Casa Vania

We enjoyed our stay at the Villa. It is right in the village of Donnini, it is close to a bakery, grocery store and two restaurants. The scenery is beautiful; however, you will need a car to get around Tuscany. We easily took a train to Florence and drove to Pisa and Fiesole.

The house was AMAZING! The view off the terrace was breathtaking, even when it rained. We spent most of the time on the patio taking in the views but also explored the town, which was peaceful and charming. There’s a market, bar, and cafe within 100 steps of the house, very convenient. You need a car if you want to leave the town much, but the drive to Florence was less than an hour and so was the drive to wineries in Chianti. My husband and I stayed with my 8-month old baby and the host had a baby crib and high chair ready for us, which was wonderful! The mother in law suite was great too, but it was not connected to the house so my mom had to walk outside to get to the main house, but it was nice weather so not too inconvenient. They also checked us in around midnight when we were delayed at the airport and had a bottle of wine waiting after a long journey. Would stay again in a heartbeat. We didn’t want to leave!

Even though the weather did not do us any favors, we enjoyed our time spent in the villa all week. The views are breathtaking and the property manager and owner are very friendly and helpful. The town is lovely. Our only wishes were that there was a bathroom on the main floor. Would stay again.

We definitely enjoyed our stay in the villa. It has a lot to offer and is very spacious. There‘s a little cafe/bar and a supermarket right next to it which is very convenient. But we only noticed when we came there that we had to pay 150€ on top in cash for cleaning. Other than that we can really recommend the villa and would come back :)

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour. Maison spacieuse, agréable, bien équipée, avec une très jolie vue et une piscine privative. Les commerces à proximité facilitent également le quotidien.

The pool water are very cold and not heatable. otherwise Petfect!

Excellent

Lovely property with all the amenities you will need. Donnini is a quaint village that is as authentic as you could imagine.

La casa è molto bella e trasuda la storia di chi la ha concepita ed arredata ed ha un forte carattere, sia all’interno che all’esterno. Posizione ottima e a pochi passi da tutti i servizi come alimentari, bar, farmacie, banca, poste, ristorante e pizzeria. Siamo stati molto bene e ci siamo rilassati grazie alla terrazza con affaccio vallata, stupenda e alla piscina anche essa vista vallata . Molto piacevole la conoscenza della signora Iris che ci ha fatto il check in e check out e dei proprietari per la loro cortesia e gentilezza. Grazie ancora Sandro e Roberta

Absolutely stunning view.

The villa is very spacious leaves nothing to be desired. The interior is certainly unique - almost like in a museum. For the weather no one can do anything... It was unfortunately colder than expected. Among other things, we could not use the pool.

Casa Vania (locally known as Casa del Forno) is lovely, well-appointed and tastefully furnished. The grounds are beautiful and the views even better. The location is perfect in this little village with all necessary services available. Iris was most kind and helpful and easy to contact. She responded very quickly to our requests and arranged us a contact to Massimiliano, who with his comfortable MB van took us to San Gimignano and airport, most convenient! Apart from the unheated pool (yes, water is too chilly to enjoy swimming, more like a plunge pool, unfortunately) our stay was perfect

Beautiful villa, well appointed, comfortable, spacious and full of the original owner's rich artwork and spirit, it was a pleasure to stay at Casa Vania.
One minute walk from the main square where there is a coffee shop and bar, bakery, supermarket, butcher and pharmacy. Pool area was beautiful but pool is unheated, still very refreshing on hot days.

Very nice villa with a stunning view! We loved to stay here.

Wir haben uns in der schönen Villa sehr wohlgefühlt. Der Ausblick der Terrasse ist atemberaubend und wir haben wunderschöne Sonnenuntergänge bei einem Glas Wein genossen. Der Pool wurde von den Kindern viel genutzt. Im Ort ist ein kleiner Lebensmittelmarkt der mal einen kurzen Einkauf ermöglicht um einen erholsamen Tag am Haus zu verbringen. Alles ist top gepflegt und die Vermieter kümmern sich liebevoll um das ganze drum herum. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen!

Sehr viel Platz, wunderschöne Aussicht, spezielle italienische Einrichtung mit viel Charme und eine tolle Terrasse. Schöner Ort zum Erholen. :)

Piscina bella ma con acqua troppo fredda .e spese di pulizia finale troppo alte. X il resto molto bello

Neben der Villa ist auch das Umfed hervorragend. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, Bar und Pizzeria in unmittelbarer Nähe und unglaublich freundliche Leute

Bellissima villa, molto originale per quanto riguarda l'arredamento, nella pace dell'appennino toscano.

Skønt og smukt sted med alt hvad vi havde brug for.

Very pleasant and relaxing place. The house was very clean and pay attention on small details. You can feel yourself like at home. Kitchen is well equipped as well the rooms and bathrooms. If you want to stay in a real tuscan house, do not hesitate! Go and enjoy Vania's house

So stellt man sich ein typisches Haus in der Toakana vor: Balkendecken, Terracotta-Böden, eingerichtet mit witzigen Gegenständen. Und eine Bar fast vor der Tür. Wir haben uns bestens erholt und empfehlen das Haus gerne weiter.

Very nice quality house, small kitchen, wish the pool was heated, poor internet. But the view from the terrace was beautiful, located in a small and quiet little village. Not too far from Florence.

Huis was in orde. Prachtig zicht vanop het terras. Ligging: ideale ligging in het centrum van Donnini: bakker, kleine supermarkt, slager en krantenwinkel op wandelafstand. Nadeel: zwembad ligt aan de noord kant en daardoor is het water nogal koud. We hebben hiervan niet kunnen genieten.

great villa. great people.
