Super panoramic villa for 8 guests walking to town, private pool, AirCond, Wifi Reviews

We absolutely loved the location and the villa! One of the best places we have ever stayed.

Our stay at Casa Tosca was wonderful. Monica gave us a warm welcome and we settled into this beautiful villa quickly before setting out for daily road trips in and around the region. The pool was refreshing and the house a comfortable place to gather together for family dinners, playing cards and watching g the sunset over the Tuscan hills.

This home was perfect for my family of 4. The views of the Tuscan countryside were amazing. Monica is a very lovely host who is very organized and knowledgeable. She leaves a book of places to see while in Montaione. She provided us with a bowl of fresh fruit, olive oil (from her farm, which my son says was the best olive oil), wine and some other items. The pool is beautiful, very clean, and well maintained. I would definitely stay here again.

Spotlessly clean and beautifully appointed luxury villa set in breathtaking countryside. Monica was a very kind and gracious hostess and we greatly welcomed the generous welcome pack of provisions. The nearby village was also very nice with several good restaurants and a good supermarket. If you want top quality accommodation, with your own pool and set amidst the best of Tuscan scenery - this is the place to book.

The villa enjoys stunning views and the pool area is fantastic. The bedrooms are all a good size and the aircon is excellent.there is everything you need in the villa and the kitchen is fully equipped. The local supermarket is a short drive and stocks all you could wish for. The surrounding area is so beautiful with lots of places to visit. The only negative is the approach to the villa from the main road. The approach is about half a mile long but it is very steep and bumpy and meant that we were not able to walk into the town in the evening. Overall an excellent holiday and the owners were very friendly.

Great hospitality. The villa had everything we could have needed, and more. Quiet location but within easy driving distance of San Gimignano, Siena, Volterra. Highly recommended.

Lovely villa, pool and views over the hills. Spacious and well equipped for communal eating. The host was very friendly and helpful. Worth the tricky super steep access road (nervous drivers beware!).

Casa Tosca is on perhaps the most beautiful piece of land in all of Tuscany. We have been lucky enough to visit some very special places in our lives but waking up to the sun rising over the Tuscan landscape with the loveliest pool in the foreground makes you feel like royalty. The property is very well attended to, with a perfectly cut lawn, colorful flowers, and hedges that provide a good amount of privacy, despite being quite close to a neighboring old Tuscan home. That home is also owned by Casa Tosca’s owner, but houses a year-long tenant who we saw very little of, yet enough to feel like we were staying in real Italy. The villa itself is spotless, comfortable and very well-equipped. Given the superb weather, we spent the majority of our time outside when we were there. Inside, the bedrooms and bathrooms are great. The kitchen is small but very well stocked and upon arrival, Monica provided all sorts of wonderful treats (wine, cookies, fruit, oil and herbs, coffee, etc.) free of charge. (She was also incredibly attentive throughout our stay, no matter the subject!) And the kitchen was plenty big enough for our family of four to enjoy a cooking class - we made tiramisu, lamb and fresh pasta! Had we spent more time inside, a more comfortable living space would have been nice, but it was unnecessary for our family. The hill to the town is long and steep - got the kids to do it once, carrying groceries and all! I did it often - great exercise. The town of Montaione makes it all worth it. Almost a caricature of itself - a mini Sienna, complete with delicious restaurants, gelatti places, a supermarket (co-op) with a wonderful deli and bakery and great selection of fresh produce. Adorable shops line the cobblestone streets and the old Italian men enjoy hanging out together in jovial groups, consistent with the cliche. The villa is an hour from Sienna (by car), Lucca (by car) and Florence (car to train.) We also visited San Gimignano for dinner on our way back from a day trip to Sienna. A must! Lastly, the villa guide has been incredibly thoughtfully put together and was an enormous help in pre-planning our itinerary as well as for reference during our stay. Casa Tosca is a FABULOUS place! With love from your Brooklyn, New York friends.

We had two weeks very nice stay at this property. Thanks to Monica and Selena for your efforts to make this a nice holliday!

We did a lot of research before our trip because we had a very specific place in mind. We knew we wanted a place in the country, four bedrooms, and within walking distance to the local town. Finding a property that would fit these requirements was not easy. Thankfully, Casa Tosca appeared to be exactly what we were pursuing. We were a group of four women (in our 50s and 60s) who were seeking a vacation that would allow us to take day trips to other towns, just relax when we wanted to relax, and walk to/from town. A couple of specifics relative to our trip: We flew into Rome and took the train to Castelfiorentino, a town near Montaione. From there, we took a cab to the house. Throughout our stay, we walked to/from town (Montaione). Note: the walk is only .5 miles but it is very steep. While visitors should be aware of this, it should not prohibit you from making the journey. Wildflowers and breathtaking views greet you along the way and they should not be missed. We took our time, as we weren’t all in the best of shape, stopping to rest and drink in the views, frequently. For our day trips, we took a cab from the house to Castelfiorentino where we would travel by train to our destination. (We chose not to rent a car.) To say our expectations were met would be a gross understatement. Everything about our stay was greater than we could ever have hoped. This was the first international trip I had ever planned and Serena and Monica were the most patient and helpful people. Upon arrival, Monica greeted us. She was always ready to offer suggestions on where to eat, etc. and we were never disappointed. The house had everything we needed (we prepared a lot of meals in the well-appointed kitchen) and was very clean. After we settled in, Monica generously drove us to the CO-OP grocery store and helped with the language (we did not speak Italian very well). Montaione has many good restaurants and shops. The locals are very friendly and most speak English. It has been almost two weeks since we had to come home to the States and I miss the views, smells, beauty, and Monica, still today. I hope to return to Casa Tosca, one day. Until then, I have beautiful memories. Thank you, Monica and Serena, for making our dreams come true.
