There are not enough words to express how special Villa Florence really is. That is due in great part to the spectacular hosts, Angela & Simone. They not only fulfill your needs, but they anticipate them. The property is stunning -- from the beautifully landscaped garden to the gorgeous and refreshing pool and the hottub (surprisingly welcome after a hot day of traveling). The dinners prepared by Angela are unmatched in all of Italy; the pizzas prepared by Simone were a close second. There is so much to see in the area, and Simone & Angela are incredible at providing suggestions and assistance. The Villa itself is beautifully decorated, fully furnished with everything you could need, and impeccably maintained. No matter your circumstances (single traveler, couple, family), you cannot go wrong with Villa Florence and its amazing owners.

This property and its hosts were beyond perfect for our trip! The apartment was comfortable with plenty of space. Our kids loved the pool and gardens. The hosts are so warm and welcoming and helpful. We did dinner in the garden our first night and it was the best food of the entire trip. Angela helped us arrange everything we asked about and everything she set up exceeded all expectations. We hope to come back some day for a longer stay!

We had the best time at the Casa Galeotti, mostly because of Angela and Simone’s outstanding hospitality. Not only are both talented, they are also very kind and hard working so our vacation felt like 10 stars! Service is discreet but they still manage to catch small details that they implement right away. The large apartment accommodated our family of 4 easily. Very tasteful decor everywhere. It had everything you need, and many other services were flawlessly organized. While we were there the second apartment was rented to a group of 6 but we hardly ever saw or heard them. We enjoyed many wonderful hours at the pool with the kids. We travel a lot and have high expectations but A. and S. are offering a unique service much better than any luxury hotel or rental house. They are fine concierges in all aspects and after we were spending time in the surrounding Tuscan cities we came back to a full serviced home with fantastic food and ambiente. We did the excellent Carrara marble tour and many other things.They had ready to go plans for all locations. Food at Angela’s and Simone’s place is fantastic, of very high quality and always beautifully and creatively arranged. Angela is a very talented artist. Loved her pottery! Simone taught our family how to make the best pizza while we had alot of fun. We will never forget the relaxing moments at the breakfast table enjoying coffee at the pool watching the beautiful garden with all the birds and butterflies. Grazie Angela+Simone

We stayed 5 nights with Simone and Angela and had a wonderful experience. The property is beautiful and the garden is stunningly well-kept. The detail in the garden was some of the best we’ve seen in Italy. The hosts live within the property but the rental units are very quiet and private. The chef hosts set up a WhatsApp chat to stay in touch during the stay mostly to communicate menus and planned activities, which was nice and not overbearing. The private chef inspired meals were a nice touch by having dinner by the pool and outdoor fireplace (prices vary by dish but reasonable for the quality of the food and service). We had dinner with them 4 of 5 nights and each day we were offered a different menu including fresh seafood or pasta. The welcome basket stocked with milk, eggs, bread, and fresh fruit/coffee/tea was a really nice touch. The town is quaint and very walkable with a couple of interesting local bars and restaurants with excellent food. Beach and marble tours are nearby. We made a few local trips to Lucca and other nearby towns before our next stays in Florence and Volterra. The apartment itself was delightful and well appointed. Wifi worked well and the air conditioning was pretty powerful compared to some other experiences in Italy. We were there during a week where the other unit was not occupied so we had the pool and gardens to ourselves. We loved the outdoor spaces for sure. Renting a car and parking securely in the lot was easy. Overall, I would definitely recommend this unique experience and the warmth of the hosts Simone and Angela. It was like staying in our own private boutique hotel.

Wow! What an incredible stay we have had with Simone and Angela. All the communication prior to our stay was excellent and really helpful. When we arrived they had prepared our Appartment and the grounds of the property beautifully and we were blown by with the beautiful garden and the stunning pool. The meals they prepared for us were exceptional- the best lasagne, roast chicken and mussels we have ever had! The kitchen where the magic happens is just unbelievable- you have to see it to believe it! I could have spent all day just watching Angela cook and chat away! I would highly recommend staying here if you want to experience a truly unique and very special Italian stay. Simone and Angela are the perfect hosts and we will definitely be back! Thank you for looking after us so well. X

We had an wonderhul vacation. Everyting were amasing- the location, pool, the food- everything. And the host- Angela and Simone is the most wonderful peoble, that will do anything to make it to one of the most amazing vacations ever had...😊 We can highly recommend this to all you guys that are searching for indulgence and luxury in your vacation. Thanks Angela and Simone to make our vacation wonderful and unforgettable...

We had the most magical vacation at Casale Galeotti. We’ve been to Italy 3 times & this location & Villa was more beautiful than I’ve seen & stayed in before. My family and our two daughters stayed in one of the three-bedroom apartments. My husband‘s parents and my parents, both sets of grandparents stayed in the other three-bedroom apartment. This is the perfect set up for our families to spend two weeks together exploring Italy. I had wonderful communication with Angela prior to our arrival and upon our arrival she and Simone welcomed us around the beautiful property. The property is so so so beautiful, more beau in person than can show in the photos. The gardens, landscaping and beautiful flowers are meticulously maintained. The grounds are clean, beautifully designed and decorated. The pictures online do not do it justice, this place is absolutely stunning and beautiful everywhere you look. Angela and Simone prepared numerous meals for our whole family and we ate them in the garden and by the pool. We often had a large breakfast prepared for us or a large dinner for our family multiple times during our stay. They cooking from Angela and Simone if some of the best we’ve ever had. Everywhere you eat in Italy it is delicious their food tops anywhere we ate! This experience really made it easy to enjoy Italy, come back home & eat dinner and then get our kids to bed. We even did a pizza cooking class with Simone & then the moms did a special pampering cooking class with champagne with Angela in the gourmet kitchen. She also makes the most beautiful ceramic art that we loved shopping and now will treasure forever. Angela and Simone truly create a magical experience for their guests, every detail is taken care of, their kindness and generosity and they welcome you and you become part of their home and family. We loved getting to know them and we will absolutely come back to visit them because they are like family. I highly recommend staying here. The property is beautiful, the owners are beautiful, there are so many places you can go to nearby to explore Italy. Angela and Simone were so helpful at helping us navigate where to go, how to use the trains, all of the details. We had a vacation that we’ve been dreaming of for two years. We cannot wait to return and visit.

How many ways can you say perfection … we just spent 22 days in paradise May 28-June 19th at the Galeotti Casale in Camaoire, Italy and look forward to a return. Our hosts, owners Simone and Angela were beyond amazing, and their awe-inspiring property, their magnificent gardens and the delectable food they prepared were simply superb! My husband, sister, best friend and myself rented one of their two apartments for 22 days. We each had a private bedroom (ours with a 2nd private shower) that shared the kitchen, living room and bathroom. We also rented their second apartment (next to ours) for a family reunion with our cousin, her husband, and their two sons 17 and 13 for several days and had the perfect family reunion. The property is located in a quiet little borough with breathtaking views of the mountains. It is located in walking distance to the town with local markets, bakeries and a beautiful old church. Their lovely pool, a delightful respite. Our hosts made us feel like family and were so helpful and pleasant to deal with. Dinners were made extra special not just because of the outstanding meals but the most beautifully tables set out in the garden with flowing fountains and fire-place glowing. Simone’s pizza and breads were delicious. And they assisted in arranging private day trips with private drivers and guides from their property to Florence, Pisa, the Carrara marble mountains, Sienna, Collodi, the beach and more, each was spectacular and brilliant. We even enjoyed going into town to the local movie theatre and saw Top Gun Maverik (easy enough to follow) in Italian. From the moment I booked this vacation in April 2021, I communicated with Angela who made me feel assured she would do everything to make it a wonderful time… and she and Simone did just that. Meeting them and our stay was a blessing and one we hope to repeat in the future. I would highly recommend their property for your next get-a-way. Simply the Best!

Ein wundervoller Ort für Familien mit tollen, liebevollen Gastgebern, die toll kochen und bei der Erkundigung der Gegend mit besten Kontakten und Tips weiterhelfen. Vielen Dank und arreviderci!

We selfishly do not want to share this venue with anyone but you must experience this family and their world class villa and hospitality! We booked this villa for an 8 day stay. As experienced travelers with high standards, we were so thrilled with our vacation. Angela & Simone made our time with them so very special and we now consider them a part of our family. (We miss them!) Angela & Simone are the quintessential hosts. They make you feel as if you are at your BFF’s home. Each day after touring, I looked forward to hanging out in Angela’s kitchen with a glass of wine chatting about our daily adventures. while she whipped up an amazing meal! (Have I died and gone to heaven?) Venue: Their villa is better than an exclusive resort for many reasons: it is private, serene, gorgeous/meticulously manicured grounds, the beds, linens & furnishings were of high quality (like staying in an Italian home magazine photo shoot) the kitchen was outfitted for cooking, if you were so inclined. They even had a private place to park your car! I would not change one thing! Facilitating activities: we comunicated the activities we wanted to do and they made all of the arragements via their contacts. Simone went as far as to take us to the train station to ensure we got the right train tickets and understood how the train system works! Cooking: After a long day touring and sightseeing, Angela took care of everything, including menu design for a diverse age group. The quality of her meals was better than any restaurant on our trip. This luxury was so very convenient and the pricing was more than reasonable. Our sons 21st birthday occurred during our stay and we asked Angela to make a special dinner for us that night. Not only did she design a fabulous menu based on a few grunts of input from him, she went over and beyond by providing ballons, a special cake and a meal he was thrilled with. Thank you Angela and Simone for making our vacation so very special and memorable. We miss you and can’t wait to see you soon! Jen & Todd (et al)

Beautiful place, garden and pool. The hosts, Angela and Simone, are very kind and service minded and excellent chefs. The food is outstanding.

Angela and Simone are wonderful hosts and everything that has been said in previous reviews about them and the property is accurate - I don't feel I have anything to add! The photographs are genuine and truly represent this beautiful oasis tucked away off a busy street. I don't hesitate to recommend it.

From the first moment we felt at home in the paradises of Casale Galeotti. It's a jewel and actually we should not tell anybody about this secret treasure. Angela and Simon are interior designers in their second life. Just look at the pictures, it's all real. The pool and the service is great. They cooked a perfect private dinner for us in the beautiful garden - incredible. It's 15 min from the sea and you can have theountains as well for bIke/hike. We had a perfect holiday and will come back for sure.

Our family spent 1 week in this beautiful casale. Very clean appartment with wounderful garden and private parking place with great service. Angela and Simone did they best to make our stay perfect. The highlight of the days was our lovely dinner prepared by Angela, which was served for us in the garden. I highly recommend everyone this place!

This year we booked our vacation spontaneously. We tried to book two other houses at first, but they just didn’t confirm our booking. Fortunately we found Angela’s & Simone’s offer, which by the way was confirmed instantly. When we arrived, we firstly noticed how much effort has been put in this Villa. There are fountains and different places to take beautiful pictures everywhere, for example in front of the big pool (with very clean water!), in front of the two fireplaces, or in the wonderful garden with colorful plants and flowers. Our part of the Villa was beautifully decorated, had three balconies and even marble flooring! Angela’s and Simone’s hospitality knew no boundaries: Every single day a table was prepared for us by Simone, so that we could eat our own food in the marvelous garden! If you don’t want to cook: Simone’s kitchen skills are incredible. We have never tasted a better ‘pizza tonno’ , than the one Simone did for us! In the end Angela wanted us to try real Italian spaghetti and made us a gift: Angela’s super delicious Spaghetti Scampi!!! Angela and Simone, Thank you very much, you will stay in our hearts forever! The Velovov family

Wir haben unsere Urlaub sehr genossen. Das Haus und Garten ist traumhaft schön, gepflegt und sauber. Angela und Simone haben für uns sehr lecker gekocht. Wir haben beim Pool oder in Garten gegessen. Am Abend unsere Getränke vor der Kamin getrunken. Simone hat uns am Morgen Cappuccino gebracht und Angela uns Früchteteller am Pool serviert. Die Kinder (8,8,10,13 Jahre) haben es sehr genossen. Der Pool haben wir mit eine anderen Familie geteilt. Wir kommen gerne nochmals hier Ferien machen.

I came here with my wife and 10-month old, and this casa is "simply amazing." For a guy who truly appreciates service and attention to detail - they blew me away. We thought it might be too good to be accurate by the pictures and it was even better. The hosts Angela and Simone are so friendly, attentive to service, and detail - their ONE of a kind. Everything from the property to the home, to the linens, the beds, the food, the four balconies, all top-notch. They offered my wife and me the most romantic dinner our first evening - 3-course meal, outdoor canopy, fireplace at the end of the pool an unforgettable experience. If you are fortunate to come here, don't hesitate! Work with Angela ahead of time, and she'll put together a trip of a lifetime. Simeone's pizza place - incredible. We hope to come back and bring all our friends and family. Thank you!!

We just throught that the photos where like a dream ..but when we arrived .. no more worths where needed .. such a wonderfull place garden fresh flowers so clean every day . The living was so great decorated ceramic vases . Lovely rooms and nothing was to much private breakfast , lunch , dinner iT was amazing ! Also the pizzeria next to the house was very Nice . Never had such a beautiful house with such a wonderfull garden , pool , flowers , furniture . We cant wait to see you again !

We absolutely loved the attention to detail in every area of this property. The grounds are immaculate, restful and tranquil. The apartment is beautiful - from the fresh linens to the beautiful decor to the relaxing balconies. We truly did not want to leave. We visited with our 3 kids (ages 10-15) and we all had plenty of space and slept comfortably. Plus, the a/c was a nice break from the warm August heat. All the extra touches, including the fresh food left on arrival and the beautiful flowers just made our stay extra special. You can see the owners go well above and beyond throughout your stay to make the property sparkle. We also took advantage of eating at the pizzeria - we definitely recommend that! Our only regret is not staying longer. We definitely hope to come back!

Wir hatten das Glück, für 12 Nächte in dieser Ferienwohnung unseren Urlaub zu verbringen. Eigentlich haben wir alles noch schöner vorgefunden als in der Beschreibung, da man den Gesamteindruck der Gartenanlage in Bildern gar nicht vollständig wiedergeben kann. Es ist ein kleines Paradies mit wunderhübschen Sitzmöglichkeiten in denen man lesen, entspannen und Ruhe genießen kann. Alles ist super gepflegt und sehr sauber. Der Garten ist ein Gesamtkunstwerk in dem wir uns wie in einer Wellness Oase gefühlt haben. Die Vermieter Angela und Simone lernten wir als ganz herzliche und liebenswerte Gastgeber kennen. Sie leben in ihrem selbst erschaffenem Paradies ihren Traum und das haben wir als Gäste gespürt. Wir bekamen jeden Essenswunsch auf das Leckerste erfüllt und waren leider viel zu schnell gesättigt. Wir vermissen jetzt schon Simones leckere Pizzen, Focaccia mit Toskanischen Vorspeisen und das von Angela zubereitete Parmesanhuhn und Spaghetti mit Muscheln und Shrimps. Begeistert hat uns nicht nur das Essen, sondern auch die liebevolle Art, wie die Tische extra für uns eingedeckt wurden. Außerdem erhielten wir geniale Ausflugstipps von Angela und Simone mit kleinen romantischen Orten, bzw. authentischen Märkten. Die von anderen Gästen kritisierte viel befahrene Strasse war in der Wohnung kaum zu merken und im Gartenbereich gar nicht zu spüren. Es war ein rundum perfekter Urlaub (mit vielen Inspirationen für den eigenen Garten) an den wir noch lange denken. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder und freuen uns auch auf ein herzliches Wiedersehen mit Angela und Simone.

Angela e Simone….muito obrigada por tudo!!!A estadia excedeu muito as nossas expetativas. Não só a casa e jardins lindos, como a amabilidade e simpatia com que nos receberam. De longe a melhor pizza e pastas e feita por 2 chefes!! as crianças vieram encantadas e nós também! esperamos voltar em breve…beijos aos dois

What a wonderful place for a vacation! It felt like a home away from home. Beautiful scenery, great food, and even better service from Angela and Simone. They went above and beyond to provide great service for us, from setting up personal tour guides for visits to other areas of Italy, to cooking authentic Italian foods. If you are looking to truly experience Italy, this is the place to stay. From the moment we arrived, we felt apart of their family. Cannot wait to return! :)

There's no doubt it's a first class vacation getaway with impeccable facilities, attention to detail and a high level of personalized service. It's located in an ideal area which provides for relaxation around the pool a d gardens, hiking in the scenic mountains or visiting one of the nearby historical towns

Angela and Simone were outstanding host and very welcoming! The location is peaceful and beautiful nested in the rolling foothills of Tuscany. The backyard and pool area were absolutely great for the delicious dinners Simone prepared for us. WE will definitely return to visit again with our new Italian Family. Chris, Cindy, Jack & Betty

Was uns richtig gut gefallen hat: + die Freundlichkeit und Hilfsbereitschaft der Vermieter + die Außenanlage und der Pool, jeden Tag aus neue perfekt gepflegt + die ausgezeichnete Qualität der Pizza (die Pizzeria wird von den Vermietern im gleichen Haus von 17:00-22:00 Uhr betrieben) + die Größe der Wohnung Was uns nicht so gut gefallen hat: - die Ausstattung der Zimmer, es fehlen schlicht weg Schränke zum Verstauen der Kleidung (man lebt "aus dem Koffer") - die Küchenausstattung (keine Spülmaschine) und auch dort fehlenden Ablagemöglichkeiten (Vorräte) - die morgens/abends durchaus stark befahrene Straße vor dem Haus (Schlafzimmer zu Straße) - 1 Parkplatz pro Wohnung (wir haben uns mit Freunden mit eigenem PKW hier vor Ort getroffen, die logischerweise auch separat angereist sind) - das enthaltene Frühstück ist eine im Voraus enthaltene Kiste mit in Plastik verpackten Dingen (Croissants, Cornflakes, Milch, Schoko-Riegel) und umfangreiches frisches Obst - die versprochenen 2 Bäder sind in Wirklichkeit 1 Bad mit WC u. Badewanne + 1 reine Dusche in einem Schlafzimmer Also prinzipiell hat es uns gut gefallen, aber die Wohnung selbst könnte man mit wenig Aufwand noch deutlich nützlicher gestalten.

Angela and Simone the property owners made a fantastic job of making us welcome and making sure we had a wonderful time, the property itself is both very tasteful and very useable, Angela and Simone made the perfect hosts, they made us a banquet to celebrate my birthday - honestly above and beyond expectation ,it was a great evening tastefully presented in a perfect setting, the property and gardens are kept immaculate and the kindness ever present from the owners, we will be returning to this property and the wonderful Tuscany - huge thanks to Angela and Simone

Un superbe séjour. Le village est quelconque mais le bien proposé par Simone et Angela est superbe. L'accueil est de grande qualité et chaleureux. Camaiore est proche de tous les sites toscans à visiter. Pise, Sienne, Lucca, San Geminiano et bien sûre Florence. La maison offre en environnement digne d'un palace avec jardin et piscine privée. Les repas au bord de la piscine avec feu de cheminée est à recommander et inoubliable. Ce séjour de grande qualité, nous allons le proposer à nos amis. Les propriétaires, Angela et Simone se donnent beaucoup pour faire de votre séjour un moment inoubliable .

Empfehlenswert für Familien!
