We loved our time here!! As a large family group, we still had room to spread out comfortably and enjoy our closeness. As an elegant space, it still felt very homey. Lorenzo, Mario, and Andrea all helped us enormously, especially when we hit some snags in our plans. They were unfailingly polite and went out of their way to take care of things. The setting and grounds were gorgeous, even better than expected. It’s very out-of-the-way, which is one reason I chose it, so extremely quiet - more than one person described it as “idyllic”!

This property was reserved for a vacation for a family of eight. It was the first trip taken since my father, the patriarch of the family, had passed away. Our youngest son is stationed in Italy and we looked upon this adventure as a trip of a lifetime, being the first venture overseas for many of our group. Being all together on one property was important to us and I must say that this property exceeded our expectations. The property owner, Lorenzo, and property manager, Mario, were wonderful. I didn’t feel rushed through the arrival process, which ensured we were comfortable and not left to figure things out with no guidance. The villa itself was amazing and we were grateful for the history provided for the property. The grounds afforded privacy. Rooms were spacious. Bathrooms were plentiful. The kitchen is small, but I didn’t go to Florence to cook. The views were breathtaking. It was a short walk to a bus to many amusements - or whatever we wanted to do! I highly recommend the bespoke dinner prepared by Lorenzo’s chef - in our case, his wife. If offered, I recommend the carrot side dish. We also reserved tours led by a private guide reserved through Andrea Bassetti, a personal concierge. Our guide was Marco, who had extensive knowledge of art and steered us through the days. Our time in Florence was enhanced, not only by the amazing villa in which we stayed, but also by the attention we received from Lorenzo and team.

This was a wonderful home. Spacious and elegant, full of Italian charm. Mario the manager was so charming and helpful. You were a short taxi ride to the center of Florence. It was a great place for our large family to visit around Tuscany yet come back to cook and hangout. Superior!

We absolutely loved our stay at the Villa Acacia. Lorenzo was the perfect host; professional, quickly responded to our questions, and very friendly. We highly recommend a custom bespoke Italian dinner at the Villa as well as a welcome dinner. Many thanks to the properties Caretaker, Mario. He took us to the supermarket, not once but twice, and shopped the isles with us. He has a very good command of the English language. And many thanks to the concierge, Andrea. He arranged for our transport to and from Rome and Florence. He also arranged for our day trip to Siena and Chianti, where we had a tour of a winery with a lovely lunch/wine-tasting on the terrace overlooking a majestic view. The villa is rich with old world charm. It is situated on the hills, overlooking Florence city center. The Villa is very well-maintained both inside and outside. The nearby bus was not running while we were there, but we had no problems getting a taxi within 10 minutes. Five ⭐️

This was just an awesome Holiday Home and everything was perfect! Mario the caretaker was there to great us to go over everything and even drove us to the local grocery store so we could get items in the house, as we did breakfast daily there, and even cooked one night. The first night we worked with Lorenzo the owner who as we were hoping to arrange to have a cook, as our group of 8 were arriving at different times, and thought it would be easier to do dinner at the villa. The food was absolutely amazing, one of the best meals we had. It included zucchini pie, lasagna, chocolate cake, fresh apricots water and wine! There is also a concierge available, named Andrea - the most awesome individual to work with. He arranged all our transfers from the Florence airport and train station for both departure and return. We also used him to arrange some trips for us. They included lunch/wine tasting in the Tuscany region, a boat excursion to Cinque Terre, visits to Lucca, Pisa, Siena and San Gimignano. I highly recommend you take advantage of his services and also for the tours ask if he can get Francesca as your drive, she is an absolute delight. We did not have a car and easy to get a taxi or Uber to take us into Florence for dinner and shopping, which is not more than 10 - 15 minutes to city center. The villa is just great, as all the bedrooms are air conditioned, and more than enough bathrooms and bedrooms for our two families. Also the views from the villa were spectacular.

My family and I had the pleasure of staying here for a week and we had the most marvelous time. Lorenzo was very easy to work with and was very communicative. As he promised, Mario greeted us upon arrival at the villa and gave us a very thorough tour and even sold us bus tickets to help get us started!! I requested that a few items be in the villa and Mario purchased exactly what we needed and wanted. The villa is spacious and very comfortable. The pool is very near the villa and was exactly what the four of us needed after fun filled days of walking around and exploring. In addition to the amazing accommodations and spectacular service, Andrea, the concierge, made our trip one to remember. He made all of our dinner reservations, organized for us to be picked from the train station (we started in Rome), arranged for day trips to Lucca, Pisa and Siena (all of which I highly recommend), reserved a time for me and my daughter to have a cooking class with Sandra and helped us get to our next location. This was my first time in Florence so I had A LOT of questions and he responded quickly and kindly to all of my emails. The team of Lorenzo, Mario and Andrea can not be beat!! If you are in Florence staying here and meeting these incredible people is a must!

Good location, short bus ride to city center. Host incredibly responsive and set us up with a house caretaker, a concierge for tours, drivers, etc. A full service experience. House is beautiful with a great view of the city from poolside.

Fantastic!!!! From the 1st day we contacted Lorenzo to the last night of our stay everything was perfect!!!. The house and its location were great, with amazing views of Florence. Andrea the concierge was such a huge help arraigning day trips for us and transportation. Everything went smooth and easy. Mario, that greeted us at the house couldn't have been nicer, he even drove us to the supermarket and helped us find all the supplies we needed for the house. Lorenzo had suggested having a Chef cook us a meal at the house. We chose our last night for this meal, little did we know that Lorenzo himself would be helping the Chef and serving us our dinner. The food was AMAZING and the service was impeccable!! Recommend this Villa highly and would return!!!
