Summary: Great place to stay with family/friends. The grounds are beautiful and immaculately maintained. The house is spotless. The owners organized a meal and a cooking class at the villa for us. They were willing and able to help in any way possible and were very organized with the check in and check out process. Will definitely return.

Summary: From the first contact until our checkout, the communication was excellent. The Villa was very well decorated and provided an excellent venue for our 12 person group. The chef and hostess prepared a delicious meal and extraordinary service. The Villa provided an excellent place to rest for our group. Everyone had their own bedroom and bathroom. Caterina, Gabriel and Carolina were EXCELLENT to work with! I would definitely recommend this Villa to anyone looking for a central location in Tuscany!! We will definitely book this Villa again in the future. Sincerely Shannon & Marineth Wilks-Atlanta GA USA.

Summary: My husband and I spent 2 weeks at Villa Iris with our adult children and their spouses. The villa location is ideal and the views are even better in person, just breathtaking. The outdoor space is where we most of our living, and the pool is exceptional. Centrally located to Florence, Siena, Lucca and such easy access to San Gimignano for dinner, we all agreed it was ideal location. The chef services made us feel like royalty! If we can be back, we will!

Summary: The overall property (charming large house, en-suite rooms, land, layout, inside & out utility) is marvelous; especially the pool. The overall (contracted) housekeeping regiment (timing, cleanliness, etc.) was great. The kitchen oven & microwave lacked operating instructions. The stove burners were finicky. The drip coffee maker didn’t work and the single cup maker was able but challenging. The fridge & wine cooler and dishwasher are all super. The sink & island are throwback-awesome. The cutlery is lacking, slightly; dull knives, etc. but adequate. Glassware was generous. The welcoming buffet was delicious & generous but basic materials for wrapping leftovers were lacking.Upon arrival and all through the stay, the house was musty, at times stuffy, bordering on moldy. Windows (all) lacking screens, thwarted fresh-airflow. Open doors and/or windows welcomed pesky flies, especially notable on arrival, but diminished over time. We wondered if the house was occupied the week before our arrival. The bedrooms were charming, close to ‘tired’ life-end furnishings, but the mattresses (& linens) all were great, supported by the aforementioned housekeeping. The en suite bathroom were adequate-plus, water pressure, volume and temperature all great. Some plumbing arrangements are funky, but adequate. Some shower doors and other elects needed repair that were addressed quickly & perfectly. The independently manageable air-conditioning throughout was great. While we all wished for fr

Summary: This villa does not disappoint! We had a family of twelve including eight adults, three children, and one baby. It was the perfect space for our family. Each bedroom was equipped with its very own bathroom. We were all very comfortable in our space. We would take day trips to different cities and retreat to our villa in the evening time. We would either cook dinner ourselves or have the private chef cook wonderful meals for us. Watching the sunset at the villa was incredible. One of our favorite things to do was play bocce ball on the court! So fun! We would come back in a heart beat. The hosts were also very responsive to our needs.

Summary: Great villa and property that was fantastic for our group of 12, including 6 children between ages 5 and 11. So much for them to do with the open spaces, various games, pool, etc. I’ve stayed in Italy with my family three times now and I think this was the best villa and location for driving to many of the great Tuscan cities.

Summary: Group of 6 couples exploring Tuscany. We loved the Villa. It is large, comfortable, well equipped and it has a spectacular view of San Gimignano and Tuscan countryside. We enjoyed an on-site cooking class and an on-site Chef’s dinner. We did not have a car for the first 3 days and that was a struggle. We walked to San Gimignano, and it’s a difficult journey. Our group is physically fit, and everyone found it very challenging - up a steep grade for about 45 minutes. The farm next door (10 min walk) is fantastic for a wine tour/tasting and dining. It was a highlight for us. Our group loved the bocce court, the large dining tables, and the outdoor covered terrace. We highly recommend a stay at Villa Iris.
