Guest Reviews
- Patrycja (10/5): Great stay - So friendly and helpful hosts. Apartament was like new one, I was super satisfied. Nothing
- raffaele (10/5): - La struttura è molto accogliente, caratteristica e pulita, immersa nel verde, lo staff "Valentina" eccezionale, gentile e disponibile, di tanto in tanto fa capolino una simpatica Tartaruga che gira nel giardino circostante la casina Direi Nulla da segnalare
- Emilie (10/5): Amazing stay in gorgeous casina with outstanding owner. - Valentina was amazing and very friendly. She gave us loads of advices and quickly got us a cot for our son, after I forgot to mention we needed one when booking.
The place is gorgeous next to her house, sharing her beautiful garden with a little turtle roaming the place to our son's delight. The accomodation is beautifully decorated, very comfortable and in a quiet area. We loved the stay, but bear in mind that there is no kitchen, only a microwave, coffee machine and plenty of plates, cups and cutleries. Not that we didn't like it, but you definitely need a car. All you need is only at 5 or 10 min max drive, but walking wouldn't be very practical. So parking space was much appreciated 🙂

Un oasi di pace pulita e accogliente.
La proprietaria è disponibilissima e molto gentile.
Posizione top. Nulla da dire
- Venturino Antonio (9/5): Bellissima vacanza - La gentilezza di Valentina e Francesco ci hanno fatto sentire di casa... Un po' troppo caldo e zanzare purtroppo. Non essendoci i condizionatori ci sarebbero volute le zanzariere...
- Barry (8/5): Very good -
- Martin (10/5): Exceptional - Loved the hospitality. Owner and her husband are very friendly people. Easy communication via WhatsApp and the live next door if any problems occur. Everythin looks exactly like shown on the photos - so there are no surprises. Can totally recommend this place! Would have loved to see their turtle which is running around the garden - but she was hiding too good for me ;)
- Ian (8/5): It's a very nice property for a short stay. - The hosts were amazing and helped us through a difficult time when my husband fell ill. They were more than helpful. No breakfast but had coffee, tea and fridge. Host brought us special tea and lemon for sick hubby. We didn't find the bed comfortable. I don't like incense or oils and had to remove it from the room. It's in an industrial area so can't walk to shops.
- Rodriguez (10/5): A wonderful little gem in the middle of the Tuscan hills! Top find! - Beautiful, welcoming and clean Nothing - excellent find
- Paolo (9/5): We would have liked to stay longer! - It's great to stay in a room with a garden, birds in the morning, and quiet all around. Very nice breakfast with homemade cake!
- Thomas (10/5): Ultimate tuscan getaway amidst picturesque vineyards. - A lot of attention to detail with all amenities needed for a great stay. Nicely located next to several vineyards. Very scenic drive.
- Bojana (10/5): Charming and cozy - We were traveling trough Tuscany we needed a place to sleep over night. The place was clean, comfortable, great equipped and the interior was so charming . Especially the host was kind and willing to help us about everything . I would highly recommend you this place and not only for one night.
- Richard (10/5): This is the place to stay if your in the area. - Valentina is exceptional. Prior to our arrival she sent explicit directions/pictures on where to park, how to enter the apartment, internet connection and restaurant recommendations. Upon arrival she greeted us at the door, explained everything about the apartment, and even left nice selection of little things to eat. Although breakfast was not included, the pastry that she baked and left for us made up for it. Plus there was a coffee/tea selection. Very nice. Upon departure, her husband came out to say goodbye because Valentina was at a school function. We liked everything about her rental and can't say anything negative or constructive. We would stay here again if we were in the area.
- Irina (10/5): Exceptional -
- Josef (9/5): Superb -
- Orlando (9/5): Personal touches made a difference - Breakfast was good with the addition of a personal touch
- Dofrlic (10/5): Exceptional -
- Marin (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean and nicely decorated facility. The hosts were excellent and at your service. Their restaurant and tavern recommendations turned out to be excellent. We definitely recommend. Breakfast was nice and plentiful
- Boštjan (10/5): Exceptional - Really kind and really clean
- Lina (10/5): Exceptional - Very nice, cozy apartment with super friendly owners.
- Dariia (9/5): 2 days holiday in Tuscany - Pleasant hosts, very nice, we were well met, were always in touch. Valentina, the owner of the apartment, even baked us a cake. It was a pleasure. The apartments are very clean, comfortable, great design. Comfortable bed and comfortable spacious shower.
Near San Gimignano, a beautiful old town and not far from Siena. The apartments are located near the Florence-Siena motorway, which is very convenient if you are by car. If there was a small kitchen area, it would be great! Everything else was great!
- Catalina (10/5): Just perfect! - We enjoyed a lot our stay at La Casina di Cioccolata. Everything was perfect: very comfortable, quiet, well equipped, very clean and spacious room. On top of that, Valentina is an excellent host, she is extremely nice and welcoming. She cooked a delicious cake for us, she recommended nice places to visit and good restaurants for our stay in Tuscany. We highly recommend La Casina, it is the prefect place to stay.
