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.

Excellent home base for Tuscany experience
This beautiful Tuscan estate exceeded expectations for our wine and culinary vacation! The view is spectacular. Our host, Tommaso, was extremely friendly and a gracious host. We brought in a chef for a Tuscan cooking class and the kitchen was well appointed. Parking the car was easy. Very modern bathrooms. Two wonderful rooms for group gathering areas inside. Highly recommend this property!

Our family of 11 enjoyed 4 wonderful days at this once in a lifetime villa. Tommaso, our host was a delight to work with. He was attentive, gave us great information and was available for any questions during our stay. One of our highlights was having Donato cook for us for the 4 nights we were there. Five star meals and great personality. Highly reccomend this gem of a person for your stay.

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 💕

An Unforgettable Stay.
My husband and I chose Villa Maria to host both of our families and it was the perfect place for a very intimate wedding celebration (14 people total). Tommaso was an incredible host. He checked in on us throughout the week to make sure we had everything we needed. We needed a steamer, he ordered one and it was there the next day. He was kind enough to show us his olive grove near by and gave us lots of great information. Tommaso really enriched our Tuscan vacation with his wealth of knowledge and all of his recommendations. Chef Donato cooked two meals for us: a casual pizza dinner and a special 4 course menu for our wedding celebration. Every minute was incredible. The food was amazing and being able to enjoy the view from the outdoor dining table was perfect. Everyone loved walking down to the little market/coffee shop for breakfast and to pick up a few things for lunches. The tennis court was in perfect condition, the pool was fabulous and clean, and everyone enjoyed playing pingpong and pool. The AC in the bedrooms was amazing and the newly renovated bathrooms were a nice surprise. We can't say enough good things about our stay at Villa Maria! Would highly recommend and look forward to visiting again soon.

Fabulous Holiday
This is a beautiful house with lots of space inside and out . The terrace has THE best view! The pool is beautiful and well maintained. There is a loggia with a shower room and table tennis table for those who want to stay out of the sun. The tennis court is great with a beautiful even bounce. The bedrooms are comfortable and bathrooms and air con have been upgraded and there are mosquito nets for the windows. The kitchen is well equipped , there is a great bbq, and everything works. Donato cooked a resplendent feast for us all two of the nights we were there. It was excellent. Tommaso is a perfect host: there when you need anything but unobtrusive. Excellent recommendations for restaurants and shops . We had a great family holiday and highly recommend.

THE BEST WEEK EVER
Wow! What can I say? We had the most surreal, wonderful week at Tommassos house in Tuscany. The pictures do not do it justice. The views from the property are from a movie! Donato the chef was amazing. An absolute MUST. We wish we had him more! Prepared the most delicious Italian authentic food. Tommasso is a delight. A wonderful host. Best rental we have ever stayed in. If we get the chance to come back to Italy we would love to stay here again. Every morning we would walk down the Cyprus tree drive to get coffee (5 min walk). It was perfect. Thank you so much.

Tuscan Hospitality at its Finest
It’s very difficult to choose only one aspect of this stay that our family enjoyed most - the glorious views of the valley below, the beautiful pool area with umbrellas and loungers and soft towels, the immaculate house and grounds with fragrant flowers on arbors, the comfortable beds with finishes like hand-carved wooden headboards, the soccer pitch on which my teenagers spent hours running around, brand-new modern bathrooms with rain shower heads, the list goes on. Even with all of that, the real standout at Villa Maria is the warm hospitality extended by the hosts, Marco and Tommaso. Our group included grandparents, parents, aunts/uncles, teenagers and a nine month old baby, so a wide variety of needs. Our hosts communicated with us prior to our arrival to ensure that we would have everything we would need ahead of time (key as we arrived on a Sunday and many stores were closed that day which we would not have known). The walk-through at check-in was thorough and well thought out. And during our stay, Tommaso was incredibly helpful to answer any questions we had and to offer advice and assistance. Additionally, we hired Chef Donato to provide some of our dinners and lunches and as many other reviewers have said, he was amazing at every meal. I’m not sure when I will ever eat so well again. So, if you are considering staying at this jewel to bask in the Tuscan countryside, by all means, book it.

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.

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!

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.

A magical stay
We have been back from Italy for a week, but we are all still dreaming of our time in Tuscany at Villa Maria and looking forward to going back as soon as possible. All of our communications with Marco were so helpful and warm from the moment we booked and Tommaso is the friendliest, kindest and most helpful host. We miss him already! The property is simply stunning. The walk to the bakery could not be dreamier and the views - especially from the windows on the third floor! - are spectacular. Even the tennis courts surrounded by cyprus courts look like a Tuscan fairytale. Chef Donato cooked for us twice and even helped us with a cooking lesson one evening! We went to some of the best restaurants in Rome and Florence and we truly think that his (enormous!) homecooked meals are the absolute best in Italy. Donato is so wonderful and was such a special part of our trip. The house is immaculate with plenty of room. We wished it was warmer to be able to use the pool as it looked so beautiful with such a gorgeous view. I can only imagine what it is like when the weather is warmer! We were 12 people - 6 adults and 6 kids, ages 4-12. We celebrated my mother's special birthday here and it was such a happy and cozy place to do so. The older kids played pool every night and everyone had room to relax after busy days exploring. We were easily able to drive and take the train to Florence. We visited Rome first and it was a quick 2.5 hrs to the villa from there. We also took day trips to Lucca, Pisa, Siena and wine tasting through the Chianti region. While this was an exceptionally beautiful place to stay - a dream! - it was the people that made this a magical, memorable, 3 generation birthday trip for the books. Thank you Tommy, Marco and Chef Donato. We miss you already!!

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.

A perfect holiday!
We had the most fantastic holiday in Villa Maria. This historic and beautiful villa is located in a prime location, high up in the Tuscan hills and the views are spectacular. Every evening we dined outside on the terrace, watching the amazing sunsets. The villa is spacious and furnished in a style suited to its age, set in lovely gardens with a tennis court, swimming pool and a short walk into the village. We had arranged for chef Donato to cook for six nights and we were so glad we did, I would highly recommend him. Each evening we sat down to quite literally a Tuscan banquet and there was always plenty of food left over for the next day. Marco was always very prompt and helpful in replying to our messages before our arrival and once there, we had the pleasure of meeting his son Tommaso who is an excellent host. He was extremely helpful and patient, answering any questions we had and ensuring we had the best time. We spent a very pleasant evening chatting to him about the history of the villa and life in Tuscany. One particularly memorable evening for us was the day that Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II passed away. We ate one of Donato’s delicious dinners on the terrace, watching a beautiful sunset whilst listening to the National Anthem and raising a glass to all those not with us. A holiday never to be forgotten!

The reviews for this property indicated the pictures don’t do it justice and we absolutely agree with that. We constantly marveled at the incredible, expansive view from the villa. The villa itself seemed right out of a movie set of what a Tuscan villa would look like. We had everything we needed. We enjoyed the time we spent with Tommaso and Marco. Chef Donato made two wonderful dinners for us. We were able to convince Marco to join us for dinner one night and he graciously and with good humor answered our many questions about Italy, winemaking, olive oil making and so much more.
