Thanks to the know-how gained about 30 years ago with the company Cuendet, the same group of people who gave birth in 2010 to "Geco" (original experience in the field of Revenue Management) and the hotel network "Gecohotels - Chosen by Travellers", has decided, using a powerful technological platform, to create a department dedicated to vacation homes. Geco Vacation Rentals offers over 500 units including: apartments, timeshares and villas all over Italy.

The Locanda di Alberi is an 18th century historic villa (mq. 300) restored with great care, located north of Florence on the green slopes of Mugello in a peaceful position. At guests' disposal there is a garden ( sq.m. 2,500) equipped for outdoor dining and a swimming pool (7 m x4 m; h 1.30). The villa is ideal as a starting point for excursions on foot, by bicycle or mountain-bike all around the property. The housekeeper, who lives next to the villa, is at guests' service for quick lunches or typical dinners, upon request and payment (from a minimum of 15 euro per person to a maximum of 45 euro depending on the menu chosen). The villadoes not have a kitchen. Breakfast to be eaten in the room or in the dining room, daily tidying of rooms and bathrooms and final cleanings are included in the rental price. Washing machine and dryer are on request. The property is 4 km far from Borgo San Lorenzo, for shopping of all kinds, tennis, railway station, 9 km far from the Mugello racetrack, 14 km from the Poggio dei Medici Golf Club in Scarperia, 18 km far from the A1 motorway, 24 Km far from Florence.
