Gabriella and her husband are fantastic hosts. They are warm, caring people who love to help with any request you have! The only things our party would like to see improved for future visits (and we DEFINITELY plan to return) would be improved beds and improved internet access. While you typically want to detach from "the real world" as much as possible on vacation, we used it to plan routes and daily agendas and it was inconvenient to have the wireless internet service crash so often. The beds were very firm and uncomfortable, and could be replaced with much better mattresses.

These two points don't significantly detract from the overall warmth and peace we experienced at this great property. The structures are tucked away from the nearest road and provide an incredibly peaceful setting. Do yourself a favor and experience this great villa!

This is a comfortable, spacious villa and we had a good week there. I would recommend it more strongly in the summer when it would be possible to enjoy the many outdoor areas to sit - at the end of October it was cold until we arranged for the heating to be switched on and heating is expensive. There is also no washing machine and the kitchen is small. You have to collect the key from Viareggio.

Villa Carolina was a highlight of our 4 weeks in Italy. Gabriela and Lucia were awesome hosts, and their "in villa" meal was superb! Lucia's ragu is definitely something to write home about! Facilities in the villa were new and it was spacious for the 4 adults and 2 children in our group. Kids loved the pool! We would highly recommend Villa Carolina to anyone wanting to be in a central location in Toscana, with excellent hosts.

Casale Rosanna was spacious, with a well equipped kitchen, comfortable and clean! Our host was gracious and took the time to explain the features of the home. We truly felt like it was home away from home. The vista from the terrace was absolutely stunning. I spent one full day enjoying Casa Rosanna and the landscape around me - being able to see San Gimignano was liking viewing Camelot. It was the highlight of my month-long trip to Italy.
