“Perfect holiday setting” High standard of accommodation in a beautiful setting. Close enough to walk into nearest village. The house was comfortable, clean and the garden delightful. All our meals outside sitting in the sheltered area looking out over the olive trees with wonderful views. Good local amenities and not too far to travel before reaching places of interest. We loved everything about this house and are planning the next trip for later in the year. There is nothing negative to say - perfect.

“Beyond adjectives” There is no way to describe our stay here! Pamela and Johnny were more than welcoming. We arrived with our 7 & 4 year olds in tow...and from The gate greeting, we felt as if we were at "memee's house". Each kid had a job...gate keeping and keeping track of the red fetch toy for Bella. We had an unwarranted snafu on credit card deposits in Rome the day before...but it was of no concern to these wonderful and true hosts... Each morning, The breakfast was true to Tuscany yet appealing to the kids... we were within an hours drive of each of our potential destinations...and each evening with a game of fetch watching Bella and the kids...the hosts helped us decide upon on the next days itinerary! We will be back with the whole family in July!

“Perfect combo of charm, location & comfort in glorious Tuscany!” We first dicovered San Fabiano in summer 2003 and have made it a point to return with family and friends as often as we can ever since! The location is ideal for exploring Siena, all the hill towns of southern tuscany, the Chianti and even great for easy day trips to Florence. Besides the charm of this renovated farmhouse - it also has modenr comforts like ac, screened windows, kitchenettes in all the rooms and wireless internet - plus a swimming pool! We love walking into the little town of Monteroni for our morning cappucinos and hiking the trails around this lovely farm estate. Great for kids and family gatherings as well as couples. We get through New England winters by dreaming of returning to San Fabiano. Highly recommended!

“Wonderful place with beautiful vistas of the hills and valley fr” We were able to stay 5 days and 4 nights in this lovely place. The property was as or better than described. Very comfortable and clean. Everything we needed for the time we stayed there. It was a very nice location to be able to take day trips to Siena, Pienza, Montepulciano, Montalcino and Orvieto on the way back to Rome. Such great views from apt #2. We even saw deer in the evening and morning running through the fields below. Montepulciano is very close and you can be there in a matter of a few minutes to shop at the Conard or enjoy shopping and meals. There are a lot of rules on lists provided to follow regarding trash, cleaning, linens, etc. We didn't see much of the caretakers as they had other jobs/work, a new baby, etc. But they were very pleasant and helpful if we needed anything. This is definitely a place we would go back to again.Once we found it. I am glad we got to the location during the day and not at night. You just really have to believe the directions and keep going. The signs are a bit small and I am glad everyone was looking for them. Please go eat at the 13 Gobbi in Montefollonico about 5-6 miles away on a hill top to the north. You will love it. And have their house wine, great. By the way, a bottle of wine and olive oil was provided upon our stay. Both were very good. Wish I could have bought more of it.

“Return visit” One again we enjoyed our visit to this well run set of apartments. They are ready on time, cleean and well equiped. A caretaker lives on site to provide backiup if needed. The gardena and pool are tell tended and maintained. Montipulciano is 10 mins away by car. Be aware that it is in the middle of the countryside with no shops or restaurants nearby.

“Perfect!” We had a 4-night stay here in early July of this year and had such a wonderful experience. We were greeted by alice who was very accommodating and patient even though we lost our way and were an hour late arriving. She was a sweet as can be and made sure we were settled and had all our questions answered before leaving. Barbara (the owner, I believe) came by the next day to greet us and was also wonderful, making sure that we were satisfied. She was taking care of details regarding her forthcoming nuptials which were to take place 5 days after our arrival. She was very accommodating and helpful even though she must have had lots on her mind. We rented a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment with a fully-equipped kitchen, living room/dining room, small walkout with table and chairs off of the kitchen. This was perfect for our family of 4 -- two adults and two teenage girls. The accommodations are superb: comfortable beds with great quality linens; recently and tastefully renovated rooms, spacious and inviting, fully equipped kitchen with dish washer and clothes washer; clothes are a quick dry in the summer sun on a dryer rack that is provided. The exterior of the buildings are very attractive, landscaping is detailed and well tended and there is a beautiful, beautiful pool. Now picture this in the middle of the lovely landscape of the Tuscany region. Need I say more? If you're thinking of staying here, don't hesitate, it is superb. Ideally located close to Montepulciano (5 minutes by car) and not far from the major highway (15 minutes tops) if you feel that you'll be doing some day trips. Exceptional value for the money. I highly recommend this vacation rental and only wish I could go back. Hopefully some day.

“Excellent apartments in a gorgeous location” I stayed with my family and another family for a week in apartments #1 and #3. The couple managing the compound are very nice and helpful, but also very strict and professional about the rules concerning payment, signing the lease agreement, etc. Expect to do a lot of paperwork and sign away all your rights to anything at all as part of the check-in process. But once that is done, they do their best to make your stay comfortable and pleasant. The good: the apartments are spacious and extremely well equipped, very comfortable. We were able to cook lunches and dinners for 9 people in the kitchen of our apartment (#1), comfortably; and we also were able to fit ourselves around both the indoor table and the outdoor patio table. There is a dishwasher and washing machine in each apartment, which is great. The bad: in aug. 2011, at least, internet by wifi was shaky at best, and in general almost impossible in #1. In #3 it was better. The problem is that the setup had a central wifi router someplace in the compound, and then repeater/extender routers in each apartment; but the thick stone walls of the buildings makes the connection weak and unreliable. Since you pay extra for the wifi, it's extra annoying when it doesn't work. Perhaps the owners have fixed this by now. The ugly: As far as I can tell, nothing in the Montepulciano region is ugly. The surroundings could hardly be more beautiful and perfect for a relaxing summer holiday.

“Wow! A relaxing well appointed holiday home” This is central rural position 6ks from Torrita di Siena makes it easy to enjoy beautiful Tuscany. With easy day trips with a car to Seina, Arezzo, Cortona, Castiglione del Lago or Firenze to name a few.Quiet, comfortable with a very suitable kitchen facilities, all helping to make a very relaxing home base in the middle of the wine area. A good map and GPS navigation system is a must to find your way in this amazing countryside.

“family reunion” we looked for a place where the whole family could celebrate a 70'years birthday. We were altogether 4 families of 8 adults and 7 children. The property was ideal for us. We occupied 5 apartments and had the whole place at our disposal. It was nice that we had the whole property at our own so that we should not consider other residents. All apartments were in good standard and the pool area was nice. We had really no complains at all. One evening a pizza evening was arranged by the manager and it was splendid. Further the surrounding towns were interesting and marvelous.
