Tuscany villa rental company
I am trying to rent a 6+ bedroom in Tuscany for 3 weeks. I am trying to find a reputable company to use. It is very scary to spend that much money not really sure you are getting what you think you are getting. I've been looking at Tuscany Now & More and WIMCO. Does anyone have any experience with either of these companies? Or recommendations on other companies? Does anyone have the name of a villa I should check out. I will be there for 3 weeks in June. Bedrooms must have A/C and ensuite bathrooms. I want a cook and do some cooking classes. My budget for the 3 weeks is $20,0000 -25,000. I'd love some help!!

Tuscan House
In response to your inquiry regarding Tuscany Now and More, I would encourage you to look elsewhere. Last summer, my husband and I rented a small house through that company and had a really bad experience. The company took no responsibility for a house not ready for rentals and we paid the price.
Instead, I recommend a different company, Tuscan House. Owing to the pandemic, their listings aren't as robust as they had been prior to, but are still excellent. Our experience with Zak, one of the two co-owners of the site, was terrific. He is honest and resourceful. He was a terrific guide and helped us choose a house to which we returned the following summer.

The house we rented is no longer listed on the Tuscan House website. Our rentals of that house, the name of which escapes me at the moment but it was located in Cetona, occurred the summer prior to the onset of the pandemic.
The website now asks potential clients to contact owners directly. You might consider instead writing directly to Zak. He is really very considerate and could potentially be quite helpful about your selection.

We also were apprehensive about renting, wondering if the website was legitimate. One we found said a celebrity had stayed with them. I went to the celebrity’s website and found photos and a lot of praise for the company I had contacted. They had rented multiple properties for their staff while filming a show.
The properties they list are only offered by them. Top properties and service.

We have referred several friends to them as well.
