Staying at Christina’s villa was one of the highlights of our trip to Italy this year. We enjoyed a wonderful meal prepared by Christina and her mother on the night we arrived. The accommodations were very clean and comfortable, and we wished we could have spent more time on the property. Many thanks for the great hospitality! ##### Chris W.

This ancient property has a beautiful history linked to the owner. Cristina, and her family welcomed our Italian-American family with open arms. We prepared a fabulous Tuscan feast together in her kitchen while learning the home’s history, sharing stories and recipes over several bottles of wine. The property was stunning and transports you to another time. The Villa is a hidden gem! Don’t pass this one up! Viva Italia! ##### John V.

Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Natalie W. 18 Aug 2018 #### Sorry to say but a little disappointing Our family stayed here for a week in July 2018\. We were disappointed as the villa did not live up to our expectations or the photographs and reviews. It was a little tired with threadbare rugs on the floor. I appreciate the building is old but the furniture doesn't have to be! The curtains and tablecloths in the bedrooms needed laundering and although the bathrooms were clean all four ensuites had severe mould. One of the bedrooms had disabled access and a wet room effect but wasn't able drain the water away leaving the bathroom swamped in water all day long. We didn't actually use the fourth bedroom in the basement as intended. It was very damp and musty and the mould in the bathroom was just not acceptable. There was a humidifier in the room which showed there was obviously a problem with the room, the sheets felt damp and there was an obvious smell of damp. My daughters shared a double bedroom upstairs instead of having their own. I spent 3 hours upon arrival with a scrubbing brush and some special treathment to make all the bathrooms acceptable to use. The mould was clearly from several months worth of incompetent cleaning and not just a poor service or quick handover. I made it known to the owner Christina who lent me the scrubbing brush and apologised that the bathrooms were not acceptable. I pointed out that their cleaning company should see the before and after photos that I took and she agreed. Christina did say that she would send the cleaners back to the villa in the week but this never happened as she went away herself for a week. Ricardo, Christina's brother was extremely helpful when needed, one of our toilets didn't flush and he arranged a plumber to come and fix this. However there was no communication between Ricardo and Christina as on our departure date we argued the cleaning bill of 100 euros seeing as I had had to do the cleaning of the bathrooms when I arrived and he knew nothing about this problem. After a discussion and showing him the before and after photographs he agreed this was not good and we paid half the price of the cleaning which we appreciated. Our villa experience this time was unfortunately not one that I would want to repeat. However the pool area and gardens and view were just as photographed and very well kept and clean, comfortable sunbeds and a spectacular view that we won't forget. The property was a good location for sightseeing and close to a good mainline station. Roberts Family ##### Natalie W. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2018 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Cristi R. 30 Oct 2016 #### Authentic Stone Villa in the Hills We stayed in the smaller villa in early October. The area was isolated and charming with the sound of running water outside the back windows. If you are looking for a relaxing place in the country this will be a great option. Before booking I looked at many places and read countless reviews so for anyone reading this, I hope it is helpful! I would recommend visiting in the warm months when you can use the pool and enjoy the beautiful natural setting. For my family it was too cold at this time of year and we went sightseeing or shopping every day so we didn't get to enjoy the property to its fullest.. This property will be ideal for a group that wants to enjoy the local area. It was closer to an hour in high traffic times to Florence. I would definitely return with others that appreciate a laid back atmosphere and don't need tv in every room. The photos are accurate and its decorated very nicely. Everyone we came in contact with was very nice. The homeowner went shopping for us before we arrived & the brother delivered wood for the fireplace (for a fee). The Coop grocery in town was great! There is a washing machine on property and you can line dry clothing. We travelled with a nine month old and they had a crib & high chair. It would be best to bring children who could walk bc of the stairs & stone floors. I highly recommend you arrive during the daytime so that you can easily find the place and take time with the host to learn the ins and outs of your rental. It will make for a much better experience. ##### Cristi R.

Das Haus ist in einem sehr guten Zustand und hat den Charme eines stilvoll modernisierten Landhauses. Die Gastgeberin war sehr nett. Den großen und sauberen Pool (von dem aus man einen tollen Blick über das Tal hat) teilen sich die Bewohner dreier Ferienhäuser. Die Reinigung ließ leider ein wenig zu wünschen übrig. Wir würden hier wieder Urlaub machen. ##### Karsten U.

We were able to immerse ourselves in the Italian countryside and relax. The pool was as wonderful as the pictures, and we were in it within an hour of arriving. Cristina, her mother and her girls took great care of us, including preparing an amazing dinner our first night so we didn't have to worry about that after traveling (we came from Monaco by car). We were a large group of 7, mostly teenagers, and everyone loved the house, the pool, the view, the peace and quiet. So much space, we fit comfortably. We wish we could've stayed longer than 4 days. All the other 5 star reviews are true, excellent all around! ##### Ron N.

The house was breathtaking and yet it felt like home. Our host and her family were so welcoming. My son and his cousin enjoyed the pool with a view of the valley. We played with Luna the kitten and Therese the lop eared bunny. The other guest were friendly. I only wished we had stayed for another week so that we could spend more time relaxing in the perfect Tuscan get-away. Last night we tried to recreate Christina's signature sage ravioli, I think we got the sage leaves right 😉. Grazie Mille! ##### Gayle S.

This antique villa was beautifully and thoughtfully decorated, each room outfitted with a bathroom and door leading outside, and each with its own personality. The infinity pool is a stunner, with views looking straight out on Tuscany - though shared with the guests of the other villas. The owner, Cristina, was a gracious hostess, offering olive oil made on the estate, and local wine for our homecoming. We were able to buy an infinite amount of tomatoes from Cristina's garden, and as an additional special touch, she and her mother cooked a real Tuscan meal for our party, two families amounting to nine people - which was well worth the additional charge! It's a (steep) adventure getting to the villa, but the location is well-situated near Florence. Our family loved our stay, and had a hard time parting. We definitely recommend it. ##### Magdalena O.

Das gesamte Anwesen wurde gerade mit einer unglaublichen Liebe zum Detail renoviert. Die Wohnungen - wir haben auch die beiden anderen Wohnungen gesehen - sind daher in einem sehr guten Zustand. Der Pool ist am Hang gebaut und bietet einen tollen Blick über das Tal; die Bilder sind tatsächlich echt (die Google-Luftbilder sind älter, so dass der Pool dort noch nicht zu sehen ist)! Die Umgebung ist einfach traumhaft. Über dem Dorf der Wald für Wandertouren, darunter die Olivenhaine bis ins Tal. Ein Auto ist zwingend erforderlich, da der Weg von Vaiano in das Steindorf Savignano ziemlich steil ist. Nach Prato fährt man etwa 15 min mit dem Auto. Wer nach Florenz will, stellt es am besten kostenlos am Bahnhof in Prato ab und fährt für 2,50 EUR in 30 Minuten nach Florenz. Alles in allem der perfekte Ort für entspannte Tage mit Familie oder Freunden. Wir kommen sicher wieder! ##### Steffen H.

Great small or large group facilities with two other separate houses in close proximity. Need a small car to access Prato & nearby towns or hire a bus. Beautiful views, friendly, helpful owners who speak English. Really good area to visit - close to Lucca, Pistoia, Florence and Prato which is a very interesting town & much underrated. Very good restaurants in nearby towns & the surrounding country. Our stay here added considerably to our Tuscan experience after a few days in Florence. Thoroughly recommended. ##### Robert B.

The owners are lovely and so helpful. Situated in the hill just outside Vaiano, it's perfect for a quiet getaway but with in easy distance for Florence, Lucca and other places of interest. The property it's self is in immaculate condition and full of history. The grounds are beautiful and the pool in amazing with such stunning views. It's perfect for a family holiday, and we had a wonderful time. I can't recommend it enough. You can't fail to have a wonderful here :-) ##### Colin G.

We were 2 families from Virginia and feel fortunate to have found this amazing property and lovely Christina who was so very accommodating. We were there in June and the property and view is breathtaking. The beds and rooms comfortable, rustic but with modern bathrooms situated within a stone villa with 12in thick walls. Christina brought us a lovely "light supper" on the day we arrived which was amazing and so very appreciated. We loved our time here and hated to leave. Lounging at the beautiful pool with a view and a glass of wine after a day of sightseeing was heaven on earth. A car is key as you are in the hills outside of Prato - can rent a car right in town. Would highly recommend this lovely villa! ##### Mary Kay J.

Il borgo è immerso nel più assoluto silenzio rotto solo dal lento scorrere dell'acqua, pura, del torrente che passa a fianco della casa. L'arredamento della casa è molto curato e tutti i servizi offerti sono di ottima qualità, inoltre la disposizione delle camere permette il massimo della privacy, anche eventualmente a tre coppie. Questa casa è ideale anche per chi viaggia con un cane (come noi): c'è possibilità di fare lunghe passeggiate nei dintorni, c'è uno spazio recintato e il torrente è la piscina ideale per far divertire anche il nostro amico a quattro zampe. La piscina a sfioro è un vero gioiello, acqua cristallina su una superba veduta della valle del Bisenzio. La cortesia e la disponibilità dei proprietari, che abitano in prossimità dell'alloggio, è veramente unica e assolutamente mai invadente. La permanenza in questo alloggio è stata di 14 giorni... E' un luogo che vi consigliamo sinceramente ##### marco s.

The bedrooms are shuttered and stay very cool so I slept amazingly, awaking to the sound of trickling water every morning. Lazy days by the fantastic pool with the one of the best views ever. If you are in need of relaxation this is the place for you. STUNNING! Xx ##### Anna R.

La villa est située dans l'enceinte d'une magnifique propriété agricole familiale et les anciens bâtiments ont été restaurés avec beaucoup de goût. La maison est immense et parfaitement équipée, la décoration est très soignée. Le jardin est magnifique et donne sur les champs d'oliviers : un vrai paysage de Toscane où le temps semble s'être arrêté. La piscine est immense et le paysage de montagnes est vraiment très beau. Les propriétaires et les résidents de la propriété sont tous absolument charmants et ont largement contribué à la réussite de notre séjour. Maria-Teresa, la propriétaire, et ses enfants ont tout fait pour rendre notre séjour agréable et leur hospitalité a été remarquable. La ville de Vaiano est située à moins de 10 minutes en contrebas et, sil elle présente peu d'intérêt sur un plan touristique (industrie textile), elle permet de s'approvisionner facilement. On peut rayonner facilement dans la région. Nous recommandons vivement cette location qui est de très loin notre meilleure expérience ! ##### Yves H. ---
