Family stay

It was a pleasure staying in Casa Torre. Pleasant little town with amazing people. We were able to visit all the museums and dine close by. Each day we enjoyed walking and sightseeing. Would definitely stay in Casa Torre again.

The experience of staying in Certaldo Alto in this house was absolutely magical! The home is clean, spacious and comfortable. It is central in Tuscany, so perfectly positioned geographically for day trips to Siena, San Gimignano, Florence and many other towns. Also a couple fabulous restaurants inside the castle itself (Ristorante il Castello and L'Antica Fonte among others). Stunning views from the private terrace. We had wine and cheese and watched several sunsets from there. Before the trip I had some challenges communicating with the host, but once we arrived I found that she is very responsive on Whatsapp. Give this place consideration for your trip, you won't regret it!

Great place: fantastic view from the terrace at the top of the tower. Air conditioning would be welcome. Really frustrated that the owner waited the very last day to announce us the addditional fees per extra person!

Perfect Family Spot!

As we were planning our 15-day European adventure with our teens/young adults, we decided to look for a location outside of Florence rather than staying in Florence. When we found it, this unit had only one review so we were hesitant to book a stay…but we are so very glad we took the risk! It was an absolutely perfect 2-night stay for our family! The train from Florence to Certaldo was hot and crowded but once we took the funicular up to Certaldo Alto, we found ourselves away from the crowds of tourists. In fact, the castle community felt like a ghost town when we arrived…actually more like our own personal castle! The unit itself was ideal for our family of 5…the only drawback was the second shower was too short for any of us to use (we are a tall family!). We were able to open all the windows and turn on fans for comfortable breezes during our hot June stay. The owners also provided a full book of information about the community with ideas for day trips and outings. For our day trips, we ended up hiring a driver to take us half of us to San Gimignano (which we loved!) and half took a train to Pisa. We enjoyed a lovely patio dinner at L’Antica Fonte the first night in Certaldo Alto. For the second night, we ordered pizza from Da Messer Boccaccio and took it up to our veranda for the most beautiful sunset dinner. It was the loveliest and most memorable dinner view we enjoyed during our whole 2-week trip. Would 100% recommend!

Poor communication from host, ignores messages, blames problems on others, unit not as described

We stayed in this property in July 2023. Originally booked the property for 5 nights. We advised host 73 days prior to our stay that we needed to shorten to 4 nights. They agreed with this and it was well prior to their 14 day cancel policy. The host did not adjust our reservation in the system and is refusing to respond to messages regarding a refund for the night that we cancelled. VRBO is no help saying that this is the host's responsibility but has asked them to provide us a refund as well. The host also appears to be ignoring VRBO. The host's representative who checked us in also showed up on the revised day of checkout at 10am to ensure we were out of the property and collect the keys, so this is not a miscommunication issue, this is blatant refusal to comply with the terms we agreed to in writing well before the commencement of our stay. In addition to this, the unit is advertised as a 2 bathroom unit. When we arrived we were told both by the host's representative and the post it notes on the 2nd bathroom toilet that it was not working and could not be used. When we asked the host about accommodations for this they were again slow to respond to messages and eventually told us that it was just preferred that we not use it, which was in conflict with the check-in communication. We have pictures showing notes on the toilet indicating it is broken. Lastly the shower in the that bath sprayed all over the floor. I would advise against doing business with this host.
