You get rentals set up to make money & those where the property is a one off that the owner has lived in. This is very much the latter & renovated with beautiful taste.Finding it was easy: The green door, left of “Locanda del Gallo”restaurant.First impression: WOW. The porch has a breathtaking view of the valley. You then go through secure doors which lead to big beautiful authentic renovated rooms. A studio, 2 double beds, a kitchen, dining table & lounge. Views: stunning from all rooms but especially the porch & kitchen.Bedrooms: large, high ceilings, comfortable, tastefully furnished & with a great mattresses. Slept well throughout. Would also say the linens etc are good quality.Kitchen: my favourite room in the house. Double aspect with breathtaking views. An expensive kitchen, Really really well equipped. (There was a normal kettle, loose tea kettle, coffee maker & an induction expresso coffee maker. WOW).Lounge: huge room big tv and very comfortable. Again high standard of tasteful decoration.Bathrooms: 2. Small but well equipped & tastefully set up.Other things: WiFi was good, local restaurants & shops are in walking distance. Parking was a bit tricky but you get used to it.An added bonus was Laura the host. I found her the best ever host I have had on VRBO. She had a suggestion to ever need, including finding a neighbour to take one of our group to Pisa airport. I hope to visit again one day. Many thanks to Laura for making it special

The views from the house are amazing. Laura is a great host and very helpful. Will recommend to everyone to stay in this lovely little town.

Loved our stay in Chianni. Laura’s apartment is in a beautiful old property sitting at the top of the hill above Chianni - it’s immaculately clean and very spacious and comfortable, with the stunning views everyone else talks about. (Not sure if there is a shower anywhere with a better view!) We were working here for the week over from London and the house was perfectly equipped for this with Wifi and plenty of working spaces. No air con but we were here in the heat of summer (actually had a severe weather warning while we were here) and the fans in the house worked perfectly. Laura was a great host - checking in to make sure we were comfortable. Chianni itself is very pretty and has restaurants and the friendly Bar Centrale where we had coffee and croissants every morning. All in all a wonderful stay.

We loved staying here! The apartment was beautiful - very comfortable, newly renovated, full of light, and with the best view ever. I couldn’t pass a window without stopping to enjoy the view. Chianni is the perfect village - good restaurants and close to attractions but very quiet. We definitely want to come back!
