We stayed at Villa Esperia for a week, primarily doing skiing and visiting the thermal pools. There were 6 of us and the villa was able to accommodate all of us with comfort and enough space. Overall, very quiet surrounding, clean and warm villa. We enjoyed our stay a lot

San Giovanni Valdarno is an excellent location from which to explore the culture and scenery of the middle 1/3 of Italy. While we used our leased car for our excursions, there is excellent rail service at a very reasonable price. We enjoyed many walks, directly from our apartment.
We thoroughly enjoyed our relationships with the Mugnai family during our entire 2-month stay; they were pleasant and helpful.
The apartment is spacious, well-maintained and provides easy access to the outside. It is very accommodating for persons with mobility challenges. On the downside, since it is also designed to minimize oppressive summer heat, we found the floor cold. To ameliorate this, we suggested that the owner make available some mats for winter use. Although we cooked most of our meals in the small kitchen, we recommended that the owner install a microwave oven. We were pleased that the owner promptly provided a dehumidifier at our request.

Ein hübsches Haus auf einem Hügel in einem kleinen Weiler, absolut ruhige Lage mit sehr schöner Aussicht. Im Herzen des Chianti Classico-Gebietes, sehr gut gelegen für Ausflüge von Florenz bis Siena, San Giminiano und am weitesten waren wir in Volterra (ca. 1,5 Autostunden)
Die Fotos sind aktuell, Küche ist gut eingerichtet, Backofen funktioniert! Wir waren über Neujahr dort und es war sehr kalt (Temperaturen unter 0°). Das Haus ist schwer zu beheizen im Winter; Gasheizung ist sehr teuer (wir wurden von den Besitzern aber vorher informiert). Für die warme Jahreszeit sehr zu empfehlen. Besitzer Simone ist ein sehr guter Handwerker und war sofort zur Stelle, als eine Leitung gefroren war.
Nächstes Dorf Greve in Chianti sehr hübsch, dort gute Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Im Weiler sind Wein- und Olivenbauern, man kann direkt bei ihnen einkaufen. Guter Wein! Trotz Kälte hat uns alles sehr gut gefallen.
[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] A pretty house on a hill in a small hamlet, absolutely quiet location with great views. In the heart of the Chianti Classico area, very well located for trips to Florence, Siena, San Gimignano and Volterra where we were the most (about 1,5 hour drive).
The photos are up to date, the kitchen is well equipped, the oven works! We stayed over New Year and it was very cold (temperatures below 0 °). The house is hard to heat in winter; the gas heating is very expensive (we were anyway informed by the owners about that at our arrival). The property is very much recommended for the warm season. The owner Simone is a very good craftsman and was immediately on the spot when a pipe was frozen.
The nearest village Greve in Chianti very pretty with good shopping facilities. In the hamlet are vineyards and olive growers, you can buy directly from them. Good wine! Despite the cold we loved all very much.

This was a beautiful flat with all of the amenities that were advertised. There was easy access to the Engadin as we were walking distance from the train station. There was a lovely view of the valley from the flat. We were very happy overall. Our only concern was that the stairs felt very steep for our toddler, and we did not know that that would be an issue. They did provide a safety gate for the stairs. Also, while the sleeping areas were very nice, you had to watch your head when getting up at night.

Our Christmas at Borgo Gerlino for a special family reunion was fabulous! The villa was beautiful, well-located and although it was late December, the heated floors, heating system and large fireplace kept us very warm! The villa was perfect for my 80 year old parents, as well as the 20 year old grandchildren as it was situated near so many wonderful Tuscan cities. The owners were responsive to our special requests and we found the local staff very helpful and accommodating. The bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and well-appointed. We made many treasured memories at Borgo Gerlino and highly recommend it to other families or groups of friends travelling to Tuscany!
