Perfect location and beautiful bedrooms

I have rented many villas and this stay was up there among the best. Wonderful villa, everything was clean and worked properly and I can’t emphasize enough how great the location was. When you stay there go to Casa Newton for cocktails, beautiful boutique hotel a six minute drive away.

Tuscan retreat

We had a group of 11 stay and could not have loved our time more. The location was a great central spot to drive to different towns. We loved relaxing by the pools in the afternoons and our dinners al fresco. An incredible place to spend your vacation.

Tuscany dream vacation!

Our extended family travelled to Tuscany for two weeks and this property was everything we hoped for. The views are amazing, the main villa and casitas have plenty of amenities. the host Mariacristina provided great suggestions for groceries, places to visit and restaurants around the area. Highlights of our trip included a winery tour, day trips to Florence, Montepulciano, Pienza, Siena and Rome (to name a few), a cooking class at the villa and plenty of time lounging by the pool admiring the local surroundings. Thanks for such an amazing vacation!

Tuscan Haven

Fantastic stay in beautiful property . Best villa we’ve stayed in and we’ve stayed in many. Good bathrooms and good kitchen equipment here .These two things have let other properties down. Nice quality glassware and cutlery , not the usual mismatch. Villa is in peaceful location , yet handy for the lovely town of Montepulciano and its restaurants and supermarket . Excellent, easy communication with Mariecristina . Highly recommended

"Hostess With The Mostest"

Nine of us spent a wonderful week at Villa II Gelso. It was as lovely as the description and accommodated both our group activities and meals, as well as plenty of spots to get away from the group with a book or a nap. But the real jewel was our hostess, Mariacristina. For the year leading up to our trip there she patiently answered a ton of questions, always responding within hours of our emails. She gave us some great recommendations and helped arrange a visit to De Ricci, an amazing winery, and a chef who came to the villa to make us a couple dinners. She even led a yoga class for us on the grounds! While we were there she was immediately responsive to any of our requests. She had described her villa to me as "shabby chic" and I would add to that extremely cozy and welcoming.

I gave Villa IL Gelso and Mariachristina my highest 5 star rating.

Wow - I don't know where to begin. We absolutely loved the time we spent here. The Villa was exactly as described - rustic, private, clean, peaceful, comfortable and with all the modern conveniences. It was hot for a few weeks and the air conditioning worked great. The location is 15 minutes to Montepulciano and even less time to Pienza. Close enough to food shopping and anything else you need, but far enough away to really sense that you are in the Tuscany countryside. The grounds and pool are well maintained and the views and sunsets are amazing. The cleaning crew came every Saturday to change towels, sheets and do a thorough cleaning of all 3 houses. Mariacristina was a great host and always made herself available for questions, recommendations and any minor issues that came up. We hired a cook to come twice and our entire family had a wonderful time and the food was absolutely delicious. I gave Villa IL Gelso and Mariachristina my highest 5 star rating. Thank you so much for a unforgettable vacation.

Beautiful Villa located in a wonderful environment

We stayed with our family clan at the Villa Gelso and had a perfect time. Villa and pool are brand new and furnished and decorated with a lot of taste. It was very clean and spacious. The surrounding is very beautiful and the view is breathtaking. Mariachristina is an sympathy and engaged host. We can recommend this location without any restrictions.

Amazing location - great host

The home and cottages were perfect for our family trip of 10 adults. The view of Montepulciano from the patio, the pool, the property itself all amazing! Amazing location for day trips throughout Tuscany - Florence, San G, etc… easily accessed.Nathan is an AMAZING HOST - everything we needed from groceries ahead of time to restaurant reservations, tour guides that were all terrific. He was so helpful. Simply outstanding host!!Opportunity for perfection? Tune up the air conditioning units and trim the mulberry tree in courtyard. Otherwise, simply amazing. Couldn’t go wrong staying here.

Chill Tuscan Vibes with Friendly, Easy Communication

We really loved staying at Villa Il Gelso. Mariacristina was super communicative before the trip, answering all our questions quickly and making planning easy. Once we arrived, she had others checking in with us to make sure everything was going smoothly, which was nice and took the pressure off.The villa itself is gorgeous—comfortable, stylish, and with amazing views. The pool was perfect for relaxing after days of exploring Tuscany. All in all, a great experience with thoughtful hosts who made sure we had what we needed without being overbearing.Would definitely recommend if you want a beautiful spot and friendly, easygoing communication. Thank you!

Tuscan charm with Modern Furnishings

Villa Il Gelso is a beautiful property with the all the benefits of a quiet countryside location with views of Montepulciano and the modern furnishings you would expect in a city hotel. It all combines for a perfect place to relax in comfort and enjoy the many villages just a short drive away. Our group thoroughly enjoyed the villa and all of the nearby activities that come with it. Mariacristina is a great hostess and was happy to arrange multiple activities including truffle hunting with Pierpaolo, chef nights at the villa with Alessandro, and wine tasting at a small family Brunello estate which was the best winery experience any of us had ever had. She was very attentive to our needs which was much appreciated. We will be back!

Absolutely Magical Tuscan Villa – A True 10 Experience!We rented this beautiful villa for the entire month of May to celebrate my 60th birthday with family and friends. This property was the perfect setting for creating lifelong memories.First and foremost, Mariacristina is hands-down the best host we have ever experienced — and we travel extensively. She is unbelievably responsive, warm, and genuinely friendly. From the moment we inquired until the day we left, she made us feel completely at home. She went above and beyond by providing introductions to a fantastic private chef, a yoga instructor, and a massage therapist. Her care and attention made our stay seamless and special.The location is ideal — nestled in the heart of Tuscany between Montepulciano and Montalcino, with Pienza just a 10-min drive away. We were surrounded by rolling hills, olive groves, and vineyards, yet still within minutes of excellent restaurants, wine bars, and charming towns.The villa strikes the perfect balance between ancient rustic charm and modern comfort. Mariacristina’s renovations and upgrades are amazing — you feel the authentic Tuscan soul of the home while enjoying every modern amenity you could need. The kitchen, living spaces, and bedrooms are spacious and beautifully appointed. The villa and the entire experience exceeded all our expectations. If you’re looking for an authentic, peaceful, and luxurious Tuscan getaway — this is the place. We cannot recommend it highly enough.

The property was stunning with magnificent views of the countryside. The house and cottages were wonderfully maintained. Mariachristina was always available to answer a question (or restock firewood). She made everything easy. I cannot wait to come back to this special place.

Erholsamer Urlaub in traumhafter Lage

Bei unserem Aufenthalt mit 10 Personen, einem Kleinkind und zwei süßen Hunden war bis auf zu wenig Beschattung, speziell am Pool, alles wunderbar! Wir hatten vorsorglich jedoch eigene Sonnensegel von zu Hause mitgebracht, ohne die es auch nicht gegangen wäre. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!!

Vielen Dank an Mariacristina, die sich bewundernswert um unsere Anliegen gekümmert hat. Alles hat einwandfrei funktioniert. Vom WiFi am Pool bis zur Klimaanlage in allen Bereichen. Die Aufteilung mit den separaten Gebäuden war herrlich. Es bietet Platz und eine grosse Freiheit. Die Einrichtung ist super modern. Ich kann einen Aufenthalt in der Villa Il Gelso mit Freude weiterempfehlen.

Wunderbar!

Wir waren mit der „erweiterten“ Familie (6 Erwachsene) für zwei wundervolle Wochen in der Villa Il Gelso. Die Villa mit ihren beiden Cottages ist herrlich geschmackvoll restauriert und ausgestattet. Es fehlt an nichts. Aufgrund des grandiosen Wetters konnten wir den großen Pool ausgiebig nutzen. Landschaft und Aussicht sind traumhaft. Besonders empfehlen können wir auch die Kochkünste von Tuscan Chef Alessandro, der in den beiden Wochen dreimal bei uns war. Insbesondere der Kochkurs mit vier Gängen, inklusive selbstgemachter Pasta (Pici), war ein Riesenspass. Unsere Vermieterin Mariacristina war jederzeit für uns da und hat uns neben Restaurantempfehlungen auch bei der Organisation von Wine Tastings unterstützt. Fazit: herrliche Location für einen wundervollen Urlaub in der südlichen Toskana!
