We had a really wonderful time at Villa La Fragola and the outside was absolutely beautiful. The pool area has been done to a really high standard and the outdoor shower area is a really nice extra. The owner was very nice and addressed issues (a broken fridge, issue with the pool etc) very quickly and effectively. The only downside of the property was the cleanliness as we felt the standard wasn’t high enough considering the additional cleaning fee we were expected to pay (€100). The bathrooms could do with a bit of a facelift too and whilst the inclusion of towels was good, they were no bigger than a hand towel so bigger towels would be greatly appreciated.
The bunk beds felt a little unsafe. So much so that we wouldn’t let our 6 year old sleep on the top bunk so he had to sleep on the bottom with our three year old. If an additional bar was added, it would be much better as a small child could easily roll through the existing one.
If the cleanliness was addressed, we would be really interested in returning each year. It’s a wonderful place to spend time as a family and explore the local areas. We loved Cortona, Montepulciano and Pienza specifically although a car is needed for ease of access.
