairway so they could easily get up to our dining-room. We were all very satisfied with our stay and can highly recommend Villa Casalino. Best regards, Berit Jenshagen Paloheimo ##### Berit J.
