This place is like a dream if you have ever wanted to stay in a villa in Tuscany! It is really picturesque, quiet and peaceful. A 10 minute walk to the bus stop and a 15 minute ride into the heart of Florence. Niko, the caretaker, is often available to take you to the bus stop by golf cart if you don't want to walk or the weather is bad. Everyone was very helpful and accommodating. The breakfast was lovely - fruit, yogurt, pastries, coffee, tea. There were also nice pastry treats in our room when we arrived. Stefano also has a restaurant (il santo bevitore) which is possibly the best meal I've ever had! The ambiance is wonderful, the food is delicious, the service is outstanding. I will definitely stay here again on my next trip to Florence.
