Very well maintained property with comprehensive directions supplied. Lovely location looking towards San Gimignano. Air conditioned too and a lovely pool to cool down in.
Went there for our silver wedding anniversary and it was well positioned to access Siena, Florence and other villages nearby.

Lovely, quiet spot to stay. Enjoyed the pool and wonderful views. Great communication and quick responses from our host. Excellent information provided prior to our arrival and as well once we arrived. Air conditioning in the bedrooms made sleeping easy in the hot heat while there. Very clean, comfortable furniture and beds and the kitchen is very well stocked. If you want to get out of the big cities and stay in Tuscany this is an excellent base and the travel out to the various towns are easy drives. Highly recommend.

This may sound a bit exaggerated, but I assure you it isn't. We have been to Tuscany on a few occasions, but this apartment was the most beautiful, tranquil and well-equipped property that we have stayed in. The apartment is very comfortable and relaxing, spacious and airy, a functioning kitchen (which isn't always the case in rental properties) well-tended, colourful gardens, a lovely pool and wonderful views. Mike's advice to stock up enroute at the Conad supermarket is worth following, so that you don't have to drive to Gambassi Carrefour too often (although it is a friendly store). There are restaurants of various levels in the area, and we ate well at all those we visited. We stayed for two weeks, and I wish it had been three.

Amazing views of rural Tuscany!
This beautiful apartment is located between San Giminiano and Volterra. Count an hour before you reach Sienna and Florence. If you have children, the pool will be a major plus considering the heat of the Tuscan summer. Our host Mike has plenty of tips to share with his guests and be sure to follow his advice when it comes to fine dining!

Quiet, rural location
Beautiful, quiet, rural location. Well kept & equipped accommodation. Nice pool. Great to explore places such as San Gimignano & Volterra. Mike, the owner, is very friendly, communicative & helpful.
Cons for us as a young family: a little bit isolated, the pool being a uniform depth wasn’t ideal for really little ones. I think it’s best suited for older couples & families.
Overall, very satisfied.

Fantastic!
If you are looking for a place in the stunning Tuscan countryside, this fits the bill nicely! A car is required and you have to travel about 3kms down a gravel road but once you are there, it is outstanding! The peace, the quiet, the beautiful rolling hills. Mike is an excellent host, is responsive and provides all the information you need to have a fantastic visit. The apartment is on the second floor so there are 17 steps to navigate but the views are incredible. Two nicely sized bedrooms, two bathrooms, a fully stocked kitchen, decent internet and laundry. What more could you ask for? We loved it.

Amazing
Absolutely loved this location and the Apartment. Mike gave amazing and precise directions to the apartment as well as great details for appliances etc use in the apartment as well as recommendations for restaurants, cooking schools and wine tastings. Along with supermarkets, farmacias and hospitals. We stayed in 3 different apartments in Italy and by far this one provided the most complete information. The Netflix box for watching movies was a nice add for the cold rainy day we had. Mike checked in to be sure we had everything we needed during the week and we couldn’t have asked for better care. It is in an awesome location for visiting many sites in Tuscany and the views cannot be beat!

Rural apartment
We enjoyed 6 days at Mikes property. The accommodation was really comfortable. With everything you could possibly need for a holiday stay. We were very fortunate to be just 1 of 4 groups of guests staying at the accommodation. So when using the pool we invariably had it all to ourselves. The accommodation is ideally placed between Florence and Siena so we opted to use the train from Poggibonsi as it was easier to park for free at the station and the fare was cheap. Don’t forget to visit Volterra and San Giminganano, some of the other local villages are spectacular too. That you Mike for being such a great host, a pleasure to talk with you. Everything was done to make our stay comfortable. Friends of ours have already asked us for information of how to book, they were so impressed with our pictures and location for visits to Florence and Siena.

Dear Heather, thank you for your review. It was lovely to speak with you both, I am glad that you found that the apartment well appointed and comfortable. Very interesting about the train station at Poggibonsi with its free parking, we normally use Certaldo. But I will now use Poggibonsi !! Thank you again and I hope to see you again in the future. Best wishes Mike
The views from the apartment are absolutely stunning. The apartment itself is situated in a remote location within a number of very nicely renovated farm buildings. We were only 2 people and found the space ok but we are sure 4 people would find it a little cramped in terms of the actual living space although the bedrooms were fine and the bed we used was very comfortable.
The central location was perfect for visiting Siena, Volterra, Florence, Pisa and Lucca - all of them definitely worth a visit.
The only downside we experienced was a long (over 1km) and very slow (5mph) journey along a farm-track littered with massive potholes along the entire length from the main road to the property.
The owner was excellent with communication, directions etc. and told us that the road was due for its "annual service". I think we were probably unlucky in that we did have a couple of pretty hefty thunderstorms which definitely did not help the condition of the road afterwards.
Dear Peter,
Thank you for your review. I am so glad to read your comments that the central location was perfect for visiting Siena, Volterra, Florence, Pisa and that the apartment views were absolutely stunning!
I note that you thought that the apartment was little small for 4 people. I was surprised to hear this as in the 10 years that we have owned the apartment this issue have never been raised and indeed guests have commented that apartment has provided more than adequate space.
With regards to the road, a tree logging company had damaged the road causing the annual maintenance of the road to be delayed.
Once again thank you for your kind comments and I am very happy that you both had a lovely time. I very much look forward to seeing you again in the future.
Best Wishes,
Mike

Wonderful Location and Apartment
We have just had the most wonderful time in Mike's apartment. It's along a dusty track (a car is most certainly needed). It's literally in the middle of the countryside, with the most incredible views (if you try, you can just about make out the odd car in the distance), very, very peaceful.
The apartment was exceptionally clean, everything worked beautifully. The rooms are delightful with very comfortable beds. The kitchen was well thought out with every appliance we could possibly need. Again stunning views from every window. The terrace was a delight to use.
Despite the complex having a number of apartments, even in the middle of August it was nowhere near full capacity. Therefore the pool area was deserted most of the time - with the odd person having a dip alongside us now and again. The pool was clean and very well maintained.
Mike was very helpful. We needed a doctor on the Italian's version of a bank holiday and he helped guide us in the right direction. We also had a power outrage one day when using the oven and the air con being on - he very quickly pointed us in the right direction. To be fair to him, all the information was in the folder that was left but he helped us none the less. The information about the apartment and the area was by far the most helpful we have had and found them invaluable. Many thanks Mike for a wonderful stay and all your help.

Read the fine details and ask questions.
My wife and I were on a three week trip of Italy, wanting to stay in the Tuscany area for one week. Most hotels and B&B do not have bath tubs or clothes washing facilities. Although this unit was not in the location I desired, the advertisement indicated an electric washer/dryer and a tub. ( My wife prefers to bath rather than shower)
Upon arrival I contacted the property owner and asked the location pf the electric dryer............he indicated that there was a drying rack located outside. I asked about the electric dryer and did not receive an answer.
OK, that evening I attempted to draw a bath for my wife. I looked for the taps and tub spout, not located anywhere.
I contacted the owner again, his response ( I prefer to shower in the morning using the hand held shower) That might work for him but it was not what I expected. Using the hand held shower head takes about two hours to draw a bath.
If one is considering renting this property, one should be aware that there is a 2 1/2 KM road (gravel) into the property that is not well kept. One should have a truck or SUV to travel this road.
The owner does live on site and this property is poorly maintained.

Dennis, thank you for your review.
When you vacated my home for the last time, unbelievably, you left my home unlocked and unsecured with the front door open and the front door keys hanging next to the front door - open to everyone!!
You left the lights on inside the apartment.
You left trash inside, rubbish bag, plastic bottles & cans inside the apartment.
A foldable chair was left precariously on the veranda wall that could have easily been blown onto my neighbours below, it was dangerous.
You have shown a total lack of respect for my home!!
In the 25+ years of renting my Italian home I have never encountered this situation before and had this much difficulty in contacting a guest, it didn't matter what method of communication I used, from sending pdf apartments and travel guides, to key information emails, to WhatsApp & VRBO messaging there was very little acknowledgment, not even out of courtesy.
Concerning the clothes dryer, I contacted you and kindly said that I only have a clothes air dryer that you hang clothes on as the hot climate allows clothes to dry very quickly. Also I did indicate that I don’t have a electric washer/dryer and it doesn’t state that we have an electric washer/dryer in my advert. The bath had been converted into a shower, but still could be used as a bath but not in the usual way, I concede this should have been made clearer. I will definitely rectify this for future guests so that bath can be filled in the normal way.
Many rural properties in Tuscany can only be serviced by a white gravel road (“Strade Bianche”) and local regulations require this type of road, our road is very well maintained. A recent guest had commented to me how good the road was to reach my home and that the views are stunning.
My home is very well maintained, my housekeeper checks everything and it is very clean, this is reflected in my 5 star reviews!!
Best wishes,
Mike

5* Tuscan heaven.
Couldn’t get home quick enough to write a review of La Vista Grande because it is so well deserved!! We were a party of two couples who have just returned from an amazing 2 weeks of heaven, spent in a beautiful apartment with the best views we have ever experienced from a holiday home, and we have been fortunate to have been on many. The bedrooms were big and both had en-suites and air con which was so welcome on the hot nights. During our stay I had to contact Mike due to one of the air con units not working but he responded so promptly that we were able to resolve the problem within half an hour. The weather was very hot throughout out stay but the small apartment complex is positioned on a hill and with La Vista Grande being on the first floor we had a lovely breeze flowing through the apartment. The well maintained pool also benefitted from the breeze too. We spent many an afternoon sitting by the pool reading, swimming and just relaxing taking in the beautiful Tuscan views. There were only ever a few other people in the pool at any one time, and often we had it to ourselves.
Our garden allowed us privacy and shade which was an important factor for us when we booked the apartment. I think we had the best views of any of the apartments because we had a distant view of the beautiful medieval town of Volterra which lit up at night.
La Vista Grande was perfectly located for visits to Pisa, Siena, Lucca, San Gigimiano, Volterra and Florence. There were so many more local towns to explore too.
We would love to return to La Vista Grande and will certainly be recommending it our families and friends. What a treat they have in store!!!

It’s very heartening to have such lovely feedback, the views indeed are splendid, far reaching and I often I can sit in the evening, for what seems like hours, just drinking up the views ( of course with the obligatory glass of wine😊�). The location is ideal for sighting seeing with San Gimignano and Volterra close by. I do hope you return in the future.

Toskana wie man sie sich erträumt
Die Ferienwohnung war mit allem ausgestattet, was man benötigt, um sich rundum wohlzufühlen. Der Pool ist groß genug um darin zu schwimmen. Die Aussicht auf Volterra und das Hügelland ist bei jedem Wetter wunderbar. Die Zufahrt über einen Schotterweg ist mit jedem normalen Auto möglich. Wir haben den Urlaub dort sehr genossen.

Sehr entspannter Urlaub in Gambassi Terme
Das Appartment von Mike auf der Podere Collinella ist sehr nett eingerichtet und eine echte Wohlfühl-Location für einen Toskana-Urlaub. Es liegt inmitten einer traumhaften typisch toskanischen Landschaft sehr ruhig und abgeschieden. Vorteil dabei: Traumhaftes 360 Grad-Panorama, und durch die Lage auf der Hügelkuppe abends/nachts kühlende Winde die es zumindest uns Mitte Juni auch bei hohen Tagestemperaturen ermöglichten, ohne die (in beiden Schlafzimmern vorhandene) Klimaanlage zu schlafen.
Ein Auto ist aber unabdingbar und Einkaufslisten, sollten gut überlegt sein, da die Fahrt über die 3 km gravel road / unbefestigte Straße runter zur Landstraße nichts ist, was man nur wegen ein paar vergessenen Eiern nochmal machen will. Dafür hat man eine sehr ruhige Lage und ist trotzdem schnell in Montaione, Volterra und San Gimignano. Auch Siena und Florenz sind gut zu erreichen (je ca 1h Fahrt).
Das Anwesen ist äußerst gepflegt und liebevoll angelegt. Der Pool ist schön groß und somit auch ausreichend, wenn mehrere Familien dort baden (Die Anlage hat 8 Appartments).
Das Appartment ist sehr gemütlich und ländlich/stilvoll eingerichtet und die Küche bietet alles, was man zum Kochen und Essen braucht. Kaffeekapseln, Öl, Essig, Salz, Pfeffer und einige andere Gewürze sind vor Ort und können benutzt werden, wenn man entsprechend eben auch etwas da lässt....
Zudem gibt es am ersten Tag ein Welcome Pack, was zumindest ein erstes Frühstück ohne vorherigen Einkauf ermöglicht. Der Supermarkt in Montaione (10 km) hat auch Sonntag vormittags geöffnet, so dass man sich bei langer Anfahrt an einem Samstag keinen Stress machen muss, noch Wochenendvorräte zu kaufen oder mitzubringen.
Gutes Wifi und TV mit Netflix und Amazon prime sorgen dafür, dass auch Teenager sich nicht zu einsam/abgeschnitten fühlen....
Wir haben den Sitzplatz mit der Aussicht und Grill sehr genossen.
Mike hat eine umfassende Beschreibung bezüglich der Wohnung und auch viele Tipps zur Umgebung (Restaurantempfehlungen etc).
Rundum eine tolle Ferienunterkunft für eine Familie oder zwei Paare - was durch die getrennten Schlafzimmer mit separaten Bädern auch gut funktioniert.
Tipp für die Anfahrt: unbedingt nach Mikes Beschreibung fahren - nicht nach Auto-Navi, welches die Adresse in der Regel nicht kennt. Wenn man dann den Abzweig von der Landstraße zur Anlage als Wegpunkt einmal speichert, ist es ab da spielend einfach....
Bei Fragen ist Mike auch sehr gut zu erreichen.

Liebe Sandra, vielen Dank für die schöne Bewertung. Ich freue mich sehr, dass Sie die Wohnung gut ausgestattet vorgefunden haben, der Pool ist wirklich toll, die bunten Lichter, die nachts aufleuchten, sind fantastisch! Ich hoffe, dass du eines Tages wiederkommst 😊
Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
Mike
