Nous sommes venu la première semaine du mois d’août 2021, nous étions deux familles avec des adolescents. Tout d’abord quel accueil d’Enzo et de Cristina, deux gens sympathiques, accueillants et totalement dévoué aux bien être de leurs résidents, de personnes extraordinaires. Ils ont tout fait pour que notre séjour se passe au mieux et nous ont gâté de plein de petites attentions. L’intérieur de la maison est extraordinaire très propre très beau très fonctionnel et très spacieux. L’extérieur est à couper le souffle temps par le paysage que par la qualité des équipements mise à disposition ainsi que des aménagements divers. Merci encore sincèrement à vous Enzo et Cristinat, nous reviendrons passé un fabuleux séjour dans votre magnifique domaine prochainement. Nous recommandons vivement cet endroit ! Clem’s and bubu’s families

12 of us stayed in this beautiful villa for a week in September! All the rooms were perfectly sized, and the pool area was great. Perfectly located with easy access to San Giminiano, Florence & Pisa, as well as local supermarkets in Certaldo. Enzo was also a great & helpful host who answered all of our questions very quickly. We would be so happy to stay in Villa Belsole again!

From the moment we arrived, the property, the welcome and the service we received when requested was everything we could have wanted and more. A beautiful property, each bedroom just exquisitely decorated all en-suite. We had a chef on two evenings, absolutely delicious Tuscan food and they also made a special effort with a birthday cake for one of the guests, nothing was a problem. The pool and gardens are amazing, you will never get bored of the views. Pool table and table tennis for the teenagers also. The town of Certaldo is lovely with a charming old town in the centre, very picturesque. Thank you to Enzo for being on hand and making our stay so beautiful. 100% worth a stay.

We stayed at the villa for 7 nights in August 2020. The villa itself is stunning, really elegant, the pool area is extremely clean and usable all day long. Nice outdoor shower. Inside everything is clean and tidy, well decorated and is really well appointed. Internet was fast two large TVs one had a home cinema room. We have had a number of stays on this platform in Dubai, USA, France and really this one was excellent. But you know what made it great - Enzo. He’s the landlord. He met us at 1am in the morning for checkin, he’d filled the fridge with pasta, drinks for the kids, sweets and breakfasts for our first morning. My wife lost her handbag in Florence and Enzo met us with a new set of keys. The country is lovely, the villa is great, but it’s people that make all the difference. A lovely chap - so you won’t go wrong. Definitely book up.

Villa Besole is truly exceptional! Enzo & Cristina were the best hosts and thought of every detail to make for an amazing birthday for myself and my 17 guests. We were a party of 8 couples and my 82 year old mother-in-law and older sister. I was delayed 6 hours due to issues with my connecting flight and Enzo & Cristina welcomed the guests that arrived earlier with the best hospitality and warmth. We had several dinners hosted at the home with Enzo’s chef which were delicious. We enjoyed the pool, many meals on the patio & the wine was always plentiful. The house was equipped with all the comforts of home. My birthday was phenomenal because Enzo & Cristina managed all the details to perfection. My family and friends could not get enough of the views from the house. We look forward to returning with our children. Certaldo is a beautiful town with great amenities & sites. We enjoyed visiting a local castle with a wine tasting and a local organic farm/winery where we enjoyed a delectable 12 course dinner with wine. In summary, an epic experience!!

A beautiful place to relax. The scenery is breathtaking. It’s a very large, beautiful villa with large bedrooms, and living areas. It’s a bit off the beaten path but we had no problem getting out and about. Enzo and Christine are great hosts. We fired off many emails prior to arrival with various requests and questions. Enzo replied promptly every time and accommodated every request and replied patiently to every question. The only suprise we had was at the end of the stay. The electricity cost was much higher than we expected. We were out a lot, turned out lights, didn’t use the air conditioning, and did not heat the pool so we were surprised. Other than that it was a great week.

17 of our family stayed here in Celebration of my mom’s 80th. Located close to a town for groceries and supplies as needed. The pool and the views are undescribable. We loved the family room dining room combination where we could relax and commune as a family.

Sehr gute Lage, mit fantastischem Panoramablick, geräumig, gut ausgestattet, Bäder etwas in die Jahre gekommen, Freundlicher Gastgeber, der sehr schnell auf Probleme reagiert hat, Gute Einkaufsmöglichkeit in der Nähe,

This is a beautiful property- the photos, while beautiful, really do not do justice to the gorgeous view and well-maintained property. Enzo and Christina are lovely and very helpful, and the villa was just perfect for the 6 couples and one child in our group. Each bedroom was comfortable and had it's own bathroom, and the common areas were large and comfortable. The pool was lovely and refreshing. Five stars!

We just returned back to Washington DC from our trip to Italy. The biggest portion of the trip was our week in Tuscany, where we stayed at Villa Belsole. We had a group of 14....7 adults, and 7 children (youngest was 10, but most are high school and college aged). We looked through countless listings on VRBO and through our travel agent, and kept coming back to this property because of the location, as well as 9 bedrooms with private baths. The price was very reasonable in comparison to others. We booked it, figuring we might find out some shortcomings when we got there, but deal with it. WOW......we were so pleasantly surprised and happy. The view is spectacular....I told Enzo and Christina they should sell that feature even more on the site. When I saw San Gimignano in the distance, my jaw dropped. Enzo and Christina were welcoming and friendly....great hosts! They supply wine that is good and very reasonable. The rooms and bathrooms were large, and the ladies said the hair dryers worked great! The kitchen could handle us, and the room off the kitchen was fantastic. The villa is very quiet....you can never tell if others are awake and speaking downstairs. The pool was great, and the shaded canopy was our first choice hang out spot....critical in the summer.Although we were not at the doorstep of the major Tuscan towns, they were all an easy (and beautiful) ride away. We took the train from Certaldo into Florence (train station 6-7 minutes away).This villa so exceeded our expectations.....I miss that view!! If we ever return, we will not even look at another listing...we will contact Enzo and figure when it is free. Thank you Enzo and Christina for making this villa a place we will talk about for years to come.

Beautiful House-Villa with up to date spacious rooms with a beautiful vista on the top of a hill overlooking a valley and in the distance hills and even a distant glance to San Gimignano. The Villa had a lovely heated large pool with a similar awesome view of the area. Appreciated the multiple bedrooms with each a private bathroom with shower. A truly luxury home. A Great Value except for the the fact the web site did not match up with the extra charges which were added on for example water, gas, electricity. True the web site retrospectively did mention extra for Air conditioning which of course a must as well as heated pool. Also, we were suprised by the demand for the extra charges in cash Euros instead of bank transfer as listed in the Web site. Eleanora and Angela who cooked for us for the week for many meals and all breakfasts were lovely people with kind hearts and excellent cooks- another highlight of the experience. I did not mind paying the owners for their services in cash Euros. Enzo and Christina who were the owners were very charming, gracious, and helpful.

Our group of 10 stayed very comfortably at Villa Belsole for six nights. The rooms were comfortable and each room had its own bathroom. The location is as idyllic as one can imagine. The view is a treat for the eyes and the owners of the villa were the most wonderful hosts. When we arrived, they had set up a chef's Tuscan Steak dinner for our group. It was delicious and a nice change of pace from eating at restaurants. Dinner was set up in the room that is all glass overlooking the beautiful rolling hills of the Tuscan countryside. Upon our arrival, Enzo and Cristina had also kindly done some groceries for us so we could have breakfast the next morning, since they knew we were arriving late and it was holiday. Throughout the week, they were available as needed. Enzo even took one of our boys to play tennis and played ping pong with the kids one night at the villa. The location of the villa was perfect. It took us one hour to get to Florence and one hour to get to Pisa. San Gimignano, Volterra, and Siena were a shorter drive. The villa was very close to the beautiful medieval town of Certaldo. We had a wonderful lunch in Certaldo overlooking the Tuscan countryside. We also visited the nearby Fattoria Il Piano for a wine tasting. There is so much to see and enjoy in this area, we look forward to returning. When we do, we will most definitely stay at the Villa Belsole.

Se avete in mente una cartolina della campagna toscana più bella e sognate di vivere quelle atmosfere magiche, Villa Belsole è il posto che fa per voi. La villa domina l’intera vallata, è assolata dall’alba al tramonto e gode di un panorama mozzafiato. Senza ombra di dubbio la più bella e impressionante proprietà della zona. La villa è grandissima, fornita di tutto, curatissima e molto accogliente. La veranda e la terrazza ne esaltano le caratteristiche. Il proprietario Enzo Belsole è un vero signore e un’ottima persona, ci ha fatto sentire subito a casa e ha fatto di tutto per rendere il nostro soggiorno incantevole. Consigliatissimo!!!

We rented the Villa Belsole for a first time visit to Tuscany. The location was outstanding. It was only a short drive to a shopping center and the town of Certaldo. We visited the towns of San Gimignano, Siena, Volterra, Florence and Pisa. All of the towns were wonderful and not far from the Villa. The central location was amazing. The Villa was very clean and well appointed. There were 10 people in our party and the Villa was so large we had space for private time and plenty of space for gathering. The decor was beautiful and Tuscan inspired. We all enjoyed the pool. It was so wonderful to cool off after a long day of touring the country side. I cannot say enough about Christina and Enzo. They were so welcoming. We felt at home immediately. They truly wanted us to enjoy the Villa and Tuscany. We certainly did! We hired a chef to cook a meal for us at the Villa and enjoyed it very much. Cristina can help you arrange for the chef. Her English is excellent. It took me several months to decide which Villa to rent. There are many available and sometimes it is overwhelming. I was so pleased with my choice, I would definitely rent this home again. I recommend it highly. Don’t wait too long. It books up fast!

This was a wonderful place to stay and relax. It was also great as a home base as we had not been to the Tuscan region and wanted to explore. It was pretty close to all that we wanted to see. The weather was perfect at 78 degrees during the day (October). The kitchen along with all the rooms were surprisingly large and there was enough bathrooms for the 15 of us staying there! My only suggestion would be to bring bug spray as the mosquitos were also loving the villa!

We stayed at Villa Belsole with a group of 13. The owners Enzo and Cristina were very friendly and helpful getting us settled. Cristina speaks English very well. Spacious rooms and clean bathrooms. Mattresses on the firm side. The kitchen is well equipped and outdoor grilling was a regular occurrence. The heated pool is in absolutely pristine condition. The grounds were immaculate . The dining room is huge and the table accommodates 14+, outdoor table same. We washed cloths, dishes, ironed and carried on as if we lived there full time. CO-OP supermarket is 10 minutes away and has anything you'd need and extremely well stocked. Enzo provides good wines and coffee in the villa at a very reasonable cost. We had 7 cars parked with room to spare. WE WILL RETURN AGAIN.

This place is spectacular. The house is clean, well furnished, updated baths and kitchen, pool, spectacular views, quiet and secluded yet close to so much of what Tuscany has to offer! Enzo and Cristina are wonderful hosts, caring for details but not intruding (we even convinced them to join us for dinner one evening and it was one of the great memories of our trip)! The outdoor BBQ and wood-fired pizza oven were an unexpected bonus and the pool was refreshing -- thanks to surprisingly warm October weather. Probably the highlight, though, was being so close to San Gimignano, Siena, Florence, Volterra, Assisi, Lucca/Piza, and a number of other glorious Tuscan treasures. We never drove more than 40 minutes (except Lucca) and were continually delighted. In fact, Certaldo Alto, within 8 minutes of the Villa, was charming, rich with history and provided some good shopping for local crafts. Do not hesitate to bring a bigger group to this wonderful property for an event or -- like us -- just a perfect central gathering place to enjoy Tuscany!
