Casa di Dante Villa for rent in Pisa area

Casa di Dante is a lovely, spacious house with far reaching views over the Tuscan countryside. It is an easy 25 minute drive from Pisa airport and a 20 minute downhill walk from the charming village of Vicopisano which has a rich architectural history and a cluster of small shops to cater for basic needs such as a supermarket, a chemist and a cafe bar. We were a family of six adults plus a one year old and the owners, who live next door, couldn't have been more helpful from our arrival to our departure. Provisions for our grandson were excellent and included a high chair, a travel cot and numerous toys to play with around the pool area. The house was very well equipped and clean with plenty of storage space in each bedroom and bathroom. The pretty garden area was perfect for outdoor dining and the swing seat near the barbecue proved to be a lovely spot for relaxing and enjoying the views. We were impressed with the size of the pool and there were plenty of loungers, tables and parasols. During our stay we visited Florence by train, a 45 minute journey from the local station at Pontedera, the town of San Gimigiano, a 90 minute drive through beautiful countryside and certainly worth seeing and also the impressive walled city of Lucca just a 30 minute drive from Casa di Dante. Some guests may wish to note that there are many steps both inside and outside the villa but for us the location was just perfect and the owners and their family made us feel so welcome. We had a wonderful holiday and would happily return to Casa di Dante.

We were 4 couples, 3 from United States and 1 couple from Italy and we all loved our stay at Casa Di Dante. Check-in was breeze, we were greeted by the family that owns the property and they were very welcoming and helpful. Tommasi was easy to reach by cell and always very helpful with information. The home itself was very clean, and well equipped and we just loved the pool. During our stay the weather was hot and the pool was our oasis, always clean and very refreshing. The view from the home was amazing and the local town of Vicopisano had just about everything you would need. Large grocery stores were also close by. The location was perfect, so easy to venture out to visit many other locations. Quick and easy train to Florence and cinque terre, easy car ride to Pisa, Volterra, Lucca and Lajatico to see Andrea Bocelli and many other amazing places. Overall we all really enjoyed our stay at Casa Di Dante and wished we could of stayed longer, wouldn\\\'t hesitate to stay with them again. Loved it!

Excellent villa well equipped with great pool. Superb location. Thomasso was really helpful with restaurants and recommendations for visits. Very nice welcome pack and overall great villa.

Casa di Dante is a beautiful house, with lovely views overlooking Vicopisano and beyond. It is comfortable and well equipped and was immaculately clean on our arrival. There was also a basket of basic food waiting for us on arrival as well as lots of bottles of water, which was a nice touch. The bedrooms are all a good size and the three upstairs each have modern and well equipped en suite bathrooms. The kitchen is also well equipped with a Nespresso coffee machine and lots of capsules left to enjoy. The terrace and pool areas are lovely too and the pool was cleaned regularly which was great. It is a 20 minute walk down into Vicopisano, though pavements are lacking so you have to keep your wits about you on the roads! Vicopisano was slightly smaller than we had expected but does have a couple of cafe's, a gelateria, pizzeria and small supermarket amongst a couple of other shops. The family who own the villa and live nearby could not have been more welcoming or friendly throughout our stay and were always on hand if we had any questions. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay; it was a great place for a family holiday and from which to explore other parts of Tuscany!
