Casa Manilo sits high in the Tuscan hills above Vaiano, wrapped in gardens and private woodland, with sweeping panoramic views south-west over the valley. Our covered terrace is where guests linger longest: morning coffee, lazy lunches, candlelit dinners, and sunsets that never disappoint. A private pool (June 1–Sept 15) is all yours alone. Pets welcome, self check-in, and a host who’s always around if you need anything, though happy to disappear completely if privacy is what you’re after.

The space
Three bedrooms, one bathroom with both shower and tub, a bright living-dining room, a full kitchen, and — the heart of the house — our covered terrace, fully equipped for outdoor living. Everything here is built for slow mornings and long dinners with a view.

Guest access
The property is split into two independent apartments with separate entrances and parking. Your apartment, the surrounding gardens, and the terrace are exclusively yours. We live just below and are always available if you need us — but if privacy is what you came for, you may not see us at all. The pool (June 1–Sept 15) is for your use only.

Other things to note
• Barbecue available on request — just let us know when booking.
• Large outdoor dining table on the covered terrace, perfect for breakfast and dinners.
• Hiking trails start right from the property.
• Home cooking classes and custom dinner available with Erika, a local home cook.

A bit about the house
Casa Manilo is the house I grew up in — it still carries the warmth of the family who built it, and sharing it is the best way I know to keep that alive.

My work: Employee
Casa Manilo is where I grew up. When my parents passed, this place revealed all its magic — a place deeply steeped in years of love, joy, sacrifice, and laughter. Sharing it with my guests is the best way I know to honor them.
