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 The couch in the living room is outdated and unappetizing.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.

Two beautiful weeks. Great/quiet location. Huge plot (> 50,000 sqm) with its own olive grove, small vegetable garden, many trees and plants. Large pool (approx. 20x15m). Typical Tuscan house (lots of wood/traditional dishes). Relatively new bathrooms and beautiful kitchen. Mosquito screens. Dishwasher ran again after filling with rinse aid/salt. Supermarkets about 10 minutes away. 100m away recommended restaurant. We felt at home with Fernando. Property very well maintained. Heavenly peace. You have to note (it didn't bother us). In the first week, only the gardeners, the pool boy, the beekeeper and the landlady's parents were on the property unannounced. They live right next to the house. In the second week, the parents (incl. housekeeper) was then completely there. Loving and calm people, who you have not noticed much. You should renew the two pool loungers and the two pool chairs. Thank you 🙏

This was the perfect Tuscany stay for me and my family. It was peaceful, private, easy to get to by car, and perfect for day trips to Florence and Siena. Everything worked, and the house was super clean. Our hosts, Stefano & Giancfranca, were always responsive and full of excellent recommendations on where to eat and what to do around the area. We will come back for sure - and hopefully stay for longer next time!

If you are looking for a nice and clean house close to Florence, but still on the countryside with a great view, then this location is the perfect fit for you. We really enjoyed the time at Giacomos house. We missed nothing and he was always available when we had a question.

The Villa was excellent, in the perfect location and beautifully presented with lots of additional extras to make our stay even better. Virgina was the perfect host, so friendly and welcoming and we were so grateful for her assistance when we lost our phone signal and maps 5 minutes away from the Villa on arrival. The Villa is great for visiting the surrounding cities of Pisa, Sienna, Lucca and Florence. We used the train service from Sigma which was efficient and free parking. We will definitely return and visit more of Tuscany. Thank you Virgina.

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!

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!

Great villa. AC worked great. I would stay here again.

Wow! Wow! Wow! What an amazing place to bring the family and celebrate our anniversary. So many gorgeous group spaces indoors and out. Our host accommodated us with early arrival, a crib and plenty of linens for two small children. The garden is gorgeous and the yard is friendly and safe for a two-year-old. Our family ate our way through the neighborhood. Such great restaurants all around. Started the day at the convent for coffee and would say the Cucina was one of our favorite restaurants for dinner. All in all it was the perfect place to make some very beautiful memories.

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!

Well we have booked this many many months in advance for my sister and my father birthday - family retreat. There were always many thoughts if we had chosen the right place. The drive from Florence is a mission due to the lanes, but once you reach the place, O My god. The doors open you are welcomed to the place which is like dreams. The 6 bedrooms are all spacious, and all have bathrooms which are clean. The kitchen is big and dining area is also big. We had a small drinks organised in the lawn which they had, and with the beautiful back drop, it was insane. Overall - we could not have chosen a better place with better people who were helpful and friendly. Thank you log

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

just wanted to share how much I loved my time at this beautiful place. We were a family of 11 adults, and the house was perfect for a big group like ours. It’s very spacious and extremely comfortable, with plenty of room for everyone to relax and enjoy. The surrounding landscape is absolutely stunning—peaceful, picturesque, and everything you’d hope for in Tuscany. The swimming pool was one of our favorite spots, offering an amazing panoramic view of the nearby town—just breathtaking. Our host, Tatiana , was extremely kind and welcoming. One morning, we were surprised with a delicious selection of Italian pastries for breakfast—a thoughtful and generous gesture that made our stay even more special. It’s also a great place for children, with plenty of outdoor space and a safe, relaxing environment. I would absolutely recommend this stay to families or large groups looking for a memorable Tuscan escape. I’d definitely come back!

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 villa! Moreno was kind and helpful. The home is historic and so special!

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 a wonderfull stay! The housekeeper, Ayan was very kind. The last night of our stay he helped us with the bbq.

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 spent a short break at the villa with our family. The house is very spacious and full of character and is perfect for a family gathering or a group of friends. Our host was friendly and very helpful. We unfortunately, due to the weather, didn’t get an opportunity to use the swimming pool but we have no doubt it would be perfect in warmer weather. The house is also very conveniently located for visiting Florence. We drove to a neighbouring train station in Montelupo and got the train from there that run very frequently. It saves the hassle of parking in Florence! All in all, we had a lovely stay.

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.
