Comentarios de los Huéspedes para Villa Vertine

The villa was lovely and each of the 5 bedrooms and baths were charming and supplied with luxury linens and toiletries. The kitchen was well equipped and the gathering areas, terrace and pool most attractive and well maintained. Caterina, the house manager, came by every day and took us grocery shopping twice since the COOPs( grocery stores) were hidden away frequently without parking nearby. Mid week she and her crew changed out all the linens and made sure we had what we needed. On arrival she had orange juice and Prosecco at hand to welcome us. She was a font of all information including helping us find CNN on the TV. We spent our days traveling easily to Siena, Florence, Radda, Greve, and San Giminango. The grounds of the villa were fragrant with lavender and rosemary and there were pots of thyme and basil for our culinary needs. The tiny town of Vertine was quaintly charming and the nearby town of Gaiole had good shopping for wine, cheese and meat. While there were only 5 of us the house would have been just as suitable for 5 couples. The five ladies from America had a wonderful week.

Tutto bene?
A fabulous villa – with an aftertaste.
Beautiful setting. Spacious rooms. Comfortable beds. Extensive kitchen equipment.
Very good and relaxing for groups of family and friends, but …

Access is difficult
Remote setting, difficult to reach. - You are warned in the description that the access is not suitable for a minivan or minibus. We were travelling in a BMW X5 and only just fitted through the very narrow streets of Vertine by clapping in the wing mirrors.

The pool
The remote setting seems to make it difficult for a pool service too! So the pool is not being looked after properly. During our stay we informed the caretaker, but nothing much changed, except our swimwear turned yellow and our eyes stung. So we could not use the pool as often as we would have liked. We told the owner that in all the other houses we stayed in over the last ten years the quality and cleanliness of the water was checked daily. Hopefully water quality will improve for future guests.

Big brother
We felt that we were being watched. Cleaners come to the house on Wednesdays and Saturdays, which is very helpful. But the caretaker comes by daily to ask “tutto bene?” just to check for the owner that everything is in order. We felt this was intrusive and our patience grew thin when friends of ours visited for a drink and were questioned whether they were also staying at the villa.

Deposit
Make sure you check the house for pre-existing damage. Damages will be fully deducted from your deposit. This may prove expensive. In our case: A stain on the kitchen table – we could not know because the table was covered with a cloth when we arrived.

High quality comes at a price … but if this price includes a badly maintained pool and a big brother feeling, then our conclusion is : tutto not bene! 

Up to you to decide.

Better than the pictures! The villa was spotless with a well stocked kitchen and beautiful modern bathrooms. The views were exceptional, the outdoor spaces and pool area were comfortable and well landscaped and we were fortunate to be there when everything was in full bloom. Our hostess Caterina could not have been more accommodating and made us a delicious dinner one evening. Truly a week to remember. One minor downside was no clothes dryer.
