A lovely villa, really well appointed and finished to a very high standard. You can tell that the owners take pride in having developed an old out building into what is now a splendid property. The owner, Paulo, speaks passable English and will do anything to help. We were particularly pleased with his local restaurant recommendations as well as his help in getting a minor repair on our car done by a local garage. I can't recommend the villa and it's owners highly enough.

We, merried couple, spent a wonderful time at the Massi place. Everything was superb: great appartment, great position on top of a slope, great neighbourhood. Mrs Barbara Massi is a perfect hostess, proud of her property. In short, an absolute must!

This is a great place to rest and to explore Tuscany - very good standard and an extremely helpful staff. Everything was top notch, I highly recommend this property.

The property was an excellent choice for us, Panzano is only 20 min. walk and the apartement was really confortable. The swimming pool adds something special to the place and is really quite although not far from the road. The owner was really helpful and always available for advice.

A beautiful property, but unfortunately the €100 cleaning fee is quite simple a rip-off and we would expect a complete reimbursement, for the following reasons (i.e. the previous owners must have paid it. So comments below relate both to that issue, and some others:

Bedrooms dusty and in particular under beds very dirty
Lots of cobwebs and dust in living areas
Bathrooms not cleaned thoroughly - mats dirty and dirt in corner
Garden poorly maintained - lots of weeds on steps and long grass
Kitchen generally not up to standard:
Above oven canopy very dirty - thick dirt
Oven was not fully operational - only 2 burners working
Insufficient glassware and coffee/tea cups for number of people
No kettle
