Spectacular and first class
The anticipation grew palpably as our car climbed the charming country road to the villa. My eyes widened gleefully as we turned into the driveway, past the olive grove. My first sight of this special place was through my lowered car window. The first sound was from already arrived family members, ecstatically greeting us, almost shouting with wonder at the perfection of our villa choice. Thus began a two-week stay at Villa Rosita. The service is first class, the villa is spectacular. At each discovery of an new amenity, we were amazed at magazine-like beauty, almost too good to be really, really real. The gazebo at the pool, the warm and nurturing kitchen, the walk to the top of the hill, the villages nestled into the hillside, the friendly people, and the spectacular views, fading miles into infinity. My mind is replete with lavender colored wisteria, draping the outdoor dining area. Local wine quenching eager thirst, mountain top Tuscan vistas beckoning from any open window,any where in the villa. My delighted family expressing their awe at the entire experience that is Villa Rosita: laughing, Joyful people, luscious landscapes, love, food, wine and overpowering memories of Tuscany. A special part of my heart resides there, awaiting my return. Thank you Mrs Sonia for another wonderful holiday.. since we met you always provided to my family great houses and an excellent customer care

Half term heaven
The villa was amazing. The views and the architectural detail was nothing short of breathtaking! Mrs Sonia took care of everything, and after a magical day of exploring the hill towns, we arrived home to the villa just in time for a glass of wine under the stars, and a heart warming, home-cooked meal right at our very own villa table. Italy shouldn’t be traveled any other way!
