Overall: We enjoyed the home tremendously and we loved the village of Crespina. The pool and al fresco dining really made the home a perfect getaway. The location was quite nice--close for easy drives to Florence, Cinque Terre, Pisa, etc. Enjoyed Most: The pool and grounds. Enjoyed Least: We hired the private chefs recommended by RentVillas. They were nice, but I felt that the meals were just OK. I am Italian and feel I could have prepared better meals. Surrounding Area: The village of Crespina is lovely. I enjoyed the little village market/store. The owners were lovely and always helpful. We picked up amazing produce, meats and cheeses there, as well as wine. Tips or Restaurants: There is a neighbor dog that barks, but you get used to it. Directions: Our GPS did not pick up signal, unfortunately.
