En todo momento Massimo estaba preocupado en que tuviera todo lo que necesitara.

Torre delle Rose is a true Airbnb gem – I think it was our best Airbnb experience so far. It exceeded our expectations on every level. Our vacations in Tuscany were perfect, in a big part thanks to our decision to stay at Torre delle Rose. First, the apartment. It's actually bigger than the photographs suggest – it has over 70 sq. meters (750 sq. feet), and the celings in the living room are very high (it seemed like 4 m or 12 ft). Even when it gets really hot outside, the apartment keeps being pleasantly cool. The interior is very tastefully decorated, and the furniture is mostly antiques (which seem to be restored – everything is fully functional). There's a well equiped kitchen, board games, a picnic set, umbrellas, a broad selection of books in English (starting with Umberto Eco, going through Harry Potter, and ending in Dan Brown – so almost everybody should find something to their taste). There's even a small collection of movies that happen to take place in Tuscany! It really seems that Massimo and his family really thought of *everything*. Oh, and the wi-fi is good quality. Second, the location. The farm and house are gorgeous, and the views would fit a reneissance painting. In the night, there's lots of fireflies... It's just surreally beautiful. In Rosano (the closest hamlet) there's a very nice trattoria and store. Florence is around 30 minutes of driving away, depending on the traffic. If you drive East, you can go to the Foresti Casentinesi National Park. Third, the hosts. Massimo and his family were charming and very helpful. We learned quite a lot about the farm's surroundings. All in all, I wish we could have stayed longer – one week was just not enough.

We did not know exactly what to expect when we followed our host down a country lane after getting lost on our way to the tower. What we found when we arrived was beyond our imagination. A warm welcome, an absolutely gorgeous view, and a beautiful home awaited us there. Massimo was very kind and helpful, but not at all hovering; we were so grateful for his extensive local knowledge. The castle (it really is a little castle) is beautifully appointed and comfortable, and its proximity to Florence and her sights cannot be beat at less than a half an hour into town. If you're planning a trip to the area, I can't recommend a stay with this lovely family highly enough!

This was a relaxing part of Italy. Spacious, beautiful and clean with beautiful vistas form the patio. Massimo was very friendly and accommodating.

Our 4 nights with Massimo and his family at their gorgeous house was an amazing experience. There is so much more to the Montioni property than just a beautiful house and view. The history and culture we were exposed to was simply amazing. Massimo farms lemons, limes, olives for his olive oil, cherries, and very small production of Vin Santo (Italian version of dessert wine). My fiancé and I did the cooking school with Martina, Massimo's wife, and she treated us like family. We had dinner with them after cooking, and hours later we were caught with great conversation learning about our different cultures, they treated us very well. The apartment was very spacious and and clean. Being a house in the mountains, the wifi wasn't as fast as we're used to in the states, the apt stays cool throughout the day and night, and the temperatures drop at night. The drive up to the house is a bit bumpy and steep, so make sure you know what you're doing when driving through the mountains (Massimo picked us up at a local bar at the bottom of the mountain to show us the way). Renting a car is a must, only about 25 minutes outside Florence. Totally worth staying here, such a great Tuscan experience with a wonderful family!!!

Massimo was very helpful in sending directions to the house. We got lost once or twice but managed to arrive on time. The space was absolutely fantastic. Views over the valley were stunning. The house itself was amazing. We toured around the area and did day trips to Florence. The train at Pontessieve was very easy to access and parking was free. We had a cooking class with Massimo's wife, Martina, and it was very good. She was very patient with us our first time making pasta. We then shared our preparations with our hosts. It was a lovely meal with a lovely family. We did not get to see them when we left as Massimo was working the farm and Martina had gone to work. We left them a note and received the nicest email about our stay. We will definitely return and spend more time touring the farm and surrounding area. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

Wonderfull and unique experience, the facilities are great but Massimo and Martina are even better! Great people.

Boli sme milo privitani majitelom a oboznameni so vsetkym,mily pristup ochota a krasne prostredie velmi odporucame.

Our stay was wonderful! Aurora was flexible and helpful which we really appreciated. She even gave us her family wine and olive oil!! I can't say enough about how beautiful the area and the property is, even during the winter. We highly recommend this place!

This is a really great place with magnificent view of Florence and wonderful hosts. Aurora always ready to help. Through to her advice and help our trip has become even better. Thank you so much. It was a great vacation for us. Thank you for your hospitality, for your tips and your help.

Gorgeous views over Florence amazing tranquil surrounds this small castle is relaxing and peaceful. Close enough to Florence for day trips.

Aurora and Stefania were very hospitality, the apartment was so nice, comfortable and the view is absolutely amazing. If any body want to go Toscana , must go to this place. Kind people, nice place and wonderful wine and food :) Me and my wife would like to go back soon.

Corrispondente all'annuncio. Aurora molto presente ma discreta e ha risolto prontamente le mie richieste. Io sono andato nella stagione invernale, ma immagino che questa location deve essere molto bella sopratutto nel periodo estivo.

From the moment I met aurora, I knew that I would have a wonderful week staying st the Casale Fontibucci. Aurora was very professional, yet hospitable. When we had questions and concerns, she was prompt in giving an answer and helping us with anything we needed. The apartment itself is situated in the most beautiful part of the Country I have ever seen, which prompted walks at all hours of the day during our stay there. To get to Florence, it was an hour bus ride with a stop not too far from Aurora' s place. Even though my husband and I didn't mind the hour commute, Aurora offered to give us a ride into town whenever she was on her way already. The apartment was equipped with everything a tenant would ever need, including clean linens and towels, trash cans with liners, an available coffee pot with filters, and even a welcome basket made with homemade wines and olive oil. I will never forget Aurora and her kindness, as well as the little piece of paradise we were able to stay in for a week.

Magnifique vue sur Florence! Le logement est très propre et fonctionnelle (cafetière, micro-onde ...). Il est un peu loin du centre de Florence et mieux vaut avoir une bonne voiture, car les routes sont cabossées. Nous sommes resté 1 mois la ba en hiver ! Je ne conseil pas ce logement en hiver, nous avons payés environ 200 euros (chauffage + électricité + gaz) ; nous étions obnubilé par le prix. Par contre je le conseil en été , il est très agréable à vivre et doit être très frais l'été.

Abbiamo deciso di trascorrere un weekend romantico in Toscana e devo dire che l’appartamento che abbiamo scelto è stato davvero perfetto ed ha completamente soddisfatto le nostre aspettative ed esigenze. Gli arredi sono molto curati, i letti comodi e la vista sulle colline e sui campi della proprietà è davvero meravigliosa! Siamo stati accolti con grande ospitalità e ci siamo davvero goduti la campagna, l’aria pulita e la vicinanza con Firenze e dintorni. Lo consiglio vivamente a tutti coloro che vogliono passare una bella vacanza in Toscana!

It was a great pleasure to stay at Silvia’s place. The view over Florence from between olive trees is just marvelous. We parked our car at Piazzale Michelangelo (Michelangelo Square) for free in the morning and went into the center of the beautiful birthplace of the Renaissance. Silvia’s place is very inspiring and for people who like to read and cook at night and experience great culture in daytime an absolute great domicile to be. Hopefully we will meet again someday.

We visited Silvia's amazing house mid June 2014 and had an great time. The house was amazing and in such a beautiful area of Florence. Only a 20 drive from the centre, it was the perfect location offering the beautiful scenic landscape of Italy with the relaxed city of Florence. Silvia and her husband were great hosts, offering advice on the local area and for the rest of our trip. The house was a great size and had the facilities to cook in the lovely rustic kitchen. We only stayed for 3 nights but would have gladly stayed longer.

Silvia's apartment is lovely and spacious. Nestled up in the hills the views across the valley and down to Florence are amazing, we enjoyed a few gorgeous sunsets from both the terrace and the hot tub. Very convenient and relaxing place to stay when visiting Florence. Only wish we could have stayed longer!

Le mari de Silvia m'a bien accueilli malgré nos langues différentes. Il m'a montré entièrement les extérieurs et l'intérieur. La vue sur Florence est très belle, même depuis le jacuzzi. Les bouteilles d'eau fraîche et de vin pétillant d'Italie étaient très agréables après mon voyage de 6 heures. J'ai aussi bien apprécié le pot de confiture d'abricot qu'il m'a offert lors de mon séjour. Silvia est venue à ma rencontre une fois libérée de ses obligations. Et leur chienne momoko était bien gentille. Mon séjour dans leur logement fut bien reposant, nuit fenêtre ouverte rafraichissante très calme. Florence est assez proche pour la visiter et y faire un petit tour, mais assez loin pour ne pas en subir les nuisances. Le jacuzzi est très délassant et rafraichissant dans un charmant jardin d'oliviers. Le voisinage peu nombreux est très agréable. Je conserverai un autre très bon souvenir de Florence.

We were looking for a place near our friend's place in Villamagna so Silvia's place was a perfect location. Everything in the house was in order & clean. Silvia & her husband were a great host, informative, helpful & friendly. Silvia responds to our e-mail right away too. We had a great time staying at her place - grazie !

Silvia and Daizo were great hosts. We have had all we need and they recommended us the most beautiful touristic points inclusive indider tips (where to park,buy regional food...). From the flat there is a impressive view to Firenze but the way to the flat is very adventures with a big car like a van ;) An other highlight was the jacuzzi. Only a few steps in the garden and a the same beautiful view to Firenze.

This place is amazing!!! Perfect location, incredible view, not too far from Florence. My boyfriend and I spent our first two days exploring the hills of Tuscany in our rental car and on the third day we did a food and wine tour in Florence. We spent our evenings drinking wine, enjoying the cozy home, the perfect view, and also the Jacuzzi! Perfect for a romantic vacation. Silvia was an amazing host. She made us feel at home and was very kind and accommodating. 5 stars for this perfect Airbnb!

We absolutely loved Silvia's place. Remote but with lovely neighbors, amazing view overlooking Florence in the jacuzzi. Great big kitchen, clean bathroom with a big mirror, and a spacious bed/living room. Definitely want to go back!

Giovanni is very friendly and welcome. He provided us with a baby bed and chair for our 6 months old baby, which was very helpful. The flat is quite spacious (yet rather dark) and the farmhouse charming, and well located to benefit both from the proximity of Florence and nature. Some additionnal cooking utensils and dishes would be nice. A nice week altogether!

Giovanni and the Villa were perfect! The villa is fully equipped ,comfortable,and the location is like being in heaven !!!! Giovanni was very helpful in anything we needed. Would recommend anyone to go and enjoy the villa and wonderful toscsny.

Giovanni is a helpful host, the sorroundings are beautiful, and it is easy to get to Florence from the house. My son is 185cm tall, for him the bed was not comfortable, it was too short.

A nice set of apartments in the countryside with nice views. We had little time to sit outside but in general a very comfortable and accessible location. The short trip to Sieci and subsequent 20 mins train journey are an excellent way to visit Florence as it gets you to the center without having the headache of needing to find a parking place (other then in the station, where parking is free).

Podere Vignola is a great place in a very beautiful landscape, expecially the garden with the pool, table tennis table and a lot of different plants! Giovanni is a very nice and engaged person. He helped us with our garbage at our first and last day, because we went by train and didn`t rent a car. At the other days for us it was no problem to reach Florence by train. "Giardino" is a nice and comfortable flat. Unfortunately the weather was not so nice. Without enough sun and light and at night, the flat ist a little bit dark.

We had the pleasure of staying at the farmhouse for Thanksgiving, 4 adults and 2 teens. There was more than enough space for everyone, the apartment was very clean and the hosts were exceptionally nice and helpful during our stay. We will definitely stay here again if we visit Florence.

I stayed with my family in Pontassieve, Tuscany. This place is quite scenic and is located next to the wine yard. Apartment was spacious and had all the amenities required for the family. My wife and children thoroughly enjoyed their stay. Giovanni picked up from Piazza Aldo Moro which is 5 minutes from the farm house. Giovanni guided us to the nearby restaurant and super market. He also helped us to plan the trip to Pisa and Florence. I would strongly recommend this place to others and is great value for the money spent.

Un appartamento immerso nella natura bellissimo. Abbiamo alloggiato per due notti, abbiamo trovato l'appartamento pulito e siamo stati benissimo. Giovanni è molto disponibile con gli ospiti. Consiglierei questo alloggio a tutti!

The house was very comfortable, cozy, spacious and all utilities were almost duly covered. The house it is placed on a very favoured spot, because it has the typical Tuscan peace and landscape, but it is just 15 minute drive to center of Florence. We can't wait to return, I would definitely recommend it!!

Four friends and I had a wonderful stay at this Castle airbnb! Truly beautiful views and outstanding hospitality from the hosts, Stephania and her family. It is very remote from Florence and you would need to rent a car to get there. The roads are also very narrow for a two car road so you would need to be cautious. Stephania was a great host and went out of her way to make is feel comfortable in her home. I highly recommend this airbnb, it was one of the best stays I have had with at an airbnb.

What a fantastic host! The apartment is gorgeous. The neighborhood is the perfect distance from florence (when you have a car). You're close (20min) but have nature and the rolling hills and the river in your backyard. It's the perfect retreat!

Annalisa is a fantastic host. The best we've experienced in a long while. She's incredibly hospitable. Available for questions. And very very professional. The apartment is the kind of apartment that feels like home (not like an ikea showroom). We're so grateful to have found this little slice of heaven for the last month and look forward to staying here again in the future.

Annalisa e Giovanni sono due persone deliziose, molto accoglienti e gentili e la loro casa, che è un vero amore, li rispecchia ampiamente. Appena ci entri ti viene da pensare che potrebbe essere anche la tua casa per sempre, tanto è fresca ed accogliente . E' un appartamento in una palazzina sulla riva del fiume Arno, dove puoi anche fare passeggiate ed ammirare il suo corso meraviglioso. L'appartamento è spazioso funzionale, ben arredato , dotato di tutti i confort e curato nei particolari. Le stanze sono tutte spaziose, il bagno è nuovo, il soggiorno e la cucina si affacciano su due bei terrazzi. Cosa assolutamente da non sottovalutare, è che Annalisa e Giovanni amano gli animali e sono pronti ad accogliere famiglie e persone che hanno con se degli amici pelosetti.

Annalisa and her sister Tiziana were perfect hosts. Everything was perfect. Located directly at the Arno river it is a good location for visiting Florence and the surrounding. Florenz is 15 minutes by car or train, so no need to stay in town. We found everything as described and the air conditioning was a big plus. Tiziana gave us a perfect introduction and we had a perfect week. Thanks so much.

Acceuil chaleureux, bonnes explication en francais et sympatique cadeau de bienvenue, tres agreable sejour, appartement conforme a nos espérances

Io e la mia compagna ci siamo trovati davvero molto bene sia come accoglienza da parte della bella Monica sia come appartamento che è pulito, curato e con una piacevolissima calda atmosfera; colazione ottima e indicazioni su come organizzare logisticamente la nostra permanenza davvero utili. Trattandosi di una casa immersa nella natura la notte è stata tranquillissima e potendo dormire con le finestre aperte è stato davvero magnifico. La casa si trova immersa in un paesaggio spettacolare dei famosi colli fio(SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) e la mattina dalla finestra c'è una vista incredibile sull'Arno che scorre proprio lì davanti. La posizione è ottima sia per visitare Firenze che per visitare le varie città circostanti che sono sempre ricche di storia e immerse in paesaggi da sogno. Monica ci ha consigliato un paio di mete nei dintorni che non avevamo in programma ma che siamo stati felicissimi di visitare. Peccato che i due giorni sono passati così velocemente, ma torneremo.

Great experience! Monica and her boyfriend are great hosts, always making sure that everything is alright, very available and super nice people. The appartment is great, cosy, comfortable and with an awesome view from the private garden on Tuscany's landscapes. I highly recommend to have a car if you stay more than two days. Without it's manageable but less practical. Globally, it was an awesome experience. I needed to relax and dont wanted to be directly in a city, so with this place I enjoyed both countryside and Firenze (and it's not that far from other great cities to visit). On a sidenote, it was my first experience on AirBnb and I think I could not have had a better one, thank you very much Monica!

Soggiornare nella casa di Monica, anche se per una sola notte, è stata un'esperienza incantevole; l'atmosfera è quella d'uno spartito di note colorate, dove nessuna è mai fuori tono. Tutta la casa è fantasiosa e fantastica, ma sospesa in un magico equilibrio tra realtà e sogno, non a caso forse, com'è nel suo nome: SoleLuna. Ha stile e carattere, e certo rifletterà la sua gentile padrona. Questa notte, per più d'un motivo, ci è rimasta nel cuore. Esperienza sicuramente da ripetere, magari anche per più di una notte sola ;-)

Alloggio giusto X visitare Firenze ottimo il giardino con barbecue casa caratteristica in sasso.

L'alloggio di Monica è curato e piacevole, sito poco fuori dalla città permette di godere del verde e della tranquillità della campagna. L'host è gentile, disponibile e premurosa, abbiamo trascorso un soggiorno molto piacevole e sicuramente ci ritorneremo in futuro!!!

Monica's apartment is a true piece of art. Beautifully furnished and clean. There is a small nice garden next to the flat entrance with a great view, where one can enjoy his meals. Apartment is located about 15 km from the center of Florence, so the best option is to have a car. We did not investigate the possibilities of public transport. Monica turned out to be a great host, leaving us a maps and guides of Florence, but best where different small treats in the fridge:). Thank you for possibility the stay at your place.

La casa di Monica è molto accogliente e funzionale dotata di tutti i confort. Monica è stata puntuale e ci ha (URL HIDDEN) allo spirito di airbnb facendoci sentire a nostro agio. il posto è immerso nella natura questo per noi è stato un valore aggiunto. giudizio complessivo ECCELLENTE

L'abitazione fa parte di una cascina immersa nelle colline toscane, è accogliente, colorata e luminosa. Tutta la casa è attrezzatissima per ogni evenienza, dalle stoviglie in cucina alla tv da guardare comodamente sul comodissimo divano, per una serata tranquilla in casa. C'è un piccolo giardino attrezzato con un barbecue, da poter utilizzare nei periodi più miti. Monica è stata gentilissima ed è un'ottima host, attenta e premurosa. Tempestiva e chiara nelle risposte alle nostre necessità. Il parcheggio è privato ed è situato proprio sotto l'abitazione, che è raggiungibile percorrendo due brevi rampe di scale. Durante la nostra permanenza è stato possibile osservare ( con nostra grande felicità) , nelle campagne visibili dal giardino, conigli e piccoli daini felicemente al pascolo. Consigliatissimo !
