September 2010 - Casa Genziana A is very nice place to relax, the house is clean and has all facilities you need.

It is very easy to do day trips to different cities such as Siena, Lucca, Pisa and Florence.

September 2009 - We absolutely adored our stay at Casa Genziana A.

The rooms were larger and more luxurious than we expected. The bathroom was spacious and well equipped. Being able to step outside from our living room to the patio and pool was wonderful.

It was so quiet and peaceful.

The pool area was meticulously taken care of, and very comfortable.

We adored Michela [the owner]. She made us feel right at home. When she showed us our apt., we felt like we'd died and gone to heaven, it was so lovely. She had good tips for where to eat and some other towns to visit. The bathroom was well-equipped, although our hair dryer wasn't working. The grounds and inside were all so well maintained. I would love to return. We slept so well, because it was so peaceful.

We loved our experience with Summer in Italy, and found that when we called, prior to our trip, that our questions were always answered. We have already recommended the web site to several friends.

Hair drier has been fixed, thanks for pointing that out!

Travel tips

  • Just be sure to have a car.
  • Everything was wonderful.
  • If you're eating out, Lucignano is only 4 miles away, and has several wonderful places for dinner.

July 2009 - We are a family of four who just spent a week here and absolutely loved it.

The grounds and swimming pool are beautiful, the location is very peaceful, and the apartment worked perfectly for us.

My husband enjoyed running on the path up to the town of Rigomagno and I really loved biking around the area. And our kids loved the pool.

Travel tips

  • We really enjoyed going to the nearby town of Lucignano in the evening to get dinner and walk around. It's small but after the craziness of Rome and Florence, it was a welcome respite.
  • All the stores are closed on Sunday, so if you need groceries, go on Saturday.

July 2009 - It is just beautiful, the most gorgeous villa. We absolutely loved out stay.

I think the service offered by Summer in Italy is fantastic . We found you on the internet by chance. The service is just excellent.

Travel tips

  • Montepulciano and Cortona were both beautiful. We loved the cafe near the railway station.
  • The pizza oven works really well for home made pizzas.

September 2008 - I have to say this was without a doubt the best place I stayed in on my trip to Italy.

The tranquility and beauty that surrounded my friends and I was more than we had expected. Casa Genziana A is not justified on the web page.You will not want to leave the Casa.

The pool, the olive gardens, lemons trees, the beautiful sunsets and sunrises we got to witness were incredible.

All the amenities you could have and comfort that made Casa Genziana A home from home.

I will remember the Casa for a long time and I am sure I will come back again in the future. I will advise friends and family I know taking a trip to Italy to go there.

Thank you to you all for helping us plan our trip! We were surfing on the net and found your site. You gave good advice and information on where to stay and go in Italy. I have forwarded your mailing address to my friends here in Canada and my family in Ireland. This way they also get to view Italy and you can help them with their trip.

Travel tips

  • Be ready to be spoiled at the Casa, you will not want to leave.
  • Beautiful trails to hike or cycle through, minutes from town, train station, local shopping and many things to see and do...
  • Make sure you have a back up battery for your cameras, you will not be happy if you miss out on sceneries, the vineyards, the rolling hills etc!
  • I loved every minute of it.

July 2008 - The entire family absolutely fell in love with this place from the moment we arrived. The house was rustic, tastefully decorated and really charming. The pool and grounds were stunning. And in addition to the pool, there were lots of things to keep children busy: ping pong table, mini pool table, fuzball table, scooter, and skateboard.

Michela, the owner, was the most helpful and gracious person we dealt with during our trip. She was kind, friendly and really welcoming.

The location was great, close to everything by car.

This place was much more than we were expecting and we can't wait to return one day!

Summer In Italy scored a perfect 10 with this property.

September 2006 - My family had a wonderful experience at Casa Genziana A.

We enjoyed it very much.

Thank you. You've been very professional and I would recommend anyone in the U.S. to use your services as you have been remarkably helpful and kind.

August 2005 - We had a really enjoyable stay at Casa Genziana A. We found the owners most helpful and friendly.

The appartment was beautifully decorated and the cleanliness was a credit to the staff and owners.

The availability of fresh towels and the stock of equipment and goods in the kitchen made the appartment a home away from home.

We would have no hesitation in recommending the property to friends.

August 2005 - We enjoyed Casa Genziana A very much.

It was relaxed, but there was always someone on hand to help if you had a problem.

The facilities were brilliant and the location to nearby towns made travelling about easy and (generally) relaxed.

For the English tourist, it would be useful to know about the nearest large Coop shopping center in Singalunga prior to their arrival. We found it by chance on Saturday evening as we arrived.

We were extremely pleased with the ease of booking and the information you supplied on your web-site. I don't think the process could have been improved. Thanks

July 2005 - This was just a super experience, and probably one of the pest places we have ever stayed. The house is perfectly placed in the middle of lovely surroundings, and close to beautiful sites and city’s, with nearby shopping possibilities and easy access to daytrips.

This was just a way of easy living, as everything did work out perfectly. We could easily have been using another extra week near the pool, in the lovely garden or enjoying preparing our own food in the chefs kitchen.

Definitely not the last time we visit Casa Genziana A ;)

In case of the few questions we did have, we got a fast and prompt answer back from "Summer In Italy". Everything was moving smoothly. You really have a professional service here.

We can just (and are already) advice using this service. Smooth, easy and effectively. Thanks for a nice vacation.

January 2005 - We loved Casa Genziana A. It was beautifully appointed, very comfortable, and in a stunning location. Only 6 km by car to restaurants and a nice grocery store.

Ms. Michela [the owner] was a charming and helpful hostess and made us feel very welcome. She lived speaks excellent English.

Summer in Italy had not only the best prices on the internet, but gave us some of the best customer service we have ever encountered. We would most definitely recommend you to others, as well as rent through you when we return to Italy.

August 2004 - A perfect stay was obtained here, far exceeding our expectations and I would rate both the villa and the owner 10/10. Many thanks.

I have to say that you have proved yourselves to be one of the best agents I have ever dealt with and your correspondence both before and after our holiday are second to none. I can honestly say I see no area of your business that requires improvement,a rare statement these days.

I will be strongly recommending you to family and friends and hope to be using your services again in the near future

Unfortunately, Casa Genziana A can not be booked at this time.

We would love to help you find a suitable alternative. Please be in touch for personal advice from our staff!
