We stayed a week in March and had an absolutely amazing time. Ricardo and Susanna are gracious hosts. Donielo, the property host, greeted us and took care of our every need. The property is gorgeous, the views are amazing and the front apartment was perfect for our family of 3. Our 4 year old son enjoyed watching the horses, playing... More

We just finished a beautiful week at Santa Maria a Poneta in Tuscany. Riccardo & Susanna were terrific hosts and we had everything we needed for a fabulous time in Italy. 30 miles from Florence, Siena and 30 minutes from Volterra and San Gimigniano. Pisa was an easy 1.5 hours. We had 2 rooms - my parents in one and... More

We spent a week with Susanne and Ricardo in mid-March and believe it would be hard to find a more relaxing, comfortable and beautiful place to call "home". Their spot is tranquil and extremely well-kept with attention to every detail, including periodic check-ins to ensure we were well taken care of. The location is lovely and very centrally located, enabling... More

Would highly recommend. After much searching on the internet we found this lovely apartment located in the middle of the area we wanted to explore. We enjoyed returning to the apartment each evening, having a relax and swim by the pool, then dinner. We stayed for 8 nights which was plenty of time to discover the region. We rented the... More

S.M. a POneta è veramente un posto bellissimo. Già quando si apre il cancello che dà accesso all aproprietà, e si entra nel lungo viale delimitato dai cipressi, in fondo si scorgono le torri di San Gimignano, nei pascoli i cavalli tranquilli e sereni... il cuore riposa. More

What a wonderful place to stay. I don't even know where to begin. The property is perfect. Absolutely no complaints. We (2 adults and a 1 year old) stayed in the Barberino apartment and it was everything we hoped it would be. Very spacious, great patio, wonderful furnishings, etc. This apartment was great for us, but could easily fit a... More

WOW!!! If you are looking for a Tuscany experience and hospitality that is top of the line than this is the place. Riccardo and Suzanne go out of there way to ensure you trip to Tuscany is all you want it to be. We asked for help with private cooking lessons, tours of historic wine cellars as well as state...

The property was really fantastic. We are a family with an 18 month baby, he adored playing in the garden, playing in the pool, and visiting the horses every morning. We didn't even need to head out to explore to have a great time with him! The apartment was lovely (we stayed in the Vico apartment). Perfect for a couple... More

We stayed at the Santa Maria a Poneta for a week in August. We had the San'Appiano appartment that is just perfect for a couple. A nice and well maintained little appartment with a nice bedroom, a small sitting room, a well appointed kitchenette and a bathroom. Everything clean and welcoming. The only small negative point is that there is... More
