The villa was stunningly beautiful!
It was not only one of the most well kept accomodation we have stayed in, but we got lost on arrival (our bad navigating), and owner even came and picked us up.
The owners went out of their way to accomodate and make our stay the most memoriable and best experience we have ever had, we are so grateful.

The communication with the host was poor. There was no washing machine available to us. The property was not clean. It was not explained in the description that you had to walk through bedrooms to get to communal rooms. The wifi situation was horrible. However the town was lovely and had great public transportation. Would recommend visiting Meta, just don't stay here.
Nice villa with special flair. Without the big terrace outside, the kitchen inside the house would have been too small, but it was okay when only two people were in the kitchen at the same time. Doors and some of the inventory was not well treated and needs replacement. Next to the villa there was a dog by himself barking all night long which was not nice and kept us awake many hours during the night. The outside terrace is beautiful and we had great hours with our friends there while the wooden Pizza oven made nice dinner for all of us. Without this it wouldn't have been so nice. Pool area is very nice also and a gentleman came every morning to clean up the outside area. Nice house but needs upgrades inside, especially the room doors.

Geweldige locatie en super gastvrije en vriendelijke familie. Qua ligging om dagtripjes te ondernemen ideaal, aangezien alles binnen een uur ongeveer te bereiken is (Lucca, Pisa, Livorno, Florence, Siena, Volterra, San Gimignano, maar ook kleinere plaatsjes in de omgeving zijn de moeite waard). Tweemaal per week kookt de familie voor de gasten (pizza-avond en toscaans diner), hetgeen echt de moeite waard is. Hierdoor direct contact met andere gasten in het appartementen complex.
De ligging is buitenaf op een heuvel waardoor rust echt aanwezig is. In september was het zwembad water al wat frisser, maar ook de moeite waard om een duik in te nemen.
De familie is erg vriendelijk en gastvrij, helpen je bij vragen en spreken diverse talen.
Zeker de intentie om nog weer terug te komen.

Twice a week the family cooks for the guests (pizza evening and Tuscan dinner), which is really worth it. This allows direct contact with other guests in the residence.
The location is outside on a hill which makes for a real rest. In September the pool water was a little bit fresher but also worth a dip.
The family is very friendly and welcoming, helping you with questions and speaking different languages.
Certainly the intention to come back again.

The apartment is difficult to access. It was not especially clean. Many things needed repair - door handles etc. The kitchen area is badly laid out and difficult to use. The fridge had not been defrosted for years and therefore did not function well. There was 6-year old food in one of the cupboards. The owner does not seem to be very interested in his guests - he took 3 hours to react when informed that there was no electricity after a storm. The access road as given in the instructions is atrocious.
