Reviews of Ripabuia

Swimming pool is great. Very good location for exploring Tuscany. Vertical helpfull and friendly Staff. Good price and great wine.

Room is a bit dark without and view, but the swimming pool is great.

This place is a beautifully preserved old Tuscan building with rustic charm, surrounded by vineyards and serene nature. I stayed in two different rooms due to timing, both rooms were cozy, well maintained, spotless, and perfectly sized for a solo traveler. One had direct backyard access to the parking spot, super convenient. Too bad the pool was closed due to seasonal timing and rainy weather. Giuseppe, the host, was friendly and attentive. I would recommend this place overall. You will get a bottle of wine as a welcome gift :)

Amazing architectural history. The room was beautiful and the upstairs room was part of a medieval tower from around 1020 AD I believe. Giovanni and his wife Anna were lovely hosts - they even provided us with a bottle of their own made wine. The pool is glorious and the location really makes you feel in rural southern Tuscany yet is very accessible to nearby communities including Florence. Amazing value for the money

Cars come really fast through the narrow street right along the house

It provides a relaxing environment in a quiet rural area. Restaurants, grocery stores and towns for sightseeing are short drives away. We cooked many of our meals and had everything we needed to do so. The property has a nice pool.

Nothing

The property is on the top of the hill with grapevine and olives. The house is gorgeous and it’s like a museum with beautiful old and good taste stuff. We felt amazing. The garden is very big and the pool looked amazing though we didn’t have time to try it. Many tables and sunbeds in wich you can enjoy a glass of the most tasteful wine in the entire world.The view is like a postcard 360 . Giovanni was very responsive and kind. He explained everything about the house and was very helpful. Strongly recommend and for sure we will be back someday!

The apartment I stayed in had kitchen facilities and it was simply a matter of strolling along a country lane for 10 mins to buy supplies from the local bottega. Best coffee in Italy from the lovely owners of the bottega, along with an exquisite view of Tuscany from their back deck . My room at the farmhouse had three different views and plenty of room for a family . Giovanni and Anna were very nice hosts .

The heating was an extra cost and we didn't know how to work it, though we should have just asked the host who was very helpful.

Really great pleace in the middle of Tuscany. Best as base for short trips: Florence, Siena, Piza or even Pienza or whole Chianti region. Charming greeting from Giovanni (owner), with detailed list of suggessted places to visit in nearest area, restaurants ready to feed you, and many other useful informations. Fully equipped kitchen, and the best of the best: top of 3 levels in our apartment with view around on hills with vineyards and olive trees. Clean pool with a lot of space for everyone is an additional bonus. Sleeping in XIV century tower has it own historical value. Thank you Giovanni!

Weather could be better ;)

The location, the settings, the garden. We were in a room without a kitchen but there was a kettle with tea and wine in the room. There's also a little fridge. Giovanni was a great and very friendly host.

Absolutely everything!

Giovani was very helpful from the questions prior to our stay and during. he prepared recommendations on restaruants and atractions in the near area. all was very good.

Giovanni was an exceptional host and was very good at communicating in advance of the stay and during the stay. He even gave us a bottle of his homemade wine which we enjoyed. The room had everything you needed including a fridge, kettle and aircon unit. The pool was big and great to swim in, with plenty of sunloungers to use. We enjoyed dinner at a local restaurant. You need a car to stay here. You are surrounded by nature.

It was sometimes noisy in the bedroom as the cars drive fast past the house. Our room was on the second floor, road side.

Great location, room was extremely clean. Owner was fantastic and had good wines and olive. It was a nice place to relax. Good restaurant nearby. Good parking place.

No wifi at the pool, no cell phone coverage almost on entire property (have tried three different networks). That's why wifi should cover the pool area.

Everything was great, the room was clean. The object is in quiet place, it has everything to relax. There is also a garden. The object has apartments (with kitchen) and only rooms (without kitchen, but with fridge and electric kettle) so pay attention to this while booking your place if you are planing to cook meals. The village (Marcialla) has two restaurants and in July there is local celebration and every night there are some musicians and some street food. Nearby villages have train and bus station which are great to have a daily trip to Siena and Florence. The only bad thing is that we didnt have cellphone signal, it was very bad, but the object has free wifi.

Amazing tiramisu was waiting for us in the fridge and a bottle of wine. Huge two storey apartment Clean pool Great location in the heart of Chianti

Lack of a terrace or access to the backyeard to sit in the evenings and sip wine.

Nice host, big and beautiful pool, green surroundings in the tuscany hills, wonderful plants and flowers, free parking, bad and shower was good

Bed was not hard enough and very old, fridge too loud in the night, mosquito net not fully covered the windows

Lovely area and a very friendly and helpful host

great location, close to Florence, Siena, Certaldo, San Gimignano in the heart of Chianti, less then 1.5h from Bologna airport. Kids had a lot of fun in the pool. Very helpful owners, we were welcomed with wine and delicious Tiramisu. Nice kitchen and garden. The house itself has perfect “old Italian” style.

House is very close to the street - however for us it wasn’t a problem.
