New Review Submitted for Borgo Di Vinci: Vinci 10 located in Cerreto Guidi, Tuscany, Italy.

Rental Date: Wednesday 2nd of September 2009.
Renter Rating: 5/5.
Review Details:
Great location and spectacular views. The town is conveniently situated at close proximity to local and major highways connecting to Florence, Pisa and Sienna. However, this generally nice and spacious apartment could be better stocked with necessities. Unlike european residents who travel by car and can bring all they need from home we came from the US and had to start our stay by searching for a supermarket to buy kitchen supplies. There was no detergent, sponges, salt, etc. We also think that charging for the use of AC and final cleaning is excessive, considering that in our 2 week stay in Italy and at different private properties we did not have to pay extra for these amenities anywhere else. We hope that the owners will take a note of these comments. Overall, we had a very pleasant stay.

New Review Submitted for Castelmuzio located in Trequanda, Tuscany, Italy.

Rental Date: Monday 31st of August 2009.
Renter Rating: 5/5.
Review Details:
The villa was great. It looks just like the pictures on the website. This villa is for people who want to be in a very quiet and isolated setting. The owners were sweet and welcoming. They only speak Italian. Our only issue is that the dirt road to get to the property is terrible. We were worried about our rental care being damaged. A small jeep is needed.

New Review Submitted for Borgo Cappelli: Borgo Cappelli 1 located in Barberino Val D'elsa, Tuscany, Italy.

Rental Date: Saturday 29th of August 2009.
Renter Rating: 4/5.
Review Details:
This villa is located on nearly perfect spot in middle of Toscana. Just 4 km of small forest road from autostrada Siena-Firenze hidden in Toscana hills. If you count on everyday use of pool, be aware that only 4 apartments are near pool, and others are few minutes away.

If you wan't to spare some money on food, there is excelent market (Coop) in Poggibonsi just (4km away).

New Review Submitted for Casa Guia: Casa Guia 1 located in Bucine, Tuscany, Italy.

Rental Date: Saturday 22nd of August 2009.
Renter Rating: 4/5.
Review Details:
We really liked our genuine Tuscan villa and the property is quite spectacular,situated on a vineyard. Our villa was very spacious with two bedrooms , lots of living space, nicely furnished and with up-dated bathrooms. Biggest negative is the lack of air-condtioning . It was very hot during our stay and fans provided were not able to cool the villa enough for comfortable sleeping. Unfortunately, the windows do not have screens so opening them let the bugs invade.
We enjoyed the beautiful pool and even played bocci.
Patrick, the property manager is terrific - very knowledgeable about the area.
The location of the villa is ideal for day trips to all the wonderful hill towns in Tuscany and yet close enough to Florence and Siena.

New Review Submitted for San Romolo: San Romolo 1 located in Bagno A Ripoli, Tuscany, Italy.

Rental Date: Saturday 22nd of August 2009.
Renter Rating: 5/5.
Review Details:
The appartement was great. Very clean and the owners are very helpfull and nice people. Our stay was very comfortable and we could visit Florence and Siena very good. From the appartement we could see Florence and it's great buildings. The swimmingpool was very clean and a great place to relax and cool ourselves. This is definately not the last time we'll be there and well worth the 1300+ km trip, even for a week. We completely enjoyed our stay and the quiteness around the appartement!
