Amazing stay. Alessandro and his wife Liliana were such welcoming and gracious hosts. You definitely need to take them up on their in house Tuscany dinner offer - it was magnificent. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and perfect for our 2 couples - it even has extra room for another couple or children. Highly recommend staying here - you will love it!
I cannot rave enough about the property, the location, or the wonderful hosts. My wife and I spent the tail-end of our honeymoon here and it was simply perfect.
Allesandro and his wife were simply the best hosts one can ask for, providing amazing recommendations, always available to contact for assistance or advice and taking immense joy and pride in their city and the region.
We wish we could have stayed longer and will certainly be coming back as soon as we can.
Thank you for hosting our family! We enjoyed authentic stay in your home. It was a base for our trip in Tuscany which was very convenient. Loved the fact that there were not many tourists around. We would come back again! Thank you, Alessandro and Liliana!
We had an amazing stay at Alessandro and Liliana’s place. The check in process made us feel very welcome with excellent advice on things to do and a full tour of the features of the amazing property. The house is well-equipped and situated within a great village- all you expect from Tuscany but without having been over-touristed. Some great local restaurants and swimming spots. Alessandro and Liliana are super friendly and hospitable and we will be recommending their place to others.
Unique property from the late 1800's. Lots of room overall but 2nd bathroom is very small. Lots of stairs to reach the home from the private parking spot. Great hosts and wonderful home made dinner prepared by hosts at the property.
We very much enjoyed our stay at Casa Anna. Spacious, beautiful and very convenient for walking to bars, cafes and restaurants in Colle. Amazing views and we loved the terrace! The place served as a great home base for local exploring as well as trips to Siena and San Gimignano, as well as a great wine tasting at Agriturismo Cesani. Alessandro and Liliana were beyond helpful and friendly. The private parking was a challenge to my driving skills but made life so much easier! Grazie mille to you both!!!
So much history and beautiful things to see. Amazing views and close to so many great sights. We traveled from there to Florence, Siena and many other Tuscan locations, but was able to call it ‘Home’ at night. Cooking in was nice too. Large patio to relax. Very casual. We were blessed to have nice weather. Allesandro and Lilliana were very responsive of our every question and recommended several things to do. Will look forward to a return visit when it allows.
My husband and I plus another couple spent 3 nights at the lovely Casa Anna. Alessandro and Liliana were there to greet us and give us a tour of the property. There was plenty of room for the four of us (3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a full kitchen, and dining room) plus a scenic terrace for us to enjoy and relax at the end of the day. Colle di Val d’Elsa was the perfect location for touring the hill towns of Tuscany. The hosts were a wealth of knowledge making suggestions as to what to see in the area. They will also cook for you - we thoroughly enjoyed a 5 course feast!
Large rooms, plenty of space. Early 19th century decor which adds a slower paced appeal. Patio has a nice setting that overlooks the valley. Good Cafe across the street opens at 0530. Street noise can be bothersome in the morning and evening as a lot of traffic goes down the hill into town or getting to highway.
Casa Anna was a delight, a step back in time with its decorated ceilings, tessellated floor tiles, and precious family heirloom furniture. Alessandro and Liliana were the perfect hosts, and were justifiably proud of their ancestral home. They were on the doorstep to welcome us, and show us around the spotlessly clean accommodation (and secret cellar!) Casa Anna is in an unspoiled Tuscan village with vibrant restaurants and the BEST patisserie across the road. We wish we could have stayed much longer :)
Our experience at Casa Anna was the best we’ve ever had when traveling. We’ve stayed in 5+ rentals in 3 countries and this was by far the best. The hosts Alessandro and Liliana were very welcoming, kind, helpful and amazing. They made our trip so wonderful. They helped us to pick the best places in town to eat as well as best places to visit. They provided many unique experiences for us to enjoy that you cannot get anywhere else. Plenty of space for many people in the home. It was across the street from the best bakery, Mario Barone. You will not regret staying here. It was a true home away from home.
Casa Anna is an amazing home with a lot of history that hosts Alessandro and Liliana are more than happy to share. The period pieces, great location and wonderful views from the large terrace make this the perfect place to stay in Tuscany. It is close to both Florence and Siena, as well as to smaller towns including Volterra and San Gimignano. The hosts graciously provide a wealth of helpful information about the area. The private parking area is an added bonus. Be sure to check out the amazing bakery across the street and the nearby restaurants within walking distance. This is by far one of the best places to stay in this area of Tuscany and we cannot wait to return to Casa Anna on our next trip. Thank you Alessandro and Liliana for your hospitality. We are grateful for having the opportunity to stay in your wonderful home.
We feel so lucky to have found Casa Anna in the wonderful city of Colle Di Val D'Elsa for our first ever trip to Italy. Alessandro and Lilliana made every step, from booking to departure, a pleasure. They made us feel at home in their home. Casa Anna is exactly as pictured. It was a very large, clean and comfortable space for 3 adults including 3 spacious bedrooms and 2 full baths. We were so close to many delightful places in Colle (the coffee shop and bakery across the street, the piazza just down the street, and great shops). It is a quick and easy drive to Sienna, if that is on your list of things to do. As other guests have commented, it is a must to take advantage of their home cooked Tuscan dinner. So fresh, so delicious and such fun, the eggplant parmesan is a must try! We made lifelong memories due to our wonderful hosts and the beautiful city of Colle. Grazie mille
A wonderful glimpse into an elegant home of the past
Alessandro and his wife are so proud of this beautiful home from their family past, and rightly so. We drove to Tuscany from the airport and after multiple delays we were so tired and it was getting dark. But Alessandro doesn't let anything faze him, he was with us on the phone guiding us on "What's App", and even met us in the middle of a fork in the road to have us follow him into the car park at the back of the house. He and his wife proudly gave us a tour of the home and told us the little quirks to avoid in an older home and made you feel like a friend coming to visit. It is modernized where it is important and you are left with the beauty. What a wonderful way to begin our first day. We loved the history in the house, our hosts, the town and the surrounding area. We went to Rome for the final part of our trip. We loved Rome but missed Colle. If you want a wonderful experience in an old city with great hosts this is the one for your family. Just the view from the kitchen window took our breath away. It is very hilly and I could not handle some of the longer walk up hill, but we had a the car and we managed just fine. A small note, which is a really a matter of preference, was that the beds were very hard. If that is a deal breaker for you then it might matter. For us, just living in this lovely home from the past in this beautiful country even for a matter of days was incredible.
Beautiful apartment with stunning views over the valley, in a gorgeous hilltop town. Bakery opposite sold delicious products. Hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming and offer a truly amazing home cooked meal should you wish.
Had an absolutely magical stay in Casa Anna! Our family of 6 fully enjoyed the spacious and inviting apartment, including the play room for the kids and the terrace with bbq. Everything was just perfect, and Alessandro and Liliana were just the most kind and welcoming hosts. We even used the communal pool in town, and the kids loved it. The actual town is just so charming, and there are many excellent restaurants. I’d recommend this place to anyone and fully intend to stay there again when in the area. 15 out of 10!
This was an amazing property! The hosts were always available to answer questions or help when needed. The home itself was a very large place. Plenty of light with its windows over the front street with a balcony as well as out the back over the Tuscan countryside which had a very large patio. Colle is a mixture of the original medieval town where the home was and then down the hill was a newer modern area with every amenity you would ever need. Everything you would need is an easy walk of only a few minutes from the home, or you can drive if you don’t want to walk. Plenty of restaurants for dining all day long. The hosts, Alessandro and Liliana, were very welcoming from the initial reservation through check out when we left. Great communication made the entire stay very easy. We felt like family when we left, they treated us so nicely. We want to return in the future for a longer stay.
Four generations of my family felt this was their home away from home. The location gives easy access to the sights of Tuscany. Best of all are the warm and generous hosts...Lilian and Alessanndro.
We enjoyed our stay in Colle di Val d’Elsa. There were only 2 of us in a 3-bedroom house - we didn’t need that much space but were happy to stay in such a comfortable traditional home. We especially enjoyed the huge terrace with its views over the town.
We loved our stay at Casa Anna! We were privileged to stay in such a historic building in a beautiful town! It is a convenient location to Siena, San Gimignano and Florence, but without all the tourist activity. We have a lovely meal atop the castle turret in town and really enjoyed the evening on the patio! Alessandra was extremely gracious, and the home has a wonderfully peaceful spirit! Thank you - we loved it!
You cannot stay at a nicer place while in Tuscany. This place is perfect. Alessandro is available for any questions and is helpful. The house is located near everything.
Casa Anna was a great place to stay in Tuscany. The apartment is large and comfortable and has a beautiful terrace. There is a fantastic pasticceria just up the street as well as many great restaurants to walk to. The hosts, Alessandro and Liliana, were exceptionally warm, welcoming and helpful. We enjoyed their friendliness and responsiveness and all of their suggestions for restaurants and things to do in the area. We highly recommend.
