Here at Easy Reserve, we like to sometimes curate recent reviews of properties on our websites by customers who have just enjoyed stays in these vacation rentals. This is a great way for future customers and returning guests alike to find the gems that others have directly experienced and can report back on. In particular, it is an ideal way to find five-star experiences.

However, while we aim to provide wonderful villa and holiday rentals to our clients, we also aim to always satisfy their requests, needs, queries and more all throughout the booking process; from finding a rental, to paying, to arrival, and right through their stay. Reviews of our service are also available on our website, with over a decade worth of examples to choose from. We also have had a Trustpilot account for several years now, which is an independent source of these reviews that many prefer to reference.

Here are a selection of some of our five-star reviews over on Trustpilot that may be of interest if you have been thinking about booking a vacation with us!

As temperatures cool after the summer months and now that our summer 2025 calendar is open for booking villas in Italy, it is a good time to consider the summer heat. Summers worldwide continue to get hotter and this is not something that is changing. While Italy is not even the country that is suffering most from this, it is a destination where people are really feeling the heat.

This is for a variety of reasons, most notably that air-conditioning is still not as universally used (though this is changing) as it is in some parts of the world, again for various reasons. If you are planning a holiday in Italy for the summer and you are sensitive to the heat or travelling with vulnerable people (children, older folks, people with various illnesses, et cetra) then there are some things that are worth keeping in mind in order to plan a comfortable stay so that you can make the most of your vacation. 

If you are considering booking one of our villas in Tuscany, you may be wondering about how long you should spend in Tuscany? Plus, should you move around and, if so, how often? 

Many people who come to Italy, decide to plan a big once-in-a-lifetime trip - especially if they are coming from a long distance - where they try and tick off as much as possible in one go. Of course, this is understandable if you do want to fit in as much as you can but we think that you can find one vacation rental in Tuscany that would make for a perfect base and still see plenty in one holiday without totally running yourself ragged and having to move around lots. Book a comfortable, relaxing, welcoming home to return to each evening or to spend lazy days by the pool doing little at all as well as having your big adventure days – that’s the best way to experience Tuscany!
