A Panoramic Tuscan Luxury - Villa Maria in Fronzano

Surrounded by breathtaking views, Villa Maria is perched on a private hillside overlooking the Chianti region and the Arno Valley. Built in the early 1800's this lovely villa is located in the Tuscan region where the highest quality of olive oil is produced. The living room, with palladium windows, boasts magnificent views. Just steps outside lay a west facing stone terrace that beckon you to sip Chianti Classico and enjoy evenings of brilliant sunsets. A gorgeous 45-minute drive through the rolling hills of Tuscany will take you directly to Florence. If you wish to travel by train the nearest station is just 10 minutes away. Travel time by train to Florence is 25 minutes. Your nearest village, Fronzano, in the county of Reggello, is a 5 minute walk down your very own aisle of cypress trees. In Reggello, a 10-minute drive, there is everything you need to make your life authentically Tuscan.

Russcany! 75th Birthday Reunion for my Husband.
A gorgeous villa with an indescribable view-you can just sit with a glass of wine and stare for hours. Plenty of privacy for everyone and several group gathering spaces both inside and out. Tomasso, our host, was always available to answer our questions and see to our needs. He made everything so easy. This is a memory we will all cherish forever 💕

Paradise in Tuscany
This experience with Villa Maria went so far beyond our expectations that it’s hard to put into words. Tommaso was a never-ending help with the patience far beyond what we could’ve asked. The house was immaculate, the location prime, and the views never to be forgotten. Working with Marco and Tommaso was flawless and easy. Hope to go again

The villa in the Italian hills did not disappoint. Even the flowers were blooming and abundant as they were in the photos. We enjoyed all aspects of the property…the well-maintained pool, the various dining spaces, and comfortable areas for visiting and reading. The newly renovated bathrooms were a great surprise. Tommaso, the on-property manager/owner was incredibly helpful and assisted us with many requests and valuable advice. The advice ranged from restaurant recommendations to helping with car mechanical issues. Tommaso is a wonderful host and seemed to enjoy his work.

Return Visit Even Better
Our second visit to Villa Maria with extended family was every bit as magical as the first. We enjoyed evening dinners on the veranda, lounging by the pool and visiting the Tuscan hill towns. Our dinner prepared by chef Donato was exceptional…a highlight of the visit! Our host, Tommaso, was very helpful and available as needed.

We stayed for the week between Christmas and New Years and had an absolutely amazing time. The villa is beautiful and really spacious for our group of 10 people. Tom was so welcoming and helpful and a wonderful host. The location is perfect for exploring the area, so much to see and close enough to Florence for a day trip. We can't say enough good things about this wonderful spot. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Amazing house and stay! Not only does Marco and his son Tommaso offer an amazing house for a big family vacation, they also make sure you are having a great time during your stay and are there for any questions or needs which adds the personal friendly feeling to your stay. They even installed a fixed electrical car charger so we could charge our electric car during our stay. Perfect hosts that goes the extra mile to make your stay a great memory!

An authentic Tuscan experience
My family and I recently stayed at the villa and had an incredible experience. Our host Tomasso was super attentive, knowledgeable and very helpful when it came to navigating travel in the area. We also hired Chef Donato for dinners and his food was incredible - I highly recommend him! The property is family friendly - we had children with us and they loved using the outdoor pool and soccer field. We did not rent a car but I would suggest it for those looking to do daytrips outside of the town. Thank you Marco and Tomasso for an incredible tuscan experience!

Marco and his son Tomasso are wonderful hosts! The Villa is amazing and we loved our time there. We spent every other day relaxing at the pool, playing tennis and ping pong in the pool house. We were two families with 5 kids all age19-22. We also hired a private chef, Donnato, who prepared two fabulous meals paired with wine, which we highly recommend. The Villa experience was definitely a highlight of our trip to Italy and we look forward to staying there again. Thank you Marco and Tomasso!!

Part of the family
We had an amazing stay at the villa. It was more house than two people need, but we are on a “second honeymoon” and wanted to be alone and be centrally located to visit all over Tuscany. It’s hard to describe the experience. It’s not the view or the building, it’s the family history and genuine goodness that exudes from this place. It’s rare to find now a day, but is more abundant than olive oil at Villa Maria. I didn’t just stay at a VRBO, I made a lifelong friend and connection in Italy.

Beautiful Home in a Spectacular Setting
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Maria! The house lived up to all the reviews and photos, and the view was stunning. The location was very convenient. We especially liked being able to walk to town for coffee and pastries each morning, and having the train station so close made it easy to get to Florence. Like many others, we had Donato cook for us 2 nights. We had arranged to have him come our first night, and this was a life saver since, due to flight issues, we didn't arrive until quite late. The food was amazing, and there was enough left each time for lunch and dinner the next day. I would recommend that everyone have him cook at least once during their stay. Thank you for a wonderful time!

Wonderful Tuscan Retreat
We just got back from a week's stay at Villa Maria and it exceeded my expectations in all respects. We were a group of 9 (2 families with a total of 5 teenagers) and the villa provided ample space for us all to relax together without stepping on each other's toes. The villa is exactly as pictured on the site. The pool is beautiful and the outdoor bathroom/shower was perfect. The tennis court was beautifully maintained. The house remained cool even through the hot July days and we were never uncomfortable at night. Morando took wonderful care of us and our first night's dinner by Donato was a highlight. As other reviewers have noted, the villa is so nice that it's hard to leave to see the other wonderful sites of Tuscany. We'll have to come back for another trip to see the rest!

Absolutely Fabulous
I booked this villa for family and friends because I loved the photos. Amazingly, the photos don't do it justice. The grounds are immaculate, the house is warm and inviting and the views from the terrace and pool decks are stunning. We had the most marvelous week. We toured a bit, went horseback riding, walked to the village, but mostly relaxed by the pool and enjoyed the villa. We had Donato cook for us two nights, which was excellent. Marco and Tomasso were wonderful hosts. There was great communication leading up to our stay and daily check-ins while we were there to make sure all was going well. Thank you both for sharing this wonderful spot and providing treasured memories for all ten of us. We hope to come back!

Magnificent Villa Maria
We had the most wonderful family vacation in Villa Maria! All 11 of us hated to leave. The property and villa cannot be outdone. The Villa is beautiful, charming and very spacious with ample room for all of us. The property itself is stunning and meticulously maintains with gorgeous and relaxing views. We all enjoyed the pool and the lighted sports court allowed for late night tennis and soccer games. Tomasso is the best VRBO host we've ever encountered as he is engaging, informative and was responsive to every question and need we had. As others have mentioned Chef Donato is a gem that should not be missed. He is a fabulous cook with some of the best food we have ever tasted. He works hard to meet requests as we had two family members that are gluten free. Book Villa Maria...you will leave with happy hearts and wonderful memories.

Amazing Experience
We had a great experience. There were 6 couples and the villa never seemed fully occupied. The setting was surreal looking out to the gorgeous Tuscan countryside. Tomaso was there for our every need. He provided rides to and from the train for some, took us for a tour of his family's olive farm, and became part of our family of friends. Donato prepared 3 of our dinners for the week's stay and each meal was delicious and perfectly prepared. Not having to cook or go out in the evening was a real treat. Side trips to Florence, Sienna ,San Gimignano, and area wineries were most accessible. Hiking trails were right out back. The walk into town for essentials was only a few minutes out the gate. The group all highly recommend Villa Maria as the perfect way to connect to the essence of Tuscan life.

Great place for relaxing break
Everyone in our group enjoyed staying at the beautiful property during a holiday with my wife's family (8 adults and 6 children). The house is plenty big enough with good size bedrooms and good living spaces as well as useful outdoor space. It was a shame that no welcome pack was provided unlike the ones you get at other properties - maybe a bottle of wine and some milk and bread would have been a nice touch. During our stay (August 2023) the temperatures hit 38-40 degrees centigrade and it meant the bedrooms (no air conditioning) were really hot at night even with ceiling fans. We did request freestanding fans but none were made available. The swimming pool is large and clean and warm - the children and adults loved spending time in the pool to cool off! As we were on holiday in August the mosquitoes and flies were a big nuisance and the whole group got bitten plenty so I'd recommend good bug spray and burning a candle at night!! The walk into town is via a dusty track and the local town has a basic shop. To go to good eateries you will need to drive. That said the property is a great location for getting to Florence. The tennis court and football pitch was fantastic and enjoyed by many of the family. The view from the property was breathtaking also. In summary if the property had air conditioning in the bedrooms (you pay for electricity during your stay anyway!) then it would be 5 stars. Certainly the host Tomasso was really friendly and full of good tips!

The best vacation
From start to finish this was the right choice for us. We were a group of 10 people (5 couples) who are all colleagues from various Universities around the world. We began the selection process in September/October of 2012 and narrowed it down to Villa Maria based on photos, guest comments, and Marco's amazing ability to respond quickly to questions. Marco promised Villa Maria was actually better than the pictures shown on the website. He was telling the truth. Once you arrive you feel like this beautiful villa was yours for the week. Marco continued to be responsive and helpful throughout. He was on site several times to be sure things were going well. Miranda, Marco's villa caretaker, was there for any issues daily we might have had (which were very minimal). The pool was fantastic, the view was better than fantastic. My wife and I agree that for us it was the best vacation we have ever spent. Donato cooked for the the group the first night and it was specatucular. From anti-pasta through cleanup the entire group simply could relax and enjoy. All of the work was done by Donato. We spent each day as individual vacations for each couple. Sometimes joining up for a group activity, sometimes going off on our own. Each evening we would regroup over a shared meal at the villa and retell our adventures. Truly this was a magnificent vacation and we feel so lucky to have connected with Marco! -Lew Conner, Duluth, MN USA

Peaceful Tuscan Luxury Villa
This is my second Tuscany villa experience and so my expectations were fairly high. Villa Maria absolutely delivered on every front. This time, we traveled to Italy with 12 family members, ranging from 70 to 6 in age. The villa is very spacious with great views throughout. The swimming pool was awesome for the kids and has a great covered patio area with lounge chairs, refrigerator and WC. Super convenient. The kitchen supported us well with all the cooking we did. Beds were comfortable. Great airflow throughout the house so even on days that hit high 30's, we were reasonably comfortable. Nearby is a small grocery store that has all the basics, even a butcher. Lastly, and very importantly, Marco and his staff were exceptionally good. Great communication from our first inquiry nearly a year ago, through all the payments, check in and check out. Given these are virtual transactions and you always wonder whether all goes as planned, with Marco you always felt he was there. Last comment on Marco, when he stopped by to say hello, he spent time with us and our map of the surrounding area to give some suggestions. Our absolute favorite was to have lunch in a small town, Villa a Sesta. He told us there were a couple great places there. We showed up and explored the town, which takes all of 10 minutes. Stumbled on Villa di Sotto. Sat out on the patio, overlooking the olive groves. Had amazing wine, buffalo mozzarella, parma ham, and risotto. Great experience. Other food options there as well. Worth including in a day trip to the area.
