Review for stay from 10 September 2022 to 24 September 2022

Positiv: Lage und Pool Top. Florenz , Siena , Chiantigegend ist nicht weit entfernt, auch das Meer nicht. Gutes Restaurant neben an,10 Minuten gemütlicher Spaziergang. Negativ: Lärmige Strasse hinter dem Haus , keine Kaffeemaschine (mussten eine kaufen), Heruntergekommene Gartenmöbel ( Teilweise Schrott, Liegenstühle verloren die Räder) Keine Internetverbindung und WhatsApp. Preis zu hoch.

Wunderschönes und traumhaftes Haus mit sehr großem Pool. Es gibt eigentlich nichts zu bemängeln, außer ein paar störenden Details, die vom Vermieter leicht zu beheben wären: Gute Küchenausstattung aber viel zu wenig Besteck. (bspw. nur 4 Löffel und Gabeln). Das Ehebett war defekt und hing in der Mitte durch, habe es vor Ort provisorisch repariert. Das Kinderdoppelstockbett ist in allereinfachster Ausführung. Ich habe zumindest die Leiter angebunden, weil diese ohne Befestigung mehrfach beim benutzen weggerutscht war. Holzliegen und Sessel waren schon sehr klapprig und fielen manchesmal auseinander. Die angesprochenen Mängel sind eigentlich völlig unnötig und wären leicht zu beheben und in dieser Preisklasse auch zu erwarten. Ansonsten wunderschön, wir haben einen sehr schönen und erholsamen Urlaub verbracht!

Review for stay from 20 July 2019 to 03 August 2019

Die Anlage ist echt Top, richtig gross und sehr gepflegt. Für Familien, welche ihren Urlaub in ruhiger Lage geniessen möchten ist es optimal. Das Ferienhaus ist relativ abseits vom Zentrum, aber nach kurzer Fahrzeit auch kein echtes Problem. Die Hausbesitzer sind zuvorkommend und immer erreichbar, kümmern sich auch permanent.

Jolie petite maison bien équipée et avec tout le confort nécessaire. La climatisation est un vrai plus pour les nuits très chaudes de la région. Le cadre est magnifique et nous avons beaucoup profité des joies de la piscine et du très grand terrain.

Review for stay from 26 May 2018 to 02 June 2018

Wir fanden das Haus zuerst überteuert, da es nicht sehr gross ist und von den Fotos her auch wirklich nichts besonderes. Für uns war es mehr eine „Notfalllösung“, die sich dann als das Beste herausgestellt hat, was uns passieren konnte. Die Besitzer waren zauberhaft und der Garten sehr schön. Die Gegend wunderbar und alle uns wichtigen Städte bestens zu erreichen. Vielen Dank für alles! Ein Tipp an die Besitzer: lasst neue Fotos machen!

From the moment we arrived, we felt good. Any queries we had prior to arriving were dealt with in a timely and professional manner. Upon arriving we were greeted by the owner and made to feel so welcome. We were close to all amenities, including supermarkets, great tavernas. We would recommend it.
