    People above could be a little noisy moving around due to wooden floors.

    Very comfortable property in a beautiful and tranquil location.

    The description on the booking was not correct about the number of beds. And the staff wanted us to pay extra for a bed that was written in the description. after some persuasion, the staff did give us an extra bed for no cost. A little tip, it would be nice to have some hooks to hang calls or towels around the apartment.

    Beautiful apartment with nice views.

    We had a very pleasant stay at Gardenia apartment. The apartment was comfortable for 4 adults, with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, though a bit dusty in the corners. The kitchen equipment was limited, but enough to prepare a quick lunch. Beautiful views both from the apartment and pool and garden area. The pool was cleaned every morning. Tasty breakfast at the restaurant with good quality ingredients. The owners and staff were communicative and attentive, in case of some issues we encountered during our stay, they were able to find solutions. Great location for exploring Florence, only a 30-minute drive from the residence.

    Our group of city slickers were not used to the bugs 🥹There were a lot of mosquitoes 🤭 definitely pack some insect repellent

    Great spot to relax and enjoy the quiet and beauty that Italy has to offer. We were a group of 15 adults and had a great time swimming and cooking. It is remote, private, beautiful and the perfect spot for a chill holiday

    Kitchen equipment could be better. No wine glasses. Matrass of the beds are simple, no choice for pillows. It was unclear how to change towels. However we think if we had asked the host would have arranged this immediately. So this is just a tip for the host.

    Here again a detailed review from Dunto Venaar. Only reviews from places i visited myself. This week we stayed for family holiday with our 3 kids (15, 13, 9) in tuscany. First extra stars for service. Due to traffic jam we were not able to arrive before 7pm. We called the host and she waited till we arrived. Contact with WhatsApp and by phone was easy and very helpful. The appartement (gardena suite) was superb. Fully renovated. Very clean. Two spacious rooms with both own bathroom. With new interior. Rainshower. 3 beds (kingsize and 1 person bed) in one room and 1 kingsize bed in the other. Nice living room with 2 sofa's and dining table. Small kitchen with simple equipement. Located in a small village, 25 minute romantic drive to florence city center. 1,5 hour to sienna and pisa. 1 hour to lucca. At 10 minute drive to vaglia trainstation we parked the car and took a train to florence (25 minute) main station. At the residence there is a great restaurant where we had a high class dinner. Not the cheapest but very price worthy. Great staff. In the garden is an infinity swimming pool and a cosy terrace to drink great wine. Due to family issues we had to leave a day earlier. Without any discussion the host helped us to have everything arranged before our department. This hotel is a great place to experience the tuscany hill feeling with great opportunities to visit touristic places and both enjoy the relaxing tuscany hills.

    Can't find true negatives. An improvment would be to have marked footpaths in the surrounding nature. There are some paths further away, such as at the monestary uphill (well worth a visit).

    We were very pleased with our days at Florence Country Residence, located in a beautiful landscape in the hills north of Florence. The apartment was very nice, well equipped and with a fresh newly renovated bathroom. The staff was friendly and the owner took time to chat with us several times and gave useful information about activities and places to visit in the area. We preferred the calm relaxing sourrouding with green hills and singing birds after a more hectic day in Florence.

    I didn't notice that my room didn't come with shampoo so I had to ask for some at the front desk but they were gracious and offered me shampoo for free.

    The Florence Country Residence was the perfect start to my week in Florence! My room was very pretty and had sunset views. I felt very comfortable and safe and even though all the rooms were booked, I felt like it wasn't crowded at all around the pool. The ladies at the reception desk were so nice. I forgot to bring my camera charger and had one delivered to the front desk and they notified me immediately when it arrived. The location is stunning and good for solo travellers, couples and small families.

    No complaints.

    What a lovely place! Gorgeous surroundings - a beautiful country stay. The apartment we stayed in is old of course but very spacious for a family of 4, clean and we had everything we needed for a few days stay. The pool area was very nice and the view just fantastic. Very friendly staff. Easy to make a day trip to Florence, just about a 25 minute drive. If travelling with children, I highly recommend the Il Gigante Parco Avventura which is located just a few minutes down the road.

    The place was really amazing, the common areas. The room looked about 10 times better in the pictures, so the room was not quite what we hoped for, but the surrounding areas made it up. The views were just perfect.

    The only very minor ‘watch out’ is that the kitchen was a little small if you wanted to cater for a few people.

    The location and pool are spectacular. Really nice place to totally relax.

    We were really disappointed that one day before our arrival we were told that the loan of a travel cot would cost €120 for our 4 night trip. We had booked a 2 bed villa (there was 2 of us and our toddler) and requested a cot at the time of booking and were never made aware. This was almost the price of a one night stay, and surely more than the cot itself was worth! When we approached this with reception staff we were told there was no way around this.

    The property is in the most stunning area of countryside, yet only 20 min drive from Florence centre. Lovely building and pool area. The restaurant in the nearby hotel was also lovely.
