Villa Sonia was perfect in every way, The buildings are beautiful, the grounds immaculate. The facilities inside are very modern, with plenty of everything to allow us to explore cooking with the local ingredients. We even tried out the pizza oven on our last night. The layout of the buildings gives plenty of space for everyone to get together or, find their own pool of tranquility. This made it a joy to spend the week with friends and family (we had 6 adults, 3 teens and an 8 year old). The pictures on the website really do not do justice to what you will find when you arrive. A big thank-you to Barbara & family who were perfect hosts, so welcoming and friendly, this made the checking in process after a long day of travel painless. They were always there to help with anything (we had a power cut the first night, and they arrived in minutes to fix). We're already thinking about a return visit. The honesty bar wine cellar a surprise bonus! One minor niggle - and nothing to do with the property, is that there is no gelateria in San Donato, however the one in Castellina is well worth the short drive.

We had an amazing and restful time at this villa - as others have said, the pictures don't do it justice. It's set in a beautiful part of the country side, short walk to San Donato with shops, cafes, bars and restaurants. Larger supermarkets 15 mins drive away so a car is recommended - and easy to manage from Florence airport but allow plenty of time for collecting and dropping off hire cars at the airport as you need to use a short transfer bus and you might need to wait for 1 or 2 of the 20 minute loops to get on. We were 6 in the villa so all 4 children had their own rooms and plenty of space. The house is very well equipped and the owners have really worked hard to make it a home from home. Kitchen is very well equipped, there are lots of places to sit in the property by yourself or with others and the table football and table tennis table were a great addition. The local bourse management (Debora and family - you get to meet everyone! :-) are very supportive with advice when you need it but also leave you alone to enjoy the villa. Weather was hot (32 degrees generally) but the stone house manages the heat well and the air conditioning is perfectly adequate. We particularly enjoyed the volunteer-run pizza restaurant next to the Coop. Great fun and I can't think of anything about the property or the holiday that we could improve -- and of course you have Florence on your doorstep (use the 'park and ride'), and Pisa, Sienna, Lucca all very reachable for a day trip. If you pick this villa, I'm sure you'll have a great time.

Beautiful villa, owned by a local family. Perfect setting for large families. Set in the medieval village of San Donato. The views are spectacular. The kitchen is extremely well stocked. We made pasta but there is a pizza oven and bbq available. The pool is amazing but there is also a football table and table tennis, plus board games. The Villa is very clean and there’s lots of places to sit and enjoy the views as a family or to eat meals. There is a local coop and pizza takeaway and a few great restaurants nearby. We hired cars, which is essential if you want to go outside of the village. We visited Florence, Siena and San Gimignano, which are all approximately 30 minutes away. I would definitely recommend this villa for a memorable holiday.

Villa Sonia and all assistance provided by Posarelli was first rate. Our holiday was unforgettable
10.0 / 10.0
The place was everything that I had hoped for and more. Plenty of room for our group with the different sleeping areas, everyone had the opportunity to have their own space when needed. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything that was need. The views, especially at sunrise and sunset were unbelievable. Conveniently located between Florence and Siena allowed for easily visiting both cities. The owners were waiting to greet us upon arrival and showed us all around the property, and answered any questions that we had. The place is exactly like the pictures, and pool was a perfect place to relax after a day of sightseeing. There were also several excellent restaurants within walking distance.

We stayed at Villa Sonia during a family vacation to Tuscany. The Villa is absolutely wonderful, we can't say enough positive things about the grounds, amenities, pool, etc. It is a very special place and we enjoyed it immensely. The host Deborah and family are welcoming, helpful and take excellent care of Villa Sonia. It was perfect for our needs as we are a large family and appreciated having separate living spaces but communal areas to gather as well. The hosts have truly thought of everything to make their guests stay comfortable, enjoyable and peaceful. The pictures don't do it justice, it's even more beautiful in person. The location is quaint and there are a few good restaurants, grocery store and pharmacy in walking distance. The village of San Donato in Poggio is charming and serene and we loved seeing the town. There are also good wineries within 15 minutes drive. Highly recommend Villa Sonia! Make sure to plan for free time for the pool as you won't want to leave!

The Villa and grounds are immaculate. Close to a lot of the small Chianti towns and central location if wanting to travel to Florence, Venice etc.The Villa was as described and more. There was plenty of separate rooms for all 12 of my family. Lots of kitchen and dining space. Enough dishes and accessories anyone would need. The pool was huge and enjoyed every day. So clean and beautiful scenery all around. Plenty of loungers, towels etc. Loved it on those hot day. Loved how the bedrooms were like separate apartments. Our family consisted of 4 separate families and we all had our own spaces. The 3 older grandchildren had their rooms and bathroom upstairs to themselves so worked out great. They were all very clean and very unique. Beds were very comfortable and air conditioned which we really appreciated. Bathrooms were clean, showers were great. Nothing to complain about here. Loved the little town of San Donato which is within walking distance of the Villa. An amazing restaurant on the hills next to Village plus many others in town. Best pizza by the street vendor. The Posaerelli agency was very helpful helping me plan before our trip and once we got her Debora the owner was very helpful with suggestions and providing us with everything we needed including a stroller. Both answered our questions quickly and with patience. Thank you!!
