Villa Teresa
We had a wonderful stay at Villa Teresa. We are used to high end and what I can say is this is not the Ritz, but in some ways it is very close. Francesca was almost like your own personal concierge - arranged tours, drivers, stocked the house, incredibly responsive and not at all what you would expect from a VRBO. If this is your first time in Tuscany and you want to do it right - stay here. House was charming, pool as advertised and the bbq was fun. Only issue for an American is you won't get the AC as cold as you like, but that's literally it. The outside dining is a must, so much fun. We will be coming back again for sure.

August 2023 stay with family and friends
The villa is in a beautiful setting in a rural section of Eastern Tuscany. Bedrooms and bath’s configuration perfect for our group of 15. We did not use all the beds on the second floor but occupied all bedrooms. As typical, the kitchen is small if you want to cook for a large group but doable. The original kitchen and service entrance is below the ground level and accessed daily by the owners who arrive through a door inside the house. If this creeps you out get over it, the owners are lovely people protecting their property. We had excellent daily housekeeping because we cooked most nights (5/7) plus breakfast and snacks. The owners can arrange for prepared meals if desired but we did not use this service. The pool and grounds are well kept and inviting. The lounge seats and outdoor tables and chairs are substantial and well kept. We spent a lot of time outdoors and used the multiple grills. The local town of Cavriglia is a ten minute walk away and has 3 restaurants. There is a very useful COOP grocery store with most supplies for a quick shop, anything more substantial will require a trip to the enormous COOP in Montevarchi 7 miles away. The neighbors are farmers and have dogs that live outside and occasionally bark at night. I complained one night to the owners about one persistent yapper and I believe a discussion ensued since we were not bothered again. I highly recommend this villa. My family and friends would all return.

Bella Toscana
Our family of 15 people just spent a glorious week at Villa Teresa. Everything was beyond perfect. From the ease of finding the villa to the impeccable conditions of both the villa and the property, the friendliness and knowledgeable hosts, to the divine meals we had every night. Francesca was responsive to each and every request and always with a smile. You will not be disappointed spending your vacation at Villa Teresa. It’s ideally located to visit all the top sites, although it will be very difficult for you to leave the property. The villa is immaculately maintained and extremely spacious. More than enough room for all 15 of us (all adults) to enjoy our time together. I highly recommend Villa Teresa as anyone’s choice for the region.

Italian Villa
The facilities are amazing. This is a beautiful LARGE villa with great amenities. The location is perfect for venturing out into the Tuscany countryside. Its about an hour away from Florence by train and an hour from Siena by car. The drive to San Gimignano is spectacular. Plan on getting back from San Gimignano before nightfall because the road is very winding. Francesca, our host, was very helpful and usually would respond quickly with answers to our questions. We did have some communications problems during the planning stages of our trip but all issues were resolved in plenty of time. Francesca was a good resource to help us plan wine tours, sightseeing, and find good restaurants. It would be helpful, however, if there was a guide book that had all this information already available. It would also be helpful if the guidebook contained tips on using the appliances available in the villa.

Wonderful Stay
Loved our time at Villa Teresa. Beautiful house and gardens, wonderful pool. Plenty of dining seating, garden seating and lounge chairs by the pool. Very accommodating and warm host and incredible olive oil they produce. Should have had more dinners prepared by our hosts as the food was delicious (and no prep/cleanup). Hope to find our way back again soon!

Cooking services
Villa Teresa offer optional cooking services for its guests. I use our products when possible and row materials for the most part coming from neighbouring areas. I personally attend preparation that is usually done in a second staff kitchen in the basement, without using the guest’s kitchen. Meals are serviced under the gazebo or in the dining room.
