My fiance and I stayed only for two nights but we are really happy about our stay. First and foremost, the hosts, Terry and Marchello, were fabulous. They truly take care of you and make sure that you are having a great time. In fact, they may be the funniest couple I've met in a long time... I should also... More

We decided to return to Casa Portagioia after spending our honeymoon there in 2009. We were looking for 4 nights of peace and relaxation in beautiful surroundings to escape from the rain and misery of the UK. Our expectations were high based on our fabulous honeymoon and we didn't think perfection could be improved upon, but it was. Small details... More

Words cannot adequately express what a wonderful experience we had with Terry and Marcello at Casa Portagioia. Their place is breathtaking! We (6 Texans!) were geniunely welcomed upon arrival. Our gracious hosts provided great food, a relaxed atmosphere and recommendations and reservations for our excursion to Florence. Thank y'all! More

We recently stayed at this beautiful Tuscan retreat for 5 days in April. There are not enough superlatives in the English language to add any that have not already been used by other reviewers. From the moment of arrival to the moment of departure, our experience exceeded already high expectations. We were met by Terry who immediately used his dry... More

We truly enjoyed our time at Casa. Actually before booking this hotel, we were planning to stay at Florence for the location and easy access to everywhere. Fortunately, we decided on Casa after hearing many good reviews about it and we have to testify that all the reviews are true. From the moment we arrived at Casa, we felt already... More

We were lucky enough to stay for 5 nights at Casa Portagioia recently. We loved every minute of our time at this beautiful place. From the moment we arrived, our wonderful hosts Terry and Marcello could not do enough for us. From their helpful advise when organising our daily trips around the countryside, to the delicious breakfast and even to... More

We cannot say enough about our experience at Casa Portagioia. Both Marcello and Terry were wonderful hosts. Their kindness was genuine, and the location was everything that I envisioned Tuscany to be. The food was excellent, and we will be raving about our stay there to anyone that will listen to us. The attention to detail was like nothing we... More

My wife, daughter, son and I took a 6-day break at Casa Portgioia during our Italy vacation last month (March 2012). While I was recommended this place by a friend, we didn't expect the amazing time we had staying at the Casa. From our wonderful hosts, Marcello and Terry, to the beautiful countryside the Casa is set in, to its... More

This review is way overdue as our stay at Casa Portagioia was in October 2011. Of course, there really is little to add to the many many positive reviews already contributed, but I wanted to just add a brief comment on the Facebook posting. I am thoroughly enjoying the frequent posting of pictures and notes on the status of my... More
