A Dream Vacation in Tuscany
Roberta & Vasco (the owners) could not have been better 'hosts'. Whenever we had an issue, they were right on top of it. The great location of the Villa enabled us to visit so many beautiful places by car and also, because of the convenience of the train station in Certaldo. We had a wonderful 4 weeks and again, thank you, Roberta & Vasco.

Beautiful spacious villa in an outstanding location
We had a a week stay between 1-8th August 2023. The host Vasco met us on arrival and explained everything we needed to know to make our stay perfect. He also recommended some excellent restaurants.His daughter, Roberta, was also excellent at answering any enquires we had leading up to our stay and one while we were there.The villa is beautiful, very spacious with a lovley pool and outside area. It is also in a great location for visting local towns such as Siena and Florence which we did by train as the station is only about 2km from the Villa. A must is a visit to the old town of Certaldo and a meal out at Vasco's recommended restaurant.

Villa Retreat
The Villa presented as advertised. Vasco greeted us and gave us a house tour. He and Roberta were easy to communicate with and were responsive to all our questions. The location allowed us to do day trips and still return early enough to enjoy the patio and pool. Our family made memories, at this peaceful setting, which will be cherished for a lifetime.

Gorgeous villa in fabulous location
We had a wonderful time in Villa Grazia. Vasco and his daughter Roberta were extremely helpful and accommodating hosts and nothing was too much bother for them. They even helped us to book wine-tasting at the local Corbucci vineyard (which we would thoroughly recommend) when we were unable to get through to them. Vasco would clean the pool and take away our recycling every morning which was much appreciated. Certaldo is in a fabulous location. It is so close to all the main sights of Tuscany and San Gimignano is only a 15-20 minute drive away. We went to Florence and Siena by train as Certaldo has a train station and that worked out really well for us. Certaldo old town is also lovely and can be accessed easily by the little funicular which runs every 15 minutes. We had some lovely meals up there and would especially recommend Antico Fonte which has incredible views across the valley to San Gimignano in its restaurant garden. Certaldo is famed for producing quality onions including onion ice cream which has to be tried as it is far nicer than it sounds ! The villa is very comfy and spacious (more so than the photos suggest) with a large garden and pool. Our only criticisms are that the electrics and plumbing are very out of date and could do with being upgraded. If you like power showers then you will not get those in this villa and it can take a long time for hot water to come through – but do persevere as it does in the end – but that was no real issue for us for 2 weeks

Our stay at Villa Grazia, Gambasse Terme, Certaldo
We were a family of 7 staying at the Villa. The owner, Vasco made us feel very welcome. We had a lovely time sitting around the pool during the day and eating out at night. Trains to Siena and Florence from Certaldo station were fairly frequent. We also managed to book a wine tasting (takes about an hour) at a winery further up the road but it's uphill and would advise you drove to it. We booked online. We especially liked using the pizza oven and the bbq. Thank you Vasco and Roberta - you are excellent hosts.

Amazing 10 day stay at this beautiful house
On arrival everything was spotlessly clean, the house had everything you could possibly need. The pictures of the house are spot on but do not truly show how beautiful it is inside. The pool was lovely and Vasco and family were amazing and helpful. We enjoyed amazing trips to Siena, San Guimininano, Florence and The restaurants of Certaldo Alto were fabulous. Please stay here and enjoy!

Tuscany Villa on the edge of Certaldo next door to the wonderful Tuscan countryside.
We thoroughly enjoyed our week at this large 4 bedroom/bathroom villa with plenty of secure car parking and adequate swimming pool immediately adjacent to the huge living room and external dining area with plenty of necessary shade and sun loungers. The efficient air-conditioning was a godsend in the 38⁰C daytime heat. Great pizzeria 5 minutes walk away with bar adjacent. San Giminagno a short drive away and Firenze by train with free car park near Certaldo Station. Certaldo Alto medieval area is accessible by Funicular from central downtown area.

The property is incredible in a great location close to many beautiful cities like San Gimignano, Siena, Volterra, Florence and Pisa. The house is very spacious but the best part are the lovely hosts Vasco and Roberta! Highly recommend!

Wonderful Villa, Gorgeous location, Highly recommend
We were a group of 7 adults who stayed at Vasco's wonderful property. The outside of the house is as wonderful as it looks in the pictures with a generous pool, sun-beds, BBQ and grassy area. The inside of the house is much bigger and nicer than the pictures suggest. It is truly a gorgeous house with big bedrooms, huge bathrooms and a very well equipped kitchen. We spent many nights cooking for ourselves and eating at the lovely outdoor table. Vasco and his daughter Roberta could not be better hosts. They were quick to respond to any of our needs and Vasco came to clean the pool early every morning. We had a storm that hit us one day and broke one of the sun umbrellas. One quick text to Roberta and Vasco had it replaced before we got up the next morning. You could not ask for better or nicer hosts. The location is also ideal. From the villa it is roughly a 30 min walk or a very quick drive to the centre of Certaldo. From there we got the train to Sienna and Florence and we also drove to the gorgeous San Gimignano. It was such a luxury to have such wonderful cities near. There is also a lot to explore in Certaldo and you can take the funicular to Certaldo Alto which is not to be missed. A gorgeous old town with some unbelievable restaurants and stunning views. For wine lovers you must visit Corbucci's vineyard just up the road from the Villa. We are serious wine lovers and we got to taste some of the best wine we have ever had and bought lots to ship home! We had a fabulous two weeks at this Villa and would recommend it highly. We hope to return soon.
