The Villa Uccellaia was the perfect stay! Beautiful area, quiet surroundings. The area felt safe. No traffic close to the property. The kids loved the pool, play area and the church were they had lots of fun. The sitting areas around the house were all very nice but we found our favorite spot. We were two families with three little boys.
The care taker, Roberto was very helpful. Took care ... (more)of the garden and pool every morning.
We would love to come back one day.

A very nice and nicely located house, with a beautiful view over Massa Marittima and its surroundings. Ideal for 4-5 people who do not expect all the modern amenities, but want a plain Tuscan house. Interesting walking trails in the neighbourhood.
The property was wonderful, the owner most helpful, but we thought that the place was in a more rural setting when in fact it was in suburbia. This didn't make for an unpleasant stay, just not what we were really looking for. If that is what friends were after then most certainly we would recommend Rio Corso. The property is conveniently located to the main cities of Pisa, Lucca, Lerici and the Ci... (more)nque Terra. We found the small mountain-top towns of Monte Carlo and Monte Cartini real treasures.
Great clean Villa in fantastic location for exploring Tuscanny by car. Staircase upstairs a little steep, if thats not an issue for you it's a great place. Would definetly go back for a summer visit. Couldn't of been a better location for us. Quite a few local restaurents of excellent quality minutes away in local village and very convenient to Autostrada.
The villa was more spacious than the photos portrayed it. The family who owned it was friendly and very accomodating. The villa and grounds were immaculate. I really appreciated use of washer with handy clothes rack dryer with clothes pins. The kitchen was new and most sufficient for 4 or 6 people. The location was great for exploring Pisa, Firenze, Lucca and surrounding Tuscany. The neares... (more)t town was Altopascio, there was all types of stores and services for your convenience. Most of all! The house was very safe, it is located in a community of lovely homes all gated with intercoms. Our villa had its own driveway with an electric gate that locked every time you entered or departed, you can sleep knowing it would be very difficult for an intruder to enter. That was a worry for me renting in an unknown place. I would definately return to this villa if I ever needed to be in that location again providing it was not summertime. We did not do well without air conditioning. I guess we are spoiled Americans. It was extremely hot and I thought I would do more cooking, but did not because of the heat. There was not access to a pool either so there was little relief from the heat. But if I returned for Fall or Winter or even Spring the house is great !
Very attractive apartment in a centrally located site near the train line between Lucca & Firenze. It was a little hard to locate. Very Clean & newly remodeled. We hope to return somtime.
The property is basic, but clean, safe, comfortable and brilliantly placed to explore Northern Tuscany, by train and by car. The owners were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay there again and would strongly recommend it.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Rio Corso. We had some difficulty finding the property, but once we figured out how we went wrong it was easy. The property was everything we expected and the owner and his son were incredibly helpful and friendly. The Villa was well designed, clean, modern and attractive. Would highly recommend this property.
Great property, Owners were great. Location was great. Quiet, peaceful. Only thing i would suggest to the owners is that the property that we had needed bit of cleaning, we found alots of spider webs, etc.,, kitchen needed, bread knife, coffee pot, it was lacking alots of kitchen supplies.
Mariuccia was a lovely little apartment, even though it was not in the town of Amalfi. Still, it was nice and quiet, with incredible views and privacy. It was great as a home base with close access to the little towns nearby (Amalfi, Positano, Ravello, Capri etc). The private garage to rent extra was a big plus for us since we had a car. Our landlord Rachele was so gracious and helpful and accessi... (more)ble. Very nice and we recommend it.
