Villa il Sasso - Dimora d'epoca

Great place to stay near Florence. Very near and convenient if you need to be in Grassina. Good transportation by bus to Florence, but is ideal if you have a car to move around the beautiful Tuscany region. Breakfast is very good, and the staff couldn't be better hosts. Comfortable and clean rooms.

The hotel is excellent. A major issue is the driveway up to the hotel. Coming up the hill there is a very tight right turn. The loose road surface makes it impossible to make the turn. The wheels just spin. You have to continue up the hill do a 3 point turn then come back down the hill and turn left into the driveway. They really need to sort out this driveway. Rolling backwards with your wheels spinning when trying to turn a tight right is both scary and dangerous.

This was part of our celebration of our 45th anniversary. This villa exceeded my expectations in so many ways. Emiliano and his staff were attentive, kind, caring and helped my personally with two "out of the box" issues during my stay. In short it was (from the perspective of a Texan travelling to Italy) the iconic Tuscany experience one is in search of. On a side note when I made the reservation in March I was slightly concerned there were no recent reviews in the past few months. I discovered it was because the villa is closed in the off season.

Beautiful, idyllic setting. Furnishings and decor very nice. Relaxing atmosphere. Excellent service from reception to meals.

Outstanding authentic property with extraordinary helpful staff.

Beautiful villa hotel. Great staff. Lovely pool and rooms Felt like being in a private house

Charming villa with a beautifully landscaped pool, tasteful decor, and delicious breakfast! The cappuccinos were especially good and the gracious owner was more than happy to oblige and make us 3 rounds of them at breakfast! They were also able to give us wonderful recommendations for wineries in the area!

Beautiful property. Excellent friendly staff. Lovely pool area. Good sized rooms with good facilities. Excellent wine at the bar at good prices.

Absolutely amazing. Emiliano, the owner was unreal. Rooms were big and perfect!!!

Gorgeous villa and helpful staff. The only downside was the pool was freezing cold and there was no hot tub. One of the main reasons we booked this villa over other places was the fact it advertised a hot tub!
