Happy Times at Villa Felice
by Roy N.Villa Felice was perfect for our extended family. Spent time sightseeing in the mornings and poolside in the afternoons. Excellent location for exploring the region which included a day trip into Florence with a private tour guide arranged by Italy Perfect, a shopping excursion to the luxury outlet mall nearby which made our teenage daughters happy, Chianti wine tasting in Greve. We had the perfect experience, thank for your guidance on choosing Villa Felice.
Exceeded Expectations
by The JaspersWe chose this villa for the good facilities and it exceeded our expectations. Fine and comfortable accommodations for everyone. The gated estate is very quiet and peaceful, but a quick trip into Rignano for shops and local eateries. We needed fuss-free relaxation and it was delivered. This is a good central starting point for visiting all over Tuscany. Note 3 stories, no elevator. We recommend.
