Villa holiday rentals in Careggi, Florence

We had an amazing stay at Fabrizia's house such a lovely place in the most stunning setting. Situated in the hills just outside Florence the views from the terraces are breathtaking, gorgeous hillsides with Florence and the Duomo in the distance. A family of 4 we stayed for two weeks - the first week was very hot and we spent most of the time around the pool which is fantastic, large and beautifully clean with lovely gardens. The second week we spent more time in Florence, as we travelled without a car we went into Florence by bus, 9 mins downhill to bus stop, buses run every 20mins, get off at Ponte Rosso and 20 mins walk to the very centre/Duomo, you can also get a small shuttle bus but we preferred to walk through the little back streets to the centre. We would then usually get a taxi back approx E25 We shopped at the supermarket Esselunga which was a short bus ride and then asked at customer services for a taxi to take us back E20 Cecillia was so helpful Would love to stay again

We had a nice time, unfortunately it rained a lot and the gravel path to the house was covered with large puddles, which made it difficult to get to the house. The couch in the living room is outdated and unappetizing. Those who like it away from civilization and rustic are in good hands in the place.

Beautiful location on the outskirts of Florence. A little expensive to get into the city though. The apartment was very beautiful and as described. Some areas were more clean than others (specifically the bed headboards were a little dirty but probably just because it’s antique furniture). Overall a great place to stay though and Stefano is very easy to work with

We had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful villa in La Romola, just a short drive from Florence. I traveled with my husband, my son, and his girlfriend for a dear friend’s wedding nearby, and this home was the perfect place for us to gather and celebrate. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by our hosts, Gianfranca and her son Stefano. They truly went above and beyond to make us feel at home. Although we arrived late in the evening, they had thoughtfully left us some food, coffee, and a bottle of delicious local wine — such a kind and generous touch that we deeply appreciated after a long day of travel. The house itself was absolutely spotless, well-equipped, and filled with charm. The setting is quiet and peaceful, with beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. During the wedding festivities, we were even able to host a few friends at the villa, and it worked out perfectly. We can’t thank Gianfranca and Stefano enough for their hospitality!

The house is beautiful and perfectly equipped for a quality stay. The hosts were very responsive and friendly. We'll be happy to go back 😍

The dirt track leading up to the house is bumpy, but even if it had been 10 times worse, it would have been worth travelling along it to get to the house. The house is beautiful and spacious, the gardens and pool are amazing, but the views are out of this world. We've been very lucky to stay in many beautiful places around the world, over the years... this is the best. And to top it all off, Beatrice is a fantastic and friendly host. Providing us with samples of the family red wine and olive oil, as well as homemade bread, and great recommendations for places to eat. She even made sure we had wonderful weather :) We normally see all the sites around when we visit anywhere, but we only visited Pisa and Siena as the house was just too nice, not to take full advantage of. I worked in Tuscany many years ago and had always told the family how great it was... they were not disappointed.

Sabine's place was the perfect location for our visit to Florence. She was very accommodating and readily available to assist if needed. The views from the air bnb are incredible!

The flat was lovely: beautiful views, a lot of space, a good kitchen and a cozy garden. It is situated in a green and calm neighbourhood that is in my opinion one of the nicest in Florence. Matteo was available for questions and helped when necessary.

Our stay at Livia's place was excellent. The location was beautiful, everything was spotless, very spacious, beyond expectations. Livia is an extremely responsive host, who got back to us immediately when we had a question. There were five of us, and we were very comfortable and happy. We would definitely recommend this home.

Gorgeous rustic villa in the Tuscan Hills. Very useful that accommodation is across two houses and that each bedroom has its own bathroom. Pool was lovely. Kitchen had everything we needed. The only thing I would add is a sofa to slouch on for rainy nights or after walking the beautiful cities of Florence, Lucca and Pisa. Great laundry for long stay guests. Brenda was very responsive and accommodating.

Laura was an amazing host and made sure we knew all the details of the house and was very responsive if we had a question. The house itself is gorgeous and so are the surroundings. Highly recommend staying here as a home base in the Tuscany area! We visited many surrounding cities as well as a winery 40 minutes south. We would also recommend the restaurant Nuevo Ranch right done the street! Wonderful!

Our family vacation to Villa Berni in Bottai was phenomenal, and it all started with the accommodations. Alessandro's brother, Enrico, met us as planned and gave us a tour of the villa. As requested, they provided 2 cribs for our grandbabies. With 6 bdrms and 5 bath, each couple had their own space, and the babies had their own rooms too. It was conveniently located taking 20 minutes to the Florence city center and other local towns provided everything we needed. Our favorite part of the villa was the garden courtyard. We had morning coffees and evening cigars/drinks. A bonus was the tortoises which the babies loved finding each morning to feed them strawberries. Part of the family farm, Enrico gave us a tour of the olive grove and farm animals. He even staged eggs for the grands to collect. Our last night, we arranged pro chefs to prep an authentic Tuscany dinner. This kitchen met their needs, and we ate in the courtyard. We couldn't ask for more...Thanks for hosting us!

We had a really nice week together. The house is large, clean, everything has been thought of and close to the city. The pool was lovely and also kept well clean. It's a bit of the house, so it's nice that you bring drinks with you. It is great that there is a refrigerator, toilet and shower by the pool. There are plenty of beds by the pool and there are also umbrellas. Communication with the owner was also great. A quick and clear response every time

Villa Poggiostelle was an incredible house in the hills above Florence. It was a peaceful escape that is very private with incredible views. The house is so well set up - our children loved the badminton, soccer ball and table tennis set up as well as the incredible gym. The pool was gorgeous with wonderful views over the hills and valleys near Calenzano. The kitchen had everything you could need to cook. The bedrooms were beautifully decorated each with their own bathrooms with modern fixtures. The villa itself is about 25 minutes to a train station where we caught a train into Florence, 15 minutes to a nearby supermarket. It was easily accessible to all the highways and autostrade to explore Tuscany. A car is essential staying here though as it is a very hilly area in a secluded spot. Tatiana was a wonderful host who made our stay comfortable. She was always available to answer questions and even delivered a delicious surprise package of pastries one morning.

We had a wonderful stay at Antica Villa vicino Firenze. The villa is full of charm and character, with beautifully maintained grounds and a peaceful atmosphere that made it easy to relax. The rooms were spacious, clean, and tastefully decorated with authentic Tuscan touches. Our hosts were warm and welcoming, always ready to help with recommendations or anything we needed. The location was ideal—just a short drive to Florence, but far enough to enjoy the tranquility of the countryside. One of the highlights was the pool—the view from there is absolutely amazing, overlooking the rolling Tuscan hills. It was the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring. We especially loved the garden, the views, and the feeling of stepping back in time while still enjoying all the modern comforts. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet and authentic Tuscan experience close to Florence.

David’s place embodies elegance and tranquility. Beautiful interior with intricate touches. The backyard was huge and our pup enjoyed running around on it. It’s as described in the pictures. David was also a very kind host. Responsive to our questions and insightful when it came down to recommendations. Highly recommend to anyone considering booking!

The house and grounds were beautiful, it was serene and calm . Everything was neat and lots of amenities provided, hair dryer, pool towels. The cooking class was fantastic!!

Both Susi and our local host Giada could not have been more helpful. We arrived to find that Giada had suppled super food and wine, enough for a day. The wine was from the family vineyard. The villa is lovely, beautifully modernised, comfortable and tastefully decorated. There is a well equipped kitchen, with all the things you need. The children had constant fun in the pool; it was a big asset on the hot Tuscan days and we sat out in the evenings enjoying the cool and the fabulous views of the Tuscan countryside. Giada was on hand for any needs we had, especially recommending good places to eat nearby. We couldn’t recommend this place any more highly.

Beautiful very large fenced property, with 400 olive trees, fig trees, cypress trees, .... A very large, well-maintained and clean pool. A covered terrace on 3 sides of the house, with possibility of lighting (very convenient for our board games until late at night). Easy access and shops 10 minutes away by car. The kitchen is functional and very well-equipped. In the living room there is a beautiful wooden table - which we did not use as we always ate outside. There are two bathrooms. The 3 bedrooms are upstairs. The air conditioning works very well and in all the main rooms. It is a paradise for a family with up to 4 children, in a remote Tuscany valley. Too bad, our vacation is already over. We'd love to have stayed longer!

what a magical experience it was to share share this home with our family. the view was breathtaking. The sunsets were magnificent. We absolutely love the artwork and architecture was amazing. We loved everything. I am so grateful to the host for allowing us to be a part of the story. Last evening, they catered private dinner for our family, and it was top-notch. The love and care that was taken to provide the meal for us did not go unnoticed. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for an extraordinary experience in Italy.

We had a lovely stay here. The villa had everything we needed and the views were great! Big favourite was the view from the top bathroom. The location was also great to get into Florence. Thank you!

Absolutely magical! Our stay at Casanova was nothing short of unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, our host Giovanni went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and cared for. He met us personally at the bottom of the hill (the villa is tucked away and could be hard to find without his help), and from there, everything was pure magic. When we reached the villa, a delicious homemade meal was waiting for us, along with a fridge thoughtfully stocked with fresh groceries—an incredibly generous and comforting touch after a long journey. The villa itself is a peaceful sanctuary, surrounded by olive trees, with stunning views and total privacy. We felt like we had our own slice of Tuscany all to ourselves. The grounds are expansive and tranquil, yet the location is ideal—just a short drive to Florence, world-class wineries, and the most charming little villages. We left Casanova feeling completely restored, grateful, and already planning our return. Thank you, Giovanni!

Great great great booking. I highly recommend. We had an amazing time, the location is perfect, the house is beautiful. When we lost our frisbee at the neighbors place the owner bought us a new one. Lovely stay. A lot of trash handling instructions that could probably be skipped during checkin but all in all just perfect.

Everything was great :) There should be a little more equipment such as dry cloths and garbage bags. Everything else is GREAT :)
