The view was wonderful, location was nice, everything was well organized, and the villa was as roomy as expected. The kitchen should be better equipped, as it lacked a microvawe oven and was quite small for our group. Some of us had allergic symptoms inside the villa, maybe there was some kind of problem with air conditioning. However, we were satisfied and enjoyed our holiday!
Très belle villa avec une vue magnifique et des équipements tennis + piscine + salle de jeu très utiles pour un séjour familial. Un accueil très chaleureux, et sympathique. Le terrain de tennis est un peu 'usé' mais reste praticable pour du jeu en famille. La partie cuisine est bien organisée, mais un peu limitée pour 15 personnes, bbq inclus. A recommander pour passer un séjour en toute tranquilité, aux environs d'Arezzo (à découvrir) et à 80 kms de Florence et Sienne.
The whole family enjoyed the big house, the surrounding, the magnificent view and the sweet owner We all want to be back some time
