Questo è il caso di Villa Poggio (aka Maestà del sasso) che si è rivelato un soggiorno perfetto sotto tutti i punti di vista. Eravamo tre famiglie con diverse esigenze e la struttura aveva già tutto ed in abbondanza. Quando abbiamo chiesto un favore, l'host è corso per accontentarci. A dimostrazione che in Toscana non è sempre sufficiente avere una bella struttura ed il panorama da bocca aperta per accontentare la gente. Ci vuole anche efficienza e cura nei dettagli. E qui ce ne sono da vendere. read less - 8/23/2020

Cortona è molto carina e i dintorni offrono tantissimo, sia in termini di cose da vedere che di qualità del cibo. La struttura, però, ci ha reso difficile allontanarci! Pulita, curatissima, piena di ogni comfort, dotata di tutto ciò che può servire per un soggiorno e di molto di più! Spazi esterni meravigliosi, un giardino bellissimo contornato da ulivi, un gazebo per mangiare fuori dotato anche di camino per barbecue, una piscina perfetta, corredata da lettini, sdraio e ombrellone. Spazi interni ampi e curatissimi in ogni dettaglio. Ogni cosa evidentemente fatta con l'obiettivo di fare soggiornare le persone al massimo. I proprietari, gentilissimi, oltre ad offrici del vino, ci hanno portato anche una bottiglia del loro olio e i fornelletti per allontanare le zanzare (ci sono anche le zanzariere a porte e finestre).
Davvero una struttura da sogno. read less - 8/21/2020

Andreas family villa did not disappoint. The pictures do not do this place justice... if that’s even possible. I don’t think I could have imagined how gorgeous this place was.
The flat arrangement and separate kitchens allowed for our family to stay comfortably as a group but still allowed the privacy and separation.
Andrea was able to assist and provide recommendations as needed. We had a few last minute things come up.

Can’t say enough about this place. It was clean and in a good location. Very centralized for anyone looking to make day trips to Florence, Rome, Pisa etc. read less - 10/21/2019

We all stayed in the same place by had our own space and separate units.

The Villa has 3 seperate units in it which was perfect for us. Two of the units have two bedrooms, while one has 3 bedrooms. My family of 5 stayed in the unit with 3 bedrooms.

From arriving to having the gates on the driveway open, the villa, the views, and the grounds are all amazing. It is very close to town, and there is a co-op supermarket which proved very handy. A lot of essentials had been left by previous guests (laundry detergent, charcoal, etc) to get you going, we did end up buying some more and leaving it for the next guests. The rooms are spacious and clean. The air conditioning works well.

The grounds are amazing, the pool had beautiful views. There was a lovely covered outdoor table that could easily seat all 11 of us. A charcoal brick BBQ which we made great use of...

My parents had great communication with the host. We all loved it!

All in all, this is probably the most scenic place we stayed at. We haven's stopped speaking about it since we got back. read less - 9/02/2019

Three flats each contain bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchens. Even more than we would expect from photos, the property outside is filled with colorful flowers and fruit trees. Parking on the grounds is plentiful. The drive up to the gates of the city of Cortona took only 5 minutes. The pool is a siesta heaven. The AC at night was perfect for a good night's sleep. For a large family or group looking to explore the region, this place is perfect. read less - 8/31/2019

It lies within a walking distance from Tuscany's jewel - Cortona, and Camucia where you can get your groceries. It is a quiet and heavenly island in an otherwise quite busy area. The big house divided in three separated sections can easily accommodate 14 people without making them feel crowded. We've been there as three families and we felt great having plenty of space to spend time together as well as to find some privacy and solitude. The garden of Villa Poggio is beautiful and separated from neighbors with olive groves - full privacy is guaranteed. The views from the garden up the hills on Cortona are spectacular as well as down the hills to the valley. I had high expectations as I've rented Villa Poggio for my wedding. It exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this place, and it's host Andrea to anyone looking for a wonderful Tuscan experience. read less - 6/01/2019

He left us a plate of delicious pastries and bottles of wine upon arrival. He advised us of good restaurants. He was very nice to give us a ride to the station when we departed.

The home was lovely and a great size and space for our large group. The key situation was sometimes a little difficult as each key opened a separate part of the house but it wasn't a big problem. There were not a lot of places to hang towels but the radiators worked well and also dried the towels well. It was quite rainy when we were there so it was a bit humid. I would request a few more kitchen towels as well.

The location was good but you definitely need a car as the walking areas are on busy streets.

Great value for the price. read less - 11/23/2018

There are gardens surrounding the villa and small orchards as well. The outside spaces were so inviting and we all found ourselves there for coffee early in the day and often ended the day outside as well after we returned from the most amazing day trips. The Villa itself was spacious and everyone was happy with their rooms. Of note, there are three separate spaces and you can’t go from one to the other without going outside. This actually worked fine for us but somehow I wasn’t expecting that. Each space has bedrooms, bathrooms and a kitchen.
Andrea arranged for 2 chefs to cook a birthday dinner for us one evening. What a great meal!
We loved being so near Cortona and would reccomend staying here. read less - 11/04/2018

Andrea could not have been nicer or more accommodating! This villa is perfectly located between Camucia and Cortona- so easy to access. The accommodations were pristine and the views are amazing! There were 3 couples and we all had our own space and could also gather together - whether it be at the dining room table or outdoors overlooking the view! We all enjoyed this villa and would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone! read less - 10/21/2018

Pool and BBQ area great too - although BBQ is charcoal not gas. The location was very good between Camucia and Cortona in a rural setting. The road is not numbered and the place was initially hard to find. However if you have access to (Hidden by Airbnb) maps you should be OK read less - 9/15/2018

It was a gorgeous and clean villa - perfect for a large group bc there were separate living spaces, large rooms
and plenty of bathrooms for such a large group. Andrea was very quick at responding when we had questions about the stay and also when I had to alter the check in because my husband and I were about six hours delayed due to flight issues. This is a great location close to Cortona but also other Tuscan towns with wonderful people and small restaurants and coffee shops/bakeries. I highly recommend it! read less - 9/05/2018

The house is perfect for 3-4 families as there are separate apartments with bed rooms, bathrooms, kitchen and living room. The units are well connected in one big house. Nice area outside of the house for various activities. The pool might be a bit smaller than the pictures indicates, but it is big enough to get cooled down during the sunny days in Tuscany. The town close by, Cortona, is very nice and can be recommended a visit (and the castle!) in addition to Montepulciano, Florence and other places relatively close to the house. Eager to do some shopping? make sure to visit the Outlet just a 25 min drive from the house named Valdichiana Outlet, and you'll find some good bargins.

So, nice house, clean, well organized regarding the deposit and keys, and it do have air con in all bed rooms so your sleep is secured. read less - 7/15/2018
