Overall: Villa Carmina is wonderful. There were 13 adults in our party and the villa easily accommodated a group of that size. Enjoyed Most: We were able to return to the villa after excursions to Florence or other Tuscan sites and cool off in the terrific pool. Each of the bedrooms was comfortable and had its own bathroom. Enjoyed Least: One of the bedroom's air conditioner was not working. Editor's Note: The air conditioner is now fully functional. July, 2016. Surrounding Area: The villa is set among vineyards and olive orchards even though it is only a few minutes from the Florence to Siena highway. Nearby Events or Locales: Tavarnelle Val di Pesa is the nearby town - very pleasant to visit, but not walking distance Directions: Since we had multiple cars, we used different GPS systems to find the house. One system (Garmin) did not find the address initially. Check In Out: The owners of the villa are wonderful and helped make our stay very memorable.
