What a beautiful location. The Tuscan Sun Villa was all that we hoped and more. Our Taxi driver had some difficulty finding it because of its rural location but Alex was very helpful getting us set up and oriented. The location is so amazing. It was about a 45 minute walk to city center. It was a nice, quiet retreat to come back to after a full day of site seeing and chaotic tourism. Recommendations...Familiarize yourself with Florence's public transportation before you go if you don't plan to have a vehicle. Eat at the Trattoria Omero and book reservations through trip advisor for a discount. Alex was a gracious, kind and helpful host. Will definitely be recommending the Tuscan Sun Villa to friends and family.
