The stunning landscape of rolling hills and lush greenery of Tuscany is an innately inspiring place that can border on seeming unreal or like paradise, particularly the gorgeous Orcia Valley. In fact, if you find a villa in the Orcia Valley, you will easily see how beautiful it really is and understand why it was chosen for two very famous and pivotal scenes in Ridley Scott's Oscar-winning masterpiece, Gladiator. An enduring icon in the cinematic world over the past two decades, it was set in Ancient Rome but was filmed in locations across England, Morocco, and Malta, reconstructions of Ancient Roman cities and landmarks, and Tuscany's enchanting Orcia Valley.

Guest Reviews for Villa Gaeta
Centrally located to the major areas of Tuscany. Not far from Pienza and some local wineries and great view from the pool.

We stayed here in 2010 and again in September 2017 and we loved it just as much the second time around. The location, so close to Montefollonico, Pienza and Montepulciano, is perfect. Siena is a lovely one day trip. Grocery stores in Pienza and Montepulciano have everything you need for eating at home. The owner, Ricardo, lives nearby and is more than willing to help with answering questions and making dinner reservations. This villa is worth every penny and we would not hesitate to recommend it.

Excelente local. Excelente atendimento, feito pelo proprio proprietario, o senhor Ricardo Berna. So para ilustrar a enorme gentileza deste senhor, quando estavos chegando na Villa Gaeta, nos perdemos e liguei para o Senhor Ricardo. O mesmo veio nos buscar na cidade vizinha, e nos acompanhou até o local. A casa é excelente, com uma decoraçao sobria e limpa. A vista deslumbrante. Com certeza iremos retornar em breve.
Muito obrigado ao site Easy Reserve (muito profissional e honesto), e ao Senhor Ricardo Berna.

Set in a Landscape as good as a Renaissance Painting. Watching wild deer was a bonus. The only complaint from our adult children was that we had not booked villa Gaeta for long enough.
