  • Dear Robert, We enjoyed every minute of our Tuscan vacation. You and your wonderful staff anticipated our every need. The pride you all take in making this such a special week was evident in the freshly prepared food and it’s presentation, the ever flowing wine, and the friendliness of everyone associated with Villa Stefano. Thank you for the special live music at the Villa party. We will always have memories of dancing in the moonlight with our friends.

  • Robert, I do not know enough superlatives to describe my feelings for this past week, this has been the trip of a lifetime. From the villa, the staff, the chefs, the villa owners, the food (Oh my God!), the excursions, the people of Italy, you hosting, the entertainment (what a voice), everything was a 12 on a scale of 10. We can never thank you enough, your attention to detail is unmatched. Molto, molta bene!!! Mille grazie!!!

  • The Tuscany Dream vacation was everything and more that we couldn’t imagine. The experience was wonderful, delightful, and magical. The food amazing, wine delicious and the setting majestic. The town visits were magnificent, charming, inviting. Most inspiring were the people… friendly, smiling, patient, helpful, talented and heartfelt. Which brings us to you, Robert, beginning with you – it was a wonderful experience, your passion and love were heartfelt throughout. Bravo!

The food and wine has been amazing from start to finish. Variety at every course. The villa itself is so beautiful with incredible vistas. I always looked forward to the ambiance of our every dinner under the stars. The guides and tours and all the people you have assisting you are lovely. I feel so fortunate to have met such wonderful people, that I know I’ll maintain relationships with.

  • Robert, Frannie and the most magnificent staff, Thank you so much for a perfect week. On every level this was a week to remember forever. The food, the tours, the guides, the hot air balloons, the history- everything was perfect! Mostly though we will remember this enchanting villa in this magical countryside. All of our senses were engaged all of the time. Your hospitality embraced us, your food nourished us, and the beautiful Italian people loved us at a deep soul level. You did a beautiful job, we are honored to be a part of it!
