Villa Sonia

This is without a doubt a very nice property and all of our party enjoyed our stay. The owners were very welcoming, the house is quite clean and charming. There are places for the whole group to get together but also areas for solitude. The landscaping is beautiful and very well cared for. The views are beautiful with views of the Tuscan countryside, wine and olive growing areas. It is very close to San Donato a beautiful small medieval town. there are 2 nice restaurants in the town one of which is less than 100 yards from the house. It's within easy driving distance to many interesting towns (Florence, Siena, San Gimmignano, Montalcino and others. Our family left with wonderful memories of this beautiful place and. of Tuscany.

One problem we had was that the rental agent Posarelli asked for each visitors biographical information including passport numbers only 2 days before we were to depart. This should have been done much more in advance.

perfect location between Firenze and Sienna in a nice little place San Donato. One of the best family vacations ever! the villa was as described on the website.
Supermarket, restaurants, etc. all in walking distance. Owner Extreme helpful. Villa Cleanliness Perfect!

We had a lovely relaxed stay at Villa Sonia. The Villa and grounds are immaculate. It suited our 4 generation party of 8 really well and we felt very at home there. There is plenty of room to accomodate everyone being together and also gives lots of private space aswell. The kitchens are well equipped and we enjoyed cooking and barbecuing as well as using the local restaurants. The pool and the air conditioning were a life saver in the high temperatures. The Villa is well placed for tourism. Despite the heat we had very enjoyable trips to San Gimignano, Monteriggioni, Castellina and Siena - all easily accessible. We also enjoyed wine tasting at Casa Emma next door.

Entre amis, nous avons passé un super séjour à la Villa Sonia, Les prestations sont de très belle qualité, le cadre est parfait au milieu de la Toscane, les chambres parfaites et toutes très bien équipées. L'équipe d'accueil est également très agréable.
Un sans faute !

The Villa and grounds are immaculate. Close to a lot of the small Chianti towns and central location if wanting to travel to Florence, Venice etc.The Villa was as described and more. There was plenty of separate rooms for all 12 of my family. Lots of kitchen and dining space. Enough dishes and accessories anyone would need. The pool was huge and enjoyed every day. So clean and beautiful scenery all around. Plenty of loungers, towels etc. Loved it on those hot day. Loved how the bedrooms were like separate apartments. Our family consisted of 4 separate families and we all had our own spaces. The 3 older grandchildren had their rooms and bathroom upstairs to themselves so worked out great. They were all very clean and very unique. Beds were very comfortable and air conditioned which we really appreciated. Bathrooms were clean, showers were great. Nothing to complain about here. Loved the little town of San Donato which is within walking distance of the Villa. An amazing restaurant on the hills next to Village plus many others in town. Best pizza by the street vendor. The Posaerelli agency was very helpful helping me plan before our trip and once we got her Debora the owner was very helpful with suggestions and providing us with everything we needed including a stroller. Both answered our questions quickly and with patience. Thank you!!

We stayed at Villa Sonia during a family vacation to Tuscany. The Villa is absolutely wonderful, we can't say enough positive things about the grounds, amenities, pool, etc. It is a very special place and we enjoyed it immensely. The host Deborah and family are welcoming, helpful and take excellent care of Villa Sonia. It was perfect for our needs as we are a large family and appreciated having separate living spaces but communal areas to gather as well. The hosts have truly thought of everything to make their guests stay comfortable, enjoyable and peaceful. The pictures don't do it justice, it's even more beautiful in person. The location is quaint and there are a few good restaurants, grocery store and pharmacy in walking distance. The village of San Donato in Poggio is charming and serene and we loved seeing the town. There are also good wineries within 15 minutes drive. Highly recommend Villa Sonia! Make sure to plan for free time for the pool as you won't want to leave!

We’ve just returned from the most glorious week at Villa Sonia and it really is a most beautiful, special place. The grounds, gardens, house and apartment are well-equipped, comfortable and the owners, Debora and family, have thought of everything. We were there for a big birthday celebration and it was the perfect spot for 13 of us, so many lovely seating areas, heavenly pool and gardens for relaxing never felt crowded. We had two lovely local ladies cook dinner one night and it was honestly, the most delicious meal we all had that week (and we’d eaten in some fabulous places). Villa Sonia really is as beautiful as the photos, and such a super location in the Tuscany/Chianti region. The owner and family are rightly very proud of their property, want only that guests have a memorable experience and enjoy their time there. They deliver on this a hundred times, it’s a gem and we’ve the most wonderful memories.

A perfect venue for our family celebration.
There was plenty of space, beautiful garden areas. The pool was clean. The kitchen very well equipped as was the laundry room.
Plenty of space for us to eat together inside and outside.
The owners were quick to respond if we have any issue and we’re very welcoming and pleasant.
The location is perfect for visiting key places of interest,
It was great to be able to walk to bars and restaurants were the locals were very friendly.
We would definitely consider visiting again.

Lovely villa and beautiful grounds. We loved the wine cellar where we could simply sign out wine at our leisure (pay at the end). There are many little sitting areas to relax that allowed us to enjoy the stunning sunsets and enjoy flowers growing everywhere on the property. The pool area is fabulous and well done! We are a family of 5 with 3 young adults and had plenty of room.
Here’s what we’d wish we’d known:
•Beds were very hard/firm. Very.
•Pillows hard/flat.
•Towels/linens should be updated.
None of us slept comfortably but it’s hard to complain with everything else so beautiful.
The coffee situation is challenging. You can use the drip coffee maker (buy coffee and groceries at the near by little grocery store) but no coffee filters provided (needs cone shaped filters), so couldn’t use. Anyway, not a deal breaker but good to know (pack filters).

Deb (the home owners family) met us there late upon arrival and was so kind and welcoming. We appreciated the fresh eggs left and the thoughtful tour.
One last important note: the location is very near SR222, the most gorgeous scenic route through Tuscany. That is a huge benefit!
Villa Sonia is warm and inviting, we highly recommend it.

Villa Sonia was the perfect setting for our family with young children. The Villa was beautiful, spotless and well kept. The location for touring Tuscany could not have been better. The owners were accommodating and helpful. We could not have asked for more!

We booked two weeks at Villa Sonia and invited friends and family to join us on our Tuscan dream vacation. We chose Villa Sonia because of the modern look of the interior and the location. We could not have picked a better property. The owners were waiting for us when we arrived. The place was immaculate. There are three rooms in the main living quarters and another three separate rooms with private entrances. It was perfect for our needs. The infinity pool is spectacular. It was crystal clear and overlooked the beautiful Tuscan hills. The location is perfect. Centrally located between Florence, Siena and San Gimignano. About 40 minutes from the Florence Airport. There is some road noise which you can hear when outside but it is not too bad and a small inconvenience considering the location and impeccable condition of the property. I highly recommend you put Villa Sonia at the top of your list. You will not be disappointed.

Nous avons passé 2 semaines formidables en famille dans cette magnifique région. La maison (ou plutôt les maisons) sont très confortables, le terrain est immense et la piscine magnifique.
Les hôtes ont été aux petits soins pour nous. Tout a été parfait.

The villa is breathtaking. I was speechless while being shown around the property as it is so beautiful. The pictures do not do it justice. The pool is incredible, the villa has all the amenities you would ever need and more. The grounds to walk around are beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at villa Sonia and would love to come back again. The host Debora was so friendly and answered all our questions. This place is worth every penny.

A lovely place with stunning views and an excellent pool!

We had an incredible stay at Villa Sonia. The pictures don’t do it justice! An incredibly comfortable, well appointed villa, which so much space for an extended family stay. The views and location are exceptional! Can’t recommend highly enough

Perfect villa in a perfect location for a 3 generations vacation. We - a family over 3 generations of 7 adults & 2 small children - spent a week in this beautiful location and way above standard villa. The entire host family was awaiting us on the property to ensure everything is in order. Everything was sparkling clean and in working order, the kitchen well equipped for at least 10 eaters and space for 3 simultaneous chefs and even more bystanders. We had the lunches usually in our sight seeing destinations (Siena, Florence, San Gimignano) and cooked dinner ourselves every day in the house and enjoyed a perfectly grilled bistecca fiorentina and self made pizza & bread from the fabulous pizza oven. The table in the garden was the perfect setting for this with the benefit of no driver needed after extensive wine tasting. The quality of the furnitures and actually all items in and around the house are of unusual high quality - what a nice difference to the cheap plastic stuff you find in most places. The pool was absolutely spotless, the lawn well kept. The property is large enough, so one can enjoy also a quite moment "away from the crowd". We all in the family agreed that is one of the few places we would consider to return - next time for 2 weeks !

Heerlijk ruim huis met geweldige faciliteiten op een adembenemende rustige plek. Huis is mooi onderhouden en schoon. Zeer vriendelijke mensen.

A luxurious villa in a beautiful setting. Excellent quality: very nice rooms, good furniture, very clean.Very nice garden, with a lot of privacy.All equipment is available for use. in the kitchen. All you can wish for!

Great stay in a new location for us

Una estancia de ensueño. La villa está situada espléndidamente a mitad de camino de Florencia y de siena (aprox 30 km de cada una) lo que permite acceder varias veces a las mismas. La villa es preciosa. Muy cuidada. Vistas estupendas y una piscina magnífica.la vivienda espaciosa y con todo lujo de detalles. Pegada a un pueblo medieval con todos los servicios como san Donato in poggio. La propiedad es súper atenta y está disponible permanentemente para solucionar todos los problemas que puedan surgir. Un acierto sin duda. Un diez todo. Problema generalizado en la
Toscana y con el que hay que estar alerta, los mosquitos. Gracias a Débora, sonia y marco por su disposición. Inolvidable

Great holiday, introduced to the property on arrival by the family/owners. Beautifully clean and the layout suited our 3 families perfectly. The kitchen was an added bonus, so many large houses we visit simply do not have the tools for cooking for 12 but this villa certainly does. So we eat most evenings at the villa but we did pop out and eat at the local pizzeria which is close and cheap and very tasty. Located with easy reach of San Gimignano/Florence/Siena and dozens of winery’s. We visited Fatteria La Ripa about a mile away and the host was knowledgeable and great story teller, so much more interesting than the normal ‘we produce 150k bottles and they cost €!’
All round great holiday and great and well appointed inside and out villa and the A/C was a really appreciated and well used !!
We would highly recommend :-)

One of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed! Every comfort was considered. Many beautiful spots to sit and enjoy the view.

Absolutely fabulous vacation and even more fabulous villa! It was beautiful, well kept and in an incredible setting. We will be back!

We had a wonderful time and the owners are terrific!

In dieser Villa findet man einen wunderbaren Mix aus rustikal und modern an. Es ist alles sehr schön gemacht. Der Garten ist wunderschön und im Sommer sicherlich ein Traum! Die Lage ist ruhig mit schöner Aussicht. Von der Villa aus kommt man schnell nach Florenz und Siena. Auch der kleine Ort San Donato ist sehr schön und einen Besuch Wert ist auf jeden Fall Certaldo Alto. Vielen Dank für die guten Empfehlungen und den schönen Urlaub.

We had a wonderful holiday in this extravagant villa. The decor is very nice, the swimming pool just heavenly and the location perfect. You can go to Florence, Siena and the Chianti area. In the garden of the house you can relax in peace and enjoy the picturesque surroundings. The hosts were very nice. We can only recommend the villa.

Beatificazione place with breathtaking surroundings. Very good Restaurants near by. Good position to visit Florence, Siena, San Gimignano and Pisa too. Higly recommended.

We were traveling with 3 families and liked the house and the proximity to the town and the surroundings very much. It was a dream. Thank you also the very nice owners!

Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Urlaub in dieser Luxusvilla. Es war noch nicht echt warm, aber das Haus und die Umgebung waren so schön, das das Wetter nur eine 2.rangige Rolle gespielt hat. Wir kommen gerne wieder.
