THE VILLA CRISTOFANO is a lovely independent two floor villa set on the outskirts of Florence, that can comfortably accommodate up to 6 guests. Surrounded by exquisite peaceful gardens, the villa is positioned only 15 minutes by car from Florence’s historical centre. The grounds are private, with the only other building nearby being the villa of the very discreet owner. Villa Cristofano is meticulously decorated with great style using only high-end quality materials and is perfect for those guests seeking countryside tranquility and convenient access to Florence. The area where the villa is located is very well serviced with stores and restaurants for when you prefer not to drive to Florence.
The contemporary style of the villa interiors is a crowd pleaser. The white painted beamed ceiling, the exposed glass stairs and the soft-coloured upholstered furnishings transmit a peaceful and tranquil feel to the living room. Blond wooden floors and the marble fireplace add warmth to the relaxed elegance of this great room. Natural light floods the space through two wall-to-ceiling French doors creating an inviting and welcoming ambiance. Modern and antique furnishings, wisely blended, tie the room together creating a great space for entertaining or enjoying some quiet time. A wide sliding door connects the well-equipped kitchen to the living room.

“Like your own private 5 star boutique hotel! Magnificent. You will not be disappointed”
This house is everything it looks in the pictures and more, the layout around the infinity pool and interior design are second to none but the view from every room is what really makes this house so special. My family and I wanted to stay another week (if not indefinitely!) and the agents for the property are more than helpful to cater to any needs. The main town of St James is close as are all the top restaurants on the island. You will have everything you need here to make the perfect holiday, I know we will be making a re-booking! 5 of 5 stars

I am not entirely sure I want to share this gem with anyone else
First off this is the first time I have bothered to review a holiday accommodation and secondly I am not entirely sure I want to share this gem with anyone else. But in the spirit in which we were received by the most gracious hosts of THE PLANTATION I feel duty bound to take the time to give credit where it is due.
The property itself is of course stunning. Look at the pictures. It does not disappoint in the flesh and nor is it photographed omitting noisy neighbours or ugly views. Secluded, subtle and an oasis of peaceful calm. Most previous reviews mention the fireflies on the lawn of an evening. I now understand why. Impossible to put into words or indeed film or photograph. What most don’t mention is the incredible calm of early morning there.
Good architectural fore thought meant my family of five ‘lived’ easily in this space. The space works very well. Location wise very convenient for Merida and the week barely gave us time to scratch the surface of all the sites within day trip distance. Utterly genuine honest hosts who are as enthused by the houses as we were. A rare find and a true ‘keeper’.

Words can not describe the luxury and relaxation that is awaiting you at THE RANCH
I went on a girls trip to Merida and this home exceeded our expectations. The property and accommodations were exceptional. The home is beautiful and well maintained with secret treasures all over the property. After spending the day sipping margaritas by the pool we would move to the roof where we could watch the sunset or out onto the lush property to watch the fireflies flicker with breath-taking beauty. I highly recommend this property - you will have an unforgettable experience!
