Period residence in Montepulciano (Siena), Tuscany

We rented out the entire apartment. The space is grand and full of charm and beautiful antiques. The roof terrace is the real winner, stunning views all to yourself. Check in was very easy and communication seamless. The only note I would give is that the apartment could use some updating in terms of modern comforts. There is no proper air conditioning except for in one bedroom and some rooms had standing air conditioning units which were not that effective, and other rooms only had fans. Additionally, some of the kitchen facilities could use updating as well such as coffee makers, stove and iron/steamer wasn’t working, etc. If it wasn’t 35° in Tuscany during our stay, this would have all been fine, but I suggest to the owner to make some small improvements for modern comfort. Otherwise, great stay!

If you are coming with a group this is an excellent place in an excellent location. Now before I finish this review, I have to let you know that this villa is located in the ZLT. If you are not familiar with the Italian ZTLs, research it before you go. With that said, you will have to park the car in the P6 lot and walk to the building. Knowing this will help with luggage and shoe selection. Its TOTALLY worth if but it demands planning in advance. The parking is about 100 yards and a portion of it is up a decent grade hill. The Villa does not have a lift so you will be carrying your luggage up 4 flights. Parking is 10 euros a day that you pay to the host who will provide you a parking pass. The Villa is centrally located and fantastic. It’s a historic building so know ahead. The terrace at the top is worth it You will not regret it. You will have an amazing review of the town and the landscape. We spent most of our time up on the terrace just enjoying the view. The rooms are large and a kitchen and laundry room is available so you can bring less clothes so that you have more room to buy stuff. The furniture is dated but it goes well with the villa. A local farm stand is located at the bottom on the hill. Fresh fruits/veggies, great cheese/meats, and pasta/sauces are available for you to use that kitchen. Communication with the host is through whatsapp. You will not get a response through the VRBO messaging tool. They are very responsive and helpful.

Great stay.
