Beautiful location with friendly staff, but the stay was dissapointing.
Pros:

An idyllic place surrounded by beautiful nature and wonderful views. The atmosphere is peaceful and relaxing, ideal for those looking to unwind. The staff is very welcoming, helpful, and genuinely friendly—especially Gaia, who showed great care for the guests' comfort.
In our personal opinion, the location is stunning and the nature around is perfect for a calm and grounded stay.

Cons:

Our stay did not fully meet our personal expectations due to the condition of the bathroom facilities, not much varierty of the food for breakfast (mostly homemade cakes and jams were offered; we asked for eggs and cheese for breakfast and were served it, but in our opinion it should be available without guests asking), and some additional charges we were not informed about in advance (charges for the pool towels, which were offered by owner more as a sign of " cortesy" and we were not informed about rent cost - small amount, but still would be nice to be informed about cost of rent). The ladder to get in/our of the pool was almost broken which made it difficult for us to use the pool.

Poggio al sole is a little piece of heaven.
Pros:

Breakfast was delicious, homemade, good variety. Breakfast room was very pretty.
Staff was very kind and helpful. (Limited English.)
Room was lovely and view was second to none!

Cons:

Breakfast cost extra. We weren't expecting that but may have missed it on website.
Transportation is difficult if you don't have a car. Iole was wonderful though and gave us a ride to the Piazza to get the bus.

Wonderful experience
Pros:

Wonderful place just close to Florence. Amazing view. This is absolutely the best place to relax, stay in the nice swimming pool with the view, tasting wine. Super cute and romantic place. We have love the room Ginestra. The madame was really kind and help us in everything. She also made a big explication of things to do. Best trattoria close to have dinner.

Quality time near Florence
Pros:

Waking up to a great breakfast, making a short drive to Florence, spending all day there, returning to enjoy the pool with views, dining at the nextdoor Trattoria La Casa del Prosciutto, relaxing in well decorated clean airy room, turning off air con and enjoying the fresh hillside breeze overnight. All helped by the very kind owners, thank you!

Cons:

Slippery floor in the bathroom

Very well kept Agriturismo, with amazing views, as long as you are willing to drive a little extra.
Pros:

Amazing views and very quiet place, in the middle of nowhere. Enjoyed the pool and the lawn area too. Easy parking on site. Breakfast was very good.

Cons:

Towels were not changed and there was not enough bath soap for 2 nights stay. Beds could be more comfy too for the price on pays. Finally, the location is 15min uphill from Fiesole - not an issue, but we were under the impression that it would be closer.
