Beautiful Villa in the Tuscan Countryside
Beautiful home both inside and out. Beautiful views. Relaxing country estate. Perfect for family gatherings. Kitchen very well appointed. The owner and guardian of the villa are terrific - very responsive and readily available. They are eager to ensure a pleasant stay. The villa is on a limited access road which allows you to feel fully immersed in the Italian countryside. This villa is even more than as advertised and we had a wonderful stay,

Exceptionnel
Nous avons passé un merveilleux séjour chez Rita. Nous y avons séjourné à 12 (groupe d’amis) et y étions très à l’aise car le bien est vraiment très spacieux. Nous avons été accueillis par Rita et son époux, ce sont personnes charmantes. La maison est beaucoup mieux en vrai que sur photos. La situation de la maison est parfaite, à 15km du centre de Florence, dans un havre de calme et de verdure, à l’abri de toutes nuisances, tout en étant proches de tout (commerces, restaurant, autoroute A1, …) Rita est très réactive et résous les petits problèmes très rapidement. Je recommande vivement ce très beau logement !!!

Spectacular!
What a memorable week we had in this house! We’ve never before been in an historic house with a chapel – fascinating! We were 7 adults (grandparents, siblings and spouses) and six grandchildren (ages 6-11). We easily survived the heat wave by making good use of the generous pool and the large cool house. Side trips to Florence (early in the morning!), Pisa and even to the beach were no problem. Easy contact with Marisol for any questions. A successful family vacation!

Enjoyed our stay
Plenty of room and beds to comfortably sleep out group of 13. Had some issues w AC the first night but other than that the property was great for us. Pool is very nice. Had the chef cook for us one night and that was great eating out on the back deck. Views were great and access to Florence and wine regions was great. Temps were lovely in late May, mid 70s

Perfect for our large family.
We brought our children and their children for a once in a lifetime trip together to Italy. We began planning our trip Christmas 2018 to take place summer 2020. Well no one traveled anywhere that year. But it happened this year, 2022! We were more than pleased with Rita and Bernard's villa. Location was perfect for all the things we wanted to see in Tuscany! There was lots of space for everyone , kitchen was well equipped, we ate our meals together at the large table outside, and had fun in the large pool after a hot day sightseeing. Food shopping was easy to find. If you are looking for a lovely villa to accommodate a large group, this is it!

Merveilleuse villa aux portes de Florence
La villa est authentique et a du charme. Elle est grande et spacieuse en intérieur et en extérieur. Il y a peu de voisinage. La vue est splendide. La proximité avec Florence et avec la région du Chianti est très appréciable. Nous y avons passé de très bonnes vacances en famille.

Breve soggiorno invernale ad Impruneta
Abbiamo soggiornato qui durante il periodo di capodanno, la casa è molto grande e ben disposta, eravamo un gruppo di 14 persone e ci siamo trovati davvero molto bene. La casa è provvista di tutto il necessario, stoviglie, lenzuola, detersivi, posate ecc, l’unico tasto dolente riguarda la pulizia che purtroppo non era sufficiente. Nonostante ciò, ci siamo trovati davvero molto bene e abbiamo potuto visitare alcune città vicine. Consigliamo a tutti questa sistemazione, soprattutto per la gentilezza e disponibilità della signora Rita che ha saputo darci tante informazioni.

Beautiful location in Tuscany
This house is in the middle of Tuscany surrounded by olive groves and has a fantastic pool area. The house is large and has a perfect terrace area for enjoying meals and relaxing. We had some issues calling for a taxi but then were told we should download 'AppTaxi' and, once we did that, it was easy. Marisol, the manager, was great and very responsive to whatever we needed. She prepared a dinner for us one night that was fantastic.

Beautiful old house in the countryside of Firenze
Great house for cheap holiday for 20 people but the house was not clean enough, too furnished of personal belongings, there is a huge problem of mosquitoes. But the overall stay was wonderful, we could be 20 people without feeling one on the other.

Charming house with everything you need to enjoy the italian 'far niente'
House is perfectly located, in the heart of Tuscany countryside, but at the same time close to florence to visit the city. It is very well equipped to enjoy your vacations if you are a group or a family. Pool and the view make the most of it! :)

Viva La Villa
We had a wonderful week in this beautiful Villa with stunning views, the perfect location for Florence and in our case a wedding at Villa Corsini a short drive away. Rita organised everything wonderfully well, we had provisions on arrival (pre booked) and a delightful Lasagne cooked by the very helpful housekeeper who also later in our stay doubled up as chauffeur ferrying us all home safely from the wedding in the early hours. We had an amazing time and would wholeheartedly recommend this Villa

Great Place with Privacy near Firenze
We loved the place. A little difficult to find (initially). This gave us privacy. It was also close enough to Firenze to be parked and in town in less than a half an hour. Air conditioned bedrooms allowed sleeping even when it was over 80F. We spent a week and would have loved to spend a longer time. The wonderful pool was a welcome on days that were over 90. High ceilings in the living room with lots of space made it very comfortable. Was very clean and well maintained. I recommend this great place to families a group of good friends . Loved it.

Charming and relaxing
We travelled with the extended family of 14 and had a lovely time. The house was well equipped, the pool was super and the sunset was beautiful every evening. The caretakers, Marisol and her husband, was very helpful and service minded and conveniently situated next door. The location is good for travellers with a car as it is a good starting point for travelling the countryside in Tuscany. Would highly recommend staying in the villa! Just a small comment: a layout of the bedrooms should be included in the pictures/illustrations as the description is slightly misleading. The guesthouse had only possibility of 3 beds, not 4 as was stated in the description.

Tuscan flair!
2 weeks in Italy with 14 family members (4 teenagers): one week based in this well loved and cared for Tuscan villa with fabulous views. It felt like home with beautiful plants, international decor and art work, music and stereo on which we loved to play classical music in the back ground as we ate appetizers out on the loggia. Our favorite was the loggia, where we hung out eating breakfast, appetizers and dinner even if it was rainy. Rita, the owner was very responsive and has a super sweet caretaker who also helped us tremendously... including with translating our preferences to a hired chef for our evening meals. The chef was also flexible and incredibly talented (including making our leftovers into other delicious meals). Having her allowed us more family relaxation time as she prepared aromatic Tuscan dinners. And it was more economical than going out to dinner. Our only challenge: Bring a set of ear plugs in case the neighborhood dog is up early but don't let this be a deterrence. The road to the villa is a challenge if you use the GPS instead of Rita's instructions... especially if you don't have a small car. We found the back way (the road that leads to Impruneta) as being an easier way to get to the villa from Florence (but much easier to miss the first time) and is also more picturesque. We loved the convenience to Florence and we would also have been content had we had just stayed at the villa the whole time! Thank you for a the highlight of our trip Rita.

Wonderful stay
We visited the villa in the end of August with a group of eight friends. A very hot period, fortunately the pool provided a lot of coolness. The rooms were cool as well thanks to the A/C in every room. With Florence, Impruneta and Galluzzo right around the corner groceries and sightseeing were easy to arrange (renting a car mandatory, we did rent one car for groceries and visited Florence with the car and one taxi). But we did not visit Florence as much as we planned, as the villa provided us almost everything we needed to have a wonderful holiday. The guardian, Marisol, was very kind and checked up on us every once in a while if we needed something. Besides that, we had nice contact with the owner, Rita, who provided us with a lot of information about both the villa and the neighborhood . I would definitely recommend this villa to everyone, this kind of villa in this kind of authentic tuscan environment provides you a wonderful stay for your holidays.

Wonderful stay in Firenze
We were 3 families, in total 12 persons (6 adults, 6 children) from Norway, who were renting the villa for two weeks, July 2015. All renting arrangements and contractual issues were smoothly setup by owner. Upon arrival we were well taken care of by the guardian living next door. Easy to contact in case questions popped up when we were stating there. During our stay we had an excellent weather, inviting to sunbathing and pool activity, but also various trips to nearby cities and of course beautiful Florence only a 15 minutes drive from the location. As there are some distance (approx. 2 km) to nearest main road, I would recommend people who rent the villa to have access to car. For people who like would like to walk to the main road, bus is a good alternative for traveling to Florence. We will for sure recommend others to rent the villa.

Wonderful Villa
We rented this villa for a week in July 2014, for four adults and 2 children. The villa is great, and just as the pictures described. The kids loved the pool and the outside terrace with the table was great for dinners and nighttime cocktails watching the sun set over the hills. The location was perfect - 10 km from Florence and closer to Imprunetta, which was a nice little town with good restaurants. The house is very large, as we had a spare bedroom we did not use as well as the guesthouse by the pool. The owner was very friendly and helpful, as well as the local housekeeper. We would definitley recommend this villa. Thanks - Jon, Chicago, USA

A perfect place to spend a familyholiday
We loved the big house with all its facilities, the very spacious rooms, the AC, the efficient weekly care by the housekeeper, the covered terrace and the wonderful swimmingpool.Also the location so near Florence and other places of interest was a great asset to the house.Perhaps the indications to get to the location could have been more exact. A recommandable place to stay!

Amazing stay near Firenze
My friends and I rented this property for one week and we had a fantastic time. The house is not only beautiful and absolutely charming but it is also big, spacious, and very functional with many bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, a wifi connection, a large patio with a big dining table etc... The highlight is the perfect swimming pool and of course, the amazing view ! The house is located in the heights of Florence, in the middle of olive trees fields, which makes it an ideal location. Very quiet and peaceful environment but very close to Florence at the same time. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a villa in the area.

A beautyful, easy to live in and calm property.
The description was acurate, the property clean, and well maintained. We have already recommanded it to several friends and relatives. We had a very happy stay at l'Oleandro last Easter, and we intend to rent it again, with an other part of our numerous family. The property is ideally situated, very near to Firenze, which makes goings to and fro Firenze very easy. It is also and island of peace , right in the midle of olive trees, with a lovely view onto the Tuscany hillls. The house itself elegantly decorated confortable but not too luxurious. We were there with seven of our grand children, whom we were not forced to scold perpetually with "Don't do this or that". They also enjoyed playing and running in the garden after their cultural visits within Firenze,Pisa and Sienna. A very good property to rent, and really ideal for family holidays.

The perfect place for a Tuscan holiday!
Five traveling friends took this wonderful Villa for a week during the second half of September. The Villa is a perfect get-away spot. The photos do not do justice to the property and the surrounding area. Beautiful views of Olive groves, quaint old homes and distant countryside. Peaceful and quiet. Florence is a short 20 minute drive away while the small town of Impruneta offers essential shopping, small town charm and fine eating. Chianti vineyards are a scenic ride away. The property owner is a pleasure to do business with. In fact, we had taken another of his properties, a wonderful apartment in Paris, last year. The Villa is managed by a local woman and the entire transaction went very smoothly.

Why they chose this property

Because one can enjoy both Florence life and the countryside which is wonderful in this area of Italy. It is ideal for short visits to surrounding areas such as Siena, San Gemignano, Certaldo, but also to go to the seaside in less than an hour, Rome or Venice in two hours etc etc
There is a golf course nearby, wine trips in Chianti region,
tennis courts hunting etc etc
There is also a consecrated Catholic Chapel which can be used on special demand for Catholic functions.

What makes this property unique

Its proximity to Florence, the space of a countryhouse.
Its accessibility, next to the major communication arteries (Highway
Rome Venice, Genova, Siena)
We fell in love with our home, because it is settled in a tiny picturesque village,it has beautifull views from the living room, or the arched entryway. It has a porch-veranda which is an outside living room where we spend most of the days in summer, which continue with an open terrace overlooking the garden and the pool.
