Casa Vacanze Santa Caterina

Mooie locatie met uitzicht op Siena, ruim appartement met alles wat je nodig hebt.

Het zwembad bevatte veel vliegjes en had wat ons betreft wat vaker schoongemaakt mogen worden.

Io e la mia famiglia abbiamo trascorso qui una settimana. Ci siamo trovati benissimo sia nella casa che con Mery, la signora che gestisce le strutture. L’appartamento l’abbiamo trovato pulitissimo, dotato di tutto propio come indicato nella prenotazione. È stata un’esperienza che consigliamo perché sicuramente molto positiva e speriamo di poter tornare per abbracciare Mery una seconda volta.

Schöne Unterkunft, in der wir uns sehr wohlgefühlt haben. Vom Pool hat man einen tollen Blick über die typisch toskanische Landschaft bis nach Siena und konnte jeden Abend den Sonnenuntergang beobachten. Für uns das absolute Highlight der Unterkunft. Die Wohnung (wir waren in App 1) verfügt über Klimageräte in beiden Schlafzimmern und im Wohnzimmer. Die Klimaanlage kann separat dazugebucht werden (15 € pro Tag). Hinter dem Haus gibt es eine Wiese mit zwei großen Toren, wo unsere Kinder abends Fussball gespielt haben. Für den Pool gibt es einige Spielgeräte (Poolnudeln, Bälle, Wasservolleyballnetz), die im daneben befindlichen Poolhaus untergebracht und nach Belieben entnommen werden dürfen. Absoluter Pluspunkt: Mery ist sehr gastfreundlich und gibt wertvolle Tipps für Ausflüge, Parkplätze etc.

The grounds are clean and the hosts are pleasant. The pool and spa area was great and fantastic views of the hills and hay fields common to that area. It's a decent location if your goal is to visit the nearby cities Iike Siena or San Gimignano and just be out all day.

The air conditioning was an extra charge per day and quite high. I wouldn't have booked this place if I had read the amenities more carefully. Given the high heat during our stay it would have helped to have a more pleasant experience. The apartment we had (La Magnolia) was literally right next to the road and cars are constantly passing even during the night. Not ideal for light sleepers. So you are forced to sleep with the windows closed with earplugs and suffer through 29 degree Celsius room temperature. They could have at least provided fans for the rooms to circulate some air. Sure you could leave the windows open, suffer through the cars, maybe gain a degree or two in temp, but risk getting eaten by mosquitos! Overall the hosts could have put more attention to making sure guests have a pleasant stay.
