“Agriturismo Brolio Quinto is a slice of Tuscan paradise
My fiancé and I were searching for a destination in Italy to hold a small ceremony and celebration for our wedding. We are fortunate to have found Giovanna’s beautiful property. Ten of us spent a week at the property and had the trip of a lifetime. The property was spacious, comfortable, clean, and well equipped. We rented a car per Giovanna’s recommendation to access the nearby locations (Cortona, Valdichiana, and much more). The nearby town Castiglion Fiorentino was beautiful to sightsee, and had incredible restaurants. It had multiple supermarkets that made it easy to pick up food to cook in the indoor and outdoor kitchens. The train station from Castiglion Fiorentino is convenient and provides connections to Florence and Rome. This property is the PERFECT place to bring a group of friends/family to enjoy time with one another, but is also large enough to space yourselves out and not feel cramped. Giovanna helped to make our week so special. She got us in touch with an amazing group of chefs who brought us through an unforgettable cooking class. She also connected us with a photographer and DJ for our wedding ceremony that made it a night to remember. The chefs went out of their way to adapt their recipes for gluten and nut sensitive guests too. Giovanna makes magic happen, and her help and recommendations provided for an amazing vacation experience for our family that made our wedding unforgettable. We plan to come back soon. Thank you, Super Giovi!”

“Perfect Tuscan Abode For a Large Family
Giovanna’s property was perfect for my family & I’s 5 day trip in the Tuscan countryside. We were a family of 10 with a baby & our dog & the property was ideally suited for us. There was something for everyone- whether you’d like to spend your days lounging by the pool on the property or exploring nearby towns- all is readily accessible. The best part of staying at Brolio Quinto is Giovanna herself- she was a wonderful host & assisted in arranging a private dinner for my dad’s birthday. We also adored all of her dogs- they were the sweetest!”

Gorgeous Property
Eleven of us stayed at Giovanna's property for a week. This included two thirty-somethings, one two year old and 8 sixty-somethings. We had an amazing stay. The property is everything you would hope Tuscany to be. There are so many places both indoors and out to sit, read a book, or have a glass of wine. Giovanna was a fantastic and responsive host, available whenever we needed her. She made recommendations for local restaurants and also booked one for us that was perfect. She also helped us connect to a chef who cooked two incredible dinners for us. I did learn that in Tuscany, unless you plan ahead, it is very hard to get local transportation. In the future I would rent a car to make things easier. Giovanna did everything she could to help us food shop and was so lovely. We had a great time and brought home some everlasting memories”

“This villa is beyond perfection and showcases all there is to love about Tuscany--the people, the countryside, and the lifestyle...
My family (7 adults) can't recommend this villa enough and are truly thankful to Giovanna for hosting us. We all feel that our stay at her villa was something truly Italian that we could not have experienced anywhere else in the world.
Thank you Giovanna, we hope to return!”

“Serene and magical! Tuscany at its best! Giovanna could not be a more hospitable and welcoming Host. A true Tuscan experience. The villa is absolutely stunning and so very comfortable. Giovanna provides everything you could need. We felt as if we’ve walked into a home away from home, all prepared and awaiting our arrival.
