Tuscan Perfection
Have you ever felt that you were at home when you knew you weren't ? That's the feeling we had when we stayed with Cate at her family home for two weeks. The property is absolutely exquisite. Every view is a painted picture. The house has lots of nooks and crannies for people to just relax. And her family was there at a moments notice if we needed anything. Cecilia, Cate sister is a spectacular chef, We ordered breakfast every morning and it was set up beautifully and certainly had more food than we could even consider consuming. It Included homemade pastries that she and her mother made.She made us dinner on a few nights and the food was spectacular. The entire family works hard to make sure that every detail is taken care of. They love their house and they love their guests, I am looking forward to coming back again because there's always something to look at or someplace to go when you are in Tuscany . The location of the house Is perfect. You are in the country, yet you can be in Florence in a very short time. It is a perfect place to relax and enjoy the countryside or head out on an adventure

Friends on Italian vacation!
Our group of 10 just checked out of the villa today. Five couples from the USA and we were all extremely pleased with our accommodations and time spent in the region of Impruneta. Our hostess, Caterina and her family were responsive to every question whether it was local restaurants, local tours of pottery, specific Florence Shopping options, parking or train schedules. We utilized almost every area of the Villa specifically the clean and refreshing swimming pool, ping pong table and well equipped kitchen. We planned far in advance and so glad we chose this villa carefully because it was worth the wait! Thank you again for sharing your beautiful home for a week we will not forget.

My wife and two children ages 10 and 13 enjoyed three restful nights at Cate's Wonderful family property. Comfortable bedrooms, quiet surroundings, plenty of shade and a refreshing pool Helped us enjoy the Tuscan countryside and rejuvenate our bodies as we overcame jet lag from our first Italian vacation as a family We enjoyed a wonderful cooking class with Chef Valentina! We had a wonderful meal prepared upon our arrival at the Villa as well! We took the short walk to town on two separate evenings for gelato and pizza… It was amazing! Can't say enough about our host. Cate!!!! You were awesome. Anything we needed, you were willing and able to provide. We can't wait to come back again and stay longer. We feel like we just scratched the surface of this beautiful part of Tuscany and the villa was perfect for our families needs. Caio!!

The Perfect Stay in Tuscany
Our family stayed at this wonderful Tuscan house for 8 days in August 2024. Our host Caterina, and her team, have been very responsive, both before and during our stay. The house has been in Caterina’s family for generations, so they show a great deal of care for both the house and their guests. The house is located near the town square of Impruneta, so very conveniently located with groceries and restaurant options nearby, and very central to Tuscany so most visit-worthy locations are at a reasonable driving distance. The pool – large and well maintained – was very useful, as there was a heat wave during our stay. Caterina was also very helpful with booking winery tours and arranging transportation; she knows the region very well, and it shows in her recommendations. Beyond the large size of the property, and the great team managing our stay, there were two features/services that greatly enhanced our stay, and which I highly recommend to any guest staying at the house: - Pizza dinner; we had a wonderful pizza making crash course from a local pizza chef, using the authentic wood-burning oven in the house. We had the most wonderful pizza dinner ever. - An authentic Tuscan dinner, prepared by Caterina’s sister and their staff, which was absolutely delicious (they set-up and clear out everything, so you don’t need to lift a finger – just enjoy a great home-cooked meal). We would highly recommend this house on your next trip to Tuscany. This one gets a perfect rating from us.

Exceeded all our expectations!
I rented the villa to celebrate my fortieth birthday with my husband and three other couples (longtime friends). We could not have been more excited and impressed by the property! It is a family property that has been meticulously updated. The pool is a dream. The kitchen was wonderful and we enjoyed grilling and making meals. One night, we booked a meal made in the villa (by Caterina’s sister) and it was absolutely delicious - homemade pasta, prosciutto, wine, pork, the works! And the best dessert we had on the whole trip. So easy to get into Florence and the communication was second to none. Caterina’s wonderful mom even brought us some beautiful pastries for breakfast one morning. We also had plenty of privacy - the perfect balance. I genuinely can’t think of a single complaint. I’m hoping to go back!!!!

A great place for 13 women- family and friends- to gather and explore Tuscany from. It was an easy drive to Florence and to the Chianti villages and wineries, and the villa and grounds provided a lovely place to rest between the touring.

Wonderful 2 week stay with Friends
Thank you so much Caterina and Cecelia for a truly wonderful stay at your family’s villa. There were 11 of us and we are all so grateful for the many things you arranged for us from private transfers and tours to meals, dinner reservations, and the tour of the terra-cotta workshop. When there were problems, you took care of them as quickly as possible, and went above and beyond to make things right. You couldn’t have been kinder or more flexible when we made changes and we made many! The pizza dinner and home cooked Tuscan meal were wonderful! Cecelia is a fabulous cook! Our favorite activities were the wineries and seeing the small Tuscan hill towns. It would’ve been very difficult to see them without the private drivers you arranged. We also appreciated having a car to go into town, and the tram into Florence was very easy to get to and use. We so appreciate how hard you worked to make everything perfect! Your kindness and help with everything were so appreciated!

Tuscany Dream Villa
I can’t say enough wonderful things about our stay at this Italian gem located in Impruneta! The house itself had such a beautiful old Italian feel with all the modern comforts needed to make your stay perfect. The pool, the various outdoor dining and sitting areas allowed us to be totally emerged in the Tuscany hills. What truly makes this place special is Caterina! She did so much to be sure our first visit to Tuscany was just what we were wanting. She communicated with us well before our actual trip and all throughout. Cate booked all of our transfers, Tuscany excursions and arranged for a delicious home cooked Italian dinner right at the Villa! Our only mistake is that we didn’t stay longer.

An absolutely incredible stay!
This was such an amazing experience! Even before our stay Cate was so helpful and coordinated everything we wanted to incorporate into our trip. When we arrived to the villa, check-in was easy and Cate made sure we were comfortable. We were a family of 8 and every en-suite room felt like a completely private area. Each and every room in the house was decorated with such care and beatiful furniture. There were so many areas, both inside and outside, for everyone to relax and enjoy. The kitchen had everything we needed. The villa was clean and very well maintained, not to mention the view! The entire property was picturesque, like a storybook. The beds were super comfortable and the room darkening shutters made for a great sleep for everyone. The main town area is a 5 min drive or a 20 minute walk. We had a dinner prepared by Cate's sister, as well as a breakfast served in the villa..both were wonderful. We also had a pizza class with use of the 17th century oven in the villa, which was a highlight of the trip, so much fun! Not to mention the family wine, which everyone loved! Our only regret is not staying longer. We are all looking forward to returning to Cate, Cecilia, Angela and Paolo's family villa. Thank you so much for an incredible and unforgettable stay!

Impruneta Villa 34 Via diFabbiolle
28 October 2023 Villa Property Id 8590341 I highly recommend this Villa. Take the time to look over all the amenities it offers. This is like a home away from home. Ensuite bathrooms, indoor and outdoor dinning areas, indoor and outdoor relaxation areas, heated pool, security, full kitchen, laundry, etc. The Villa location is only about 1.3 miles from Impruneta Italy permitting one to visit via walking. Impruneta has shops, dining, grocery stores, photo opportunities etc. The secret asset to this Villa is hostess Caterina Porzio and family. She goes out of her way to provide her clients assistance be it prior to or after arrival. Need assistance with tour arrangements, transportation, suggested areas to visit, etc. just contact Caterina and it is only a text or call away. She also leaves the list of family contacts should she be unavailable. During our stay Caterina made several changes to our transportation so we could avoid rain potential. Cate’s dedication to client service and the Villa is beyond reproach. You will not be disappointed. This is a 5 STAR Villa and Caterina makes it a 5 STAR+.

This was my second stay at Caterina’s beautiful villa and this time I brought my family I cannot express in words how truly amazing this villa is and how incredibly hard working and kind Caterina and her family are From making dinner reservations to organizing drivers to winery reservations to planning entire days for us, she did it all. The home is immaculately clean, spacious enough for families, convenient to Florence and Sienna and many other villages in Tuscany Imprunetana is a 25 minute walk into town where you can find restaurants and shops. We also had an absolutely delightful cooking class which Cate also planned for us Fantastic! We stayed at the villa for 10 days and wish we could have stayed for month! Maybe next time we will.

If you are looking for a spacious house, lovingly maintained and cared for by the family that owns it, and an unbeatable view of the Tuscany hills, this is the place. The home has been owned by Caterina's family for many years and pride of ownership shows. There is plenty of space for everyone - 5 large bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, plenty of seating inside and out for gathering with your family and friends. Our group of 4 couples enjoyed coffee on the terrace every morning and wine in the late afternoon. The villa is in a perfect location to enjoy day trips to the surrounding area. Caterina is a perfect host. She was available to answer our many questions before we even arrived and also during our stay. She helped arrange transportation and tours.

We enjoyed several home cooked meals from her sister and mom.they were both adorable and the food was delicious comparable if not better than the restaurants we visited, The villa is beautiful we loved all the sitting area and the pool was great!! Have traveled in large groups several times and by far this was the best experience we've had. Cate made our week in Tuscany!!!!!!!!

Tuscan Holiday
Our sibling family of 7 from the US had an amazing stay at Villa Fabbiole in Imprunetta. Catherine Porzio, our host, was gracious & accommodating from the moment we booked our reservation and throughout our stay. Her gorgeous villa was like a step back in time and was an inviting retreat after sightseeing and navigating the busy narrow, winding roads! We enjoyed the many outdoor spaces with scenic views and the refreshing pool. We highly recommend Villa Fabbiole to anyone planning a trip to Tuscany. The Swanson Family

Heaven on Earth!
We started planning our family trip to Tuscany nearly 2 years ago. From the first time we inquired about the villa, Cate was wonderful to work with. She is just delightful! Always so helpful and caring, and giving her very best to ensure the best experience possible! The villa is breathtaking and was perfect for our needs. We enjoyed all the patios, the pool, the kitchen, the beautiful grounds and spectacular views! We loved hearing the rooster next door welcome each new day! Imprunetta is just over a mile away and we enjoyed walking into town several times for lunch, espresso martinis and, of course, gelato. We especially loved the fabulous dinners prepared and served by Cecilia, Malika and Valentina. Their meals were ‘delicioso’ and abundant, and their charming personalities made us feel more like family than guests. They truly bent over backwards to make sure our every need was not only met, but exceeded. Cate expertly arranged for our transportation to and from the villa from the train station in Florence, as well as to several wineries and a few other nearby towns ~ making sure we were picked up on time and brought back safely. We will never forget our wonderful week at the villa and look forward to returning one day bringing new friends to enjoy the unmatched beauty and hospitality! This ranks with best vacations ever!! Grazie mille, Cate❤️ John, Nita, Sam, Allison, Joseph, Kristen, Jack & Jen

Our Dream Trip
WOW! What a wonderful week we had in our Tuscan Villa. It is a truly beautiful place. This was a trip for the “girls” of our family and we couldn’t have been happier. 5 bedrooms, each with en-suite, was the perfect size for the 5 of us. Lovely Cate helped us plan our trip making arrangements for each day. She made it so easy, with lots of suggestions from which to choose, and making the arrangements for us. From the pasta making class, the Tuscan dinner, trips into Florence and San Gimignano, wine tasting, it all was great. The views from the villa are amazing. Just what you imagine when you think of Italy. This is a family affair which makes it so personal. Thank you Cate, Angela, Cecilia, and Paolo.

Our wonderful family vacation
Our original family trip was planned for 2020. As many travelers found, cancellations were frequently made. Our hostess Caterina kept in touch with me throughout this difficult time. The Villa has many lovely antiques and family possessions. Our family of 9, ages 11-78 were very comfortable with 5 air conditioned bedrooms, each with their own bath. There were many comfortable sitting areas within the Villa and outside. We decided to chose the menus offered by our hostess to enjoy several home cooked Tuscan meals so everyone could relax. We especially liked the grill night which was cooked to perfection. Chef Cecilia and Chef Milaka were very talented and efficient. The pool was in such a lovely setting. It was always clean and refreshing after a long tour day. Our hostess and her family have their hearts in this family Villa and they will help in any way they can to accommodate your requests. Grazie from our hearts to yours. Tom, Carol and Family

Charming Villa
Caterina is one of the sweetest, most accommodating, and helpful hostesses I have encountered in my travels. She is all in, goes out of her way to make her guests feel at home and is always ready to help in anyway possible by making all sorts of helpful recommendations. The rustic house is very cozy, private, well maintained, and has all of the amenities one would need. It’s in the outskirts of Florence, about 30 minutes away by car from all the hustle and bustle of the city. We enjoyed the delicious meals prepared by her sister and the pool was a wonderful way to cool off after visiting the city. We are very grateful for the opportunity to meet such a wonderful person and for being able to stay in such a charming place. Thank You!

What more can we say!!! This charming & beautiful villa was heaven for us and Caterina was our “angel” who looked out for us to assist with all of our needs & requests of which there were many (private drivers & cab transfers, rental car delivery & pick up at the villa, restaurant dinner reservations, day trip tours to local vineyards and so much more). Our family of 10 (3 generations) was excited for our 2 week stay that had been planned for 2 years & we were amazed at how beautiful the villa was. It was a dream come true & Caterina’s passion & pride for her family’s villa was so contagious it made everyone feel to a certain extent that it was our lovely home in Tuscany too! The 5 bedroom made for a most comfortable stay and the inground pool with stunning views overlooking the Tuscan countryside was fabulous & enjoyed by everyone. Caterina provided arrangements for a delicious Tuscan style in villa dinner cooked by her sister Cecilia & a wonderful brunch for our oldest son’s birthday & Caterina surprised him with a fine bottle of Tuscan wine 🍷 We had a pizza class with Valentina & Lorenzo that was so very much fun & we enjoyed our pizzas that were cooked in the villa’s ancient wood oven. We really appreciated how Caterina & Cecilia went above & beyond to ensure for special meals as one member of our family has Celiac disease which required special attention. Caterina is “THE BEST” and her villa is, quite simply, heaven on earth! GRAZIE MILLE!!! Bud & Cindy 😀
