Villa Aquila is in a stunning location, surrounded by nature: a lovely garden, big lawns, and tall trees line the property. The main villa can host up to 6 guests, and adjoining cottage can host another 5 guests. For privacy the cottage is rented only with the villa.


The villa is an easy drive from Florence about 40 minutes. The nearest train station in Figline Valdarno is a 10 minute drive and we found it makes the trip into Florence easy

This villa is on the luxurious Vecchietto Estate, a sprawling property that offers tennis courts and pools, bike tours and excursions, yoga lessons, and traditional cooking courses. On the property is a bistro and shop with local wine and other finel local products. We enjoyed a fine lunch here when inspecting. A shuttle is available for local trips.


The estate is located in the coveted Arno Valley, between the towns of Reggello and Figline Valdarno. It is an excellent home base to explore all the Tuscany has to offer. Figline Valdarno has shops, supermarket, restaurants and a handy train station.


The picturesque town of Reggello is known for its abundance of agricultural products. Also nearby Greve and Gaiole, famous for their Chianti wines.


Some of the interesting local sites to visit are the towns of Pontassieve, the Castle of Sammezzano, and the Vallombrosa Abbey.


For fashion enthusiasts the famous The Mall is nearby, where tourists and Italians alike find top designer fashion at a discount from the major fashion brands Gucci, Salvatore Ferragamo, Dior, Prada, Todd, Loro Piana, and more.


Exterior

Villa Aquila is a classic Italian countryside villa. With a sleek white exterior and traditional green shutters, this villa combines regional charm with luxury and comfort.


Interior

The large living room in the villa is a perfect gathering place for cozy evenings by the fireplace, or warm afternoons lounging on the sofas. On the ground floor also find an elegant dining room with period furniture; a fully-equipped kitchen with original ceramic tile decoration, and a powder room.


On the second floor, there are three spacious bedrooms, each with stunning views of the villa grounds. An additional living room on this level offers a nice place for other gatherings. Each bedroom is air conditioned.

Worth the Wait

by The Gordons

Our 2020 vacation that was delayed until 2022 was worth the wait. Marvelous stay at this fine property, convenient location for exploring the region by car & even a day trip to Florence by train. Little train station in nearby town was handy for that. Service was impeccable as was housekeeping. Onsite restaurant excellent. This was our third time booking with Italy Perfect and they've never steered us wrong.

Excellent Family Gathering

by Jerry

Not only is the villa beautiful, the service was excellent. Our stay here is a milestone in our family history as we gathered to enjoy each other, good food and rambling around Tuscany. Some relaxed on the property. Young adults took the train into Florence. Super. Italy Perfect’s service is, as it says, perfect.
