Perfect

This was our second year staying in same apartment. It was so easy and perfectly located, we did not want to risk another location. The hot water has challenges but once I messaged them, they were over in minutes to help. If you have a rental car, this could not be more perfect as the parking is adjacent to the home. Incredible location. Best view of our trip.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Renters be aware: the photos do not match the property.. The bathroom was the most disgusting one I’ve seen in 3 months of traveling in Italy.. mold, mold & mold from the shower curtain that sticks to you whilst showering, the hand held that doesn’t stay put and slides down, more mold around the perimeter of the bathroom. I’m allergic to mold so I was suffering for two days. Then an additional cleaning fee in ‘cash’ was inconveniently shared with us after we booked the property, I understand a cleaning fee but there is no trace of cash so there’s no accountability, seems shady to pocket our cash. Next.. it was so beyond cold in the property my husband and I slept in our clothes to keep warm because they also charge for heat as I discovered from past customer feedback. Remediation of mold is necessary or this property should be shut down it’s extremely inappropriate.

Exactly What I wanted

I was in Tuscany for my son’s wedding in San Giuliano Terme. The week prior to wedding week, I drove solo to Cortona for some me time. The apartment was just what I wanted…the view from the large terrace overlooking Val di Chiana was spectacular. It is a short (uphill) walk to the piazzas and shops. Parking is free just below the apartment outside the city wall. You will need to carry your bag up two flights of steps. The apartment is a short walk from there. I selected Cortona as home base due to location/access to several of the nearby hill towns I wanted to visit. Anghiari (considered one of the most beautiful villages in Italy) and Montepulciano are two favorites. Sienna is lovely as well…bigger and busier. Of note, the apartment is perfect for solo, couples and small families. There is not a living room, but the master bedroom is spacious with a couch/futon. The fabulous terrace for me served as the main living space. Very nice place. Spectacular views. Great location.

I wish we could have stayed longer. The outside patio is worth it alone! However, to get a view, you have to climb. Make sure your knees are strong and your luggage is light.

Amazing!!

We loved absolutely everything about our stay in Cortona! Samantha and Alen were great communicators and made the check in easy. The apartment is perfection! From the tall, shuttered windows, beautiful tiled floors, high ceilings and amazing terrace, it was amazing!! The location couldn’t have been better and the views….. Even though I didn’t really use it, the kitchen was well stocked. All in all- wow!! We didn’t want to leave and hope to be back.

This is a wonderful property in a quiet area, but only a short walk to the piazza and restaurants. The only improvement I would recommend is the shower caddy; all of my travel sized items kept falling out of it.

Cortona Getaway

Quaint, comfortable apartment with spectacular views from patio. Easy walking distance to main square. Alen, the property manager who checked us in was great; a Cortona resident who provided lots of suggestions. Samantha, the owner was also easy to work with and stayed in communication from booking to departure. Highly recommend property and host. For those arriving by train, I would suggest booking a taxi well in advance as they are difficult to arrange. We booked Saban Salijevic who was great! He also does tours.

View and location could not be better.

The biggest problem is that we only stayed two nights. Although Cortona may be off the normal travel route, it has been our favorite town to visit. It is quaint, clean and very welcoming. Alen, who checked us in, was great as he gave perfect recommendations and was available via Whatsapp if we needed anything. If you rent a car, there is parking very, very close by. We did cooking classes at Fattoria Bistecca, which was highlight of trip. 7 km drive.

Best view in Cortona

Our panoramic view from the huge terrace says it all. The valley lights at night were magical. We stayed for a month and caught three different SpaceX satellite launches one week. The basics are there, too. Super comfortable beds and linens, great wifi, clothes washer. The location is perfect, a 5 minute walk to the central piazza. I can't imagine any other property coming close to this.

The main attraction of this apartment is the terrace it is amazing with fantastic views! The rest of the apartment is spacious and comfortable could maybe do with a few more kitchen items a jug for milk and large glass for beer but apart from that it was great. Fabulous location and great restaurants nearby. Cortona is the best place we visited during our week long stay in Tuscany. Highly recommended
