Gorgeous Villa, Gracious Host
This beautiful, historic villa was the perfect place to celebrate our ten-year reunion with 14 members of our friends and family. The views are incomparable, and we enjoyed dazzling sunsets each night. The rooms of the villa are well-suited for housing many guests, as they're divided into private suites for families or a few couples, each with their own kitchens (with coffee maker!), bathrooms and sitting rooms. We had so much space to stretch out and chose one central kitchen to meet in every morning to plan our adventures over coffee. The lovely pool is another great gathering spot, and my mother commandeered it for water aerobics whenever we weren't swimming.
From the moment of my reservation, Liliana, our wonderful host, was a guide and godsend. She helped me book our transportation, a private chef, and some of our adventures (the wine tasting is not to be missed). She had endless patience for my many questions and adapted to our guests' needs (an airline snafu meant we had other guests arriving later, but she helped arrange transport for them as well). Snacks and drinks greeted us upon arrival, and her kind touches continued throughout our week-long stay. She and Dante are gems!
The villa is in an ideal location, walkable to Arezzo and a nearby grocery store, but secluded enough to let you soak up the bucolic Tuscan countryside. We enjoyed the historic touches throughout the buildings, including the pieces from the original monastery. We would love to return soon!
