In a bucolic area of Tuscany lies the luxury vacation villa for rent Saracino. Originally a 16th-century convent, this fascinating Italian holiday home can be rented on a weekly basis. Set at approximate five kilometres from the small town of Sarteano, at ten kilometres from the highway connecting the property to Florence and Rome, the geographical location makes this high end accommodation even more appealing.
The sixty-five hectares of private land surrounding the property is beautifully shaped by cypresses trees at the entrance, olive trees and vineyards, lined among pleasant pathways that allow immersing in the sweetest nature Tuscan countryside can offer.
The large porch facing the poolside is defined by arches, testifying to the antique fascinating structure, creating a modern layout of the outdoor spaces.
The garden is embellished by a violet and white colour palette of a variety of flowers creating the perfect picture frame for the giant oak tree lying right at the centre of the garden. In such a magic atmosphere, at a distance, a tiny old-centuries church emerging from the cultivated fields evokes the old presence of a pathway that used to connect the two buildings for the nuns’ daily visits.
Saracino is composed of the main villa hosting six bedrooms, and the guest house hosting one bedroom for a total of 500m2.
The interiors have been tastefully renovated in 2021 by the designer who desired a modern style combined with a few traditional items. All the bedrooms are equipped with air conditioning, TV and elegant en suite bathrooms beautifully decorated by travertine marble.
The main villa boasts a gym, and an indoor splash pool with hydro massage, while the guest house is equipped with a billiard room.
On request, the cook can prepare delicious Italian dishes including pizza traditionally cooked in the outdoor pizza oven. From villa Saracino, it is possible to visit the Val d’Orcia area in a few minutes drive, Pienza in forty minutes, and Siena in one hour.

Comments:
Positives: The building itself was a work of art. You can feel it as you move through the rooms. The owners did a magnificent restoration. Original features have been preserved and you only have to look up to see wood beams or other stunning architecture. The lighting throughout is well planned. The exterior and landscaping light makes for spectacular photos of the villa and grounds at night. There are wonderful large windows on one side that swing open allowing you to step outside or just take in the stunning and expansive views. Speaking of views, we couldn’t get enough of them. The ever-changing light of the Tuscan skies, the mist in the early mornings and the setting sun, painting the skies beautiful pastel colours, never got old.
We appreciated the housekeeper, Isabelle. She was a delight. Always smiling and as helpful as she could be. We don’t speak Italian and she doesn’t speak English. Thank goodness for Google Translate! She does an excellent job. It was always nice to arrive back to the villa and see your bed made up to perfection and the bathrooms cleaned.
There are many amenities to enjoy at this villa. The pool is large, the gardens have roses, lavender, rosemary, etc. We made good use of the gym and inside spa pool. There were many spaces to gather but our favourite was the loggia. This covered outside space was where we had almost all meals and gathered throughout the day. It afforded shade and a breeze when it was hot in the day and at night, it was well lit and with all the candles provided, created a romantic setting for a late dinner.
Our guests appreciated their bedrooms, each decorated and furnished differently and their own bathroom. The bathrooms themselves are beautiful and each is unique.
We loved our chef dinners, especially our Wednesday pizza nights. The original pizza oven was fired up and the smell of the woodsmoke travelled to us in the loggia as we anticipated the arrival of the first round of pizzas.
When we asked for something that we though was missing, it was provided. For example, the pool area had no tables for a drink or a book. Several days later, four tables arrived for this purpose. We very much appreciated that.
Improvements: The villa was missing a few things that would be helpful. Perhaps the owner would consider added a few more tools for those of us who love to cook. There are two ovens with amazing features that inspire us home cooks, but we were missing things like measuring utensils. Maybe they can have one of their chefs who come have a thorough check and make suggestions. The villa driveway. is difficult to find. Maybe a sign is a good idea."
