This was a great stay for our honeymoon. We had some trouble finding the building but a local was very kind in helping us find our way. There is a small hike UP the streets to get to the apartment, so not ideal for some disabilities. We loved the view and the feel of the city. We hope to return to Montecatini!
Wer auf Luxus setzt, ist hier falsch.
Wer hingegen auf rustikales toskanisches Flair und Ruhe steht, ist hier richtig.
Das Apartment hat alles, was man braucht, ist urgemütlich und der Ausblick ist grandios.
Der Ort ist wunderschön. Klein aber mit allem, was man braucht.
Von hier aus erreicht man alle Top-Spots in der Toskana in akzeptabler Zeit mit dem Auto.
Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit und können das Apartment nur weiterempfehlen.
Wir fanden die Unterkunft wunderschön. Der Ausblick war traumhaft - Toskana pur - und der altertümliche Flair des alten Gemäuers hat uns sehr gefallen. Das mittelalterlich anmutende Dorf und seine freundlichen Bewohner werden uns in bester Erinnerung bleiben. Wir überlegen jetzt schon wann wir das nächste Mal wieder hinfahren können. Absolut zu empfehlen. Nur bei eingeschränkter Mobilität ist diese Unterkunft nicht geeignet, da die Wohnung über einen steilen, dafür jedoch umso schöneren Aufstieg zu erreichen ist. Wir freuen uns auf das nächste Mal!
The apartment is a charming studio with a lovely view over Val di Cecina. It was clean and beautifully presented. Montecatini is a small town on top of a hill with very narrow cobbled streets. It has two restaurants and a bar. It also has a bakery, a grocery shop and a pharmacy. It has a market on Friday. It is an ideal point from which to explore Tuscany Volterra is quite close and all the major cities of the region are within two hours drive. It's important to be aware that accessing the studio involves a steep climb through a part of the town and then up the stairs in the building in which the apartment is located. It's well worth it but might not suit if suffering from a disability.
A comfortable short stay of four nights combining Bocelli, beach, site seeing and Tuscan food tasting.

Toller Ausblick und schöne Lage
Wir sind ganz begeistert von unserer Woche dort. Sicher einer der schönsten Orte die ich je gesehen habe. Man muss etwas weit zum Meer fahren, aber das haben wir ja gewusst. Leider gabs den versprochenen Garten und den Tisch zum draußen Frühstücken nicht, aber der Ausblick entschädigt sehr!!
Alles in allem ein toller Urlaub, nette Menschen die einem gerne helfen. Die Wegbeschreibung war nicht sehr gut. Ganz liebenswert war auch Frau Molesti obwohl sie kein Deutsch oder Englisch spricht! Wer Geckos mag ist dort gut aufgehoben :)

Magical
If, as a couple, you are looking for a few days total tranquillity after fighting your way through the scrum of tourists in the Tuscan hotspots like Florence and Sienna or on your way back to Pisa airport from Venice then this is exactly what you need to book.
Comfortable, clean and a little quirky Zita's apartment is wonderful and with a view like this every day it works on every level.
If you feel like cooking you can and it is well appointed with crockery, cutlery, glassware and kitchen utensils. Overnight parking is a short walk away but temporary parking is only yards away. The village bar is great and the restaurants positively cheap in comparison to the touristic areas.
By all means go to Volterra which is only about 9 kms from here and well worth the effort but you'd be mad to stay there, Montecatini IS the place to stay.
