Overall, the villa was very comfortable and Rosado was a wonderful host.
While it was fully disclosed regarding the additional charges for the power and gas, I might suggest that this be added into the rental price. For the hot tub, renters should be given the option of being charged prior to arrival. For gas and electric, most travelers coming from the United States have a reasonable expectation that the rental fee covers these charges. While Rosado was very transparent about this on check in, estimating the amount of cash needed was difficult and for a 15 day stay and the amount of Euros needed far exceeded what any one person could have obtained from an ATM. I would also suggest that the owner be prepared to take credit cards for such charges, including the deposit.
Internet in the villa was very weak, with the signal confined to the first floor. Repeaters should be placed in the villa on each level so all occupants have access to internet. The television was placed in an awkward location on the main level. I might suggest to Rosado that he either move the TV into the living room, or switch the living and dinning room spaces. The living room furnishings seems a bit worn and eventually will need to be replaced. The stereo provided in the villa was very old and not in keeping with today's technology.
Overall, all occupants of the villa seemed very happy. The view was beautiful and there was plenty of space. I would recommend the villa for a future stay.

The owner was amazing but the overall comfort was lacking, the bed was hard it was like a box spring without a mattress and the lack of hot water was very inconvenient and although the size of the room was perfect it was very damp feeling, I wish we would have had a dehumidifier.
The location was perfectly located with the train station just down the hill next to a great place for a pastry and coffee.

We spend a week in Casa Vago. The house is not new, but perfectly clean and wel equipped: good beds, kitchen, washing machine,... The house is close to shops, the railway station and the highway, which makes it a perfect place for discovering tuscany. We did a lot by train, very comfortable.
The house has nice views, a garden and gives acces to the Tuscany nature as well.

We LOVED this Villa ,it was everything we dreamed of ,the owner Gloria was a True Darling and really cared about us , Her Mum cooked us a FABULOUS dinner , they sourced anything we asked for ie: firewood and the joy of sharing their dogs and cats made it seem like home , whilst English was scarce we had a bond that transcended language , her hospitality was wonderful .The Villa is remote down a mountain tiny road we knew that and that was part of the appeal , we did have a little difficulty finding the property and I believe a sign up on the Highway and one actually in the front of the Villa should be considered .
We would go back again , as we had a Hire car a 9 seater we travelled and did day trips , the closest town is the most Beautiful Cortona with the Best Coffee , everywhere you turn you see a painting Truly a memorable country Tuscan stay . I would rate it a 10 /10
