Magnificent th century villa, a few kilometres from the historic centre. Villa Gamberaia and its Italian-style gardens are backed to offer a beautiful panorama of Florence. Finish the city, place in the countryside! Yet the doors of the city tend to the hosts. Villa Gamberaia is known for its magnificent gardens.

Posizione fantastica in mezzo al verde. Ultimo tratto di strada molto stretto a doppio senso. Un luogo incantato. Bello

Amazing wedding venue with great views overlooking Florence.

I was in this horror villa for about 1 week as a guest at a wedding, I had to wait 30 minutes in front of the gate until the housekeeper opened the gate, I then had to move my car immediately, driving onto the property is forbidden or costs money 500 euros, I just find it absurd, so that guests can also be treated. There are much nicer event locations nearby.

Our visit to Villa Gamberaia was incredibly disappointing. My fiance, his parents, my parents and myself all came to Villa Gamberaia to visit it for our wedding in 2025. We traveled from the UK and the USA for a few days to Italy to look at venues but were greeted horribly from Villa Gamberaia and their staff there. All of the negative reviews about this place are true so steer clear!
The Villa manager, who was supposed to give us the tour and discuss our 2025 wedding, failed to show up without any prior notice. Instead, we were left in the hands of a housekeeper who rushed us through the tour, displaying a lack of professionalism and courtesy to people who have traveled from abroad and taken time to visit their place. It would have been fine if the manager had told us or our wedding planners that she wasn't going to be there, but instead she just didn't show and forced an inadequate staff member to show 6 of us around the Villa. It's such a shame because the Villa itself has beautiful views but that was quickly forgotten with the horrible treatment we received.
At first the housekeeper told us that we couldn't see the rooms for our guests to stay in or the room where the party would be in. How are we suppose to spend thousands of euros at a wedding venue if we can't even see the rooms where we would have the event? Eventually, she let us see the room after our wedding planner repeatedly asked on the tour. She quickly pushed us through and barely answered any of our questions. This left us feeling undervalued as potential clients who traveled from abroad and took time out of our holiday to come to the Villa.
To top off the rushed and poorly managed wedding tour, the housekeeper then told us that we had to move our cars at the Villa and that we had to leave.. immediately!! We were only there for only 30 minutes at this time and then were basically pushed our and were greeted at our car with a man screaming at us to leave. I can't imagine what it would be like for our guests if they decided to drive to the wedding. An absolute disaster!!!
We had high hopes for this venue, but unfortunately, this experience has cast a shadow over what could have been a joyous occasion. This was one of our top venues based on photographs but the management destroyed the option to ever have our wedding here. I can't imagine how they would treat us on the happiest day of our lives if they were totally rude and disrespectful just on a 30 minute tour visit!
There are so many other beautiful venues around this area that treated us so kindly that our couples should look at instead of this one. I highly suggest doing your research and trusting in negative reviews like this!
